romantic sunturine/avenday makes me so genuinely uncomfortable

platonic frenemies ? sure it would literally be so funny to see these two bicker and fight

but romantically ? not if we are talking about the portrayal this ship gets in the fandom. sunday mentally tortured aventurine and for SOME REASON people think aven, the dude who builds 10 walls around himself constantly in fear of being vulnerable enough to be hurt, would be into him/flirt with him after that. its insulting to his character to portray aven as romantically interested in sunday.

IN ADDITION people act like they both would be toxic WHAT DID AVENTURINE DO WDYM😭kakavasha lied to him sure but he didnt do anything bad enough to warrant MENTAL TORTURE from sunday. another issue is that people think these two are equally toxic when it would mainly be toxic from sunday's side; furthermore, sunday has a whole savior complex and is suffocatingly controlling, if you know aventurine well enough u would see that this goes against aventurine's interests/beliefs completely as a former enslaved person AND HEAR ME OUT ! my complaint isnt with this fact on its own, my complaint is that people miss this important detail in their relationship completely and don't acknowledge it. which leads to mischaracterization !

in my personal, subjective opinion, sunday deserves someone who would genuinely likes him and not be uncomfortable with him and AVENTURINE deserves a good healthy relationship with someone who did not mentally re-traumatize him. but thats an opinion. an objective FACT is that mutually romantic sunturine has potential for a lot of mischaracterization and for it to be good, the messed up canon stuff has to be acknowledged

you can absolutely enjoy toxic yaoi and i understand the appeal 100% but at the very least make it ACCURATE to the characters and COMMIT dammit ! (Ｔ＿Ｔ）
