Anna Diop as Starfire

Titans 4.01: Lex Luthor

[strangerambeau]

I will never get over the fact that Anna Diop played Starfire. I will be on my deathbed telling my grandchildren about AnnaKory. She’s PERFECT

[westidia]

[beas-mind]

kinda need a AnnaKory tyrant edit….

[crownedcams]

not to reminisce on titans but its genuinely crazy how anna diop revitalized starfire's image like i was redoing tags from years ago and i genuinely feel the 03 cartoon starfire is so vastly different and lesser than annakory like her impact is unmatched

me bc i found someone who doesn't literally pray on my downfall bc i dont ship garchel

Oh, don't worry! You're safe here. You have definitely found the small corner of the fandom (me and my moots) where it's all bi Gar and lesbian Rachel, all the time.

Like it sucks that other people in the fandom have to reduce them down to a potential romantic relationship - especially when their friendship is so great. They have such an instant connection, they make each other feel safe - and that doesn't have to be romantic.

And they spend so much of the show apart from each other, developing as separate characters in order to really shine. It shows such an intense heteronormativity that them doing things like holding hands and him putting his arm around her signifies romantic involvement when they have stated to other characters that they don't feel that way about each other. And if two guys or two girls did the same things (holding hands, putting arms around each other) it would be seen as platonic and the audience would break their necks to explain why it is just an example of friendship.

They are just friends. Let a guy and a girl exist in media and be close and exist as just best friends (without one of them being canonically gay). And to me, one of the most ick things about Garchel shippers is that they literally always reduce the characters down to just their "romantic" moments. They never talk about how much it sucked that they used Rachel (Gar's memories of Rachel) against him when he was at Cadmus, how that could have been intensely traumatizing for him.

Like - even in the later part of Season 2, when Rachel is comforting Gar about Donna's death, she wraps her arms around him in a hug and he doesn't move to hug her back, because the last time that he hugged her (in his mind) he then attacked her and brutally ripped her apart because he was fully imagining that Cadmus employee that he killed had her face. Nobody talks about how this could have affected their "romantic" relationship, they just see her hugging him after Donna's death and go "Look! Physical contact! My ship!!!"

Not to mention, one of the last times he saw her before she left the Tower, she was telling him that he wasn't good enough because all he does is 'growl' at people when there is potential danger, and then he has a horrible nightmare hallucination that probably feels so real where he brutually murders her using his powers, and from that point on the reason his powers are so restricted - aka the reason he can't turn into other animals at will/the mental block is because he is terrified of hurting the people he loves with his powers. Romantic ship or not, nobody takes the time to talk about the depth of Gar's trauma and how it affects the way he relates to the people around him.

In the eyes of the fandom, he is just an accessory.

I don't even wanna get started on the whole "Mommy Kory" thing and how everybody who stans AnnaKory literally only talks about Gar as if he is "her son" and not his own fully fledged character - that is a rant for another day.

Gar is a person. He is a whole, interesting person. He's not a background prop, he's not a handbag. He's a really cool guy with a story of his own. He's not a C character, he's one of the core four. Treat him like it.

(Ooooof that really went into Bunnie Rants territory but I am so protective over my boy but yeah! that's my rant for today lmao)

Favorite practice drawing so far. Because of course Annakory is going to be my fave

hi, i was the one upset about kory being made to wear the same outfit for half of s1. i'm taking that back. i like to think i complained because i feel protective of the character and the actress. but then what if it's also because i've internalised racism where i feel the need for woc to look our best all the time. as if we have to always look proper to be relatable and worthy of empathy (got very repulsed by this realisation). it's still not ok that anna had to suffer one of the harshest canadian winters in that outfit but now i believe annakory could've worn the same dress, a potato sack or whatever all the time and it will never change how much i enjoy seeing her :D

Hey.

I actually had an answer to your last ask written up but never got to posting it. Sorry about that.

Anyway, me personally, I wouldn't say that AnnaKory wearing that first outfit was racism towards her... The entire Core 4 wore the same few outfits for the same amount of time during season 1 because it took place over a few days and they were all basically on the run.

The first dress definitely wasn't practical for that type of weather but neither was the other cast's. I mean Teagan was 13 wearing only a t-shirt and hoodie. Not to say that that's ok too but they were all clearly suffering. The cast actually spoke about that during their DC Fandome interview. How they all were miserable filming 105 because it was way too cold. The wardrobe department wasn't that great back in s1 either so that was a factor. Also since s1, they tried not to film in the winter time. They were only forced to do so for s3 because of Covid.

I'm not gonna tell anyone how to feel, but it's nice you were able to reevaluate your feelings on the situation.
