Say what you want abt s2 but a character getting cursed to be straight is the funniest fucking concept ever, and by Elphaba none the less

That moment, when you abandon a blog for almost a year and then return with a low quality 

[shifting-worlds]

I need to know for reasons.

[ducky-the-mucky]

Amir, grappling with the fact that in just a few days he’ll have to take the life of someone no older than him, talking to his guide that supposedly knows the forest inside and out: Let’s keep this as professional and as impersonal as possible.

Rupert, trying to fake-it-til-you-make-it his way through being a guide in a forest he knows nothing about, for a guy who wants to kill him for no apparent reason: Uh huh, uh huh, sure— So what’s your favorite color?

The Two Princes OC AU Animatic! [WIP]

I fear I might be one of the 3 people in the TTP fandom … guys … IS ANYONE THERE?! 😭

I’m absolutely obsessed with Rupert and Amir, I have been since 2022. Those two are almost identical to my boys Jacob and Noah … so let’s mix it up !!! This is my 3rd time making an animatic to this exact audio :) maybe I will post the comparisons soon! Also please for the love of GOD can we have a TTP fandom revival??? I NEED TO SHARE THE BRAINROT !!! RRRAAAAHHHH

what.

(i found an art style good for mini comics so like lmk if u want me to do more maybe idk)

[anotherttpfanaccount]

it'd be kinda funny and cute if Rupert and Amir didn't confess their feelings for each other before getting engaged // married, so it's supposedly arranged, according to them, but literally everyone else knows they've got it bad.

[antispopausandstuff]

when you get into a series and then stupid shit happens.

.

so, i got into a podcast from 2019 called 'The Two Princes', and i love it. it's very charming, basically like a show in audio form, and full of queer. listen to it frequently, got into the tags on my socials, found some fanart and fics and a bit of inspiration.

but during my searches of fanart, i came across two things.

people calling the main relationship ( rupert x amir ) an EtL

some people comparing it to c//a

both of these severely bothered me, and i'm gonna explain why.

for the first one, it's very simple. rupert and amir were not really enemies, in terms of their actual dynamic. according to this red herring of a prophecy, though, they are 'meant' to be enemies.

however, rupert lies about not being the prince of the west ( amir is prince of the east ), saying he's a thief, that his name is fitz, and that he wants nothing to do with his kingdom. this isn't because he holds any ill-will to his own kingdom, but because the east and the west are hostile and he didn't wanna get killed by amir leaving him behind in the forest.

so, their actual dynamic was more of 'unfriendly strangers to friends to lovers'. because amir was a bit uppity and micromanaged, while rupert was more soft(?) and tended to overreact // overly panic. that, and the span of the first season is 3 days. you can't really go from being enemies to lovers in 3 days. in most cases, i guess.

anyway, moving onto the even more frustrating point.

the princes are nothing like catra and adora. absolutely nothing alike. not even a little.

i'm guessing part of the reason is because amir asks rupert to stay. but the context of that situation vs catra repeatedly demanding asking adora to stay is entirely different.

amir asks rupert to stay because, despite being prickly, rupert saved his life and continued being kind to him. he doesn't ask him to stay because of any self-importance, or because he wants rupert to do dirty work, or for any other reason but because amir likes him and wants them to be friends.

that is entirely different from why catra kept demanding asking adora to stay. she kept asking because she couldn't take no for an answer. because adora's ideals didn't align with hers. because she wanted adora for herself, and took any other options as a personal attack.

and another reason this comparison exists, i'm guessing, is because of the whole "they saved the world // universe // kingdom // wtv by kissing and being gay", which. that's still. no. but okay.

the prophecy in 'The Two Princes' is a red herring because it's misleading. it's not intending to be, but it is. everyone thought it meant that the two princes would fight to the death and one kingdom would rule over, when it actually meant for one kingdom to unite the east and west.

and amir and rupert figured that out by kissing and later on deciding to get married ( that's a general way of saying it, but it's cute, aight? they're very cute ).

in the final episode of spop, there was no actual reason or explanation for why any of that happened. it just happened because the show wanted it to.

why did a viral infection go away the moment catra kissed adora? THE FUCK IF WE KNOW!

why did that activate she-ra? 'CAUSE- LOVE! EVEN THOUGH THEY'RE SISTERS, BUT WHATEVER!

why did the heart get destroyed by that? WHO CARES? WE DON'T!

final assumed reason is, again, because of the whole EtL thing.

like i said, 'The Two Princes' is not an EtL story.

and spop was never supposed to be an EtL story. but it is one, so there's that.

anyway, the writing isn't perfect, but if you like podcasts and wanna hear a cheesy-ass queer show with a disaster gay prince, disaster bi prince, a badass lesbian knight, a bi diva, a feral gay twink, a pathetic flirty gay twink, and a dragon and a dog, then give it a listen.

and there's a goat unicorn.

Kinda surprised this podcast has so little fandom, Here’s my sorry excuse of a fanart… (Still not good at digital art haha)

I love these two sm :]

[that-bi-fan]

because people keep liking and reblogging and replying to the post saying they wished they could've voted

a year later, let's have a redo.

[missarafdraw]

I did a quick thing

If Rupert and Chad was caught after stealing the unicorn head

[fluctuating-fanby]

"Hi. Prince Rupert the First. Of the West. Nice to meet you. And you’re…the other prince of the Prophecy, aren’t you?"

"...that’s it?! You’re just going to introduce yourself, just like that? No lies or deceit about your identity? No knife in my back while you do it? No tricking me into a pit? What kind of a rival are you?"

Or: the one where Rupert succeeds in stealing the Forbidden Book, doesn’t lie to Amir when they first meet, and befriends the guy destined to kill him through sheer willpower.

My canon-divergent The Two Princes fic Veritas is back with a new chapter! To the three people who are still here, I hope this was worth the wait. More chapters to come, hopefully!

Excerpt from the latest chapter under the cut:

"The Kingdom of the East is thriving, despite the aftermath of our fathers' war. It will take more than a cursed Forest to destroy us," Amir says sharply.

"Sorry. I didn't mean to insinuate anything." A beat. "...my kingdom's not doing much better, really."

"That is why it is of the utmost importance that we are here, Prince Rupert."
