Never forget that the X-Files had the tits to queerbait its audience with straight people
#ik by the technical definition of queerbaiting it doesn't really apply#and it's more like romantic tension#but if you replicated one of them with a man/woman to make the pairing same-sex#it would have almost the exact same dynamic as like destiel or merthur or whatever#agent scully#agent mulder#the x files#txf#dana scully#mulder and scully#mulder x scully

Normal Friend Behaviour.
[First] Prev <–-> Next
#poorly drawn mdzs#mdzs#wei wuxian#lan wangji#lan xichen#Ring ring! It's your judgment call! None of the lan brothers are there to pick it up!#Lan Xichen is so openly like 'I trust Jin Guangyao so much! Our bond is so deep! I believe in him like you believe in wwx!'#The tension! I remember not knowing how this would go because woagh the red flags for betrayal were so strong here.#Now I have spoiler brain so I mostly see the heartbreak coming but I still remember the anxiety of thinking lxc would betray lwj.#The way LXC compares his relationship to JGY is so funny to me. They aren't technically canon but...like....come on.#LXC *also* lets on that he knows LWJ has feelings for WWX. The implications are the loudest subtext I have seen.#Personally I see it as romantically one-sided on LXCs side. I think JGY knows and LXC denies his heart.#I think the tragedy is that JGY can't move past his need to make everything a game of chess to see LXC as more than an oppertunity#Here's the bigger tragedy: The one time he followed his heart...it led him to Qin-Su. Whom he loved dearly!#but...oh god was that ever a massive disaster that must have been internalized as 'following my heart is a mistake I can never make again.'#Ah - Happy Puffy Sleeves WWX debut day! We finally made it!#I'm personally a fan of the happy accident of WWX having white sleeves for this arc B*)

andrew garfield chicken shop date video of all time to ME. somehow simultaneously has the most (seemingly) romantic and natural chemistry while ALSO being the one that most blatantly acknowledges and almost criticises the pretence and orchestration fundamental to the format of the show. like it’s inherently paradoxical which makes it so FASCINATING. despite their flirting and dropping lore of their real life previous encounters (quote unquote meet cutes thanks for that one mr garfield) they also explicitly mention the facade of the show AND break the fourth wall- when he repeatedly touches the boom mic between them, and when they keep looking at the camera.
they deliver more successfully than ever on the central idea of the show while also actively deconstructing it! while breaking its established conventions! absolutely insane media experience 10/10
#the brain rot is deep i was watching it on loop last night at 1am bc i absolutely love pieces of media that play with the frame like this#one does#like king andrew garfield was pushing agianst the role the show sort of has for its guests to play whereas Amelia is like an opposing force#trying to maintain the original show dynamic#which also just builds even more delicious tension between the two of them#anYway this is all fun and games and has nothing at all to do with them actually being romantically into each other obvi I do not care at#all about that nor do i care to speculate#you can take the girl out of the media class (bc she dropped out) but ya can’t take the media class outta the girl#andrew garfield#amelia dimoldenberg#chicken shop date#andrew Garfield chicken shop date#YouTube

#witch hat tag#orufrey#just part of my modern au.... maybe this is like their 3rd meeting at age 10 or something thanks to their caretakers..#i drew the tiny arkco and felt like they looked like tiny dolls like my little sister used to play with LOL#it's like an Atelier Dreamhouse where your polly pockets can be artists btw and there's a brushbug accessory.#the baby romantic tension of crafting little worlds with our dollies and what if my agott dolly had a crush on your coco dolly..?#they will grow out of dolls and play on neopets more. Neopets is for serious kids. plus it's too sad when my doll misses your doll?#I literally have several other actual things i want to draw like proper things =_=#qifrey is good at making dramatic backstories but oru will always be like ERM..ARE THEY IN LOVE??..i love that about him#the bracelets thing in the manga..crucial oru characterisation moment..even if they played sims though it wouldnt be like#oru plans the relationships and qifrey does the house design and suchlike though he'd like it#qifrey also has a very emotional and personable mind but he thinks of like..Ooh what traumas do they have..Let that man play dnd#also qifrey has decided the dramatic villain for his polly pocket is a masked floating man btw. Of course. he resurfaces in his dnd game#*dramatic voice* Release us from our chains polly. Give into the forbidden magic and deliver us (olly: WHOA..... <3) *high voice* NO!!

Celestia on her public account ( her personal is reserved for her fandoms, to ego surf, and to be an online pathetic gothic queen)

Let's be real, without England France is a hot mess. He's one step from offing everyone and himself and poor Germany doesn't know what do do because 'isn't this what you wanted? Are you telling me that without your daily fight with England you become a maniac?' it's a whole process, the fight, the make up, the release of tensions... The poor French holds the weight of the riots on his chest he needs to let it go
Germany wants to help, but he just doesn't understand how France works. France needs England because without him, where is he going to release his unhinged energy? He's always been a bit eccentric, but now everyone else has to deal with his surplus of "passion". Maybe Germany can take him hiking to cool off (but he'd probably complain about his legs hurting).
#hetalia#forsoobado answers#anon#aph france#hws france#hetalia france#francis bonnefoy#aph england#hws england#hetalia england#arthur kirkland#aph germany#hws germany#hetalia germany#ludwig beilschmidt#fruk#but less romantic more rivalry#love the way you described it#the tension...the drama...the sabatoge...#France is just romanticizing his rivalry#meanwhile England is just like wtf no you're annoying

Thinking of Siffrin cradling Isabeau's face in his hands and whispering "My sweet little puppy"
Ok actually, I was thinking of non sexual intimacy and how they'd both like that more than actual sex and it spiraled until I got an image of Isabeau on the ground whimpering while Siffrin compliments them to death like an owner praising thier dog for being a good boy
#the kit screams!#the kit's games#in stars and time#isat siffrin#isat isabeau#isafrin#this all started cause I read a fic of monster sif eating isabeau and like#I want more stuff like that#not... not the eating. though I'm not against that. but weirdly romantic tension in horrific circumstances

shipping renkaza fucking sucks because you either get people who hate real enemies to lovers and call it toxic or pr*ship because they actually are enemies who want to kill each other instead of friends who bicker sometimes (these people are the weakest link and will not survive the winter)
or you get people who do ship it but only in the gooner dumbing-it-down-to-hardcore-porn way where they romanticize and get off to abuse and r*pe (these people are just gross sick individuals and i hope they go extinct)
and the few people who do see the emotional depth in the homoerotic minutes renkaza spent together and the potential in that for top tier doomed yaoi are few and far in between and i rarely find good fics that aren't just insanely ooc porn
#renkaza#rengoku kyojuro#akaza#akaza kny#akaza hakuji#rengoku kny#kimetsu no yaiba#demon slayer#rengoku x akaza#akaza x rengoku#maybe controversial but im so sick#the potential is RIGHT THERE#i need more in character fics that take place in a setting where rengoku lives#like what if akaza keeps tracking down rengoku to fight again but rengoku is stubborn to the end#and idk maybe the demon slayer corps tries to take advantage of the upper moons fatuation to get more info#so rengoku has to play along instead of killing him#MAYBE#instead of rengoku falling in love with akaza in the cliche romantic doki doki way#its rengoku building a sick understanding of akaza that goes against his better judgement and is against his will#maybe the forced cooperation on his end is affecting both of them in ways that challenge their worldview#i want the layers of this to be deep#i want to see their relationship develop in a complicated way#i want tension#i want slowburn#i want real doomed yaoi#is that too much to ask for#akaren

Having an unhealthy affection for your enemy is something I see in them. Enemies with a situation ship but neither want to admit that. Also Zadavia cause I love her 💖
#loonatics unleashed#loonatics fanart#loonatics oc#I sometimes imagine part of their tension is romantic#but in a way where these two constantly play cat and mouse with eachother#or maybe cat and bunny…#Ace would be such a bottom he just gives off that energy no matter who draws him and what they change in his design#ace bunny#Ace is my wife in every way except physical#I love him so much this feels more like yumeshipping if anything…#I just want to hug him and kiss him and give him comfort

here's a saimota piece I did for @maizonoapologist for the kaito gift exchange!!! <333
there's a part two to this gift as well cause I thought about a saihoshimota au where shuichi and ryoma are fishermen and kaito's a mermaid, and doodled a bit about it heheh
#art by me#ndrv3#kaito gift exchange#kaito momota#shuichi saihara#saimota#ryoma hoshi#saihoshimota#hjdgjjkfd there were a few more doodles i wanted to include to explain more about the au i suddenly thought of jfdgfgfd#imagine with me that ryoma and kaito have some background as amicably separated exes who probably still have some romantic tension#and shuichi as the newcomer hire likes both of them#and that mermaid kaito still loves the stars and wants to know more about them...and shuichi lets him borrow a telescope for a bit...aheem#anyway tHIS WAS SUPER FUN TO DRAW HOPE U LIKE IT MOTS!!! ;;;w;;

Honestly I dont even think the pec massages are consciously gay. They're both just so used to their own little macdennis world that all the homoerotic shit reads as platonic to them until someone from the outside sees it. Just like how before Mac came out, they used to jack it together, but it was just a bro thing to do and they liked it. Mac massaged Dennis' pecs because it's a bro thing to do and they liked it. In the same exact vein of "two codependent losers who can't do anything separate" is just because they like spending time with each other and it feels good. They wouldn't read more into it because they like it and it feels good and they both chase 'feeling good'. I believe this is still the train of thought even after Mac's come out. I don't think Dennis is any more aware of it than Mac is. I'm a firm believer that everyone in the gang operates at the same mental capacity tbh
#i believe mac is just as smart as dennis and dennis is just as dumb as mac#(especially exemplified in the pec massage reveal ep)#i dont think this takes away the fun of the romantic/erotic tension present in those moments tho#like obviously its there. but its always kinda there and thats what also makes it easier to normalize?#idk let me know what yall think pls#im just always gonna be wary of anything that allows any of them grace in the realm of being more self self aware than the others#i dont think dennis is more self aware than any if them. he just reacts differently to it#i can go on but. i wont. for now#specialtysacrifice og#macden#iasip#its always sunny#mac meta#? maybe

💗🏥 Shuake Week- Day 6 - Wound Tending 🏥💗
I've always really liked the idea of goro waking up after the engine room with a bullet wound in the chest. he miraculously survives, and akira has to take him in and tend to him, while hiding him from shido's men😳💦
(also yes, goro is wearing akira's pj pants😌💞)
#shuakeweek2024#shuake#goro akechi#akira kurusu#persona 5#p5#maybe i should have drawn goro more grumpy XD#he seems like the type that would be tricky to take care of#like a stray kitten#he's just never had anyone care for him since his mother🥺🥺#also i drew him with his hair pushed back if you cant tell ahsjdkl#i also wanted to give this romantic lighting but i struggled with it a bit#i got carried away with coloring and forgot about lighting orz#oh well lol#i really wanna read a fic with this premise#where goro has to lay low at akira's place for a little while to avoid shido knowing hes still alive#where they have to coexist and they still have all of their unresolved tension#also- there was only one bed????#p l e a s e#if i could write i would do it so fast#maybe ill draw more for this#we'll see#♡♡♡♡♡♡#shitty#(< that's my art tag)

Tumblr doesn't understand the meaning of canon, really and truly
#gopher rambles#now its also a concept with more nuance than you'd think#but specifically for shipping? canon is 'these two characters end up in a explicitly non platonic relationship in the source material'#otherwise you would say 'its teased' 'its one sided' 'they have romantic tension' 'they lampshade a popular pairing' or something like that#stop telling me 'oh canon wlw in (media) then showing me a pairing that is actually just teased#because ive seen that four or five times#stop saying '(ship I like) is canon!' when I DAMN WELL know it isn't explicitly so#this is a problem for no one else but me. however. im allowed to be a bitter bitch every now and then
