Out of curiosity, why did you not include more... Actually Canonical poly relationships?

Sure a lot of them are in underground stuff so garnering interest is hard, but it feels kinda sad to have a poll where most of the things on the list are just fandom wishful thinking instead of actual works with polyamory in them. TV tropes has a whole page of examples if you couldnt find much.

Like theres quite a bit of modestly popular canon poly stuff, The Kane Chronicles, Xenoblade 2, Hades, Fate/Stay-Night, Sense8, Demon Slayer, ...technically Sekirei if fanservice slop is fine, X-Men 2019 comic run, technically Homestuck with the quadrants, and Steven Universe all have some level of not too underground-ness to ride on.

You have a couple on the brackets already sure, but I just wish people would rec actually canon rep instead of wishful thinking more is all.

because i took nominations and most people nominated headcanons. im not in most of the fandoms that were nominated, these arent my ships, in fact i didnt nominate anything myself. So i didnt go on tv tropes to pick because i didnt nominate anything.

That said, homestuck, the kane chronicles and hades were already in the poll, as is iron widow which is canon, the throuple from penumbra podcast: second citadel, the girls from amphibia, and leverage as well. i did mention in another ask that i intended to include one of the sense8 polyships (the confirmed canon one), but i forgot. steven universe was also included, also not one of the canon polycules. i considered including fluorite which was one of the 3 su nominations (and the only canon one i got afaik) but i wanted to pick smth that i thought would be more recognizable so i chose amelapidot which later i discussed w some participants that informed me peridot is aroace, and some ppl agreed they worked well as queerplatonic so i decided to keep them in becauee of that. i did preliminary polls for spop and catra/adora/glimmer/bow won, even though i personally wanted to include rogelio/kyle/lonnie (canon) but i hesitated because they're less popular characters and i didnt know which ppl would prefer (thus the preliminary poll).

also, i personally like headcanons very much because idk a lot of canon rep so im always finding it in characters i relate to, which i imagine might be the same for many ppl here.

all that said, if you decide to make ur own poll w only canon polyam relationships, please let me know!! id love to vote on it and if be happy to promote it here!!!

why are some antis bending over backwards to make every ship they don't like problematic? "they're like brothers, this is practically incest!" "you can't ship that, he's married with kids in canon!" "he's a kid in some of the comics so this is actual pedophilia!"

you know you're allowed to just not like stuff, right? you don't need some higher moral reason for it.

there’s a horrible sickness in me that makes me want to stop and replay da:i whenever i start a different game. how am i supposed to resist the story of my own unwilling apotheosis? especially as lavellan, who doesn’t believe in the maker and who has every right to hate and mistrust the chantry but chooses to use what power they have to try save people, to fix what’s broken, no matter how afraid they are or how careful they have to be. walking side by side with the great trickster god/adversary of your people without knowing, befriending him, changing his mind about this world but ultimately not his choice. he understands what’s happening to you because it happened to him once and he gives you his castle, built over the place where he sundered the world, and paints your story there in frescos that will last long after you’re gone and after the story has been retold and reshaped so many times that the truth of who you are and what you did is lost—just as he did his own story, which was lost and perverted by war and propaganda, and he shows all of this to you knowing you’ll understand because you’ve lived through something similar, grown into something larger than yourself and your true name, and it doesn’t change anything but. he wanted you to see him just for a moment, even if he can’t tell you everything (or almost anything) and you can’t save him—because he owes it to you as a someone who is a friend, almost an equal, and because there’s no one else left who knows: a direct result of what he did to your people and which he now seeks to undo at the cost of this world.

Went to the bookstore today and asked about their mythology section and this frickin guy had the gall to be like "Yeah it's over here, but these are really dense and difficult so let me show you the children's mythology section." I was so baffled I didn't say anything. Normally I would've been very offended, but I couldn't help but laugh because I was like "I've been reading those massive textbook-esque mythology books since I was a literal child as research for my novel, sir. But sure, show me the kid's section, I like reading kids' books too."

[arcaneyouth]

you should try to be friends with people whose art you think is "bad". nothing makes you appreciate "bad" art more than knowing the person behind it and knowing no matter what you think of it, they put so much love and effort into it. you find a genuine appreciation for things in "bad" art you may not have before. makes you a lil bit more free as a person to realize bad art isnt real

everyone has these thoughtful reasons and careful media analysis to make their point about why sylki will/won't "be endgame" and thus it's okay (or not) if they argue a bit first and i am slightly ashamed to admit that my entire thought process thus far has just been "well there's six episodes to fill, of course they'll drag the romance plot out as long as possible." :'(
