Tumblr! Let me edit my own fucking reblog! I need to add more tags on that post!!!
#if youre wondering i hate slow burn with miscommunication most#wtf is hanahaki???#also why can i freely edit every post but that one#slow burn is... fine? i dont care for any ships that employ slow burn apart from bubbline and id NEVER read bubbline fic#miscommunication is never ever written well in fanfic#'but my story--' no fuck you your miscommunication plot is bad#it works well in stories where there are fundamental incompatibilities with what characters NEED#it works well in shera proper because catra needs the exact opposite of what adora needs#catra wants devotion but also agency and adora cannot be devoted because she has to protect EVERYONE#and that means stripping catra of her agency too#and catra sees that as adora thinking shes bettervthan her#it doesnt matter how much they talk about it - their core feelings about the world and lack of psychological skills further push the clash#same for glimmer who wants agency and friendship when adora and bow are pushing her in a protective little shell#she sees it as being stripped of her agency!!!#she sees it as proof people think shes useless... her greatest fear#but adora sees it as protecting her#and the more glimmer lashes out the more adora just becomes Shera because adorq herself feels no use to anyone
