Ohhh
Just saw someone(s) being rude about Vil's night cap and i just ?????
Like i don't really care if you don't like the style BUT it feels really really off if you're mad about that night cap, as an article itself.
So like, do some of y'all just straight up don't know about silk scarves for hair? Silk bonnet, silk scarves, silk wraps, silk durags?
Like some of y'all don't seem to know about the concept of bonnets
What he's wearing is actually a nice standard style of silk night wrap. I've seen friends wear styles like that, my neighbor wears that, people wear that type of thing for their nightly routine. To protect their hair
Idk it just feels very very icky that something as innocent as a silk night bonnet/silk night wrap is catching SUCH flack from some of y'all, especially considering that that style is pretty common amongst African Americans, Puerto Ricans and also common for literally anyone with curly wavy hair who is trying to make sure it doesn't get dried out or damaged. Like I've known people who wear that, i know friends who wear that, i know neighbors who wear that, i know family who wear that.
I only feel like it's icky because it's not like people are pointing out their dislike of the coloration, the patterning, perhaps even the tying method. They're getting mad about the fact that Mr. Model, Mr. "I have a 12 step routine for my face alone", the World Class model Vil Schoenheit, is using a silk wrap to protect his hair during his sleep. Like yeah .. idk man, it's fitting. It makes sense. Also he looks fine? His clothes are comfy? His shirt is loose and comfy and he put his hair up. He's going to bed, excuse him for not putting on a corset and heels. Not only that they're getting mad about a silk scarf, a silk wrap, that man is wearing a silk durag for the sake of his hair and it does feel icky that some of y'all decided that it's garbo???
I don't have the brain energy to truly get into it but like it's just a silk wrap and some of y'all are being rude and weird (and even outright confused) about a very normal article to wear for hair care
Is literally just a relatively standard satin silk wrap, a bonnet


Idk The flack he's getting just feels different from the other hat sleepers, where it was just comparisons to like scrooge or stock photo old man pjs, whereas vil is getting some folks acting affronted. I think i would get if you made some meme comparisons (that one meme where someone in a bonnet is explaining something to someone wrapped up in bed)
It's not that huge of deal, and i only made this to vent, i refuse to actually get dragged into any of it. You're entitled to your opinion, especially for fictional characters.
Love Vil Schoenheit, they could never make me hate you and i like that he wears something i am quite familiar with (will say that the vibes with that fit are very early riser, blasting music at 6 am while loudly making breakfast and if you sass him when he asks you to set the table he tries to hit you with a chancla, idk vil is a chancla wielder in my heart)
Love you vil

Notifications for this post are OFF cause this is more so me venting about some folks being weird about his night wrap and there's no fandom worth any type of genuine drama about fictional blorbos, I'm not wasting my oxygen my calories and moments of my actual life getting roped into any fandom engagement that doesn't give me fulfillment. Blorbo defending? Fulfilling. Ranting about fic ideas and analyzing fave media? Fulfilling. Arguing with strangers? Beefing with folks over fictional characters? Not fulfilling. Thus i make separate post
#(It also feels off-putting that it's the article itself#an article that catches flack because of stereotypes from bigotry)#that is that article that is catching flack on vil and people are calling it a plastic bag etc#fiden rants#twister wonderland rant#twisted wonderland#vil schoenheit#notifications are OFF
