#can’t wait for the local dumbass’ 2 cents

[illcasthealinghands]

welcome to my stream of consciousness because i’m bad at words: i’m so glad that i’m not on cr twitter and my corner of tumblr doesn’t buy into the weekly discourse from those who need to find a problem with the cast

like people who are still saying that sg was baiting because it wasn’t one of the main focuses of their arcs it’s almost as if asking the dm to spend more time on a romance would be unfair on both matt and liam because it takes time away from the actual plot and the other people at the table

sg wasn’t a focal point of either character’s story and it doesn’t have to be to be considered representation and to label it as malicious is exactly why mainstream media doesn’t touch us because it’s wrong to prioritise a queer relationship but also wrong to not do that? pick a lane and stay in it.

and people calling by predatory and fetishising because the cast make sex jokes and marisha posted about her lockscreen, it’s pretty apparent that the cast have a generally crass sense of humour and will apply that to whoever of their characters they choose (except caduceus after he said he ‘wasn’t into that’ wow so harmful) women having an interest in sex isn’t allowed i forgot.

people wouldn’t have a problem with this if marisha was openly queer but yes let’s pressure a group of people who are consciously private about their lives to justify the five minutes of outrage from people that have nothing better to do than consume the free content we get from these people and then spam abuse

wlw being comfortable in their sexuality after a campaign of growth and supportive moments is fetishising but because mlm didn’t kiss or fuck in game yet still got confirmed is baiting and you want to talk about fetishising queer characters that’s awful funny isn’t it

#i’m TIRED #critical role #beauyasha #shadowgast #there is no satisfying these people #it was apparent from day one that essek couldn’t even handle the nein wanting to be his friends #and in about five minutes you all wanted him to go off on this fairytale with caleb #like that would’ve done anything other than remove the seriousness of his story of self discovery and regret #yes caleb showed his affection but all the time said that it was complicated and he had more important things to do than worry about romance #that doesn’t mean it’s fucking baiting because you didn’t get an episode of them making eyes at each other #i wanted more as well but i understand that by the end it was still something that needed to develop and if there had been more episodes #it would’ve happened in game but hey ho that’s how a game about dice goes #people giving marisha shit will never be surprising because for some reason she’s the one that people decide to pick on #she and ashley gave us a beautiful story about finding love #for them it was a focal point especially for yasha since this is the first time she got to love someone openly! #for them it was an important part of their story and that’s not fetishising #let the lesbians be in love and be attracted to each other god damn #i’m so annoyed #the percentage of the fandom that need to get in the bin is too fucking high #can’t wait for the local dumbass’ 2 cents #come on then change my mind
