hey so at the time of posting this i hadn't seen the video of the co-creator being all "why can't men just be friends :((( why do close male relationships have 2 b romantic :(((" (which is an insane thing to say seemingly unprompted in a world with rampant homophobia btw, especially directed at A SPECIFIC PART OF UR OWN FANDOM ???) and i just wanna make it clear that i do not care! impact over intent! death of the author! the story is out of your hands and up for personal interpretation the second you release it publicly! you can't write two men into what is very blatantly a romantic storyline and then complain that people ~won't let men be friends~! men are allowed to be platonic friends, we are in fact PUNISHED for being anything more than that, pls for the love of god get a grip

"the arcane fandom will never understand brotherly love..." my brother in christ i am the middle child. i have not had a waking moment where i wasn't intimately aware of platonic/sibling affection and how it functions. those motherfuckers were GAY
