i'm feeling a bit mean rn so i'm gonna say something that will make (some) people have a small fit:

i hate the "mvk is homo/transphobic and mistreated miles/franziska for that reason" headcanon. it's stupid, imo. (more under the cut)

bro is like the poster child for old queer bitch! that old bastard is so! incredibly! queer!

if part of miles's queer-coding comes from his appearance/clothing, why can't the same thing apply to manfred? especially considering he is (sort of) the one who influenced that style in the first place? be fr.

and he + gant definitely explored each other’s bodies back on the 70s, so... 🤔 (/hj)

plus, idk. obviously he mistreated them, but why must it be attached to bigotry, rather than because he's just a terrible person? he can be "flat" and/or "unrealistic" in that way, y'all. it's okay. he's still shitty and awful; no one's denying that. i get that he's an old man who's backwards and evil and shit but can he be those things without automatically being a fucking bigot? damn.

#yo it's d :)#dev rants #my emotional support geezer #and i know why. it's because y'all like wasily digestible queer characters who are young and fight the system rather than let it #corrupt them. i get that. i like those characters too.#but in a narrative like that of aa where no one* has a confirmed/canon sexuality or gender id it's fun to play around with the idea that #the 'bad guy' is also queer alongside the hero rather than being the only queer/cishet.#*(ik: nahyuta. larry. others maybe? but nahyuta for sure is like. not *explicitly* gq. it's implied but not outright.#feel free to say he is tho)#also don't get me started on the racist hcs bc i'll be here all day. y'all are weird!!!! fr !!!!#seek help from professionals #also . fanon truly is stronger than canon bc y'all will make up the most off the walls shit and claim it's true
