#dude bro

[mxmorbidmidnight]

I love when my dad shows me his cishet dude bro films so I can point out all the queer coding and describe how the buff male protagonists would kiss (like waves eroding against the shoreline, rough, gentle warm and smooth. They kiss like they fight…. Passionately).

No dude bro media is safe from me. I get into these fandoms just to make it gay. Yeah I turned this crusty sixty year old man gay. What are you going to do about it hetero boy? That’s what I thought. Wench.

Renji Haters Are Not Bleach Fans!

My brain is trying to mathematically make sense of how someone who claims to be a Bleach super fan, a certified Kubo dick rider and someone who has consumed every ounce of “Peak Fiction” (Bleach) content written by Kubo himself, can simultaneously be the biggest Renji hater. It makes no sense to me. You cannot POSSIBLY think that Kubo is the best fiction author when Renji is ONE of the characters that shows off his writing skills the most, WITHOUT “plot armor” (looking at you Soul Reaper, Quincy, Hollow, Bout ICHIGO KUROSAKI!). You disregard all of that simply because “he can’t fight”. You cannot possibly think Kubo is the best writer to ever exist when he’s explained on multiple occasions as to why Renji is “weak”. You cannot POSSIBLY think that Renji is “useless” when Kubo himself CHOSE to make Renji one of Ichigo’s right hand men. It’s like you skipped the ENTIRE SERIES!! I get not liking Renji, he’s not everyone’s cup of tea and that’s fine, but to straight up be a hater is downright outrageous in my opinion. Smh…some of y’all need a good rewatch and to actually pay more damn attention to what you’re watching. Renji hate is so overplayed at this point. Unfortunately I don’t think his big TYBW moment will change some of the brainless Bleach fan’s opinions. 🙄

I could go into so much more detail about how Renji showcases Kubo’s skills the most but it would be difficult putting it into words. The video I’ve linked below does an amazing job of breaking down Renji’s character. I highly recommend this person’s channel for any Bleach fans who enjoy learning more about the series and characters they love so much!

Teyvat's "Most Down Bad" Award Goes to Alhaitham for a Second Year Running

Seeing everyone making fun of Alhaitham for his "stalkerish" tendencies in this event is funny, because I feel like a lot of people missed that "Be literally everywhere Kaveh is" has been Alhaitham's MO from the day Kaveh appeared in the game.

From only grabbing his house keys after Kaveh returned from the desert (he couldn't have had both sets of keys at the end of the Archon Quest unless he went home and got Kaveh's copy) to ditching conversations to get back to his house only after Kaveh came home, to showing up without any warning or explanation in Kaveh's hangout with some ridiculous excuse about hearing his voice through noise-cancelling headphones... Refusing to offer any help in the Temple of Silence story quest other than staying in the library with Kaveh...

Since when does Alhaitham willingly cover anyone else's duties?

But this trend of "Be everywhere Kaveh is" didn't start when they were adults. It was already in place when they were still Akademiya students--and it's a trend that didn't end even when they had their fight.

Even when they weren't speaking, Alhaitham dogged Kaveh's every step through published responses to Kaveh's research articles in academic journals. He insisted on keeping a line of communication between himself and Kaveh open, even if the only way to do that was through very public ideological clashes. Pulling Kaveh's pigtails to get his attention lolol. It's implied that, for at least the few years between their fight and Kaveh moving in, this was the only communication between them--Alhaitham's refusal to allow their connection to entirely fade away. (And the fact that this is revealed in Kaveh's character stories--through his precious journal that records the moments of his life that had the most impact on him--shows just how deeply he values the fact that Alhaitham didn't give up.)

Another relevant side note: Alhaitham never asked Kaveh to give up his half of their house. Knowing half of it belonged to Kaveh, knowing that Kaveh may one day want to reclaim his part of it, knowing that it was listed as theirs, Alhaitham moved into the house and made zero effort to change its ownership. He was completely fine with living in "his and Kaveh's house." The stories suggest it was only months later (or even longer) that Kaveh even noticed he had the house, and he transferred away ownership of his portion without Alhaitham ever asking him (or even seemingly wanting him) to do so.

Please, let that sink in. Alhaitham actively left his grandmother's (presumably comfortable) house to move into "his and Kaveh's house," with no apparent explanation for why, and after doing so, he made no attempt to change that "his and Kaveh's" label. He moved into the house with no promise that Kaveh wouldn't show up on the doorstep the very next day and move in too. It almost feels like another deliberate provocation--I've moved into our house, are you going to come stop me? LBR, if Alhaitham had had his way, Kaveh would have been living there with him from Day 1...

There's also the fact that Kaveh literally can't write on a single message board anywhere in the entire nation of Sumeru without Alhaitham hunting his messages down and responding to them (which absolutely no one else does, by the way).

"NUH-UH!" "UH-HUH." "NUH-UH!"

Alhaitham's own character stories tell us explicitly that one of Alhaitham's defining character traits is "He is never where you need him to be," yet somehow...

Shot, and chaser:

Any time Kaveh is in the slightest bit of need or danger or just wants Alhaitham near, Alhaitham is "coincidentally" exactly where Kaveh needs him to be, whenever Kaveh needs him to be there.

Alhaitham didn't just "happen" to run into Kaveh in Port Ormos, an entirely different city from where he was supposed to be working. He didn't just "happen" to read the same terrible book as Kaveh when we know he otherwise would not waste a moment of his time on poorly-written literature...

He didn't just "happen" to appear when Kaveh was upset and needed a distraction in the House of Daena during Kaveh's hangout. He didn't just "happen" to be sitting around waiting when Kaveh needed answers after the Archon Quest. He didn't just "happen" to find Kaveh's academic publications and every single message board posting and respond to them at length and in public.

Which is exactly what Kaveh's mother told Kaveh he needed.

What level of down bad is "Abusing your powers as an Akademiya employee to keep tabs on your crush's library loans"? Just asking for a friend.

The only person for whom Alhaitham just "happens" to be available is Kaveh, over and over and over again--because he is very deliberately making himself a constant presence in Kaveh's life.

(Like, out of all things, I think people really underestimate the devs deliberately paralleling the romantic relationship between Kaveh's mother and father with Kaveh and Alhaitham's relationship. If you want to point to one thing that says "These two characters are intentionally queer-coded," it doesn't get any more obvious than this.)

Alhaitham, are you not embarrassed to be this transparent??? 🫣
