For Real, my aro-spec ass has NEVER been as convinced by a fictional romance than ed & stede in ofmd.
i think there's definitely several factors. the fact that they're believably best friends as well as lovers. the fact that despite the meet-cute it's not a situation of love at first sight. the way they're kind of tentative about affection in a manner that feels genuine for a relationship that needs mending. the amount of respect for each other's autonomy and boundaries present. the way they don't necessarily know everything about each other and still need to learn and grow. the way they don't necessarily fit perfectly all the time. the way they're sort of messy.
but really, i think the biggest thing is that they must each, on their own, find themselves before they can be together. the way the show does not compromise their individual arcs in putting them together.
there's this quote from wtnv that i've always loved when it comes to romantic relationships, and it's something i think about pretty often when i consider the sort of relationship i might like to have, and it's this:
"We are not one person. How lonely that would be, a couple who has made themselves one so completely that they are once again alone. We are two people: separate, unique, and joined only where we choose to join." (From E55)
and i know a lot of people like codependency in fiction, and so you see it pretty often in media featuring romance, but i just adore that ofmd doesn't do that. the show is their relationship, yes, but it's also. them. stede bonnet and ed teach finding their own ways to be true to themselves. each individual, apart, so that they may not get lost in the pair they make together.

Rephrasing this so I can make myself clear:
If you want to use a rewrite please be respectful; don’t push people into using rewrites and/or calling them bad people because of not using rewrites!
I do not support AB/Peters and being fictionkin is not equal to support. I don’t control who I kin, and I’m tired of people treating others as lesser bc of who they kin or what character they use. LIVE AND LET LIVE!!!

I'll be posting a little drabble party starting on Dec 8th and ending on Dec 15th to try and explore some other relationships and dynamics between the characters of the show we love.
Here's the schedule if you want to keep up (or even post something of 100 words for the same pairing along with me!):
Dec 8th: Jillian/Suzanne
Dec 9th: Mary/Shannon
Dec 10th: Camila/Lilith
Dec 11th: Ava/Beatrice
Dec 12th: Ava/Lilith
Dec 13th: Ava/Camila
Dec 14th: Mary/Lilith
Dec 15th: Jillian/Suzanne
They will all be tagged "mini drabble regatta" since they deal with, well, ships :)
Tumblr media
(yes, both Fridays are reserved for my traditional "doctor superion drabble Fridays", for those who are familiar with my blog -- I allow myself the liberty of giving my OTP emphasis :))

*sighs in post mildly broke containment again* there's nothing wrong with reading willow as a lesbian, this is a piece of fiction, and the post I made took on a jokey tone for a reason and is ultimately more about underlying bi-erasure on tv than anything else kaybye ✌
#im watching btvs#jeepers creepers but btvs is bringing out the *taking it all very seriously in a very morally high-and-mighty kind of way* crowd#and i dont mean about shit that matters such as discussing racism or misogyny in fandom#just about whether you agree or dislike someone's read of a situation - move on my friend if you dont agree#i mean i could go on a rant about HOW the show portrayed willow-the-now-lesbian#(and while im at it why i hc buffy-the-apparent-heterosexual as bi too but nobody has disputed that part oddly enough)#but that would be an effort im truly not interested in expending on this day and possibly never and has been written before#im mostly just live-blogging and moving on#if im writing anything fanfic-wise it'll be about kendra and that'll be my full fandom contribution#ok but the ONE thing i'll mention is the fight willow has with tara which is one of the rare Ls for tara#where she basically admits that she's afraid this is a phase because willow has loved men/been with oz#and that's just an interesting fight from a meta perspective because the idea that bi women have to *choose a side*#and are consistently questioned and doubted by their lesbian partners#is a core element of biphobia within a gay relationship that many people can attest to#hell it's a big part of bisexual rep that is conscious of itself that at some point there's a plotline where the person is questioned#about their true loyalties and asked to take a side#btvs ofc is NOT conscious of this underlying tension and in fact i would argue is agreeing with tara that this is what needs to happen#for several other reasons as well#but literally people have WRITTEN about this im not saying anything bold and controversial here AND it doesnt take away#from lesbian willow reads to acknowledge the flawed approach of the show to her sexuality like come on#willow rosenberg

maria i was SO confused by that joshua post for a second i was like "wait i've been mutuals with her for several years at this point and i don't. think this is how she thinks about joshua???" and then i got to the end 😭
I’M SORRY I’M SORRY i realize the first part of that post must’ve been a shock to read LOL. i forget sometimes that not everyone has timestamps enabled that post was from exactly 3 years and 1 day ago. i am wiser than that now. i only reblogged it bc someone else did and i was like worried it would gain traction off of them ig

I feel that I have to put a message for incest/pedo shippers in my posts, because they just keep coming. Although I always thought it stupid to put those sentences, they don't make posts look good. But I am tired. Why are there so many and they don't stop coming?

This is a really small thing but just a pet peeve of mine and nothing bad towards anyone but like:
if you wanna discuss a ship u personally don’t ship under a ship post I made, than respectfully can y’all take that to DMs. I don’t rlly want to see notifications about that
I don’t interact AT ALL with ships I personally don’t get/ship so I’d like to keep that energy on my blog as well 👍 if you don’t get it, I don’t need to know or want to know
^wanna say all this now before any flood gates open, aka just address a situation before it becomes a actual bigger situation
Anyways I don’t like ending stuff a bit sour so here’s Goose, he has a unlimited supply of mustaches, if you take one off there’s another right under it 🏃🏻🏃🏻 inspired off a little post Boa had shown me of an Anonymous Goose— Goose with a fake stache over his already existing one lol

Okay, I'm officially weirded out. I've encountered two people recently - and one whose art I really like, who don't have my main blog blocked and don't have my Trigun sideblog blocked but have all of my other sideblogs blocked? (I have taken to the practice, before I bother reblogging something from someone, of going to the replies and going down the list of which blogs can reply to an OP or reblog. If I see any of them faded out, I know that specific blog is blocked). My best guess is that I annoyed them in another fandom and they decided to block all of the blogs they knew I had connected from one fandom blog or another, including, apparently, my very barely-used original art and writing blogs. Considering I do not recognise the names of either of them outside of Trigun fandom, I don't think they are anyone I've personally had any beef with in the past, although they might be friends of friends of people I had beef with? Or perhaps they just really, really didn't like a ship or a character preference of mine. I am assuming that, simply because one of my past fandoms had CHARACTER!OPINIONS! and subsequent ship-wars and there were a LOT of people who would just block you outright if you happened to like one certain character or another certain character. (I thought it was ridiculous, but oh well). Seems like a dumb reason to block my seldom posted to original art blogs, though.
