#problematic faves eh

[ttbret]

Who was the character you used as a base for your ianthe arcane paint over? Me and my partner have been trying to identify it lol

I used Caitlyn because she had the most similar facial structure to how I picture Ianthe, and god they’re a glorious pair of high maintenance bitches aren’t they? 🖤

[the-cat-and-the-birdie]

Okay I uhhhh know we say Hobie wouldn't listen to pop but can we just pretend that he'd listen to certain pop artists on respect alone?

Because it's funny? 😭

Like .. Hobie hearing Ke$ha and being like 'eh 😐' then he hears about her story and he's like 'they did WHAT to my girl?'

And then suddenly he's playing TikTok and Sleazy at full volume cause goddamn it we Support Women in this household. FUCK Dr.Luke and them, Stan Kesha.

Hobie who puts on Britney Spears before going on a rant about the misogyny of the music industry and their demonization of mental illness and how Toxic is actually A REALLY REALLY good song if you just listen to it seriously mate it's really good

Beyonce??? Hobie and Beyonce??

MetroSpider introduces Hobie to the Lemonade album and Hobie hears Formation and CANNOT STOP LISTENING.

Be walking around talking bout some 'When he fuck me good I take his arse to Red Lobster'

'Don't Hurt Yourself' - his favorite song on that album.

He listens to Ed Sheeran when he thinks no one can hear him. Be in the shower SCREAMING along to 'Don't' and 'Shape of You'

Lord have mercy when he heard S&M by Rihanna. On replay FOR WEEKS.

Metro and Hobie are chilling and WAP comes on and Hobies sitting there hearing them talking about him spitting in their mouths and giving them kids and Hobies like 'true lyricists they are.' completely unphased

'Born This Way' by Lady Gaga? That woman has his upmost respect. All rise for his national anthem.

I just think it's funny. Like I know I know but is it not funny. Hobie having exceptions that are not problematic secret faves but him openly supporting the oddest of pop artists that he feels are sticking it to Big Music.

Like let's be real we all know Hobie would be throwing it back to Lil Nas X and tbh I think that's funny

[gachagon]

The Arcane fandom seems to be struggling with whether or not any of the characters are good people and to put it simply: No, most of them are probably not good people.

But I like introducing others to league of legends lore so here's more characters from league that have complex morals in their backstories. When Fortiche begins work on the next show I have no doubt in my mind that there will be even more endless debates and name calling ensuing since League of Legends has a shocking amount of "problematic faves" in its roster.

1. Garen Crowngaurd

He looks like a generic white man in armor with a big sword. When I saw those debates about whether or not Jayce was a good guy or not for shooting and killing Viktor, I kind of already knew that this fandom is definitely not going to be able to handle mr. "I need to be constantly stressed and worried about my life in order to function" over here.

Garen's issue is that he's a loyal knight for a nation that is very, VERY racist against mages and people who use magic in general. And his sister is a mage. He has always known this deep down, but has been suppressing the knowledge of it because the stress of worrying about it keeps him going anyways (weird guy, i know) and even though he KNOWS he's imprisoning people just like his sister, he is too loyal to Demacia (the kingdom they're from) to stop his servitude. So he is a "good guy" who hunts mages to either imprison them or kill them (if they "resist" too much), and he knows his sister is a mage but doesn't want to quit his whole knight job. (it's more complex than that but you could read more here on the website)

2. Sylas

If we ever get a Demacia series that's animated, I already know that everyone and their mom will just make thirst edits of this man and his "inspirational" quotes about revolution and stuff. Meanwhile, they'll excuse all his abhorrent behavior, crimes, and abuse because he's fighting back against an oppressive regime so he must still be a good person despite all of that! (he is not)

Sylas is a mage who was imprisoned in Demacia and has been kept in prison for a long time after he was wrongfully accused of killing someone with his magic. Ever since, he's been in prison plotting for a way to get out. He does escape, hence the name "The Unshackled".

While Sylas' motivations are pure in that he wants to live in a Demacia where mages aren't persecuted against for just having magic...he kind of has a very violent way of going about it where he not only imparts violence on random non-mage civilians, but also forces other mages to do violence as well. He's cool and I do like Sylas, and his story is a complicated tale about revolution and particularly about the use of violence to free yourself, but is he a "good" person? Eh....its up to interpretation in my book (he's probably not a good person lol)

When I saw people debating on whether or not Caitlyn was a "fascist" or if Viktor was a "Eugenicist" I couldn't help but think the Arcane fandom wouldn't be able to really handle a "true" revolutionary like Sylas who just wants freedom by any means necessary and the moral implications of that in his story.

Sylas not only has a short story and bio that you can read here but there's also a really good game that Riot made called The Mageseeker where you can play as him and meet the other Demacia characters.

3. Sejuani

Sejuani is the "Warmother" of a clan of viking(?) people named the Winter's Claw. She's also my favorite Freljord character because I find her way of surviving in the Freljord interesting. Sejuani's issue or moral quandry is that she is whole heartedly all for raiding and pillaging other villages and small settlements to survive the harsh winters of the Freljord, and doesn't see anything really wrong with killing people who are weaker than her if it means the people closest to her can survive.

Despite all of this, you still get the sense that she's not a "terrible" person because she still cares about all of the men, women, and children in the Winter's Claw (it's just fuck everyone else in her book lol) Sejuani used to have a "sister" (they weren't really blood related but they still have a somewhat sisterly bond anyways?) who is most definitely the reincarnation of a dead Freljord Goddess/Queen (long story)

Anyways, her and her sister had a falling out because they couldn't agree on the way to get resources for everyone in their clans. Ashe wanted to start agriculture and farm life in the Freljord, where as Sejuani thinks just taking shit from other people is the fastest and surest way. Sejuani is interesting to me because her view on violence is one that's pretty straightforward but not set in disdain towards the other people she pillages. Like, she doesn't do all of this stuff because she hates people, she's doing it because she truly views violence as the only way to get what you need, and as long as she's doing it for a good cause, which is to clothe and feed the many people of the Winter's claw, than there's nothing to really worry about.

If you were one of those people who were really wondering if "hm maybe Ambessa had a point...?" then you're in luck because you'd probably really like Sejuani too T_T You can read more about her here.

4. Viego

If there was a contest for THE problematic king of League of Legends it'd be Viego. He looks cool and is most definitely a villain but a lot of fans can't really seem to wrap their heads around it. Viego's story is that he was a king of a really cool nation, and he fell in love with a Seamstress named Isolde. Cut to a few months later, and she died (rip) and this made Viego SO upset and heartbroken that he quite literally used dark magic to bring her back, but it caused something called The Ruination.

He wanted to bring Isolde back to life, but the process of doing that means he quite literally is bringing about the end of Runeterra completely. His kingdom fell first and became the Shadow Isles, which is this desolate wasteland where anyone who goes there just dies or has their soul ripped from their body forever (spooky).

If people can excuse Viktor turning everyone into statues forever and destroying the entire world with rune magic, then I don't see why THIS guy can't be forgiven. Plus he's doing it for "true" love :3 (i can't stand him lol)

If you want to read about him there's actually an entire book series about the Ruination that you can read. And you can see more about Viego and his Harrowing in the game "The Ruined King" or you can just read his bio and short story on the website.

[epickiya722]

I know people who justify Bakugou and how he behaved because he was being abused. And all I can think was how bullshit that it.

Todoroki was abused, and it was honestly worse, and he didn't do that. Sure he was a hero, but he pushed people away.

I don't mean to trauma dump, but I was neglected and had a unhappy childhood. I didn't go around doing what Bakugou did.

I will say Bakugou did get better, but it really annoys me seeing people justify his behavior in middle school.

...I forgot people do that. Even Bakugou admits that how he behaved is wrong??

It's something that a character will do something wrong and do things to better themselves while also admitting that their previous actions were garbage... that's growth... and the "fans" will make excuses for them.

That actually reminds me of a post I saw so long ago of this person being "anti Midoriya" because Bakugou cried. Mind you they were talking about from season ONE. That time Bakugou confronts Midoriya after their first class battle? Yeah, that part. Apparently, Midoriya was in the wrong for hiding his Quirk away from him even though by that time they weren't even close, Midoriya had to hide his Quirk to protect people, and it wasn't his business.

It's "fans" like that I will never get because shifting the blame onto another character does nothing for the story!

"Fans" giving excuses takes away from that character's development, thinking about it.

Their wrongs should be acknowledged just as much as their rights that way you get a better understanding of that character and why they developed the way they did.

Characters can also be a reflection of how we are. Text to self connection!

There are been people who have been abused and wouldn't treat others the same way. Todoroki is that character here. He was abused and the most he did was be isolated from the class at first.

Now, there was that moment of Endeavor angering him and Sero end up getting the worst of that (every time I think about it, I just cringe because that ice scares me). I get it was a match, but still it just... eh...

The thing with some of these characters is that what happens to them does affect what they do to others. Pointing out the causes shouldn't be used to justify their actions. It's to understanding the story.

Example: Toga had a terrible life and in turn, she ended up the way she did. To point out her bad life isn't to justify her actions, however some people in the fandom probably have does so. Her bad life is the cause that should recognized why she does and behaves the way she does to understand. Not excuses.

But what's crazy is that those same people who will defend Bakugou will condemn Toga. Hmm... I wonder...

No matter their past and what they do later, wrong is wrong. Recognizing that wrong as wrong will help determine what can be done to make a situation better.

I do feel like it's gotten to the point in fandoms that haters of a character will go "if you like this character, you're just like them" so the fans of that character feel like they have to make excuses of their wrong actions. And it sucks.

Then, like the haters, they're not really getting that character's development or ignoring it. Bakugou is one of those characters.

Haters be pressed about people actually liking certain characters instead of just moving on. There are some characters that aggravate me, but I do not care if people like them. Yeah, I would be curious as to why they're like, but I know people will feel the same about my favorites and I just move on because it's a waste of my time.

Excuse my language, folks, but fuck those haters. Acknowledge that your fave have done wrong and this whole "If you like this character you're problematic" is stupid. I'm sorry, it is. "Problematic" is on the list of words I can't stand, have been misused too much and should be taken away from the fandom.

Anyways!

Bakugou knows he was an ass in middle school, no one made excuses for it. No, folks, not even Midoriya because he even comments that what Bakugou said was wrong. It's okay to admit that he was a jerk in middle school and still like him.

Characters are parts of a story, they serve to entertain and tell that story. If you happen to like that character, then the writer has done that job in entertaining you and giving a compelling story.

Okay, I'm rambling here. Sorry about that!

[cyarskaren52]

this is why I hate stan culture especially when they’re doing this for their problematic fave

First I was like, "Waaaaa?", then I went down my xitter feed a bit and was like, "ooohhh...yea. I get it now. Wow."

I'm giving her all the flipping the birds

btw did you know that her alter ego Roman zolanski was inspired by Roman Polanski , the same Roman Polanski who was a fugitive for rape and yet despite this , he still has Oscars and made movies and he has never paid any consequences for being a rapist. People were cancelled for a lot less than what he did.

Queen of rap, eh? Let’s add the letter e at the end of the word rap and that’s what she’s really the queen of.

that’s why #QueenOfRape is trending on Twitter because she stands with rapists and pedophiles even in her own family, heck even her own husband.

Btw Real queens don’t support people who commit rape

[alexas-fandom-and-random-blog]

extremely curious what's ya stance on strixxie and striker himself nowadays!

Woooo boy! Well I've written an over 130.000 words fanfic on Strixxie and a sequel on the works plus a couple of smaller ones on the side so you can safely say I'm still very much OBSESSED with the pair!😍

I love all of the nemesis tropes they have in canon! Their antagonistic chemistry is top notch and I stan all flavors of enemies to lovers that have the potential to come with it! I love the mutual canon animosity and constantly challenging each other vibes that I can be delulu with and interpret as thick sexual tension!

Some darker problematic stuff is honestly still a big part of the appeal to me as much as mushy stuff could be depending on execution and aaaaaah I just adore ships that can have such range!

Plus it gives me stuff to grab onto in canon like Striker fucking drooling in their last encounter like hello???? And also of course Moxxie being a little badass and pulling that glorious uno reverse on him that had me weak fahscahfagafavavsfksfs!😫💞

Ahem.

Yeah.😅

As far as Striker goes he's still my fave character! But I do think the harvest moon festival had him at his peak and some elements got a bit messed up with Western Energy. They didn't completely ruin him tho. The only parts I couldn't stand were some jokes I thought really didn't work for him like that god-awful statue and a couple of random outbursts of anger I found ooc.

If they kept those away along with the questionable decision of having Stella call him off for that reason and him revealing all his cards as an assassin so publicly prior, honestly the rest I don't mind at all. The entire Stolas torture scene in a vacuum is absolutely flawless, along with the fight with M&M. Those were some good shit. Especially with Moxxie hehe😏 I really loved how they showed much of Striker's character via that fight, like being cunning and badass and reveling on the challenge. Very fun villain stuff to see!

And I enjoyed him in Oops even if the plot to bring him there was contrived. He was handled a lot better I think. Again excluding some questionable logic like why would Fizzarolli's performance ever distract everyone like that. But eh comedy is subjective and all.

Speaking of which I really hope the team up with Crimson wasn't an one off thing cause wooo boy is that plot point fascinating!!

Both of Moxxie's majorly thematically villains teaming up is just ripe for juicy drama. I am wishing for a follow up on that so badly!!!!

So yeah overall still love Striker a lot while choosing to ignore some elements of his character that the writers added and that annoyed me and that's the tea. Well that's my general experience with hellaverse in general anyways. Along with the pacing that messes some stuff up.

I can't wait to see him again! And more Strixxie scenes too!

Thanks a lot for the ask!!

Getting the chance to gush over all this is always very fun!😃❤️

[play-rough]

8, 21, 22, & 25 for Dazai and Chuuya 🥹💕

🩵❤️‍🔥

8. What's something the fandom does when it comes to this character that you despise?

Dazai- god i feel like I’m so picky about Dazai characterizations and it’s so hard to describe sometimes I’ll just be like NO THATS WRONG��️ but I guess one thing is when Dazai mentoring ryunosuke is just boiled down to a black and white situation where Dazai was soooo abusive to poor ryu (and i feel like this is a disservice to akutagawas character too), but Iike you have a child raised in a strict mafia environment and then you give that unstable child control over *another child* it’s not gonna go well, and i don’t personally blame either of the children in that scenario 🙄 idk BSD just has a lot of complex situations and I feel like they’re not always handled as such 😌🩵 Wtf this morally grey character is making problematic choices??? Cancel him🚫

Chuuya- when he’s just angry shouty guy who yells and shouts, sometimes I feel like I’m looking at a bad bakugo parody 😭

21. If you're a fic writer and have written for this character, what's your favorite thing to do when you're writing for this character? What's something you don't like?

Ummm for Dazai i like making him break down and cry and forcing him to admit he needs help or attention 🥺👉👈 or sick or just any kind of general vulnerability, and flip side for Chuuya, I love forcing him to admit he’s worried about Dazai or cares about him. My favorite part of Chuuya’s character is that he’s a genuinely nice person, Dazai is just so annoying and pushes his buttons, so I love showing off Chuuya’s softer side and highlighting his protective and caring nature. That scene where chuuya watches Dazai get slammed into a tree by lovecraft x1000000❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

22. If you're a fic reader, what's something you like in fics when it comes to ths character? Something you don't like?

For both of them like I said above im so picky and if you make them one dimensional or even if the vibes are bad I’ll just be like NO THATS WRONG‼️ and close the fic

Something i *like* is pretty much my same answer for 21 ajdhhfhdjs I really only write about what I like reading about so I’m a sucker for vulnerable Dazai and sappy Chuuya BUT for a more specific, ridiculous, self indulgent answer i like when Dazai is written regressed 🥹🩵 or even if he’s baby, just in energy 🥺🩵 Dazai is baby and should be written as such

25. What was your first impression of this character? How about now?

First impressions of Dazai was i don’t even remember him, I read the first bsd book at the library when I was in middle/high school (don’t remember exactly when) and was like eh. Boring. I think it didn’t help that they didn’t have all the books so it was like volume one, three, five, prime numbers only. I think I read soul eater instead lmao. Flash forward to college I had seen bsd characters and i liked the designs, and i had figured chuuya would be my favorite bc he kinda reminded me a bit of Karkat from homestuck (a dear fave of mine at one point) in that angry but actually sweet and kindhearted kinda way.

I was still eh whatever about Dazai, which is crazy because I’ve seen him compared to both Gojo and Reigen in the silly mentor who lost the kids he’s custody of kinda way, and those two are some more faves of mine. Tbh i didn’t solidify him as my fave until we learned of his tragic past because my OTHER favorite kind of character is a rude little bastard, and i was shown the light. Dazai Osamu has the range. He’s like a two for one, which I’m pretty sure he’s a Gemini??? I’m not gonna google and confirm just trust me i think he’s a Gemini ♊️

Impressions now obviously Dazai is my babygirl, my soaking wet cat, my poor pathetic meow meow who has both never done anything wrong and also committed so many war crimes. Chuuya I knew i would like him and I do lmao, close second from Dazai. I think Dazai is pretty much my ultimate fave character of all time…

[stickers-on-a-laptop]

gokaiger for the fandom ask game!!

let's go(kaiger!)

blorbo: joe!!!!!!!!! thank you sir for the yamada yuki brain rot! -- (favorite character, character I think about the most)

scrunkly: tbh luka. let's go sword lady!! -- (my “baby”, character that gives me cuteness aggression, character that is So Shaped)

scrimblo bimblo: navi!!! poor overworked NOT a bird! -- (underrated/underappreciated fave)

glup shitto: does jealoushitto count? is he obscure really? eh him anyways -- (obscure fave, character that can appear in the background for 0.2 seconds and I won’t shut up about it for a week)

poor little meow meow: isn't sid kinda the poor little meow meow of gokaiger? i dunno -- (“problematic”/unpopular/controversial/otherwise pathetic fave)

horse plinko: let's go into the plinko basco time to pay for your crimes -- (character I would torment for fun, for whatever reason)

eeby deeby: gai jetman jk i dunno who this would QUITE be? warz gills i suppose -- (character I would send to superhell)

[st-just]

I would say your problematic fave is the archangel of terror.

'the Angel of Death' was the better title imo.

Anyway depending on how you're defining 'high modernism' the death toll is somewhere between 1 an 3 orders of magnitude beyond anything the Terrorists ever accomplished. so eh, agree to disagree.

[elithilanor]

ooo for the character ask meme, gimme Haldir

As requested, mellon 😏 Thanks for the ask! It’s always fun when you pop up 🥰

1: sexuality headcanon

I agree that most elves are pansexual but I also hc him as pretty demisexual honestly.

2: otp

He interacts with so few canon characters 😂😭 I can kind of get with Aragorn and Haldir honestly? But I also think he a) wouldn’t leave Lórien for extended periods of time unless to Sail and b) I honestly think he wants to live with his partner forever, emphasis on the immortal forever.

Fanfic wise: I love them and my ofc. But I also have a WIP with them and a masc elf and I also love them, your honor.

3: brotp

Lmfao outside of his actual bros? Legolas. That ima fuck shit up look on his face at Helm’s Deep. Aces

4: notp

Thranduil x Haldir

I’ve seen it and I hate it

5: first headcanon that pops into my head

Such a soft boi 🥰 So gentle internally and I just think he’s really going to enjoy Valinor when he gets there. Let the elf not fight any more and maybe grow a garden or teach the art of weapons vs their usage and practicality.

Bonus because I talk about soft Haldir all the time: I hc that he has a sweet tooth. Not like the super sickly sweet stuff (though he will partake in candies occasionally) but the like super fresh and ripe fruits and berries sweet. The give me the cute little tartlets sweet.

Extra bonus: he really likes to learn new things, especially gentle practice skills like weaving or dying. I think according to LACE that’s considered (at least for Ñoldo) more women’s or child-bearers work, but eh. He’s not a Ñoldo to me and I hc Silvan and Teleri very different than Ñoldo.

6: favorite line from this character

Movie: “The dwarf breathes so loud we could’ve shot him in the dark.” He’s just so fucking snarky and I love it. In the book, Legolas says that’s what Haldir said but in the movie it’s just my snarky boi.

Book: “The world is indeed full of peril, and in it there are many dark places; but still there is much that is fair, and though in all lands love is now mingled with grief, it grows perhaps the greater.” Like he’s very clearly grieving for the loss of the world but he’s still so kind and hopeful 😭

7: one way in which I relate to this character

I spend a lot of time trying to make people comfortable (for better or worse) and he seems to attempt to do so similarly in the book.

8: thing that gives me second hand embarrassment about this character

Sometimes I think I write too much of myself into Haldir because I spend a lot of time wishing in some ways I was like him (because gender why)

9: cinnamon roll or problematic fave?

Cinnamon roll

But also problematic fave because acab

[turntheotherpurf]

the revs for the ask meme

1: Sexuality headcanon = I know he's always been a "ladies man" in the show... buuut, idk for some reason he kinda gives me repressed-Bi vibes? :o

2: Otp = No one really in particular... though that one crackship of him x Danielle lowkey sounds an amusing combo lol

3: Brotp = Him and Orel! :> I love the progression of them going from "snarky/reluctant mentor & student" to Putty genuinely appreciating Orel's enthusiasm overtime (esp during that "hopeless" scene)... its honestly pretty wholesome 🥺

4: Notp = While I get that Dino probably intended for them to get back together overtime... eh, I just don't think I can realistically see Putty x Florence lasting long, even with character development :c

5: First headcanon that pops into my head = He got into becoming a pastor through his father, as it was always tradition that the first born/only son of the family to take up leading the church. Deep down Putty always wanted to get into stand-up comedy though (hence his more "spiced up" sermons).

6: Favorite line from this character = Bruh, this dude has waaay too many quotable lines that its honestly hard to pick? .3. (though this one scene exchange w/ Clay in particular aways cracked me up alot lol)

7: One way in which I relate to this character = I like to sprinkle a bit of humor here and there when the situation strikes.

8: Thing that gives me second hand embarrassment about this character = Pretty much the whole way he treated Florence (+Dottie by extension) in the "Sundays" ep... yeaaaah I love ya Revs but, yikes- >>

9: Cinnamon roll or problematic fave? = A morally (heh) gray fave when it all comes down to it

[everysongineverykey]

whatabout burgerpants? (deltarune)

this guyyyyy

sexuality headcanon: probably straight. bicurious at the most. maybe has a weird gay thing going on with asriel and/or the blue bunny employee (nice cream man deltarune edition)

otp: eh i don't think this guy gets bitches. nicepants is a cute concept but idk if i really ship it in practice

notp: i dunno. him and undyne since he's like slightly implied to like her or whatever

brotp: he and asriel are funnyguys. love the thing toby said on the sixth anniversary livestream about asriel making him listen to christian ska bands and burgerpants pretending to like it but completely lying. that's hilarious

first hc i can think of: he was always backstage chorus in his high school plays. he's already drafting his oscars acceptance speech

favorite line: "'be a team player, there's no i in p'e'zza!' YES THERE IS. YOU JUST TOOK IT OUT." i love the way it's written. his talksprites are the GREATEST

way i relate to him: uhhh we're both theatre kids i guess. other than that i hope i NEVER find myself relating to him

secondhand embarrassment: his whole entire life.

cinnamon roll/problematic fave: i hate this question.
