IM DONE. IM FUCKING DONE.

A year ago. OVER THREE HUNDRED AND SIXTY FIVE DAYS AGO. Back before I moved into a new house not once but TWICE, I discovered this beautiful gem of a show, Star Vs the Forces of Evil. You needn’t know the plot if you don’t, but the animation and character design is beautiful. It inspired me to draw like crazy, I made posters, created a new personal goal to become a convention booth artist (which over this past year I’ve made significant progress towards) and overall at its core I have this show to thank for giving me the artistic boost I needed to persue something I can somewhat call a dream job.

HOWEVER.

I wish I never joined this god forsaken fandom and here’s why.

Back before our humble planet earth completed yet another FULL CYCLE around OUR MASSIVE STAR OF LIFE THAT WE CALL A SUN, I decided, as the self centered 17 year old high school dropout at the time I was, I would google if there were any episodes that aired on my birthday. Innocent, right? Well APPARENTLY NOT. Because this would be the catalyst for the most meaningless internet beef that has turned into an appalled and disbelieving rage. I’m not offended at this person’s opinion, I’m offended at their four seasons long radio silence cut abruptly by their decision to enter my vicinity on this vast virtual plane for reasons unbeknownst to my comprehension.

I’m getting ahead of myself.

The deuteragonist’s name is Marco. He’s a teenage boy with a running bit about his unique feminine side. He wears makeup and prefers some typical ‘girl’ things, despite being a boy. You may see where a fandom would run with this. In one of the episodes, he is dressed as a princess named Turdina. Turdina is originally a disguise used to infiltrate an all girls boarding school with his protagonist friend, however in that original episode, he accidentally sparks a revolution of princesses and becomes a face in a feminist empowering movement about individuality and freedom. This is a plot point brought up later again in an episode that happened to, by fate’s both generous and cruel hand, air on my birthday.

Now the dress he wears is beautiful, and the hair is one of those cartoony ponytails that I’ve always secretly enjoyed in character design. I was tempted, even before that google search, to convey my appreciation for the Turdina outfit in the form of a stylus’s dance on canvas.

This beef, that has been simmering, rotting, in the hot southern summer sun of tumblr age all began with an innocent post that I, at the time, did not know would be the equivalent of setting eighty Victorian orphanages on fire and consuming the ashes with gluttonous villainy. My post read as follows.

“Hey SVTFOE fandom! Just found out my birthday is the same day ‘Princess Turdina’ aired. Does this mean I should draw her?”

One soul behind a screen didn’t much care for this. They commented, accusing me of things that I hadn’t even brought into the conversation including headcanons and beliefs that I, though supported, did not perpetuate in this post. I replied and moved on.

My art consisted of two drawings, careful in wording as to not harm this tumblr user of whom I had yet to process the full hatred of… canon depictions(?) in their heart.

They replied again. We argued. I eventually began to purposefully antagonize them. After all, I believe one fan is entitled to their own opinion, especially when it is one that someone could use as a way to cope or project complex thought onto. After all, in the land of fandom, anything goes. Except for Turdina, apparently. Turdina is worse than seven war crimes on a kind elderly civilian of pure actions and gentle heart.

I decided, if my art wouldn’t be welcome on tumblr, I could retreat to the trenches of Reddit and its cold (though terrifying at times) arms. I posted my art on the subreddit.

They found me.

This beef had turned into a quarter pounder with cheese. Two patties, one grass fed in the tumblr plains and one raised in cruelty of Reddit’s confines. The argument carried no progression, for I was ying and my enemy was yang, and like a penny whose head may never see its tail, We would never see each other’s reasoning. I was aware of this, my partner in this unspeakable freak of nature interaction, did not. I don’t know what happened next. The events that unfurled that lead to the silence blur into nothing but a distant memory from a prior era.

I moved on. I evolved. I learned to drive, I went back to school, I fell into deep studies of the workings of our chaotic yet poetic weather. I fell in love. I felt heartbreak. I got cats. And, as they tend to do, my Star phase came to a beautiful silent close. I laid that era to rest, and I was at peace.

Until tonight, in the early screeches of the morning, still in my work shirt covered in hours of labor and turmoil, I check tumblr. I see a comment. ‘Odd,’ I thought. ‘Why would someone reply to a post from oh so long ago?” until I read the contents. My heart flutters with recognition. My eyes, naturally, don’t believe it. A new profile picture, better grammar, the beef, thought to have been torn with unfriendly teeth of rivals revived itself, as having thawed. As if it had been frozen. FOR A FUCKING YEAR. I emphasize this, we fought over a YEAR ago. ASK ME WHAT THAT EPISODE WAS ABOUT. I DONT FUCKING KNOW IT WAS A YEAR AGO, I FORGOT.

STILL, THIS PERSON DECIDED TO REKINDLE OUR BEEF AND TO YOU, BECAUSE I KNOW FOR A FACT YOU HAVE MY REDDIT USER, I ASK YOU THIS:

WHY? Why must you linger in the dead of the flame after all that remains are shrouds of lonely black smoke? Are you satisfied feasting on your entertainment that is your words as if you are both a jester and its cruel king? Do you not long for the unity that is LITERALLY ANYTHING ELSE? In our year separated, did you not grow? Did you not stop fucking caring about a KIDS SHOW FROM 2015 EVEN FOR A MINUTE!?

As I typed this, we talked again, They didn’t answer my questions that I beg for. They deleted the comment, as if taking the patty away from me after reminding me of its taste. They disappear again, like a phantom in the wind. This is psychological warfare. I have never experienced such whiplash. Are they coming back? I have no way of knowing. And that’s whats terrifying.

Kpop Demon Hunters but I throw in miraculous ladybug lore and make a silly AU

Yes, Jinu would be the black cat holder. Yes demons would still exist. Yes the demons would have the butterfly miraculous. Yes he would be fighting alongside her intending to eventually betray her.
