HES NOT EVEN MOVING

[constelationprize]

for all that ppl talk shit about thea i do appreciate her acknowledging kevin still had much to learn and go through and saying he needed more experience but that she was willing to wait for him if he wanted her to. yeahg

[constelationprize]

I think a lot about the part of the EC with Lydia Shetfield and I’ll longpost about it at some point re kevin’s lingering sexual trauma and also about lydia because i have hella lore for her but for now. this is all i can think of at that part

I’m in lesbian with you

“whatever the fuck these two characters had going on” is a vastly underrated character dynamic

The latest round of kevjean discourse that turned up on my dash is objectively funny to me, because like. You guys can't make a thousand angst posts about this being the one universe where Jean doesn't kill himself and then act as if Jean's promise to Kevin is a magically binding contract. Yeah, Jean's relantionship to autonomy is incredibly fucked, and that for sure impacts how he views the promise, but also. Jean is in fact very much still a man in possession of free will. He almost attempts ON PAGE after Riko dies anyway. And I'm sorry but I think it's hilarious that people act as if the unforgivable thing about Kevin leaving is that he had (years before, unknowing this scenario would ever come up) made Jean promise he wouldn't kill himself no matter what, as if Jean killing himself would be the good ending here. Like yeah it extended his suffering for a year but then it meant he would get to be happy and free forever????? If anything the promise is the only objectively good thing about Kevin and Jean's relantionship, no matter the consequences it had along the way.

Also, the original context of the promise is that Jean attempted suicide and failed and Riko threatened him with a horrible death in punishment. THAT'S what Kevin was trying to stop by getting Jean to keep himself alive, because considering logistics, the odds of things going Jean's way were small considering how little control he had over his environment. Kevin didn't do it to keep Jean suffering forever, he did because it was literally the only suffering Riko threatened that Kevin could stop.

Also also, Jean literally word for word admitted that the reason he wanted Kevin to stay was so that both of them could die. MAYBE selflessness is not a variable on either side of this equation.

Basically Riko and Neil's conversation during the first banquet scene in The Raven King:

(I was laughing while making this please tell me it makes sense to yall)

[constelationprize]

me: i love this ship because they understand each other on a level no one else does

also me: i love this ship because they misunderstand each other constantly and it’s causing irreparable damage to them and everyone around them

[constelationprize]

yes, their close platonic relationship in canon is important to me specifically because it's both close and platonic

yes, I also ship them romantically, or as part of a romantic poly ship

I refuse to lock myself into a single interpretation of a fictional relationship when there's multiple interesting ways to view it. I can do both

WHY YOU SHOULD WRITE HORRIBLY:

1. You’ll never write anything if you don’t

[constelationprize]

kandreil AU where kevin and andrew use crime tv shows to bond and regularly freak out old ladies at the grocery store discussing the crimes in grisly details, while neil smells every single package of wet cat food and tries to decide which one their cats would enjoy more

Me to my draft: You are a oneshot.

The draft: Wrong. I am the pilot chapter of a multichapter fic that you do not have the bandwidth to take on, but will haunt your every waking thought anyway.

i love you female characters who make selfish choices they know will be bad for everyone. i love you female characters who think they're making the right choice but make things worse. i love you female characters who are making the right choice but noone else understands it.

Send me a word, if it’s in my wip document I’ll answer your ask with the sentence that it appears in

[constelationprize]

there are some headcanons where it's like. 'i would enjoy this as a light seasoning in fic but certain chunks of the fandom have become more committed to this than the actual canon and made it load-bearing in scenarios where it simply doesn't make sense'.
