Am I the only one thinking 'Bevin/Benrook but what if Ben is the top', like I can't be the only one?

Have I not said before that people shouldn't send me not safe for work asks on my blog that kids follow. Multiple times? I have NSFW platforms, I've mentioned them before, and I feel like the real indicator that you shouldn't be sending me sexual asks on my blog is that everything is sfw. I implore people to use common sense and not violate my boundaries just because they want to send some stupid horny ask, I'm so sick of having to put up constant signs that people will ignore anyway

trans ben truthers strangely forget w their propaganda how passionate ben was abt helping rook ben lose his tail after he said that it would finally give him a name and a true identity and they waved bens drive away as 'he just really wanted to lose a tooth when he was little'

[electraslight]

Heyy! I'm a Brazilian follower n I read the interaction abt "it's okay to Ben be a f", and I would just like to say that it really isn't meant like that in Portuguese loll! "Aviadaram" it's more of a joke, like turning smth or someone to a more non-cohforming type of way, kinda? It's like less about actually being gay and more about being different, and it's mostly used in a good way, like you changed stereotypical straight Ben we usually see to a more "yassified" persona!!

I just wanted to leave this here in case you got offended or hurt about the interaction, cause those words always end up turning into the f word when translated (which is kinda rare to be used in Portuguese when it's on a harming way, specially online). Love your art! ❤

ohhh thank you this is super helpful!! i keep reading ppl using 'avidaram' about me or my art and i was confused since its usually in a positive context. this makes a lot more sense!! i was a little uneasy abt slurs being thrown around like that but it's kind of like calling something 'faggy' or 'fruity' postitively, right? god i need a portuguese translator i can just call up and ask about things i keep getting confused. thanks so much for the clarification

ben 10 2006 kevin arc: addicts arent good or bad. they can be kind and good and pure and everything a person 'should' be and circumstances can still align and draw them to addiction. kevin is a sweet kid who wants to make friends and is continually shown to be kind when sober, but even in his very first moments it's seen that his trip can drive him to hurt others and himself. he doesnt have any other choice though, because he couldn't survive without his addiction and the power that it gives him. this is understood, and yet ben's arc is about understanding that no matter how much you may care about an addict or a mentally ill loved one, no matter how many chances you try to give them, there comes a point where it is lethal for you to keep trying to help someone who cannot be helped. Ben gives kevin mercy, tools to help himself, and while their might be animosity about it, he really only wants kevin to be ok but even if you believe in someone with all of your soul, you cannot stay with them if they can't value you in the way you value them. Addiction is not a fault, but it is also not an illness that breeds nice people, and continuing to try and help someone who will hurt you for trying is less helping and more self-flaggelation.

ben 10 ultimate alien kevin arc: hey look at this horrible irredeemable criminal junkie lol. everyone can treat him like shit and ignore his feelings because he was on drugs once, and hes even been to jail!! isnt that horrible? doesnt he deserve to be the narrative punching bag? hes an ADDICT he can take it!! look at him getting off the wagon lol, isnt he awful for that? let's have his girlfriend and best friend call him ugly and have him get molested and enslaved!!! also when dealing with a partner going through a violent relapse its totally cool and romantic to 'believe' in him even when he is actively seeking you out to kill you. you should not distance yourself and get yourself to safety because thats LOVE and you can FIX him and ONLY YOU CAN DO THAT. we are a progressive show that has progressive politics

(these are my own interpretations btw i cant argue for intent only what i took away from it. but uaf's botched 'progressiveism' grates on me heavily when even ogs's villians are treated with more sympathy about factors out of their control than one og the teen main characters. ill make a seperate post about botched themes and whitewashing of actual issues later but focusing on this rn bc this is what made kevin resonate with me in the first place and i hate how they botched it)
