Not to stir up trouble, but the Aphmau fandom can be so hard to be in sometimes cause all of us have increasingly strong parasocial relationships with characters who kinda sucked
#GUILTY AS CHARGED IM A LAURANCE STAN LMAO#and I'm actually mostly talking abt myself here but I notice similar traits with everyone else here#most of us were obssessed as kids/teens and going back we still like characters in similar ways#like obviously there's maturing and stuff#but I will die a fucking Laurance stan#but like for those of us in the trenches with the shipping wars#any valid critique of characters feels like we're 12 again and someone just said Aaron was better than Garroth or some shit#it's such a weird feeling???#I don't think I'm describing it well at ALL#but like#when I see someone point out why smth Laurance did was fucked up (and they are usually right)#my first reaction is the child inside of me screaming ''NO THATS MY LAURANCE HE IS PERFECT AND HE WOULD NEVER“#and my second reaction is ''calm the fuck down they're right“#its so hard to distance a series so steeped in my childhood from my childhood emotions#ig that's what I'm getting at#we're very prone to drama I think cuz these characters (for better or for worse) have permanent wiggled their way into our brains#and if there's smth wrong with the character there must be smth wrong with us for liking them (not true)
