Me, watching any media with Real-Life Actors: "Ugh, of COURSE the Main Couple gets together with zero chemistry, build-up, or tension besides some Bullshit Miscommunication for the sake of the third act's climax 🙄 Where's the Slow Burn??? Where's the Pining??? That Jane Austen Levels of Unrequited Angst and Longing Until the Sweet Release of Inevitable--"

Also me, watching virtually anything animated or reading manga: "Insta-Love Drama go BRRRRR 😍"

#Starling ramblings #fandom stuff #shipping #romance #can I still enjoy slow burn in animation? HELL YES but I'm VERY particular #Skip Beat has ruined me; if a slow burn isn't at Skip Beat level it ain't worth it #magical girl and harems are the worst at it: they think they're writing Slow Burn when it's actually One Giant Cocktease #Inuyasha has the happy middle ground; not as delicious as Skip Beat but not NEARLY as obnoxiously teasing as harems/magical girl series #but if Flesh and Blood People are on screen? GET OUT WITH THAT INSTANT LOVE SHIT!! GIVE ME MUTUAL PINING AGONY SWEETNESS OR GIVE ME DEATH!!#meanwhile over here in the anime/manga department: *casually snorting up Insta-Love shoujo series like a line of cocaine on a bar*#and don't get me started on Disney lmao I will DIE on the hill defending instant romances in those (animated) movies!!!#this is also why my fanfiction tastes in reading and writing gear towards Established Relationship or Insta-Love/Attraction lmao #my ONE outlet for Friends to Lovers 'slow burn' are Harmony fics (most of which are oneshots anyway lmaooooo)#but that's because THAT ship is NON-CANON; if the canon source material tortured me with a cockteasing slow burn #you'd BETTER FUCKING BELIEVE that I'm throwing myself into Insta-Love shit in fics lololol
