the problem with people in fandom suggesting polyamory for everything is they treat it like some magical glue that fixes all relationship problems, ignores clear sexualities and genders, assumes polyamory is the same as multishipping, sands down characters into something manageable, and sidelines their least favorites into a position that is both agreeable and easy to access. so then you get fandom thinkpieces about how suggesting polyamory is sexist and racist and biphobic and blah blah blah. which is all a valid response to the inherent sexist and racist and bigoted values of the previous polyamorous suggestions, but also ends up sounding real bigoted as well when it starts comparing polyamory to something dirty or disgraceful or shameful or greedy etc...

this makes it very difficult for people like me, who suggest polyamory because characters are clearly and often forced into situations where they are actually polyamorous, and practicing poly relationship structures without any of the support or stability that comes from acknowledging the inherently polyamorous aspects of their relationships. they are engaging in the actual real complex relationship dynamics that come from polyamory, such as the acknowledgement of sexuality and differing attractions and changing interpersonal relationships, and the fact that everybody loves differently not just at an individual level, but also every time they fall in love again - if it even is love or romantic love at that. it's a celebration of differences and similarities and balance in equal measure. and polyamory for them would actually be freeing and fascinating.

this also makes it very difficult for people who like polyamory because it's fun, and shipping doesn't always have to mean something. sometimes it's just fun to smash your favorite guys together to figure out how they'd work, and there doesn't always have to be a reason.

so when EYE and many others suggest polyamory, it's because it would be a) healing b) freeing, and c) fun as hell. but then you've got idiot mcgee over here saying "everything would be solved with poly! :D" about relationships with complex sexual and racial and gendered undertones that need to be handled respectfully. like what am i supposed to do with that.

it's kinda fascinating to me how welt has been "at the end of his life" for like. several decades by now. he goes on and on about how old and weary he is and how "his job is done" and his story is over but- oh wait i just realized i can phrase this in a very funny way- he's kind of sorta immortal now because he got the herrscher core back, so he's really just stuck in the epilogue for all eternity

finished knitting this funky sweater that sat in WIP purgatory for over a year! as you can see, my tension is really wacky at the top, but i think it’s really cute! I’ll have to figure out when would be a good time to actually wear it though

My Ingredients:

A stroll in nature,

A sprinkle of fantasy,

A chat with my friends,

And a hug with family.

These are my ingredients,

For my creative flow.

I mix them up inside my brain,

And let inspiration grow.

A calming quiet,

A cloaking dark,

A gentle breeze,

Thats my favorite part.

Its in the silence and the calm,

After a full day of color.

It fills me like a healing balm,

And sets my thoughts a flutter.

I go and stumble till i find,

A freshly planted seed.

Then from there,

It’s just like magic.

Out comes pouring all the words,

Imbued with subtle feelings.

The only way that i can share,

The unique patterns of my breathing.
