"This thing's canon/intended to be canon"
"How?"
"Look at my piece of evidence"
"But there's little to no buildup/foreshadowing for this thing in the text that backs your statement up."
"Right, because it's written poorly."
"...You understand how it sounds when your argument is basically 'well the writing is bad so you can't prove it ISN'T canon', right?"
#fandom wank#lowkey vent post#sorry#I don't trust people who act like experts on the story of a media when all they do is cherrpick tidbits they like out of it and justify all#their readings/criticism by stating the writing is bad#''The characters were intended to become canon lovers''#''Uhhh but there isn't even implication of this in the text? At best it could be implied one or both has feelings but not that they're gonna#get together''#''Exactly it's cause the writer is bad and doesn't know how to write romance. So my reading is correct''#You see what I'm throwing down?#Perhaps a better way to say it is I don't trust people for whom 'bad writing' is a stand in for 'I don't like their writing choices or#handling of the story but my headcanons/ecpectations while reading can't have been wrong!''#the kind of people who think ''bad writing'' gives them an excuse to shut off their brain and assume nothing means anything#Like no buddy if you intend to do analysis you very much have to meet the story that's written badly in the middle too#Even bad writers have authorial intent and things they tried to do#i just be ramblin
