Toxic yuri must be evenly balanced. Both lesbians/bisexuals involved must be equally deranged in different ways. No sunshine cinnamon roll meets grumpy ice queen bullshit in this house. Power dynamics might be uneven but not one-sided throughout. We are sicko4sicko only in this house.

Some people: "X character is better than Y" "No, Y character is better than X!"

Me: It would be awesome if X and Y kissed and dated.

Some people: ....

Me: What? It's the truth, they would look good together.

sun and moon coded couples mean something personal to me.

[undercover-grisha]

Zoya: “This is my husband, Nikolai.”

Nikolai: “Hello!”

Zoya: “And this is his boyfriend, Mal.”

Mal: “Hi.”

Zoya: “And this is his wife, Alina.”

Alina: “Nice to meet you.”

Zoya: “And this is Alina and I’s girlfriend, Genya.”

Genya: “Hi!”

Zoya: “And this is Genya’s husband, David.”

David: “How do you do?”

Nina: “Guys I was only gone for one year! What the fuck happened?!”

The Great Love Story of Grisha Trilogy in a Single Sentence:

She almost realized she has other options, so they were taken away from her.

The grishaverse has such amazing ships and has raised my standards far to high

[papenathys]

lesbians and bisexuals, always remember this: whenever you like a delicious, complex toxic yuri ship, especially a non-canon or non-endgame one, there will be people in fandom crying about how you have no taste. these people, self proclaimed champions of healthy lesbian fiction, will wonder why you condone abuse and ask you why you don't ship the better™ yuri ship. then they will point you to the aforementioned better™ yuri: it will be the blandest friends to lovers taylor swift cottagecore soft sapphic pairing the fandom can offer. you WILL be guilt tripped into shipping these mozzarella sticks instead of your toxic yuri.

remember: resist the urge. a truly good lesbian ship is one where they try to murder each other. thank you. have a nice night. subscribe to my channel for more inspirational speeches.

drinking game idea:

read the Shadow and Bone trilogy and take a shot every time Alina describes *in length* Genya and Zoya as the most beautiful people she had ever laid her eyes upon

idk what it is but canon couples are always slightly less appealing to me than the ones that aren’t explicity canon. it’s something about picking two characters because you love their dynamic and rooting for them even though you know it probably won’t happen.
