like I like the piece of gum and vampire and all, but the appeal of their relationship TO ME is the specific context of the original adventure time plot: two immortals who find solace in each other as a reprieve from their loneliness, folks who are drawn to each other as a result of the choices they made which brought them to this point ..
The “in love in every dimension” trope kind of cheapens it for me, it’s like the soulmates concept, it’s like they’re biologically determined to be together BLUH not as interesting
But I think everyone is having fun watching, I haven’t heard any negativity for f&c so that’s good :)
Think xena is forever my favorite example of love transcending lifetimes/dimensions/timelines/etc
The fact that they did that shit in the 90s so well n now it’s a craze for media in the present is astonishing, and tbh as it continues to be prevalent in pop culture it’s losing its effectiveness for me
#well disclaimer I haven’t even watched Fionna or cake#urrrrrrrgh sorry it’s just I’m like seein bubbline tryin to kill each other or whatever and I’m like! that’s not why I’m here!#BUT at has had these parallel dimension things going on for quite awhile so it’s not like that’s a random bandwagon they’ve just developed#its just that I liked it when it was kept to a minimum :)#you see .. less of something you like is better some times ..
