Ok so Iâm playing Overwatch with my dad, right? Iâm Reaper, heâs Ana, so we get that one interaction talking about Soldier:76
Reaper: Tell Jack to stop chasing me.
Ana: I tried. He wouldnât listen.
Reaper: Isnât that just like him?
Itâs a cool interaction, lets us know what Soldierâs doing since he isnât really with the recalled Overwatch, awesome. However, thereâs one issue: we had a Soldier:76 on our team, so instead of a conversation about an old friend it seemed like Reaper being passive aggressive like a kindergartener. âTell Jack Iâm not talking to him.â âHeâs not talking to you either.â âAsshole.â

tbh as much as i do think it is worthwhile to discuss the topic of shipping aromantic/asexual characters and the nuances of it all (as well as the general attitude allos have towards aspecs in fandom spaces). it also makes me sigh equally because like... what characters. i'll be real guys we don't even have characters to discourse over. literally there are like 3 ever and none of those have fandoms anyway and the ones which do are like 'it was confirmed on twitter in a nebulously worded post by the creator'. its so bad out here
#aromantic#asexual#re my prev post#i pray 4 the day that i can discourse over aro character shipping without it all feeling a bit pointless because its not even confirmed to#be Real. whatever#aroace#aspec#honestly i totally get why its natural to feel so protective of those half confirmed aspec characters though. because we literally get#so little that anything has to be a Win. but we should not be living like this... we deserve better... guys...#mossy posts

Bit of a weird question, but what is your overall least favorite thing about MLP? ďżź
Sparity.
#magicalgrimm#ask me#thereâs a later season episode (post spike getting wings) that Tulli and I could not finish because it was so awful#where rarityâs feeling lonely without spike whoâs grown up and moved on from his crush on her#so she gets extremely clingy and manipulatey to get this. teenage boy to pay attention and worship her again#and rarity gets visibly jealous of spike spending time with another teenage dragon girl#itâs extremely extremely creepy. by FAR rarityâs absolute worst rock bottom moment#actual textbook groomer behavior#and even worse the episode kinda shits on rarijack where rarity tried to replace spike with applejack in helping her#but aj fails and fucks things up and isnât right for the job. so the episode implies spike is a better match with rarity than applejack#itâs just all sorts of wrong eugh.#sparity just sucks so bad I canât believe a good chunk of bronies still ship them or consider them a viable ship#Iâm fine with spike having a kid crush on rarity it happens with kids#but the more the writers just kept teasing and toying and baiting it. overstayed its welcome#especially because they have no chemistry. spike doesnât have a reason for liking rarity other than âhot woman in her mid-20sâ

Prompt For Dc-x-Dp With Mâgann and Danny Mâgann didn't expect to be dealing with Random Lazurus Green Portals forming around mars, but since she's Nearby mars she gets to deal with it... and their's An Alien with snow white hair Fighting A Glowing Vampire who's raving about Fathers and mothers?? Danny Is in such a Mood, He's on mars, which is a plus, but He's Fighting Vlad On Another 'Join me! Let me remove Jack from this plain of Reality!' and Honestly The Portals are throwing him off, Just... Bad memories, And Then, becuase of fucking course Something else happened, Vlad Gets Decked in the face and sent flying. "hey, So im going to guess that The Vampire is The Evil one here?" The Green woman asked, while Looking at Danny. While Vlad is growling and about to Throw A Red Ecto-blast at Mâgann Danny gets in the way with a shield and responds. "yeah, arch nemisis and all, how are you even out here? or breathing?" Mâgann Just Shrugged and said, "Well Home is home and all." Before flying to go Deck the Vampire and all. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ hope this is enough for you to Work some magic and all. and as for some extra stuff you could use, maybe danny has a Space obsesion, and His Protective stuff is Becuase of the Type of spirit he is half of? And maybe An Ice core Could be fun to go with? Ghost prince territory? with danny not wanting to be ghost king just yet. ideas for ya to use.
It's such a cool concept! I didnât fit Ghost Prince in, but I hope you'll like what I did
*****
Danny was going to strangle Vlad, all subtleties of ghost powers no withstanding. He needed the brutal power that just wasn't fully there even when using more offensive abilities, like ecto-blasts.
He had been having a good day. Okay, maybe not a good day, it's been a long time since he had an actually good one, but a decent day. One, that seemed to start out calm, with all of his typical rogues stuck in Zone recent enough they shouldn't get out today specifically. It was Saturday, so no school, and for once his homework wasn't swallowing him, so he had a bit of time to breathe. And prepare college applications, because his grades got to an appropriate level again and he actually got a shot in academic career. No chance for scholarship like Jazz, but he could go if he played his cards right.
And then, of course, Vlad had to come into his room to harass him again. This time with the added flair of a portal gun he made for some freaking reason.
This time Danny wasn't even trying to piss Vlad off, in the love of Ancients, he tried to ignore the other halfa even when he showed up in his room, raving about removing Jack Fenton from this plane of reality. Craving to deck the guy right then and there was enormous but Jazz was on him about controlling his â¨ď¸displaced aggressionâ¨ď¸ and his anger in general, so he was trying to tune Vlad out. He carefully didn't even think about transforming into Phantom. Especially since both of his parents were safe, a few states away on some ghost hunting convention that Danny managed to skip by the power of âI can't take more days off school, sorry I messed up my attendance early in the yearâ.
Well, they would be, if Vlad, being the obsessed creep he was, didn't try to follow them with a portal gun.
Danny was still willing to ignore it all, because Vlad was a loser and chances that he made something so complicated work properly were only slightly above chances his parents had. And both of them were tripping hazards in hell.
But then Vlad started blasting around his room to egg him on and hit his Curiosity rover model.
Phantom tackled him before the bastard had time to smirk. They phased through the wall, because otherwise Vladâs back would smash into Lego Saturn V and boy was not looking forward to even more damage. His white gloved hands pressed Plasmius against the cold floor. It looked promising. Over the years he got to a relatively similar level as Vlad with his fighting abilities so getting advantage so early could in theory mean it would be over soon and he would get back to his applications.
He forgot how to breathe for a moment when he was pushed through a portal. Some most instinctual part of him, deep in his core, fell to the mindless panic because He died this way! He died this way, was he able to survive it again?! Without thinking he lashed out, trying to scratch and bite and blast because he needed to get out, he needed to get away but danger was in front of him and he needed to get rid of the danger before he could escape to safety. And Vlad kept teasing him, like he didn't know fully well what portals did to Phantom, to Danny, like he wasn't breaking the most basic rules of the anarchist ghost society.
So Phantom kept trying to punch and kick and scream, trying to get away from green ovals that just kept appearing around them leading to who knows where.
Powerful blast to the chest sent him flying back, through the portal and down to the ground, which at some point became asphalt instead of wheat field. He was too frazzled to even try stopping his fall, just half heartedly tensed waiting for an impact.
It never came, because he was caught by static. Men in red (Flash he'd realize second too late, Flash) send him a concerned smile and asked about something but Plasmius was trying to duplicate, no doubt to overshadow actual hero and it wasn't the way Phantom wanted to be introduced to the Justice League so he jumped forward, sending both halfas through another portal.
It was easier this time, when he expected it but his hands were still shaking when he put them in fists. He could handle it though. He fought in much worse circumstances.
They spawned through a few more portals, almost threw worried looking Superman off the sky and barely not killed some of Aquaman's dolphins before something changed. Phantom didn't realize it at first, too focused on rapid fire from Plasmius and on the constant lookout for new portals, but something changed.
His next blast hit the target and left charcoal black burn and almost fire in its wake. It wasn't something that happened normally. It wasn't something that happened normally unless Danny's obsessions were being served. He wasn't protecting anyone but himself, which didn't fill the protection obsession, so that leftâŚ
Space.
Oh.
He was on Mars. Or well, a bit above.
It was mesmerizing. It was breathtaking. It was everything he wished for ever since he learned about other planets in kindergarten.
Sky was a pinkish red color that on Earth meant a beautiful clear sunset but here was just the middle of the day. He didn't see the sun itself, apparently lucky enough to have his back to it. It wouldn't be brighter than at home, obviously, but it was always nice to not be blinded when admiring the view.
The landscape below them seemed familiar. He probably saw it in some photo, but he couldn't remember which one. He couldn't help but try to remember. He wanted to know where was he, what he'd seen, what he'd touched, later when he was in his room, longing to get out here again.
In his almost trance he just about ignored the blast that flew past his ear like an annoying pest.
He had the name of this rock formation on the tip of his tongue! C'mon, brain, you could do it, you could remem-
Even he couldn't ignore the burning pain of the ecto blast straight to the shoulder.
âListen to me, Little Badger!â Plasmius yelled before dodging ice javelin. Phantom made sure it evaporated before hitting the ground. He was not letting other planet become collateral damage in whatever mess Vlad wanted to stir this time.
He carefully didn't look around when they teleported next time, aware just enough to know they were still on Mars. It wasn't a good moment to sooth his neglected obsession.
Being mad that this was probably the only chance he got out there helped. It definitely reignited the absolute fury, before muted by the panic and then obsession trance.
Phantom wasn't sure what he was yelling back as Plasmius went on and on about killing Danny's dad and marrying his mom and adopting Danny and how âlook Little Badger, you and I both see how much better off you'd be if you just joined me and let me teach youâ. He just knew there was little other than obscenities, and it was paired with an array of blasts and ice and straight up punches when he got close, which was good enough.
Oh, how he wished he could strangle the pathetic vampire lookalike bastard.
Something green and indigo sent Plasmius crashing into the ground.
âHey, so I'm going to guess that the vampire is The Evil one here?â Feminine voice asked in clear English. Danny took a moment to just stare, blinking rapidly to make sure he saw what he thought he saw.
Yup, that was certainly The Miss Martian, an alien heroine, whose action figure he displayed at the most honorable place of his room. The Miss Martian he tried to learn everything about when she debuted. The Miss Martian whose powers were so similar he used footage from her fights to learn himself. His biggest inspiration.
Dope.
Wait, she asked him a question, didn't she? It was not the time to be a fanboy, probably.
Yeah, no it was definitely not a time to be a fanboy, he decided, right when he threw a shield in front of her, because Vlad didn't take kindly to being interrupted. It really was the least he deserved.
âYeah, arch nemesis and all that. If I may ask, what are you doing here, Miss Martian, ma'am? I thought you lived full time on Earth?â
âWell, home is home and allâ she just said wistfully and telepathically threw a rock to Vlad's stomach, making it follow until it hit the mark, right before another stone hit him in the unprotected back.
And here Danny thought he got over his celebrity crush back when he was sixteen.
Good thing though, another person in the fight made his protection obsession rear back to life, the fact that she was an alien only helping as his space side zeroed on her too. It was useful to not get distracted by glimpses of the world around them.
Of course Vlad just duplicated to make the chances âequalâ once again, so the fight dragged on.
Miss Martian just kept being graceful like a supernova, beautiful and destructive.
Danny hoped he didnât look as embarrassingly pathetic as he thought he did. What were the chances she didnât see when he took the blast to the arm because he got distracted by pretty rocks?
Plasmius kept taunting, calling him Daniel because of course secret identities or prefered names don't matter when you have to harass the teenager.
Phantom decked him extra hard for that.
At least he didnât try to use his portal gun again, too busy with fighting off both of them.
Kick, dodge blast, ice, shield for Miss Martian, ice because how dare he attack an alien, dodge, intangibility.
Was it or was it not a good idea to use Ghost Wail and be done with that.
âI've got an idea, cover for me for a minute, okay?â
âSureâ Did he sound too eager? He wanted to keep it cool at least outwardly, not mess up his first and perhaps last impression.
Wait, shit, Martians can read minds! Miss Martian probably already knows how big of a mess he was.
Shit, shit, shit.
Phantom dutifully shielded heroine as she levitated with her eyes closed, at the same time keeping constant assault on Vlad. It was getting exhausting. At least he could go home fast when the fight ended.
âDo you want me to make him indefinitely indisposed or is it too much for you?â Miss Martian suddenly asked. Danny froze for almost a minute before he choked out.
âWhat do you mean?â
âI can rip his mind apart, leave his body alive but useless without any thought to lead it, but I know some people find it uncomfortable even when it happens to villainsâ
For a moment, in the midst of fanboying, he forgot how terrifying set of powers she had.
âPlease don'tâ After all, ghosts are their minds, and despite how despicable things Vlad did, no one deserved fate of completely not existing.
âAlright. Is enhancing his experience of pain okay with your moral code?â
âYeah, I thinkâ
âDone,â she said with a smile, and despite how terrifying he was of her just a few seconds ago, he had to admit, this smile was gorgeous.
After that, it took, like, three punches before Vlad bailed. Which was good.
What was less good, was the fact that the portal he used to escape closed before Danny could go through it. He just stared for a long moment, blinking quickly. He wanted to scream. Or cry. Or both. Both was good.
âSo, DanielâŚ?â
Danny winced and looked back at Miss Martian.
âDanny. Or Phantom. Nobody calls me Danielâ
She nodded with a friendly smile. Good thing they were flying, because his knees got weak for a hot second.
âAlright. I'm Mâgannâ
âShould you tell me this?â
âI know your name,â she shrugged. âIt's only fair that you know mine. It's not a name I use on Earth anywayâ
âUm, sure, okay. It's nice to meet you Mâgannâ Was this too stiff? He had no idea how he was supposed to interact with heroes who just shared their identity. For no reason too, because c'mon, she didn't know him. Why would she do it?!
âAre you from Earth? You speak Englishâ
âYeah, USA, Illinois. That bastard teleported us around and of course left me strandedâ
âIt's your lucky day then, I was about to head back, I can take you with meâ
There was no universe in which he wouldnât agree.
#now imagine justice league meeting to talk about weird metas thet were fighting all over the place#because danny saw only flash superman and aquaman but other could see him in civies or even as heroes and he just havent realized#and they all are kinda stressing over it because danny and vlad could be dangerous and what not#and they try to find them and onky find vlad#meanwhile mâgann and danny are in bioship just bonding#anyway i hope you like what i did with your prompt#im not very good at writing fight scenes#nor do i get this whole âpeople hotâ thing that kinda showed up#so tell me what i can do to do it better in the future#dpxdc#dc x dp#dp x dc#dcxdp#wandixx writes#wandixx answers#spearmint ship#have a nice day dear stranger who got to this part#danny fenton/m'gann m'orzz

Wait, whatâs going on with Embers???? That fic has been on my read later list since 2021, whatâs happened with it???
Brief overview, then I'm likely never touching this topic again, because this is not a Drama Blog:
Context: Embers is a super old AtLA fic that was written during the early fandom days, read widely at the time, and was the origin of the widely-used fanon name of "Wani" for Zuko's ship (kind of by default that it was one of the first popular fics to give his ship a name, I think?), even though most fic writers don't seem to realize it's from there anymore.
"What's Going On": I used to include a link in all my stories to it, because I believe in crediting other writers for borrowed elements, and I was using "Wani" in all my fics. But BOY did I not want to be sending readers that way anymore, so I've adopted a new name for Zuko's ship, and removed all Embers links.
None of the criticisms about Embers itself are new; I'm assuming they date back to when the fic was being written, because this isn't an "it aged badly" thing, this is an "actually yeah this gets worse the longer you think about it and I shouldn't have ignored my bad feelings just because some of the worldbuilding was interesting" thing.
An Incomplete List of Why I Made the Change:
I don't actually like the story that much anymore, and don't want to rec it
I tried to re-read it recently to see if some things were as bad as I remembered and it turns out they were So Much Worse Oh Yikes. More specifically, the treatment of Katara and Aang and their respective cultures has... rather a lot going on. One example: The Fire Nation and Air Nomads are both given multiple backstory elements in an attempt to make the average Fire Nation soldier's participation in the genocide/war in large part the fault of the Avatar and the Air Nomads themselves, and also fully justified from the Fire Nation perspective. And I do mean fully. One of its core tenants is "People from the Fire Nation (and only people from the Fire Nation) who don't follow orders Literally Die, therefore murdering pacifists and babies and continuing the war (and their regularly scheduled war crimes) is the only thing it is physically possible for them to do". I cannot emphasize enough how literal that is.
Also the name "Wani" means "Alligator" and is... objectively a pretty lame name for Zuko's ship? Where's the personality, where's the deeper meaning, where's the resonance with Zuko's themes? @tuktukpodfics initially thought I was calling the ship "Wanyi", and that's what I've switched to, because it is Objectively So Much Better. In their words: âWĂ nyÄŤ (čŹä¸): Literally âone in ten thousand,â âperchance.â Used grammatically in Chinese to mean âwhat ifâ or âjust in case.â I think a ship called âThe Perchanceâ is perfect for a boy clinging to false hope.â
TL:DR; I don't rec Embers anymore, because I don't actually like the story anymore, and there are things about it that get worse the more I think on them. I've removed links to it and renamed Zuko's ship to "Wanyi" ("The Perchance") because our boy deserves a ship name that reflects his character arc.
#for the record if you ever find something kind of rancid in my fics#do please let me know#EX: I've rewritten scenes to be better Actual Blind Rep for Toph based on blind reader feedback#and I'm debating how hard it would be to ignore/re-write the canon issues of Water Tribe sexism (for the Southern Tribe at the least)#because that is a common complaint I see from the people who's RL cultures the Water Tribes was based on#probably I can do more interesting things with that going forward#in other words justice for Hama and Hahn#at least the show itself made Hama excellently complex#anyways back to doing actual writing#please no follow up questions#though I will say anyone who wants to update their own fics to use Wanyi (or any other name): go for it!#all you need to do is plop your chapters in a word editor and find/replace the ship name! it took about 40 minutes to do literally#all of my fics and I had some other editing to do besides! it'll be even quicker for you!#let's sink the Wani#avatar the last airbender#atla#Zuko

Angel Dust Turns Human - Pg1
I need to mention how insane it is that Angel Dust is like, around 8ft tall. I'm not good at drawing tall people, so his human form made him shorter since, if he was alive, he'd be at least around 6ft; that's as tall as he's gonna get!
Anyways, I like Angel Dust centered media bc he's my favđŤśđ¨ââ¤ď¸âđâđ¨ It upset me, when I finally watched the damn show, how little screen time he had (no, those 2 episodes were not enough for me). Personally, I don't think his character was that explored, so I'm just stretching him out a bit in this - even if it goes against Canon, sorryâšď¸
In fact, this whole comic goes against Canonđ. Since the whole point is Parental Alastor & Angel as a son figure. I don't see enough of that (obviously since it doesn't fit much but idc) so I made my own.
It's also possessive Alastor, since I really love 'yandere' parental/platonical relationships, there's not much media with that tropeđ
NO ROMANCE! This whole thing is found familyđ
#hazbin hotel#angel dust#alastor#charlie morningstar#human au#? i guess#parental figures#comic art#fanart#yandere parent#possesive love#/platonic#no romantic relationships#no romance#sorry guys I just dont ship Angel dust w anyone :(#not that he CANT be in a relationship. I just dont see him in one - or the one I picture in my head#it makes me sad that he doesnt rlly have anyone to confide in - excluding any potential romantic partners#I dont count charlie since their relationship is rarely ever shown; I dont rlly see the two being close - no matter how hard they tried#alastor being a parental figure is mainly because of his 'creepy/scary' aspect - I like parents who are intimidating. even to their kids#husk couldve also been a father figure here but I just dont see it sorry - hes too much of a drunk so..#hes better off as a pal#hazbin art#hazbin lucifer

i don't think wonderland is ready for those alices
#i have so so many things i could say about this cielois madness returns au (yeah that's what i call it. it's not even meant to be cielois)#(but like. ship names are convenient aren't they)#anyway so many things. but that would be a lot so i'll talk about it if someone asks or if i feel like it later#this post's rambles will be about the outfits!!#so. i gave ciel the dollhouse dress and alois the queensland dress#i know they could have been swapped. and it might have made more sense#HOWEVER#i do not care#i can and will put alois in red just because i want to. and of course i would give him a red fit in an amr fusion au#the vibes are rancid. it's perfect. that's what him being in this au is about!!#terrible things happen to children in kuro and in alice ok#anyway. i know queensland would be good for ciel because r!ciel BUT please envision queen luka i BEG#it's heartwrenching to see lizzie look so small in the game already so luka???? soul crushing. i want it.#now. the dollhouse dress for ciel#because of funtom mostly... and the vibes... and he's more of a doll than alois is ngl...#like. i know that it fits alois more because it's heavy on the trafficking and poverty parts but. see if i care#plus the minor theme of exorcising the evil of the city through the pain of children is more ciel-coded. so yeah#and he looks so bad in red oh my god i could not give him another dress... unless it was the mad hatter one and it would have been boring#also very much not fitting#you might notice that i changed the symbols on both of their aprons#in both cases i replaced female with male obviously but#in ciel's case the dollhouse dress has so many disgusting implications and i made them worse you're welcome <3#(replaced female with male and male with one of the symbols you can see on the contract seal. yeah yeah that's fucked i know)#(it's alice madness returns. and fucking black butler. bad things be happening to children!!)#anyway#that's it for my rambles#i got too lazy to do the vorpal blade and hobby horse light trails#so we'll live with the fact that my sketch has better vibes than the final piece#kuroshitsuji#kuroshitsuji fanart

She. Was. There. She was in Genosha during the massacre. She saw SO many die because people hated and feared them. She held the damaged body of a loved one in her arms till dawn.
Gotta stop seeing everything through the frigginâ lenses of a ship or another. There is more to a character and their choices than who you want to see them smooch with.
Stop it! Some of you out there really donât deserve Rogue.
#rogue#x men 97#x men â97#anna marie#anna marie darkholme#gambit#yes#I am looking at some of you loud people#romy#shippers#you know who you are#stop dragging this ship down#these two characters deserve better#not going to lie itâs so difficult to even interract witj anything related to the ship because of a couple of really loud and entitled fans#there I said it

Half questioning my memory of the post s4 era, half side eying a certain character, so correct me if Iâm wrong, but I donât think there was ever a time when the Buddie fandom fully took the single âEvanâ from the season 4 finale as Eddie receiving âEvanâ privileges from then on. From my recollection, fics stayed mostly consistent with their uses of âEvanâ by Eddie, perhaps just with an emphasis on important moments (love confessions, Christopherâs adoption papers, wedding vows, NDEs, etc.) after the finale. And I had to stop myself from wondering why that is because I know why. We all know. Because nobody wanted to use âEvanâ in fics when Buck had just told his parents that people who know him call him Buck. So Buddie fandom heard that, accepted it, and uses it only sparingly. In canon and fanon, even Maddie only rarely uses âEvanâ anymore, and it feels even less common for her to use post-Buck Begins (if at all, actually). So the fact that Tommy and BT fans tend to use âEvanâ (at least, this has been my experience) is so utterly jarring. Buck told everyone his preference, and I believe LFJ has spoken about being told to use only âEvanâ when referring to Buck, so I simply do not understand anyone who believes that BT is in love already or endgame. Yes, it could go the âBuck gave Tommy âEvanâ privileges off-screenâ route, but then why push it off-screen? It would be a major allowance made for a new love interest, and a significant step in Buckâs character arc. Yet we see nothing of the sort. So why would anyone believe thatâs what happened? The last we heard, Buck had told his parents and everyone else to call him Buck exclusively, with the minimal exception of Maddie (who was, for most of his childhood, his one and only lifeline and confidant). That sort of history and characterization is not ignored if there is not something very wrong with the writersâ room. It was not even ignored by a significant portion of the fandom post-season 4, although Eddie gaining permanent âEvanâ privileges wouldâve been a strong indicator of a Buddie endgame (had an on-screen explanation of Eddie gaining this privilege been released). It was not ignored, and it did not change the nature of Buck in fic nor fanon. So why in hell is the same not holding true for a brand new relationship like BT?
#buddie#apologies for the rant#it just annoys me#that for 3 years this facet of Buckâs was understood and accepted by basically the entire fandom#but enter T and suddenly people are using âEvanâ like Buck didnât literally walk through fire every single day of his life to keep from#being known as his parentsâ âEvanâ again#this was literally not a problem before this past season and now everry time I see âEvanâ used in fics I cringe#soemtimes even when itâs Maddie or Eddie using it in a canon/character-aligned way#itâs the very definition of YOU DO NOT KNOW THIS CHARACTER to my brain#anti tommy kinard#anti tevan#anti bucktommy#anti bummy#anti bt#evan buckley#eddie diaz#and like#who cares if T is using it in canon???#heâs literally known Buck for all of 5 months at MOST#this is not a case of endgame ship getting privileges regarding each other that others donât#this is a case of T and BT stand not understanding Buck as a character or person#even watching the whole show does not absolve someone of this weirdness because why is anyone following the lead of Tree 6 on anything Buck#maddie buckley han#maddie han#maddie buckley#btw if youâre a BT who somehow stumbled on this post despite like 4 anti tags that are easily filtered - just walk away#I am but an annoyed buddie fan who thinks that watching this show for deeper stories#is better than latching on to the newest white boy of the month#911#911 abc

friendly reminder if youâre trying to prove byler endgame donât bring up anything the actors have said or done. we have such strong evidence and we donât need to show them noahâs comments
#i find that saying that most of the cast ships it is pointless#because then they say âwell if weâre going off of what the actors say#david said it probably wasnt going to happenâ#and then i have to tell them that actors lie all the time which doesnât help my case at all#itâs better to not even go there#byler#stranger things#stranger things 5#will byers#mike wheeler#the duffer brothers

You donât have to like sebaciel or the many undertones it presents in the series but itâs actually getting to the point where insistent ignorance of the sexual nature Ciel is presented in can be dangerous. Fiction does not exist on a 1:1 scale with reality but just using this fictitious scenario of Ciel being sexualised (by Yana herself) while having a panic/asthma attack and it being called ânot actually sexualâ or sebaciel fans being called âdelusionalâ when pointing out the erotic nature of, not just this, but the many instances in which the viewer is meant to see Ciel in a sensual manner, is concerning.
You should be able to identify a sexual situation, even if itâs a situation in which the things happening are not inherently sexual. One of the main components of grooming is that is does not start out sexual, thereâs a buildup to that in which the groundwork has already been laid. Iâll say it again, you should be able to identify when something sexual is happening without it being inherently sexual.
Yes, Ciel is repeatedly sexualised canonically, it is not being used to mock shippers, he simply exists in a very erotic manner in many situations using a variety of different ways to depict it, most commonly being flower language. No, you are not âmorally correctâ for not enjoying it, you just find it uncomfortable or triggering and thatâs fine. Yes, you should be able to see that heâs being sexualised because heâs fake and if you cannot see it then thereâs a chance of not being able to see this in real life, whether it be a friend, a child in your care, or even yourself.
Not being able to identify the sexual nature a character can be presented in is not a good thing. It doesnât mean you âarenât a porn addictâ, it doesnât mean you âarenât a bad personâ and it certainly doesnât mean you are ânot a pedophile, like those shippers areâ. It means you cannot spot the difference between a bad fake relationship and a bad real relationship.
Stop giving a damn about fictional characters and start giving a damn about yourself.
#someone on Twitter said it better than I can but if you are staunchly and genuinely believing that Cielâs panic attack isnât meant to be#use flower language or fan language or even the ways in which they are dressed#for your own safety you should be able to identify that even as an adult#sebaciel#kuroshitsuji#black butler#internet safety#I guess#sebastian michaelis#ciel phantomhive#also donât come into my notes victim blaming because you donât like antis I will block you#pro fiction#profic#*loud sigh*#I hate this term but I need to use it for â¨reachâ¨#pro ship#proship

Fandom Gripe #23: I know that fandom is in some deep denial about its treatment of female characters that are canonically involved with fan favorite m/m ships, but do yâall realize that when you disappear female characters from the narrative wholesale to push the idea that your canonically straight fav was âsecretly gay all along!â youâre making several bad implications? That 1) bi men donât exist, 2) bi men do exist, but those who have genuinely loved a woman before cannot genuinely love a man after that (therefore bi men donât exist in practice), 3) women cannot inspire genuine love and devotion in men, therefore any relationship with a woman is âlesserâ than the one they later have a man (see previous parenthesis), or 4) to acknowledge the existence of a lovable woman who isnât a terrible person, where if a relationship previously existed, it did not end because of âincompatibility,â is enough to destabilize the present relationship between two queer men?
Because why is the tgcf fandom allergic to acknowledging that He Xuan had a whole ass fiancĂŠe that he loved? Why does no one ever seem to remember that the kidnappings and murders of He Xuanâs sister and fiancĂŠe were the final straws that sent him on his rampage, and he still keeps a shrine to them in the present-day of the story? Why is her entire existence and significance to He Xuan as a man, character, and to his character arc disappeared in favor of pushing Shi Qingxuanâthe brother of the man responsible for his fiancĂŠeâs deathâinto that same role, as if to say that her impact on He Xuan is significant... just not when it's from her? Why does He Xuanâs life in fandom essentially begin not just after her death but because of it?
#tgcf#human gripes at fandom#anyways these are rhetorical questions because I already know the answer#i just absolutely hate it#why do yâall hate female characters so badly đ#especially when they âget in the wayâ of m/m ships?#mxtx shows that woman more respect in the book than fandom does outside of it#and she didnât even give that character a name!#simply embarrassing#i could have also talked about jgy here#but letâs be real: that man never loved qin su (or anyone)#so i did not want to include him when discussing people who are *actually* capable of unconditionally loving others#but anyways#mdzs fandom sure loves to either disappear qin su#or act as if sheâs the one responsible for why their precious âmeng yaoâ canât just hop into bed with his bros#you know? the one he killed and the one he used as an accomplice in his murder? those bros? that he so obviously loved with sincerity?#at least moreso than he could ever love a *woman* amiright?#(for legal purposes that last tag was a joke)#i also really hate the implication that he xuan had no life before shi wudu ruined it#that in fact shi wudu made his life 'better' by tying him to shi qingxuan#the romanticization of shi wudu's actions to make way for a ship is... a Choice
