thinking about how peoples blorbos tend to be men on here (makes sense with the trends in fandom of men being prioritised etc etc) SO please reblog and tag your female blorbo(s). this is NOT the post to be like “[male character] becuz he’s a woman to me” i Will come to your house and bite you. anyway i’ll go first mine are susie and julie from dbd and carly jones from house of wax 🖤

HERE. I FOUND IT.

TOTALLY heterosexual reaction. shirou “i am definitely straight i have never been interested in men and have never been flustered at the idea of being seduced by a man” emiya.

im always so baffled whenever it happens but people really will bend over backwards to try and claim fate isn't "progressive" enough to have canon queer characters, especially people who don't even actually read fate, just because it started with a porn game and its current flagship is a titty gacha. fgo has more explicitly transgender characters than you can count on both hands. there's FOUR separate occasions of them releasing a cooler version of a previously cisgender character that is now trans. off the top of my head we got three separate characters who are the embodiment of human self actualisation and therefore transgender. astolfo is popular among femboy fetishists though so how progressive can fate really be right

nero's one wish was to have someone at her side when she dies this time, a wish she was so hesitant to tell hakuno that she worded it as "it's rather trivial, but dying alone was a little harsh" without outright asking, but hakuno knows her nero and that small wish was burned so deeply into her soul that a thousand years after her death she refused to let the shadow of her shadow forget it, you cannot let saber die alone, i promised her she wouldn't have to, and deadface hakuno fulfills that promise, when nero burns herself up to buy him precious few moments to save the world he passes those moments to rin instead because he has something more important to do, and nero says, thank you, I'm glad you remembered, but there is something more important you still have to do, and she dies alone again but not lonely, not this time,

in her final moments a miracle occurred and nero died knowing a human love. that miracle is the core of the heroic spirit nero claudius, the dream that "there will eventually be someone who will reach out to me". she says if it hadn't happened she would still be in that wilderness, slowly dying while waiting for something impossible. that is the death that belongs to the person nero claudius, freed from her mother's suffocating love even if it happened too late to change anything about her life.

draco did not receive that miracle. the shade of nero who continued to slowly bleed out in that wilderness without anyone to care for her in her final moments, whose evil love is in devouring all the world so that she will be there in everyone else's final moments instead. she calls herself draco, and beast VI/S, and sodom's beast, but not nero claudius. she did not get to die as a person, as the her who is herself, instead of the convenient tyrant and star of calamity that others saw in her. the beast drinking filth from the holy grail is the child still drinking from her mother's poisoned cup.

can you teach me the rules of the holy grail war

the rules of the classic grail war are as follows:

seven masters (broken in fsn) summon seven servants (broken in fsn), each corresponding with one of the seven classes (broken in fsn)

the masters fight until only one is left (broken in fsn) and then that master claims the grail (this never happens normally) to make a wish with their servant (this is a lie)

of course, the grail works by burning a hole to the root (this is a flawed premise) and can be used to make miracles happen (not actually) and grant a single wish (especially not after the Avenger incident)

Arrrgh I already complained about it but man. Fucking hate how weird people are when it comes to sexuality in art. "Ohhh this only exists because the writer was horny it can't possibly have anything deep to say" fucking imagine if we applied it to other emotions. Sorry Antigones can't possibly be about anything meaningful the writer was clearly just sad. Hamlet isn't a good or interesting play actually it was just Shakespeare being angry.

I love SS but only as a contrast to the better, sexier CF

psh, this party sucks *teleports to the cactus dimension* oh i don't like it here

[emperorsegg]

like as someone who followed this plotline for literal years. i think her final ascension (which embodies more luciferian design elements) in mobile is much closer to what i wanted from a beast nero than her arcade beast form lol

“ why isn’t nero draco’s final ascension her normal beast form” did you not read the event or
