#his suicidal urges are used to further the agenda of an entrenched world power

[sangrefae]

kissing this addition directly on the mouth (platonically) bc it really highlights every issue i have w kbms as it is in the general fandom sphere

ngl it's kind of sad when people say "can't wait for mithrun to show up in the anime and people realize the SUPERIOR kabru ship" as if that's the most important draw of his character and not the incredible portrayal of disability/addiction through his arc like. please

#like yes anything can be superior yaoi if you just start making stuff up and referencing material that doesn't exist#i feel like it's the same people who are so quick to respond to any sort of criticism of mithrun with “ableism!”#are the same who are the first to strip him of any agency and treat him so preciously#as if it's not a deliberate choice on mithrun's part to ignore kabru's advice and treat marcille so aggressively and make everything worse#like dont get me wrong mithrun has been victimized in his own way#his suicidal urges are used to further the agenda of an entrenched world power#even as he's proven a danger both to himself and the people around him#but tell me how mithrun being (willingly) used as a tool to brutalize disenfranchised populations on behalf of a systemic power#is meant to help kabru heal from being brutalized by that same systemic power#in a way that isn't meant to just assuage whatever white guilt mithrun might have#you could make the argument that mithrun choosing to stay in melini is him disavowing elf supremacy#(which is GENEROUS because otherwise you're saying superior yaoi is tying kabru (a brown man) to a person who's in universe racist to him)#but it's not like mithrun EVER apologizes for his violence#or has a moment where he realizes he treated kabru badly#and frankly it's not on kabru to forgive him for that (although he would because he's a good person)#(it wouldn't even a moment of growth for him he would do that for anyone in mithrun's position)#but the fact is he would HAVE to forgive mithrun if you want your uwu delicate “find healing together” caretaker post canon fics#like the onus is ALWAYS on kabru not mithrun#if kbms fans were even willing to acknowledge mithrun treated him badly in the first place#and again that's just really really bad prospects considering mithrun's place in the system that destroyed kabru's life#wanna know what yaoi universe they're reading dunmesh in in order to come to the conclusion that mithrun treats kabru as his equal ffs#let them go their separate ways and work on themselves independently and grab lunch sometimes yeesh

Sorry @ventiventigrande I needed this on my blog too I am kissing these tags mwah
