#north can be an overhated character with overlooked likeable qualities AND we can still say simarkus should've been real

hi. i saw your post about north haters. i actually hate her because simarkus was supposed to be canon but they decided to use north instead

yeah i strongly disagree with hating her Period but i can't stop you from having an opinion i guess .. it's just the whole "dastardly woman getting in the way of my ship" mumbo jumbo that makes me scratch my head and sigh a little. love simarkus as much as the next guy but i also feel like north doesn't need to be thrown under the bus for people to acknowledge that her relationship with markus was forced and had mediocre writing. i would probably even Like them together if their relationship wasn't built around north's trauma and vulnerability in a way that comes off as weirdly misogynistic on david cage's part but alas! mr. cage is a notorious asshole who cannot sacrifice his bigotry for the sake of half-decent writing!! i feel like the only character that truly suffers from that relationship is north herself Because she has a character outside of it that kind of gets tossed out because her relationship with a man is deemed as somehow more important than her personality. but yeah i feel like going as far as to outright hate north for no reason other than the fact that her character was used as a love interest and simon's wasn't still isn't agreeable to me but i'm not going to shame you for it
