Once you stop thinking about queer people's labels as strict indications of what's in their pants and who they do/don't bed and instead view queer people's labels as how they interact with the world, you'll find that you'll get along with queer people better and treat them better, I think.
I get a little tired of fandoms over-analysing characters and taking their words and actions and misconstruing them to make the character seem more malicious than they are.
example, Kakashi wasn’t really around for Naruto when he was growing up. It sucks, he could’ve done better, but it makes sense character-wise for him to be distant. But then if you find someone who dislikes kakashi and needs excuses to hate on him, suddenly Kakashi did this because he doesn’t give a shit about Naruto and never did. like, common sense wise, we all know Kakashi wasn’t written to hate Naruto, right??? It’s pretty clear that he cares about Naruto. Objectively. He was written with the intent of giving the reader the impression that he likes Naruto.
And even if he didn’t back when Naruto was a little kid, doesn’t it make for a more interesting read if their relationship is complicated?? Why would you want every relationship to be perfect and healthy, that’s boring. you can still think kakashi is a good person even if he wasn’t the dad that stepped up
i love the astral express family because they’re all SO weird. every time you think you’ve found the normal one you find out they’re just another flavor of freak. like himeko is maybe the most responsible one, but she just casually enjoys coffee that most consider poisonous. welt? straight up from another universe and carries around a black hole. march? don’t fuckign kid yourself her name is MARCH 7TH. then you think maybe, maybe dan heng is the token normal person of this group! he’s logical, down to earth, relatively calm! and it turns out he’s a dragon whose ex is hunting him across the universe, and he just decided not to mention that. and somehow, in comparison to everyone else, he’s still just some guy
It's not clear whether Realmbreaker was fully conscious/sapient before Wrenn reached out to him, but it would be very reflective of Norn's particular strain of evil if her entire invasion plan relied on bullying a (Phyrexian) child into compliance.
Fit: You know... There's a reason I'm a loner, that I'm a nomad, that I go from place to place. 'Cuz everywhere I go, people die.
Fit: I'm just- I'm a walking bad omen.
I know Fit probably said this as a joke and it wasn't meant to be that deep, but I've got a shovel and I'm ready to dig, because this comment fits his QSMP cubito way too well.

Fit: I had nothing to do with any of this! I had nothing to do with any of this! [He notices the Allays trapped in a room and gasps] Ohhh– C'mon, get out of here– You're gonna burn to death! Get out of here.
Fit: This is why I don't walk into churches. This is why I don't walk into churches, for this reason. You know– 'cuz it- it would just burn down. It would just burn down if I walked right in. This is what happens. I'm an unholy man.
[The sound of villagers dying]
Fit: Oh yeah, they're all dead. They're f- they're doomed. They are DOOMED.
Dono: You showed up and the mansion burned itself down, made a crack about never walking into churches, then thunder happened? Your manifestation skills are too damn high dude.
Fit: You know– ok, I'm a little cursed. I'm a little cursed, as you can clearly see. You know... There's a reason I'm a loner, in Minecraft, that I'm a nomad, that I go from place to place. 'Cuz everywhere I go, people die. Ehh... you know? I'm just- I'm a walking bad omen. I'm a walking bad omen. Look at this sht. It's- it- ugh...
