At the Hale House: Peter: This is a private matter. Derek: Stiles stays. Peter: [whispers] This is pack. Derek: [loudly] THAT'S WHY HE STAYS. Stiles: [tries to suppress a smile]

Me at three am when I remember Wolfstar is dead and all the shows long over.

Fanfic writing is vigilantism. Avenging the ships done dirty by cowardice and queerbaiting.

Or a way of living out a god complex when you’re introverted. But who am I to judge.

[celtic-poetry]

and thus you find the most beautiful fanfic ever but it has like barely any hits/kudos at all… it deserves all the recognition and then you think back at the one that’s almost fandom famous and it’s so badly written but everyone and their aunts have read it…… how come…how come

I love media where the underlying message is to be kind , even if it isn’t the main plot.

I love media where the underlying message is that you are not the worst mistake you made and you are not the worst thing that happened to you

I love media where the underlying message is that people can change for the better

I love media that’s like love, actually is all around us

I love media that’s like “we can’t save anyone.” “we can always try.”

If you even dare to touch him I'll murder you with a smile on my face.

The ones that broke me because they couldn’t be together and the ones that healed me because they also couldn’t be together, but did anyways.

Character A not knowing they have feelings for Character B until they have to go on with life without Character B, causing them to spiral into insanity (Bonus points if Character A starts to idolize Character B in a way that causes Character A to hallucinate)

If I have to say "These gay bitches" one more time while watching a ship that everyone ships, but doesn't happen in the show, I will lose it

The return of my Teen Merthur Au >:]

[magicalgirlypop]

honestly, i am so deep into magical girl fandoms that i forget their focus on female characters and sapphic ships isn't the norm in every fandom. like i was just watching this video because i needed some background noise while i drew

and i was so blown away by how male centered all the fandoms featured here are. m/m ships are the front and centre while f/f ships and female characters are pushed to the back. even in fandoms with a more platonic/family oriented focus, the relationships between male characters always take precedence over those of female characters. and you can't tell me "well, the female characters in x media just aren't well written" because male characters can be worse written and fandoms will take what little personality they've been given and make so many aus, hcs, fanart, fanfics etc. bbc sherlock fandom gave a male character who never even fucking appeared in the show a whole personality, backstory, characterization etc but never bothered to do the same with the female characters they claim were poorly written.

and honestly, its so sad. because there's so many good female oriented media and f/f ships out there but they just won't get the attention that male oriented media gets because people always need a man in everything. you can use the excuse of the female characters being poorly written all you want but even in media where they ARE well written, they get pushed aside in favour of men.

and god forbid you call this out, especially if you're a lesbian, you'll be accused of being homophobic and hating all mlm. i've seen it happen so many times on twitter. just because someone criticizes how mlm always gets precedence over wlw, doesn't mean they hate mlm. mlm rep is important but it sucks how its always given preference over wlw just because people prefer following men's stories than women's stories.

"Why do you ship them???? Why "X male character" and "X male character" can't be just friends????"

And one of characters in question is looking at the other as if they were angels or a beautiful mytical creature.

Queerbaiting sucks... but

I find it so affirming as a person who struggles with their romantic orientatation. I just live for that state of not quite friends/not quite lovers.

Like yes, they are partners, yes, they live and die for eachother, yes, every other relationship they have loses all meaning compared to them. But also no, they haven't kissed, and they don't want to kiss, and yet, somehow, every single word, every single glance, every single touch carries so much meaning and conveys so much love because this amount of platonic love is usually unheard of and they don't want the other to misunderstand. And I just- aaah, it gives me so much hope and reminds me that romantic love isn’t the only type of love worth experiencing and showing on screen/paper.

I do wish it was done intentionally and wasn’t just a product of homophobia and capitalism. Like I really, really hate the reason I get this representation. Like, it also leaves a somewhat sour taste in my mouth, because I can see that if the world was more accepting, it would probably be a romantic relationship.

(I sometimes see people calling queercoding queerbaiting, and just to make it clear, that isn't what i'm talking about)

'I'm tired of every gen z show being puritan and sanitised like Heartstopper!!1'

[feelingthedisaster]
