Elucien’s and gwynriels are so bitter and pressed.
Ofc Audible & Spotify commenting under elriel videos does not mean they’re endgame. Yet we can still make light hearted jokes about it bcs its fun & we all have a sense of humour clearly bitter antis lack. Not to mention, if it didn’t matter that much why are gwynriels now trying so hard to turn “guilty as sin” into a gwynriel coded song? There is nothing forbidden or guilty about Gwynriel. You can’t even use the “but he’s my trainer therefore forbidden to me” angle as Nesta & Cass got together despite that same dynamic. No one will stop gwynriel from being together. Not Rhys or Nesta. Sure you can make the crack assumption Gwyn is fantasising about Azriel but again. Thats based on nothing. I can make the same claim Lucien is fantasising about Vassa. Gwyn fantasising about Balthazar. It has the same amount of validity to it. If it didn’t matter to antis, then why are they now lying & saying Spotify/Audible have also commented under GA videos…which there was no proof or receipt to go along w that claim. If it didn’t matter - why are antis making fun of elriels for enjoying it? Be secure in your ship. Brush it off as nothing. Same goes for the magazine article.
“Read the books” we have. Hence why we’re shipping two characters with confirmed mutual attraction & desire towards each other, a couple that has a tangible plot, angst & stakes.

Not a request but a rant bc i feel like you're the only person who'd agree w me but I've seen a couple of stories and character ai bots that convey Simon taking his mask off as a HUGE deal and he's so insecure and scared of what you'll think of him... but he literally took his mask off in the game in front of his team and even some ppl i don't think he knew (I haven't played in awhile) without any hesitation.
ALSO- can we talk about the fact that so many people think that König having social anxiety means he's shy? I've seen some fics where he's this loser virgin who's soooo shy and sooo scared and so submissive. Excuse me? He's 100% a rough dom. 😭
HELPPP BECAUSE THIS IS SO TRUE!?!?
PEOPLE PUPPY CODE SIMON SO MUCH THAT THEY THINK HE'LL GET ALL SHY AND BLUSHY WHEN HIS MASK IS OFF LIKE BITCH- LOOK AT HIS LORE:
Pre-Military
Simon Riley had a very traumatic childhood while growing up in Manchester, England because of his heartless father. His father often brought dangerous animals back to their home and taunted him with them, even going so far as to force Simon to kiss a snake. When he and his younger brother Tommy grew older, Tommy would always wear a skull-mask at night to scare Simon. Simon's father would sometimes take him to the Bone Lickers concerts. At one concert, his father made him laugh at the death of a prostitute who had overdosed on drugs. NOW LETS GET ON TO KÖNIG. Yes he does have social anxiety but that doesn't make him stutter and blush like a schoolboy.
KÖNIG'S LORE: König suffered from severe social anxiety throughout his life, often being bullied during his childhood. At the age of 17, he volunteered for the military.
While he hoped to join as a recon sniper, his physical size and his inability to stay still made him an unsuitable candidate. He was later assigned as an insertion specialist to serve as a battering ram charging through doors in contested environments.
During a mission, König took down an Al-Qatala cell in Berlin which was involved in human-trafficking. He breached the townhouse and eliminated all twelve AQ fighters inside. However, his sniper hood terrified the Urzik hostages who had to be convinced by the rest of his team to follow König to safety. Also Konig as a virgin i feel like he wouldn't be a loser, he'd straight up rail his partners into the mattress until his partners are gushing and squealing in pleasure or pain. Maybe both? RAHHHH I WANT BOTH OF THEM NOWWWW.

I see so many posts over different social media platforms about sexuality/gender hcs for the strawhats and i want to add in my own two cents because i believe im very correct (but anyone’s opinion is valid so long as it doesnt go against canon coding)
Luffy - the most aroace and trans guy to ever BREATHE. i dont mean aroace in that hes somewhere on the spectrum where he can still be attracted to people, because he cant. this guy had never grasped the concept of romance and never will, because theres no reason for it to him. hes trans because i say he is, i dont have many reasons for THAT but its just the signals hes sending me. trans to trans communication trust
Zoro - gay. thats it thats the post. no but i dont ship luffy with anyone but zoro is just attracted to literally any man who is strong, thats his criteria and thats all he ever needs. is he aware of it? not at all, he has no idea that its not normal to get bricked up by the thought of other men
Nami - i havent seen a bigger lesbian in media ever, genuinely i dont think any other character is as obviously lesbian as she is. she loves girls unapologetically no matter what, supports all girls at the end of the day (cough kalifa) . i also hit her with the asexual beam because i can, specifically demisexual because i THINK so
Usopp - while i wanna consider kaya, i wanna consider sanji too and thats making me lean between bi or omni even if omni is a label under the bi umbrella. its more a question of if he recognises his preference for men or not, because he does prefer then at the end of the day. the ace beam bounces from nami to usopp because he too doesnt feel anything and doesnt think about it either
Sanji - oh my god where do i begin. maybe just the blatant queer coding of wci as a whole?? of course hes attracted to women, thats not an aspect you can remove or just toss around to being something else. he loves and respects women, but he is so QUEER. all of wci is just queer coding, its a queer story and sanji is a queer character i will die on this hill. he probably has some kind of gender issues too, what specifically? no clue, but he likes people of multiple genders and is in deep denial about it all the time he wont ever truly accept it but he can one day as a treat live with that fact
Chopper - oh hes a reindeer he cant really have a sexuality DID WE FORGET THE FACT HES HUMAN TOO ISNT THAT LIKE HIS WHOLE THING, NOT BEING A MONSTER BUT ALSO A HUMAN. HE IS BOTH? i dont have any specific labels to slap onto him, just that hes a people lover and encourager of literally everything. ace beam bounces onto him too
Robin - trans trans trans trans trans trans trans trans you will accept robin transfem into your life right here right now. she can like anyone, she has no label on it, she just likes people and cant bother with genders or anything like that. the ace beam actually skips her because if they were doing a hear me out cake she’d be the one putting all of the crazy things. freak. (lovingly)
Franky - HOW TRANS CODED IS IT NOT TO REBUILD YOUR OWN BODY TO BECOME A BETTER VERSION OF YOURSELF AND TO REBUILD YOUR LIFE IN A WAY YOU WANT, BUT GOING BACK TO WHAT YOU LOVED ABOUT YOUR OLD SELF, AND EMBRACING IT. literally, trans goals. he modified his body and went i might as well give myself top surgery and an awesome dick while im here!! sexuality wise hes a lover of everyone, but he has preferences for women (robin) but encourages all bromances (with brook)
Brook - THIS IS WHERE IM MOST PASSIONATE!!!! people can say that hes the token straight grandpa. but theyll never understand the joy of old gay brook had a romance with his captain, the joy of brook trying to subtlety let the other strawhats know he accepts them (he isnt subtle at all and everyone knows). look at brook in drag twice for no reason and tell me he isnt queer, in some way. the ace beam finally hits someone and its brook, insert skull joke here
Jinbei - very specifically old gay man who didnt really do much throughout his youth, he always knew he liked men but he never had TIME to do anything, too busy being awesome and a father i fear. now that hes with the crew he isnt automatically gonna seek anyone out, but hes also not gonna restrain himself from finding interests in people, hes being more selfish now and thats good for him. finally the ace beam hits jinbei and proceeds to fly off towards other op characters that i might talk about some other time
can you tell im asexual and love projecting onto characters with it !!!!
#one piece#headcanon#straw hat pirates#straw hat crew#one piece strawhats#monkey d. luffy#roronoa zoro#nami#sanji#black leg sanji#tony tony chopper#nico robin#franky#soul king brook#first son of the sea jinbe#jinbei#jimbei#sexuality#gender#lgbtqia#wow this took long to tag and write#noahsop

The results are in! Thank you everyone who voted, this was super interesting to see.
The difference between these four gifs is the sharpening and export settings! Many of you picked up on the sharpening difference, as well as A and C being similar, and B and D being similar.
The super quick answer is:
Gif A = soft sharpening settings, export with pattern dithering
Gif B = sharp sharpening settings (slightly more blurred), export with diffusion dithering
Gif C = soft sharpening settings, export with diffusion dithering
Gif D = sharp sharpening settings (slightly less blurred), export with diffusion dithering
The longer explanation is:
Gifs B and D are the two 'extremes' of my typical sharpening. B being on the less sharpened end, and D being on the more sharpened end.
The sharpening settings are as follows:
The 2 layers of Smart Sharpen have the same settings. The Gaussian Blur has a radius of 1.0 pixels.
For Gif B, the opacity of the Gaussian blur layer is set to 40% (more blurred)
For Gif D, the opacity of the Gaussian blur layer is set to 20% (less blurred)
(I used to only use 20% opacity for my earlier gifs. The last 3-4 months, I now use anywhere between 20 and 40%, depending on the scene)
---
Gifs A and C are both sharpened the same way, a new softer sharpening that I haven't really used much before.
The sharpening settings are as follows (I'm using the settings from this tutorial):
Both layers have the following Smart Sharpen filter settings and the Gaussian blur is also set to 1.0 pixels. The Gaussian Blur filter is set to an opacity of 85%, and the top layer opacity is set to 50%.
For Gif A, the gif was exported using pattern dithering.
For Gif C, the gif was exported using diffusion dithering.
but A is exported using a pattern dithering, whereas C is exported using a diffusion dithering. It was so fascinating to see the a preference for C arise over A.
For a bunch of analysis, head below the cut!
Gifs B and D will be referred to as the 'sharp gifs' and A and C will be referred to as the 'soft gifs'
The Data
I'd like to start with the two most grand-overview kind of observations.
First, a bit more than a quarter of people could not see any difference between the gifs. This was super encouraging to me, since I do stress over sharpening at times, and the differences between these four gifs demonstrate some of the stuff I stress over. Nice to know that for a fairly sizeable portion of you, it doesn't matter too much.
Secondly, wayyyyyy more people use mobile than I realized. About 2/3 of responses (of the repsonses that included a device) used mobile. Now a few people did mention looking on desktop afterward, and those "second" responses aren't included in these charts. What this does mean is that most of the people seeing my gifs are doing so, at least initially, on their phones (with the tumblr mobile gif compression).
Here's a pie chart of all the responses, with the mobile/desktop scores added together, just so we can get a baseline visual of which gifs people liked the most. I've color coded a bit so that A and C are visually distinct from B and D.
If we remove all those who couldn't see a difference/found some differences but not enough to pick a favorite, we ge the following results, with gif C as the desktop favorite, and the sharp gifs as the mobile favorites:
The following shows the overall preferences. About 2/3 of voters who expressed a preference liked the sharp gifs more than the soft gifs.
However, this is a bit misleading, since theres a notable difference between desktop and mobile viewers.
On desktop, just over half of voters preferred the soft gifs. However, they didn't just prefer the soft gifs, they preferred gif C.
Gif D also fared well, whereas the other soft gif, gif A, did the poorest.
Many of the stronger reactions in the tags were to the gifs on desktop, including statements that D, and to some extent, B, was too noisy, crisp, or over-sharpened.
!! This should not be taken to mean that A is the least favorite, since my question was simply "which gif is your favorite" and says nothing of which gifs people would consider 2nd, 3rd, and 4th place.
On the other hand, mobile viewers strongly preferred the sharp gifs, with 71% of mobile votes going to the sharp gifs. Voters were divided evenly between gifs B and D.
Mobile viewers did seem to like A a little less than C.
Before moving onto some analysis, I do feel the need to note that all of these are all sharpened about equal to or less than the 'standard' sharpening settings that a majority of tutorials across tumblr will use (smart sharpen at 500%, 0.4px, and again at 10%, 10.0px).
This is a grainy, indoor shot, so it does look a bit noisier than other gifs may look with the same sharpening, which was intentional on my part. With a shot like this, I would typically put out a gif with the settings in between B and D.
Analysis
The main reason I think we get these results, including the difference between the mobile and desktop votes is (to probably no suprise of anyone who has ever published a gif on tumblr), the gif compression on the mobile app.
I've downloaded the gifs from the post from the app onto my phone so that we can compare the frames.
The left image is the top corner of a gif, as displayed on desktop. The right image is the top corner of a gif, as displayed on the mobile app.
As you can see (zoom in if you can't), you loose a ton of detail to the compression, and even some color (check out Jenny's lipstick!)
Looking at gifs on mobile is, admittedly, not as good of an experience as it is on desktop. If you want to really appreciate the work that gifmakers across this site do, check out their gifs on desktop. They look better on there (or at least, they look more like the creator intended).
So, back to the gifs in the poll.
(NOTE: These are not cropped perfectly so there is some shape distortion and slight pixel differences. That's all on my end, not wanting to spend that much time on this. Try to just pay attention to the pixellation/compression)
Starting with gif A:
The left side, desktop, image, is a nice, soft gif. It makes sense to me that people on desktop would like this. I specifically looked at pattern vs diffusion dithering since I personally prefer pattern dithering on softer gifs like this (it decreases the effect of banding in the backgrounds), but it seems like C was slightly preferred over this. Either way, it looks okay on desktop. Mobile, on the other hand, it's a bit of a disaster. Charles' face is alright (although there are some splotchy yellow bits around his face and his neck isn't looking too great), but the background gets turned into this blocky mess.
Perhaps this is the fault of pattern dithering? Maybe gif C will fare better on mobile?
Gif C:
Nope. Gif C looks just as bad on mobile. The blocks are even more noticeable in the background, though I could concede that his face looks marginally better on mobile than Gif A. Also, up close like this, you may be able to better tell the difference between the dithering export settings for the soft gifs.
Given how these two gis look on mobile, it is no surprise to me that they did not do as well on mobile than they did on desktop.
So let's check in on the sharp gifs.
Gif B:
Okay! This looks a bit better! So there's still some compressing going on with mobile, you can see it in the background, and in the colors of his face. But, a lot less detail is being lost to the compression. It's not noticeably blurrier the way the soft gifs are.
A super simplified explanation of the compression is that the algorithm is looking for clusters of similar-looking pixels to reduce into even simipler, monolithic clusters, and when there's more noise and more contrast between individual pixels, it's harder for the algorithm to find things to simplify.
A gif with sharpening like this is like a preventative measure against Tumblr's compression.
(Also of note: The file size for the compressed, mobile gifs for A and C are smaller than the original files. However, for gifs B and D, the compressed files are actually larger.)
Finally, let's look at Gif D:
Gif D is like the more extreme version of Gif B. It is even sharper, so the compression algorithm seems to be having an even harder time. The major loss on mobile on this gif seems to be the colors (check out the lips and the eyes) as opposed to the image quality.
What do people seem to prefer in a gif?
To me, these results indicate that people tend to look for two things in a gif:
Image definition
A soft, smooth look
These can exist in the same gif on Desktop, which seems to be why the soft gifs were so popular. However, I would also argue that definition is a bit more important, which was why the results were a bit more evenly spread on desktop, since all four gifs have good definition on desktop.
However, on mobile, a softer or smoother gif will often come at the loss of image definition. So, in these cases, people will gravitate towards something that has some definition. It seems like for mobile users, there was really not too much of a difference in the appearance of the two sharp gifs, so results were split.
Final reflections
Personally, on mobile I prefer B and D about evenly, and on desktop I like the look of A and B. My least favorite of these gifs was actually C, and so seeing it do so well on desktop was surprising. I was also surprised by how many people didn't see a difference between the gifs, but as I mentioned, this was more reassuring than anything else.
Most of you who shared your preferences for both platforms generally picked the soft gifs on desktop, and the sharp gifs on mobile. I suspsect if somehow it was allowed to vote once for mobile and once for desktop, this would have only served to strengthen the current results.
Thanks to everyone who voted, and thanks to everyone who added additional info in the tags or provided additional opinions over on discord. This was massively interesting for me!
out of curiosity... here's 4 iterations of the same gif with some slight differences
let me know if you are on the mobile app or on desktop, and which one you prefer. feel free to leave additional notes about your opinions in the tags or in a comment. (i have no attatchment to these gifs, they were made for science, so if you really hate the look of one, i will not be offended)
if you are super confident you know what the difference is, please refrain from putting that info in the tags or comments, i'm trying to get a sample of what people prefer when they're not looking for anything in particular
i will reblog this once the poll is over with what the difference is

I haven't seen anybody post the full Riddle Chain yet (including Silas Birchtree) so here you go :)
I didn't find any of these codes myself by the way! I'm not sure who to credit for the rest of them, but I did get the Silas Birchtree code from @dismissivedestroyer (sorry for tagging you ^_^" if you don't want to be tagged let me know and i can edit the post). You can also get the answer using the code "STOD EHT TCENNOC"
(SPOILERS BELOW)
RIDDLE (would you like to play a game) > YES (what's Mcgucket's favorite soda?) > MOUNTAIN DONT (what's a medieval homonym?) > LYRE LIAR (the 20th ingredient of Anti-Cipherzing Tonic?) > HAROLDS RAMBLINGS (how is clown repellant made?) > UNION MADE (Bill's govt file number?) > 29121239168518 (who comes from Zimtrez 5?) > GREBLEY HEMBERDRECK (what's on Bill's flag?) > 3466554 (what leaves a thin line in the snow?) > TINSEL SNAKE (the 6th option on Bill's editing software?) > TORTURE MENTALLY (name an unpronouncable wizard) > XGQRTHX (where do Tri Angels come from?) > 333SUNDAPPLELANECOZYCREEKIL6071494611 (Bill Cipher's Lawyer?) > CAESARATBASHVIGNERE [or] MULTI LEVEL MARK (who defeated Silas Birchtree--?) > EMMALINE BUTTERNUBBINS (you've earned a treat! enter 'DISPENSE MY TREAT' to download) > DISPENSE MY TREAT
The 'treat' you get is under the cut

Gwendolyn is absolutely Elias. That “I do” only cemented it . She’s Elias if he actually made do on his ambitions . She’s Elias if he wasn’t so worried about appealing to others . She’s Elias if her “fate” dictated more about her than her fear of being known .
She’s Elias but this is not the Eye’s domain .
This is the web’s
#we’ve all figured it out by now but gooood does this get my mind a running#very excited now#gwendolyn bouchard#elias bouchard#TMA#the Magnus archives#tmagp#the Magnus protocol#(as in we’ve all thought it was web coded for a while now . I mean . I think we have . I have at least )#original elias bouchard

I watched Avengers: Age of Ultron (apart from I skipped some overly long action sequences) and I am not sure so can someone tell me whether or not Tony Stark was the baddy in that film? Because about halfway through I was sure he was but then it was maybe just an evil robot after all and I am confused because either this film was surprisingly subversive or it was about robots hitting each other.
#I CANT STAND THE CONFUSION IN MY MIND#also i get why people wrote wanda/sylvie. they should go on a wholesome chick-flick revenge-quest together. and also they should kiss.#also i am now only *half* joking about thor being in love with mjolnir#it kept doing Christianity Bits which was quite awks.#not sure why it used the bit about building the church on a rock for some metal i mean wasn't jesus making a pun there? about peter?#i think Vision might be Jesus? or else he's Dr Manhattan who's done a first year philosophy course. could go either way on that tbh.#BUT TONY WAS THE BADDY RIGHT? WAS HE? WAS TONY THE BADDY OR NOT????#with the homocidal glitches in what he thinks is his winning personality?#and all the weapons he's made and is in fact still making but now he only sells them to The Good Guys?#except look how easily they fall out with each other and also don't a lot of innocent bystanders die in their overly long action scenes?#also i need to write fic about whether mjolnir does in fact obey some unknown code that can be cracked if you set your mind to it#she does like Robot Jesus so apparently we can rely on her to make the major decisions from now on#the ending's a bit ominous - apparently someone's collecting those TVA paperweights to do... something? Oh no! :O#yeah i watched the MCU in the wrong order shut up this was inevitable and Marvisney should just embrace that at this point#(i know 'Marvisney' will never catch on but that will not stop me using it)#the loki series ending is but the latest installment of “unlimited power with no oversight is fine as long as the Good people have it”#UNLESS TONY WAS ACTUALLY THE BADDY. WHICH AS I MENTIONED I AM NOT AT ALL CLEAR ON.#maybe what i mean is was tony stark the baddy *on purpose*?#i only picked this one to watch next because tumblr gifsets told me thor wears a nice coat in it#which he does! but only for a small fraction of the film :(#journey into the mcu#the avengers (the marvel ones not the other ones)

I think there's a fine balance between depicting the actual lived reality/experiences for a lot of folks and just making a reductive, racist caricature, and it ALL has to do with intent. I don't think the idea of Gamzee being interpreted as Black detracts from his character, but if Hussie went in intending to do that, I would've wanted that handled with more care. Like, lots more care. The fandom badges Hussie as horrifically racist, like they go extremely hard on that sometimes. And yes, there is absolutely racism in the text (most notibly in the earlier parts), but I genuinely have a hard time believing they're like, horrifically, violently, inmoveably racist, especially because we have a literal record of them becoming a more mindful person, which is Homestuck itself. I think they're just sloppy about it, which isn't actually a crime if their heart was in the right place. This is definitely NOT to say that they should keep being sloppy about it, but sheltered white people gotta start somewhere.
Like, a lotta fans who refuse to budge on this bring up the asian schoolgirl joke. Which, yes, is in fact obviously racist, but the tone and the context and Hussie's SI character's actions suggest that they're punching down on people who are this kind of racist. I thought that was obvious, but apparently not to portions of the fandom. She used their own language to highlight how ridiculous their shit is. She's making fun of them. But that's a bit of a side tangent to loop back around to say that I genuinely just don't think Hussie thought about the trolls in terms of human ethnicity much at all, besides Meenah, who is canonically inspired by Nicki Minaj. Bit of a can of worms there, but Meenah is canonically, inarguably Black to me and many others because of this. If she wasn't intended to be Black, if she was intended to be a white girl surface-level coopting Black culture and style for the Aesthetic[tm], she'd be far, FAR more racist if that was all that was happening with her. But re Hussie not thinking of troll ethnicity- that in turn, because this is how all/most people's imagination's work, does lead me to believe that Hussie's idea of a 'blank slate' character is in fact white, simply because Hussie is white. It all loops in on itself. This incidental coding both clashes with a lotta characters and complements some, like Karkat vs Gamzee.
But you're absolutely 10000% correct about how otherwise abusive white boys get a pass for being ''chill'', and Gamzee represents this PERFECTLY. He's a ''chill'' white boy living off of his abscent daddy's money who's cosplaying as his working class friends, surrounded by dogmatic religion that he tries to rope everyone into. I mean come on now, that is so rich white person. And as you said, that translates really well to Mormon and Fundamentalist assholes. I also grew up in an intenesely religious, EXTREMELY white, backwater little retirement town in the middle of nowhere and holy fuck, the shit that the boys could get away with. They were like rabid animals. If they were in a city, at least one of them would've showed up on the news and I wish I was being hyperbolic about that. This read of Gamzee also matches up nicely to how his friends wave him off and kind of infantalize him, because he's just a chill little idiot, right? He can't actually do any harm. ''Who could've seen his murder spree coming, he was such a nice young man'', y'know?
tbh the whitest trolls to me are the zahhaks and the makaras bc of what kind of internet-people equius and gamzee represented at the time. juggalo culture is predominantly white working class folks or white folks on the poverty line, and in the US bc of segregation, that meant a lot more mixing of cultures than you see in middle class and up areas. its the same with canada and the UK. so you see a lotta black influences in there bc of how US class structures have been constructed. its a melting pot made by and for the working class. a lotta irl juggalo stuff is pretty chill from what ive heard? as a movement they want to demolish class heirarchy and build community. ofc theres room for abuse in the lifestyle though, thats not unique to juggalos. gamzee as a rich white boy living a juggalo lifestyle but not getting it right and actually reinforcing what irl juggalos fight against makes perfect sense for his character
equius on the other hand is like belligerently Hegemonic White Cis Dude coded to me. he represents young white cis boys on the precipice of falling into the manosphere pipeline, imo. specifically bc theyre lonely and insecure. his spot on the hemospectrum is perfect for breeding that shit. he's been told his whole life that hes better than most of the ppl he knows. hes higher up caste wise than most of his friends, particularly nepeta, but still feels inferieor to his friends who ARE higher up than he is, which is what sparks that hyperspecfic brand of insecurity in white cis boys. their only real problem is that someone else whos even more priviledged is looking down on them. and gamzee also being white just kind of compounds that bc of the sense of 'competition' between white guys or whatever, to be The Whitest Squarest* Guy who is On Top (haha) Of All Other White Square Guys
everyone else? nah. its so obviously not whats happening. which really just highlights the fact that large swaths of fandom still believe that white is default in terms of character design. and its insane to me how ppl can say w/ their whole chest that the hemospectrum has nothing to do w/ race, its just abt class, when racism and class are intrinsically tied. like theyre horrible twin sisters, man, you cant rlly have one without the other. enforced class models in society dont work unless theres someone up top deeping someone else Deserving of having less bc theyre not the exact same type of person as them
*using the term Square here not to denote any kind of 80s movie nerddom but to try to describe normies who are toxic abt it and think everyone else should be like them
#our t#Sorry for the sudden syntax change another alter from op is typing this lol.#Also Eridan is so specifically Italian to me. I dunno why he just is ahahaha.

”love letter from the sea to the shore,” (Delaney Bailey) and “good old fashioned lover boy,” are azul love songs directed at Jamil but from different ends of the spectrum
#Listen it’s abt the pining#It’s abt the fact that azul wants to see Jamil succeed even if it means without him#It’s about how they’re both from harsh environments that are very difficult or impossible for humans to live in#It’s abt how sand ties them together but is also tied to their impermance#(<- crazed man on his way to say that sand is Jamiazu coded)#And good old fashioned lover boy is just peak dork/nerd azul#Idia and the twins would refer to him as lover boy any time they know he’s abt to ramble abt Jamil for an hour#Jade lowkey adores hearing abt it and is VERY invested in their relationship while the other two would rather know like#Negative ten information abt Azul’s love life#Idia bc he’s like “stop rubbing it in my face” and I million other things (he will still stay and listen bc no one else will play games wit#Him) (fuck the tag character limit me and all of homies hat the character limit)#And Floyd doesn’t want to know bc azul is lowkey still like 12 in his head#Like ‘what do you mean Azul wants to date someone he’s Still A Baby’#(He will get up and leave. Dip. Run away. *insert ‘hit da bricks’ skeleton)#Jade and Floyd are just Azul’s older brothers#They brought a 7 year old octopus to their mom like “can we adopt him we want a new brother”#Like one does with a stray cat#And he’s just been with them ever since#OH maroon is also jamiazu (yes Taylor swift. I have listened to her since I was like 6 it’s just in my dna now)#But like. Azul would be OBSESSED with older etiquette type of stuff#Look at him. That man has read Jane Austen#And watched every period drama under the sun#Every day I make the tags longer than the post#Azujami#jamiazu#ashenviper

What are your thoughts on how nickelodeon made the Princess of Linphea lightskinned? Was this them trying to whitewash Linphea?
That's interesting!
I mean listen I wouldn't put it past them yknow? This is rainbow and nickelodeon, two companies very cozy with whitewashing and racism. But I do think this could've been more innocent on their part. We didn't see a lot of the people of Lynphea in the first three seasons but we did see some, notably Miele who is also very lightskinned and could very well be white or very white-passing.
I think it's also important to remember that Rainbow is,, pretty bad with racial sensitivity and they treat all of the planets as very "color blind" so to speak. Like Melody is considered the "Asian planet" yet the princess is likely wasian but so white-passing that most fans thought she was completely white. We've also seen multiple other characters from Melody that don't "look" asian (obvs being asian doesn't have a "look" but in the realm of animation and rainbow racism? yeah they do). Nabu and Helia are both heavily asian-coded, yet Nabu (and his family) is from Andros while Helia is implied to be from Lynphea or Solaria.
We also see multiple shots of the crowds on other plants like Domino and Solaria where you can see characters that are definitely Not White. And while those characters could easily be from a different planet, they're also usually wearing the clothing associated with that planet and are considered Part of the people.
Rainbow often mixes different races and ethnicities for literally all of the planets. Like the argument that a character couldn't be from one planet because they aren't a specific race does not work in the winx universe. All of the planets are incredibly "mixed". And again, while there's obviously a discussion to be had about whitewashing cultures, being color blind, uncomfortable implications of colonization, etc, the princess of Lynphea being a white girl or at least partially white-coded or white-passing is actually really on brand for them and not something that I would entirely blame Nickelodeon for.
#and listen im Not saying that these planets wouldnt be mixed or cant be mixed#i mean obviously just look at earth#the way rainbow does it just usually comes off as very color blind racist whitewashing yknow the usual vibes from them#rainbow never intended for any of the planets to represent a specific group of people#the only one they really did that with was melody and even then it was Barely#like it is still very much the East Asian plus occasional southeast asian planet#but we still see characters of other races and ethnicities on melody#we also see other asian coded characters Not from melody#like... rainbow just never actually meant for any of the planets to be That Specific#it may have been completely unconscious but i wouldnt be surprised if it was a very conscious decision on their part#its ironic now obviously with all of the whitewashing and racism but iginio was originally very excited about winx being diverse#him wanting winx to be diverse is literally the reason that we have characters like flora and aisha#so i wouldnt be surprised if them making the planets very Mixed and Ambiguous was a conscious decision#and again thats not to say that they did it in the best way#more often than not it comes across as tone deaf or straight up racist#but yeah ANYWAY i really don't think nick is at fault for krystal being white/white-coded#that's definitely on rainbow and they likely weren't Trying to whitewash lynphea as it was already like that#answered
