trying to make henry homophobic when hes been abused and oppressed his entire life for being noticeably “different” (Which you know, you could actually read as being metaphorical to someone who is openly queer but what does my gay ass know lol) and that is literally the reason hes trying to fight to change the world so people like him who are “different” dont have to suffer under social constructs & systematic oppression, partic if you also hc him as queer, are still and will always be the worst takes on this character and in this fandom and I cant believe I keep having to see them in real time. 
#henry creel#vecna#001#peter ballard#being a villain doesnt mean hes homophobic#media has a long and documented history of instead portraying the gay people AS the villains not the homophobes#that honor usually goes to the heroes :^)#bc u know thats society!#but really#u can also have mike or will get vecna'd & have vecna point out their internalized homphobia without VECNA being homophobic#wild concept but its so possible & so easy#actually i dont think either of them have internalized homophobia what wills got is gay kid in the 80s & knowing#if he was open about it he would be literally hate crimed#and mike has if he is queer at all just u know not knowing it lol#none of that is homophobia internalized or otherwise#those are not things 'vecna' would use against them so to speak#signed your resident gay man who is also a vecna fan & suffering every day from these god awful and actually homophobic takes#like if u got the internalized homophobia ok im sorry but project it onto a character#who doesnt represent the abuse suffered by people who are openly 'different' & thus 'wrong' in the eyes of the shitty#oppressive & abusive society we live in that hasnt actually got that much better over the last 3 decades#like idk b*lly & jason are right there ??#why is it always peek homophobia in the name of shipping with you people we've been dealing with this since the 'yaoi' age smh#from this point on every time i see this shit im complaining about it#fuck that#I don’t want to apologise for Vecna’s murders – I’m not sorry
