Just had a Thought and now I'm curious. What's you guy's strangest comfort media? It doesn't have to be strange as in like creepy/fucked up/whatever, it can just be smthn a lil odd.
Adult PJO fans: "I can't relate to her if she doesn't look like me" "this is disrespectful to book!Annabeth" "I can't see her as the same character if she's black" "blonde, white women are soooo underrepresented in media. No one else can understand 😫"
Meanwhile, the actual demographic the show and books are for:
i know he's evil but i do have to respect Dracula for the sheer freak factor. like the man couldn't be less normal if he tried. THERE IS NO REASON TO SCALE THE WALLS LIKE A LIZARD. YOU OWN THE CASTLE. YOU CAN WALK. but no he is a little freak at heart and must be weird as fuck at all times lest he take psychic damage. and personally i can relate.
i just know neil's ass thinks about his father or riko getting shot from time to time like some grounding memory and ends up with a freakish smile on his face (andrew's sad he's deprived of the visuals he'd have loved to see it too)
in my head they are already married. shuro looks like an exasperated spouse and just when you think 'man does he even like him' laios reaches over to squeeze his hand with a smile and shuro goes red all over
just thinking about how if lewis told charlotte he was terribly afraid of the water & she decided to physically pick him up and carry him out over the sea while he begged her to stop & go back, there would be antagonistic music playing in the background, the girls would have immediately told lewis to break up with her or even intervened, the fandom would be making (more) hate posts, etc. to this day i cannot believe ash got away with that in the show
