Draco Malfoy is not the only problem with Dramione
Look, am I the only one who hates Dramione not because of Draco but HERMIONE?
Dramione antis (often Draco antis I notice) usually paint Draco as the toxic person in this ship undeserving of Queen Hermione. How he's a cowardly, dumb ferret and Hermione deserves a real man.
You know what Hermione deserves? A consuming career and a house full of cats! Ron can have her! I feel like I am dissing myself when I diss Hermione since I see a lot of my academic self in her but who the hell sees Hermione as wife or mother material??
No one deserves to be in a relationship with someone who hates them. Hermione is no exception. Hermione does not deserve to be in a relationship with a guy who stands by while she is being tortured or hurls slurs in her face. Or thinks she is worth less than trash.
But based on canon, we know who is more likely to attack their partner and commit domestic abuse. It ain't Draco. Like...do you not see how this girl treats Ron?! The guy she's supposed to like?! While Draco has never laid a hand on her, even when this girl slapped/punched him for no justifiable reason. Him making fun of Hagrid is not justifiable. Slap him when he calls you a mudblood and then we can talk Hermione.
Draco does anything to upset her and this vindictive shrew would probably turn him into a bug and squash him. Or maybe poison him. Or turn him into a bouncing ferret for nostalgia (I read a Dramione fic where Hermione did this - that definitely killed my recent short-lived Dramione reading spree). Magic provides a myriad of possibilities :).
At least with Draco, we don't really see him mistreating his (female) friends. None of his actions towards Hermione is irredeemable. After thorough redemption and maturity, he would theoretically treat Hermione well. His parents may be hostile but he can always just give them the finger the way he did for dear Astoria. Hermione on the other hand is shown to be constantly abusive to Ron yet she's one of the heroes of the story, hardly ever called out for her appalling actions. People need to wake up from their Draco hate and recognize Hermione's flaws as well in this ship. It's more than just her not forgiving him. She would literally hurt him. Like she already hurt Ron! And her own parents!
My mother told me that if your loved one hits you once, you need to leave. Immediately. Ron should have dropped Hermione as a potential love interest the second she attacked him. Because she will do it again when she gets angry.
So yeah, Ron can keep her. Poor Ron. Hermione is hardly a catch. For anyone calling me a sexist, that kind of attitude is not cute in a dude either.
Draco can do better than her. But literally, almost anyone is better than Hermione (I'll be over here enjoying my Druna content).
Actually, the only guy who probably deserves Hermione is Harry Potter himself. She actually seems to be sweeter to him and respects him more than Ron lol. Those two can be vindictive, inconsiderate psychos together while Ron finds better friends who don't see him as a dumb loser. Oh, and Ginny can find a guy who won't dump her the second she cries (like that "crybaby" Cho) or excludes her. Harmione is practically a match made in hell.

GRESSIL is bisexual, Gladiolus/Raven is straight, Poppy is pansexual, Oak is bisexual, and Nightshade/Bella is a lesbian!

There’s a lot on my head—
namely, a head,
like Marie Antoinette
used to have—
and King Charles
(the First)—
(the new one—whatever)—
(I think he still has one,
but it’s not in great shape).
But what of the mind?
Never mind—
but the body, it burns.
And I lie in my bed
looking at Joan of Arc
in a BBC feature—
condemned with a baby
(or, bastard)—
oh, Joan,
or Jeanne, la Pucelle—
a poor little maid
that a poor little Bard
suited up—in fine armor
to slutshame.
Oh well.
Oh well,
well well well
I’m not feeling these days
but for movies and books
that I gaze on. Praise God
for recurring malaise
and disease—
I’ve been struck with
for fifteen years now...
quite a chunk of my life
when I’m just 24,
and my grandmother’s baby—
(my grandmother’s dead)—
(but she wasn’t, before).
No, all four
of my grandparents saw
me grow up—as this wretch—
little nine-year-old girl
full of needles, I am—
I continue to be
in my hospital bed
glued to the TV.
What integrity
I must inspire in my elders—
their wise niece and daughter
a weakling, for now—
(no, not now,
but forever)—
I take the remote
and flip to cartoons.
I wrote poetry once—
(I still do—in my head)
(that thing I still have... despite)
and I wrote it for years
and I’m writing it now
in force—
in rebellion against
the skin and the bones
and the muscles, not moving
without consequence—
but the mind—
and the body!—
being idle... I hate it.
Even more than the pain,
or the punishment I submit to—
to claim Me my own
over this, my fatigue—
my war from some film
like a period piece—
so. I fight for some king?
Or for God? Heaven knows—
but I’m stylishly dressed,
eloquent, my last words
and woes of my tragedy—
(how nice that’d be)—
find heroic catharsis
for the audience to see...
but for Me? What of Me?
Oh, that’s Sunday. Or not.
Wait, it’s Friday?—They all look
the same in my house.
My garden’s no calendar,
my dog’s not my boss,
but my job is to live...
but loss... all of this—
losing years once again
of my bright little life.
Nana’s sore little girl,
I submit,
put my pen down again.
“Chorus—pretend Me I’m buried.” - a free verse poem written 7/07/2023

getting into g o t 7 (sorry dont want this to end up in search) has brought me a lot of joy but it's also very much a double edged sword bc now that i have some more insight into like, the general kpop industry (and i say general bc i know it's different for every idol/company etc etc) im like. seething sometimes lol. the constant 'dieting' and unhealthy work schedules, the (untreated) mental and physical health problems that many idols deal with, the way that they're barely allowed to visit their families even when the company has more than enough funds for that, or the way that theyre (most likely) forced to do things they might be and sometimes clearly are uncomfortable with for views (the more queerbait-y stuff), or even just the way that their own creative input and wishes for their own careers are very often and easily dismissed. idk dude. also the hairstyles that are forced upon them sometimes are disgusting.

Kagami would ordinarily be fully on the side of the mulan team(s?) however they completely reset all his progress with his resident clown. I'm not 100% sure how Kuroko reacts but I think he ends up with even more ball sports sickness than he started out with.
jokes aside being that an si is me and i am a woman that has dealt w men making the stupid argument that affirmative action to help more women in stem hurts men's chances of success...
lol kuroko will just need better curing. his personal hurt is not something si!kagami will place above a whole demographic's systemic discrimination and their form of protest
"just fucking watch. whatever your beef, you Don't wanna get between this shit"

If you want to share, I'd love to hear more of your Rise TMNT and DCU crossover, please!
I am so so glad you asked : D
I've been trying so hard for so long to think of how the Rise boys misadventures would align with DCU, mostly because I was thinking about post-movie JL investigations into the Kraang Invasion. HOWEVER, I was rewatching the series with a friend semi-recently and we hit the "Battle Nexus: New York" episode and it abruptly hit me that Superman--who is in the state of New York (bc in my version of canon, Metropolis is in New York and Gotham's in New Jersey, as god intended)--would probably be high-key alarmed about the City That Never Sleeps going completely silent except for four teens and five adults, one of which being clearly the one behind it all (that one being Big Mama).
That line of thought honestly made me entertain the idea of Superman being like...the Turtles' weird uncle figure who checks in occasionally like "you good?" but I don't know all of where I'd want to take a story like that.
This honestly kind of spun around in my head for a while until I was hit with a lightning bolt of genius in the form of a very vivid daydream about Daily Planet Intern April O'Neil absolutely tearing into Lex Luthor because he had the sheer audacity to compare Superman to the Kraang in her presence, and a befuddled (and slightly flattered) Clark Kent holding her back from bodily attacking Lex like:
The fic that I'm writing is going to be a mega long one-shot of April being an absolute menace to the supervillain population of Metropolis. She's basically going to be a mini-Lois Lane but like five times more feral because this girl won't so much as flinch at the nonsense Supes deals with on the regular.
On the hero side, April kind of Tim Drakes her way into becoming Superman's unofficial-official sidekick on account of how she just forcibly inserts herself into dangerous situations and refuses to leave.
Hilariously, April doesn't put together that Clark is Superman for a while because her threshold for what constitutes as weird is so messed up that anything that Clark does that might flag as suspicious doesn't even ping for April. Lois and Jimmy have a bet in the background over how long it will take for April to figure out Clark is Superman.
Some other highlights knocking around in my head include:
April babysitting Jon for Clark and Lois so they can go on a date night. April cements herself as the coolest babysitter ever in helping Jon defend the Kent House from an incursion viscous tiny alien critters that Jon brought home from space on accident. Both are trying their hardest to not use powers in front of the other with mixed success.
On a similar note, April cultivating a big-sister relationship with Conner because you cannot tell me that he wouldn't fit right in with her collection of genetically engineered super-soldier brothers born from unethical experiments by a man convinced doing this will save his people, using DNA stolen from a powerful warrior he has homoerotic tension with (from a certain perspective regarding Lex and Clark, lol). Like seriously, Conner's backstory fits the Rise boys' so well. I can't not make April adopt him as little brother #5. Maybe for the hell of it I'll turn Conner into a turtle mutant and have him dick around with the Hamato boys, mostly in making Splinter question if he's been miscounting how many sons he has this entire time. Ah. Fic for another day.
The triumphant return of April's crane license (with bonus forklift certification)
Clark being a living jungle gym for this 4'10" menace to his confusion and everyone else's delight.
The Hamato boys making a surprise visit to the Daily Planet as April works with Lois on an article (because she missed their weekly call and the boys immediately assumed the worst) and April trying desperately to keep her dum-dum little brothers out of Lois's sight as they scamper around the office like it's a playground.
April unknowingly endearing herself to Wonder Woman when she stops by in civilian form to meet up with Clark for JL business.
April getting herself in way over her head trying to do a bit of investigative journalism alone and the Supers coming to bail her out (as a reminder to everyone--including myself--that April is not invincible).
And, of course, the reference to the Batman vs. TMNT movie that I mentioned in the last ask I did on this where the boys break into the Bat Cave and Donnie calls April to gloat that he was right about Batman's secret identity and meanwhile Clark gets a call from Bruce about the four teenage mutant menaces running around his lair and how they're connected to a specific Daily Planet intern Clark knows.
It's just really funny to me to imagine Rise!April being unleashed on Metropolis because Ninpo or no, I don't think anyone there would be prepared to handle the powerhouse that is April O'Neil. The villains of Metropolis quickly come to know and fear her because she will more often than not charge them with the nearest blunt object and somehow--despite not having a meta gene (they have checked)--she hits like a freight train and can keep up decently well with Supers (writing this out now makes me realize that it would be plausible that a conspiracy theory starts floating around Metropolis' criminal underground that April O'Neil is secretly Kryptonian in some capacity, only for it to be swiftly disproved when she grand-slams a chunk of Kryptonite into the Atlantic. Somehow this makes her more terrifying).
But yeah, April is just having the time of her life at this internship, blissfully unaware of how many minds she's breaking just being herself.
