Remembering you standing quiet in the rain
As I ran to your heart to be near
And we kissed as the sky fell in, holding you close
How I always held close in your fear - The Cure

Silly thought... weirdness incoming...
Can you imagine if vlogging was somehow a thing in the late 80s? What if Kakyoin vlogged all the time during Stardust Crusaders? Kakyoin's holding a giant ass camcorder filming as The Sun Stand rains fireballs down on them while they're hiding in a pitiful little hovel:
Kakyoin: "Hey guys! Welcome to another episode of Shit I Didn't Expect to See Today..."
Everybody else: *groans*
Joseph: "KAKYOIN, IS THIS REALLY THE TIME FOR THAT?!"
Kakyoin: *focuses the camera on the annoyed, sweaty old man who's trying not to panic while it sounds like the world is ending just outside*
"Yes."
You can't tell me he wouldn't be THAT kind of vlogger.

I know we don't talk and there's stuff we may not agree with. But I am truly sorry you've dealt with a lot of drama over fictional crap. And I'm sorry if my posts in the past ever contributed to that. Hope you have a better day.
Hey... That's all fine, don't worry! After all, it takes a lot of time and Insight to realise that Gehrman is a very gentle and respectful man and Godrick is an absolute gigachad kdkdkshdffhhgfds /lh /lh
But yeah, on a serious note. It was quite frustrating to find out the real motivation under all that... mess was something so pathetic, but at the same time this is what happens when people make engagement with media and fandoms a moral, political act. Not necessarily a problem, after all, I was the one who concluded that the way a fan judges fictional characters and other fans will very well reveal how cruel they are to real people who do something bad, or how much they will forgive based on personal sympathies. And my mad ravings about caring about female characters! I think the problem comes when a fan is so insecure that they have nothing else besides this defence of ideals through fandomry. If your only way to assert yourself is to be a good guy punishing the bad guys, and that mad raving loredigger discovers there is NO bad guy, what is left of you?
This is why it is crucial to have passion for nurturing rather than for undermining! I think if you speak like this, you've found this truth too? This is true that I don't know you very much (mutual-in-law thing), but to be honest.. you didn't poison my fandom experience at all? I tend to never be aware about discourse until someone basically calls me for help fhdhgsdgdfs Can't scout the fandom tag regularly!
But not only it actually was a quite long ago I saw a "negative" post from you, but also I've seen through the posts that my friends liked or reblogged from you that you've actually became very eager person to defend people's passion and interests! I think the post that particularly got stuck with me was when you resented seeing someone's light die after some Redditor asshole "well aktualy"'d a thing they were excited about creating (not exact wording but maybe you remember too)? Like... you are fine, man. At that point I realised that you were a good fan and in the end valued people's creativity and passion over personal preferences. That you never wanted to be THAT guy, even if your interpretation could not be further from someone else's. Coming to terms with what actually matters in fandomry is very mature and I am happy to see this attitude!
I am still glad that you messaged me about this though; I did not expect this, but thank you! I think I will continue getting involved in fictional discourse because my autistic senses cannot ignore factually incorrect takes with a clear insidious motive, and.. eh, sooner or later, I'll piss off the wrong guy again. Don't feel bad for me when it inevitably happens :p I've accepted the shortcomings when I decided to be the debate guy. Simply laughing at some gremlin starting a discourse with the girls in DMs and not stressing over it is only funny until I realise that newer fans could get misinformed right off the bat.

i've seen the new little mermaid live-action movie and i need to share my thoughts because i simply can't stop thinking about it!! i truly had my concerns about this movie - not because of the casting, but because ariel is one of my favorite disney princesses and i didn't want them to butcher the beautiful story (as they did with mulan, my favorite disney princess + movie, yeah we don't talk about this, let's just pretend it never happened). however, i was more than impressed after leaving the cinema and i catch myself thinking about it ever since. halle bailey did a phenomenal job in portraying the little mermaid, she made her her own version and i absolutely loved it. her acting was spot on and her singing?! don't even get me started, she's just an icon. it just felt so surreal to see my childhood heroine finally come to life on the big screen. the child in me was soooo incredibly happy to see a 'real' mermaid <3
and, obviously, i'm a huge simp for prince eric aka jonah hauer-king now. admittedly, i didn't see him as eric when i first saw the trailers because the original prince eric is just THAT male disney character yk. but let me tell you: he has me in a chokehold. he's constantly on my fyp and i'm so glad he is because i just love that man so freaking much. he deserves the whole world. there is just something different about your childhood crush coming to life!!
and bro, their chemistry?! i freaking bLUSHED, all giggly and kicking my feet in the cinema with only kids surrounding me 😭 that man made me feel things and i definitely need them to have another movie as a couple because they SERVED! (the little mermaid 2??) never seen such a good chemistry between two characters, i'm so in love with both of them 🩷 also their interviews?? oh god they make me so happy
i'm still not happy with some of the changes they made (the sisters!? confusing af). they could have done better with her dresses (where is the beautiful pink dress duh) and i'm not at all happy that they didn't include one of my favourite scenes from the original... but other than that, i think this will easily become one of my new comfort movies because i literally can't stop thinking about it, smiling and giggling. i even ordered their funkos okay i'm such a freaking simp i sometimes can't stand myself lmao i'm even thinking about adding eric to the list of characters i write for that's how bad it is
anyway, go watch the movie if you haven't already!!! personally, i think it is VERY MUCH worth it. thank you for coming to my ted talk and i definitely won't shut up about this movie any time soon 🥺🥰 (watch me reblog every tiny post i see about them hihi)
