#idk why ppl hate alya so much

[that-was-anticlimactic]

the miraculous ladybug fandom really loves hating children for being children. they are literally kids. they are fourteen years old. "alya césaire bashing" should NOT be the top alya tag. what did she do wrong? have an underdeveloped brain since she's, oh, idk, fourteen? or-or is it because she *gasps* has made mistakes? why is "classmates bashing" a popular tag? oh noooo they're kids and they made mistakes! + the writing in those episodes was bad and they were ooc! how dare they! "adrien agreste bashing" - okay. he's flirtatious and has feelings. sue him for acting like the suppressed teen he is. like oh my god. even the lila hate,,, y'all do realize she's a child, right? you're allowed to hate her but wishing death upon her?the way that people write about/refer to lila is sick.

"alya césaire redemption" FROM WHAT!!! why does she need to be redeemed? gosh. no matter how many classmates bashing-related tags i filter out on ao3, i still actively struggle to find fics without it. these characters are 1. fictional and 2. children. if you can't handle kids being kids then stop watching???

not only are they kids, but they're traumatized kids. marinette and adrien aren't the only traumatized characters. every single classmate got akumatized and tried to kill the city's heroes and destroy the city. alix erased people from existence. how do you think she felt about that after the fact? ivan, a fourteen year old kid, was the first person to get akumatized. the first. he had no idea what was happening, people gave him so much crap for it, and then it happened again. sabrina almost killed chat noir. kim tried to make chat noir kill ladybug. alya tried to unmask her hero live. sabrina literally became invisible.

like... and not just that, but they've all been heroes, too. as exciting as it may have been at the time, you can't tell me they aren't at least a Little traumatized after fighting literal villains. oh, and they've been victims of akuma attacks. is chloe a bad person? kinda, yeah (but also partially bc of bad writing-). but she was almost like boiled alive, killed, was taken hostage countless times. max had to deal with the aftermath of markov's akumatization. when juleka became akumatized in "guilt", the classmates were forced to sit and get consumed by guilt. they've had to watch their family get akumatized, watch their friends or partners get akumatized, live through the guilt of knowing they hurt someone so much they got akumatized. bc they're human and they're kids. ofc they're going to hurt someone. it's natural. let them be kids!

Thoughts on Illusion

Finally getting around to watching illusion!! here we go y’all (this time longer and in more agonizing detail!):

- the way I strongly dislike Bob Roth...

- okay i have pretty mixed feelings on chloe’s character but like… does paris not remember what she did?? hello continuity?! /hj

- omg alec hiiiiii

- LMAO the “my son” slip up is wonderful

- lol plagg leave him alone the boy is quite literally traumatized and the ring isn’t helping

- i swear to god i’ll never get used to seeing this bitch in the kitchen.

- “are you sure you’re feeling okay?” no like actually tho he isn’t. run.

- a single stain warranting almost smashing the pan on the ground is kinda crazy but ok ig

- wait how did nothing fall outta the pan??

- of course he doesn’t know how long to boil an egg off the top of his head. of fricking course

- STOP WINKING AT HIM GABRIEL!! you haven’t earned the right

- oooo i like the split screen

- oh wait it took me a second to notice the thought bubbles lol

- NINO!! i missed my boy

- post graduation?? what year are they exactly? or am i missing something??

- all in favor of joining nino’s resistance say “I”

- LMAO comrade mayo?? that’s actually not too far from something i’ve said to my white friends irl lol

- rvejndjdb adrinette is so adorable bro

- nino please babe it’s just lunch

- y’know, sometimes i forget just how chaotic their group can be. then i see scenes like this and remember. it’s pretty realistic tho imo

- also nino definitely has a bruise lol

- frickin lila man.

- “Are yOu EatInG In thE cafEtERia?” tf does it look like??

- the way marinette is such a real one

- what on earth is actually wrong with lila lol i’ve never hated an animated character as much as her. aside from maybe gabriel

- wait no the yogurt/honey example was actually really good lol

- lol comrade ketchup

- also comrade beurre maître d’hôtel is so extra and for what?? love nino tho

- NO STOP SHE’S SO SICK

- also are they just letting ppl in the school?? slay ig

- adrien 😭😭

- oooooooo lila’s lil snitch ass… i mean it makes sense but jeez

- pls i forgot she was pregnant lmao

- ew he looks weird when he’s trying to be a decent person /hj

- okay i love them but they coulda been a little more discreet than pizza lol

- they’re just standing outside the window like?? 😭😭

- idk why but the piece of pepperoni stuck to gabriel’s shirt is killing me

- ADRIEN YOU COULDN’T EVEN PRETEND TO TRIP?? please be so fr

- okay no cause this time around gabriel actually reacts and adrien really seems sorry and uhhrhdhdhdh i. hate. this. man.

- pls the way alya just walks in and is like “yea no you guys already know the deal let’s just get this over with” what a queen

- nino PLEASE

- okay i’m kinda cringing rn but it’s totally fine

- again, the way adrien seems genuinely scared…

- goddamnit

- “call me father” actually go trip down the stairs

- NO STOP IT THIS MAN IS ACTUALLY A PIECE OF SHIT I CANNOT

- ok five at once is honestly extra. like i hope this asshole remember he’s a whole grown man doing all this to fight some kids. yes i know it’s more than that technically but still. weirdo.

- lol his ears look so stupid when they’re sticking off the sides of the mask

- the way marinette/ladybug is actually that girl

- see no he’s such a fake bitch cause falling wasn’t even necessary

- nino is such a detective i literally love him. i mean yea he’s wrong but still

- he looks like such a dumbass with that stain on his shirt. i hate him.

- “comrade tartar sauce” nino yes absolutely but he really doesn’t deserve it bae

- i really like the design on alya’s fanny pack but i’ve literally never noticed it before

- they’re all so cute lol

- “comrade sweet and sour” i wonder why she has that name…

Final thoughts: okay it took me a sec to realize this was out of order (i know people have been saying it. im just stupid lol) but i really enjoyed it overall. gabriel keeps getting worse yet sadly never surprises me with the depths he stoops to. adrien needs so much help rn and i really hate lila but im almost glad she’s back?? like i missed this rivalry between her and marinette in a way.

1-4

1. what otps in ur fandoms do you just not get?

gmw: welllllll, there are some things i don’t ship but like i understand why ppl ship riley/lucas, i just happen to… not…, but josh/maya for me i’m just like ???, i don’t get farkle/maya bc they are just such a friendship or lucas/smackle

doctor who: missy/doctor, i actually get master and doctor more tbh, i don’t know, anyone who ships martha/doctor or donna/doctor, clara/missy

harry potter: sirius/james is so aggressively platonic to me as is ron/harry, hermione/harry, draco/harry, draco/hermione, pansy/hermione (bc i just don’t like shipping hermione with ppl who are offensive to her)

lost: sawyer/juliet i just don’t see any development

supergirl: oh god, uhhh kara/james i just feel like he was boxed into her love interest and i really like his guardian storyline now that he doesn’t have to be that, but like the lack of screentime is appalling, alex/max obviously, i used to think they were cute but kara/mon el, and barry/kara is too much of a brotp

ouat: emma/regina, i just didn’t get it also emma/neal, killian/belle is too much of a brotp, and rumple/belle is eh

pll: aria/ezra that is ILLEGAL

backstage: miles/alya yIKES, also just can’t feel it for bianca/jax, also miles/julie and sasha/carly or sasha/vanessa, or carly/vanessa they jsut feel platonic to me plus they crazy

timeless: i don’t get lucy/flynn

scream: i can’t get into brooke/stavo or audrey/gina or noah/audrey

dance academy: ben/kat…… why must kat (a Gay) suffer

2. are there any popular fandom otps that you only brotp?

gmw: i highkey adore the idea of brotp riley/lucas and farkle/smackle

harry potter: for whoever ships harry/hermione i brotp that, or like draco and harry, i love the idea of friendship but idk about romance

supergirl: ehhhh kara and james i adore as a friendship 

ouat: emma/regina but i’m honestly meh on the whole show rn

pll: spencer/aria i guess??? also i guess hanna/caleb but idk 

backstage: every straight ship and carly and vanessa

scream: noah/audrey are the best brotp ever buuuuutttt not romantic

dance academy: kat and sammy and tara/christian

3. any fandoms that don’t appeal to you?

supergirl fandom is messed up, i like the teen wolf fandom but i’ve seen lots of drama lmao, pll idk 

4. have you ever unfollowed someone? why?

i unfollowed someone who shipped snape/hermione, someone who was just spewing hate on the sg fandom and was majorly pro snape, and someone who was super happy that la la land got their oscar taken away from them. - to clarify. not that moonlight won. not that la la land didn’t, that they got to watch the oscar get ripped out of la la land’s hands and see their disappointment on screen. as a creator that just… rubbed me the wrong way. but i don’t really unfollow too many. 

questions designed to make you hate me!
