#man I love

Chainsaw Man is one of my favorite stories because it never shies away from the hard questions. How do you form meaningful relationships after sexual trauma? How do you escape the cycle of abuse when it becomes more comfortable to you than "normal" life? How are the bonds you forge and the family you build stronger than what you were born into? And now, its newest philosophical quandary, just how cursed would elephants look if the concept and existence of ears were erased from the world!

FUCK YEAH GOOD OMENS FANDOM!!!!!!!!!!! TOP FANDOM OF THE YEAR HUH!?!?!?!!! LOOK AT THOSE NUMBERS!!!!! READ THOSE NUMBERS AND WEEP FOLKS!!!!!!

Though also can I just say I’m so proud that we have one of the few non-binary ships on both this list and the top ships of all times list????????? Like I mentioned this before but one of my favorite things about the GO fandom is how free and absolutely whatever the fuck and purely utterly tolerant this fandom is about gender???? Like I love these guys???????

(Gushy rant about the GO fandom’s beautiful relationship with gender and expression down below oops I just started and couldn’t stop??)

Like I’m not ashamed (though maybe a little a lot embarrassed) to admit that this fandom was probably most definitely my non-binary awakening because it was just so strange and refreshing and completely new for me to learn this brand new little talked about side of how other people experience gender, and how they channel those experiences into Crowley and Aziraphale in their fanfiction and fanart and headcanons??? It was to a degree that I had NEVER EVER felt before and it shocked me?? Then I found myself weirdly SUPER relating to the descriptions of genderlessness and the pure careless neutral feeling about gender that I saw people talking and writing about???

And then, well, um, I MAY have accidentally discovered my gender identity from Aziraphale headcanons??????? Oops??????????

And Ive heard of plenty of other people who saw their own gender expressions reflected in Crowley or Beelzebub or Muriel!!!! ITS CRAZY!!! I’ve been in fandoms for years and years, but this is the first time characters have felt so freeing and moldable to however the fandom wants to love them and so so easy to love because we see parts of ourselves in them and parts we aspire to be and parts we hate but can’t help see the reasoning behind and it just makes everything feel so…..close???? Like these characters were made to be the furthest from basic stock characters they could, and they were made with a little extra room left over in them for the fandom to take and fill and make their own?????

I don’t even know where I’m going with this but I guess my point is: Dear Good Omens fandom, I FREAKING LOVE YOU??????? The pure and open freedom you allow people to express themselves and mold this story and these characters into a million different wonderful things is the most awe inspiring thing, and I never thought such a massive fandom would feel so welcoming and tolerant and flexible and fluid and expressive and diverse and AGGGHGAHAHGHH EVERYTHING I GUESS

God I really hope no one reads this cause this is probably the gayest shit I’ve ever written. I just wanted to celebrate but then it turned into a rant of the secret private super duper uber gay reason I love this fandom.

Oh well

“They gave me runway in this film. There’s one monologue in there. I can’t tell you the details of it. I say more words in that monologue than I said in an entire movie once as Wolverine. But there are sides of the character that I’ve been scratching at for 24 years […] There is stuff in this movie where I was like, ‘This is the thing I’ve been trying to get out’ and I feel so excited about it.”

Do you have a preferred Dark Urge outside of your own OC? Do you ever find it difficult to read other people’s Dark Urge fics, whether it’s because of their interpretation of the character, or their appearance? What’s your opinion on ‘Default Dark Urge’ and their argued canon status?

Oh what an interesting question anon!

I'll start by saying I ADORE default Durge, I think it's a sick design and a fabulous vocal performance, but I don't believe there is a canon status when it comes to ANYTHING in D&D. Certain things may adopt a worldstate but I refute canon in anything based in this system.

As far as preferred Dark Urges I would legitimately find it really hard to chose individuals because there are so many I strongly like, probably more than Tavs, and I'd be worried I'd miss one off. I read very extensively in the tags because there are some really incredibly creative takes on it. And I guess that's what I'm always looking for. Whether its changeling lore, or exploring body horror, or looking at the whole Bhaalspawn gender and breeding theme through a trans lens, or exploring cult dynamics, I'm always interested when people take a really good strong critical eye to a theme. There's SO many incredibly dynamic takes out there, I'm truly in awe of the fandom for that.

I read across redeemed and non-redeemed Durge too, as a point - I really love the case for both and as long as an author can sell me on motivation, I'm down. I guess that's where it can fall down for me. I'm not interested in a Dark Urge being attractive unless you explore WHY Bhaal made their spawn a smokeshow - is it to seduce, to be an attractive prospect for breeding? Similarly, why did he make them their race, their build, why would they be a Drow, or a Dwarf? What's their relationship to the world around them? Anything that's certain of its own lore, that takes creative risks, that has a well-drawn character, I'm likely to love.
