#i think they're silly freak bisexuals

Btw I've been so shaken by the last episode that I don't think I've even remembered to say how grateful and emotional I am for the bi representation. Because I am. I am. I so am.

Umm. So. To tell a little real life story to explain why this bi representation matters to me...

I'm bi. Hi.

Took me ages to really wrap my head around it. Ages. Years. Even now, well into my adult age (yeah I know I sound like I'm 14 but no I'm not)...

I'm still not out to my family. And it's not that they're the most queer-phobic people in the world. They're actually pretty great.

The thing is... Bi erasure is real. It really is. Even today, bisexuality is not taken seriously.

The amount of times I've witnessed people dismissing bisexuals and bisexuality... Lost count.

Often the idea never even enters someone brain. They don't consider it to be possible. They miss every possible clue because to them, we are practically mythological creatures. Sometimes it feels like people expect to meet a bisexual about as much as they expect to meet an unicorn. Why look for one, they're not real, you know!

"Oh, they're not really bisexual, they're just trying to be trendy, to get attention! Everyone is "bi" nowadays!"

So many times I've heard people dismiss bi people who are out.

Some act like every out-of-the-closet bi/pan person is actually just pretending, that secretly they are 100% into the same sex and just say they're bi because they think that's more accepted.

Some will express that to your face. "Hey, you know that it's okay to come out, right? Just making sure! I'm fine with gays!"

And the amount of times I've witnessed people thinking that bisexuality is like a light switch...

If you're a woman and start dating a woman - you're NOW a lesbian! If you end the relationship and start dating a man - Did you hear? She's straight now! Or alternatively... She's dating a man now? Oh what a headcase, she went back into the closet! How sad!

How and when are we bi, then? Only in polyamorous relationships?

So... Let's just say that this repeated dismissive environment, this persistent refusal to take bisexuals seriously messed with my head.

For years, it kept me in the closet even to my super lovely and queer friends.

I just kept doubting my own feelings and reactions. Surely, I could not be bi, that's not a REAL sexuality! No, I must be just confused. This is what I told MYSELF. Even though I had actual out and proud bi people in my life, whose identity I never doubted.

And also... The representation.

Do you people even realise how widespread the utter ignorance still is?

Imagine trying to come out as bi... after you realise that the person you consider coming out to... May not even REGOGNIZE the word "bi"!!! Yes, SERIOUSLY!!

You know... Because this was a real life event for me. Fun times!

I was playing scrabble with elderly relatives. Realised I had the letters B and I, realised I could score very nicely if I played them.

I felt daring, and had a hunger for winning, so I played them.

Guess what the reaction was?

Confusion.

..."What's "BI"?"

Yes, really.

My elderly uncle did not even KNOW the word. I was so taken back and shaky when I realised this that I could not even manage to come up with a reply. Thankfully SOMEONE knew because man was the mood awkward.

And guess what. It made zero sense that they did not know.

This person who went "What's BI?" was not a person who lived out of touch with the modern world. Nope.

I'm from a nordic country!

My country is supposedly one of the "progressed" ones!

The laws are pretty inclusive,

the media has freedom of speech,

and I know for a FACT that my godparents watch the news EVERY DAY, and even not just watch the news...

They read newspapers. They watch tv. Including silly fictional series with silly queer characters!!

But he still freaking didn't know what "bi" means!!

So that's why representation MATTERS. These dumb fictional queer characters and stories make the real queer people understandable. Visible. Known.

And hopefully some day we won't have to worry if the person we're trying to open up to can accept or comprehend what we're talking about.

So yeah. I'm so grateful for the representation. THANK YOU FOR DOING THIS, darlings ❤️❤️❤️ I love you.

[royjamierot]

love love LOVE your headcanons for Roy and Jamie!!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️💗💗💗💗✨✨✨please share moreeee 🤍

THANK YOUUUU this was so fun to think about i have a lot so they're going under the cut

- i think roy is more of a tv and movie guy than jamie. i think jamie is just one of those people who can't sit still during movies so they usually end up making out whenever they turn one on.

- jamie can do movies in theaters though, for some reason he can pay attention to those just fine. he and roy go like every week.

- roy's favorite movie is sound of music jamie's is star wars a new hope. i know this. please believe me.

- jamie likes sour candy and roy likes sweet candy

- if they got married jamie would want to take roy's last name. like that guy has been obsessed with roy for like a decade, and you're telling him he gets the chance to be jamie kent instead of jamie tartt?? instead of james tartt?? the name only associated with his father now? yeah. he'd want to be jamie kent. and also roy would love it because he's a possessive bitch.

- jamie does not know what pronouns are until keeley tells him to put his pronouns on his Instagram. then he has a gender crisis. (he puts his pronouns on he/him and figures out the gender stuff with the people he actually knows irl)

- if royjamie were t4t they would be even more into body worship. they trace over each other's scars and admire the self made people they are.

- roy only has a minor freak out about realizing he's bisexual (he's nearly 40 only just now realizing he's bi? he'd freak out) but it'd be worse when jamie is the reason he realizes

- roy and jamie are each other's bisexual awakening

- when jamie and roy start dating jamie has to fight himself from asking if the things in the tabloids are true. because jamie read a lot of tabloids and stories about roy when he was a horny teenager. (jamie does ask about the hip movement thing on their first date and roy just has to take him home to show him. obviously)

- jamie and roy's music taste clashes a lot but they still make playlists for each other and listen to them regularly

- jamie and roy both love concerts too so they go to them a lot. they definitely go to beyonce and stevie nicks together.

- jamie has his ears pierced and lets phoebe pick out silly earrings for him. he's worn all of these.

- jamie loves iced coffee and roy loves cappuccinos

- (i dont actually know what Halloween is like in england and i dont care bc i have headcanons) i just know that jamie gets really into halloween decorations. every october their house smells like pumpkin spice candles and there's fake cobwebs everywhere. roy is kind of surprised by it until they go back to manchester once during october and he sees georgie's house is the same way

- roy makes themed pancakes all year round. valentines? strawberry heart pancakes. halloween? pumpkin cinnamon. phoebe loves it and then jamie loves it.

- jamie is a passenger princess.

- jamie loves candles there's like a million around the house. he nearly sets the house on fire at least once a month.

- jamie thinks once they start dating that the training will get easier. it doesn't. it gets worse. (jamie tries to flirt his way out of it and that doesn't work out so he just ends up tired and turned on)

- roy starts complimenting him way more when they start dating and jamie goes very pink when that happens and brushes it off so that he doesn't do something inadvisable in public

- jamie loves roy's curly hair and begs him to grow it out and roy says it's too much maintenance and jamie says he will do everything for roy if he grows it out. this leads to roy growing it out and jamie washing and styling his hair for a month (roy likes the attention it brings him so eventually he just keeps it)

- they go to each other's hair appointments together

- jamie's favorite disney princess is rapunzel

- jamie and roy are both cat people i think. i think roy has had a secret cat for years that no one knows about until jamie comes over one time. it's a black cat that way the cat's hair doesn't stand out on roy's clothing. jamie has a not secret tabby cat.

- jamie has a teddy bear his mom gave him when he was little that goes with him everywhere. to every away game and everything.

- roy cooks, jamie does dishes, they do their own laundry.

- they watch garbage reality tv together (or really they goof off with reality tv in the background.)

okay thanks that's all my headcanons for now!! thank you for the ask.

Tell your 5 top ships in DL .

5 was a tie, I couldn't choose between them, so there's two #5s :')

5: azushin - my rarepair! when other people talk about their rarepair and it has like 50+ fics on ao3 I get jealous because up till recently azushin had exactly 0 xD I love their interactions and I think they're a really good fit for each other. shin's powerful and violent so azusa likes him, but shin, the proud founder himself, gets all freaked out when this measly little halfblooded vampire is around for some reason...! ^^

5 also: ayayuma - I've already talked about it a bit but yeah, it's like a nice little comfort ship to me. I have a lot of sketches of them just hanging out. very very important to my bisexual ayato headcanon

4: reijiruki - reiji's quest for love and approval continues but this time he's pursuing someone he sees as an equal, perhaps even…gasp…a love interest?! I get nothing but immense joy and pleasure watching reiji trip over himself to impress ruki. like he'll invite himself to the mukami house and act like the picture of respectability and authority and he'll be like "I know we just met not that long ago but may I join you for dinner and sleep over at your house and also I got you this gift thats WAY too important and meaningful" and he doesnt even realize that he's being SILLY!!!!! and ruki's reactions make it even funnier bc he's like "??? what the fuck, sure I guess" so it's a great ship lol

3: ayayui - my fav yui ship!!! I love them together!!! I've wept real tears at how much ayato is able to accomplish when he has yui at his side. when you look at a character like ayato and everything he's been through, u can start thinking like "oh his mother's expectations were too high and she traumatized him so much that he can't even do normal things like school assignments anymore" but when ayato enters a relationship with yui and realizes that he wants to do these things FOR HER, he'll end up conquering even the most difficult things for him. it really compels me, because these things (like college or work) dont magically become EASIER for ayato, he just really wants to do them because he loves yui so much, and in the end he's able to do them. they're both so brave and I'm so proud of them. sobs

2: subakou - enemies -> rivals -> best friends -> lovers!!!! they've got a little something for everybody!! subakou have some really nice moments in the games that suggest that they really love each other (play lost eden play lost eden play lost eden) and on twitter kou can flirt with subaru pretty shamelessly, it's awesome lol. like bringing a wheelbarrow of chocolates to him on valentines day. how else am I even supposed to interpret that

1: shuuma - if u took a sample of my blood and put it under a microscope u would see pictures of shu and yuma exchanging a soft and tender fistbump

[giggly-squiggily]

Hi Hello it's midnight for me and I just finished watching Steven Universe and the movie (I haven't watched Future yet- gonna do that this weekend) so now I have thoughts

Spoilers for Steven Universe below the cut!

First of all: I'm kicking myself repeatedly for waiting so long to watch it cause HOLY- 😭🥰 IT WAS SO GOOD!!! I wasn't sure I was gonna be into shows like this (Wasn't massively into Adventure Time- don't get me wrong, it was cute as hell and funny but just kinda..eh?) But I finally gave it a shot and WOW!

My favorite gem is still Garnet; I just- I adore her. She's wise, funny, the whole Sapphire and Ruby ship is so cute ("They were my favorite couple!"- Bismuth my blacksmith queen) and just-GAH! I love how excited she got over fusions and just how lovely she is all around!

My second favorite is Peridot. I loved her- she is the cutest little green dorito EVA! The way she speaks, her mannerisms, her dynamic with Lapis (Who admittedly I still have mixed feelings on but generally I enjoy her alot)- it was all so freaking kfakjerakjkjrakjerkjekjr I can't get over how cute she is HELP!

Really- I found myself loving all the characters! Pearl is cute as heck, Amethyst is an icon (I loved that scene where she refused to put all her problems onto Steven and recognized he had so much on his plate already- it was truly such a growth moment and I'm beyond proud of her. Plus- Smokey Quartz is an icon), and STEVEN! He's a doll! I adore him so much!

As for Beach City- I don't think I have a non-favorite. Everyone is so charming and silly; and even when they were at their worst they managed to bring it back around. Lars becoming a space pirate and Sadie becoming a rockstar- the grandmother becoming mayor and Ronaldo being..well, Ronaldo; it was all so good! I really do love Greg aswell; that Comet song will be forever stuck in my head. Oh! And Connie! I adore Connie!

As for the movie....eh? Don't get me wrong, it was great- and I really like Spinel; but all the endless songs started to get a little much after a while 😅 There was some great ones like Garnet's return song True Love and Steven's Change song- and of course Other Friends and Drift Away are absolutely incredible. It was a good mix of great songs and....kinda meh songs but still incredibly pleasant to listen to. I had a great time. (I also really liked Happily Ever After but I think I prefer Natewantstobattle's version; the rock cover really gives it that extra oomph!)

The DIAMONDS! I kinda don't know how to feel about Rose Quartz/Pink Diamond. I get why she did what she did; it was clear as glass the home life she was living wasn't good to her- but the way she did it certainly wasn't the cleanest. I like how complex her situation is and how Steven navigated it. I also like how the diamonds were presented- not good gems but complex enough that they're enjoyable. (Not to be bisexual on tumblr but Yellow Diamond....👀)

Overall this was a great time all around! I don't know what I'm gonna watch next (post future), my sister and I are thinking either Owl House or Amphibia, but y'all are welcome to leave suggestions! This was a much needed comfort experience during an admittedly crappy time.

(Also I'm almost done with Season 2 of Vinland Saga and y'all it's absolutely incredible but so freaking SAD- ooooo, I got feelings but I'll share them all when I finish the last four episodes)

This is your gentle reminder to sit down and indulge yourself in something comforting! Especially if things are being tough right now- you deserve to treat yourself :)

[editrevue]

Do that ask thing for Akira or Rui .

and with this, I finally got all of those ask games out of our inbox!! [ask] i know this has been sitting here for over a month maybe two now how embarrassing but yes yes yes omg thank you for sending this when you did i've been so excited to get to it, i love you sooo much I hope you enjoy my totally not biased ramblings and opinions <3 I did both btw, Rui is under the cut!

Sexuality Headcanon: Akira is either bisexual or just unlabeled sapphic to me, with an obvious femme-aligned preference because everyone in revue starlight does but I think lesbian for Akira is just too easy. she simply does not care since her standards are pretty solid and she's not super focused on romantic endeavors outside of roles. she can be a little aromantic spectrum as a treat, too!

Gender Headcanon: gosh i hate this question because it is like one of the things about akira i can never settle on in my mind. is she cisgender. is she gnc. is she transgender. is she masculine. is she feminine. is she both. neither. all. she's akira yukishiro. frau platin, king of the siegfeld institute of music. that's it

A ship I have with said character: I think the biggest one is definitely Akira and Michiru for me, but I have gained much appreciation for Akira and Hisame over the months as well................ i see the vision.

A BROTP I have with said character: Akira and any/all of the Edels, definitely! But that's a given, naturally. especially Shiori or Mei Fan, if we're not counting Michiru for shipping purposes. UM OH. Akira and Fumi!!!!! they're divorced (nudge nudge. your favorite) and they're both so goofy and gosh I love their dynamic so much. when they reconciled . oh my goddd. Akira and Seiran as a whole too, all three of them, but Koharu the most. again . if we're not counting Hisame for shipping purposes, but also in general I think the two of them [Koharu] can bond over so much, like Akira and Maya can, or how Maya and Koharu can. speaking of Maya, Akira and Maya!!! the ones from seisho I see the most bonding with Akira actually would be Maya, Karen and Junna. Junna because of the funny new york stuff in stage plays specifically but even then. ALSO ARURU. BECAUSE I THINK IT'S SWEET AND SILLY.

A NOTP I have with said character: UHHH as always anything not appropriate. juniors, etc. I don't really vibe with Akira and Yachiyo? as anything romantic. I don't think I really hate anything, most things I'm just indifferent towards. if anything, I mean I never understood Akira and Aruru romantically too much either, but I also think in a lot of ways it can be super cute? so idk! Akira and Shizuha maybe. shrug! I'll get back to you on that some other day

A random headcanon: Sun suggested one and I like it so I'll say it first, because Akira ice skates she'd probably be decent if not really good at roller skating, or alternatively she's really flat-out really bad at it for some reason. another one, because she loves horror media, she's really straight-faced watching horror movies and playing roles for plays that are meant to be scary or intimidating, and it makes people really nervous or freaks them out. she's really good at scaring, despite her secretly goofier nature. I'll throw in one more while I'm here, she's really good at flirting and making romantic gestures, but she rarely displays this behavior and it's a side of Akira virtually no one gets to see outside of roles, even future romantic partners.

General Opinion over said character: literally only good things!!! i said this in the rui part of this ask but i have so many comforts and favorites from the source i can't just choose my #1 favorite but akira is definitely up there in the characters of all time category. she has so many layers and i want to study each individual part under a microscope. she's so interesting. she's so silly and awkward. she's so serious and intimidating. she's so secretive. she's so heart on her sleeve. i love her puppy dog expressions in her live2d sprites i love every role she plays i love her singing voice. akira is just so cool!!! i know as mei fan and shiori i looked up to her a lot, i don't want this to be a mile long but she is just so everything, truly

RUI AKIKAZE

Sexuality Headcanon: canonical lesbian. sapphic. girl kisser. well, okay. the only technical 'canon lesbian' is mahiru tsuyuzaki according to the wikis but in my heart of hearts lesbian rui is canon. have you seen her crush on tamao. have you. you should. everyone has. even yuyuko calls it a crush i'm telling you bestie the walls are glass and it's the most wonderfulest thing in the world to me. peace and love on earth

Gender Headcanon: rui akikaze transgender girl icon.

A ship I have with said character: TAMAO AND RUI. FOREVER AND EVER. but also Rui and Yuyuko when it's Fumi and Tamao, I've seen Rui and Shiori and while I don't actively ship it myself because I have others with Shiori that are important to me, I find it to be extremely adorable and 100% can get behind this. love is love

A BROTP I have with said character: anyone from rinmeikan, and mostly yuyuko! I also super love love love the friendship she has with Shiori it makes me so stupidly happy, and all of her interactions with others in her bond stories too! I said this in the Mei Fan one ages ago but 100% I think Rui and Mei Fan would have lots to discuss and relate on, ie: their genderisms, their fighting abilities in acting and how they both reflect/differ, plus their intense admiration for their senpais and partners, etc! and of course, it goes without saying but definitely her relationships with the Chasing Sirius squad, that being Tamao/Kaoruko/Futaba, and especially Kaoruko and Futaba if we count Tamao as something romantic. we love you rui my friend rui

A NOTP I have with said character: same as always, nothing weird nothing gross. there are a lot of characters I don't see working out with Rui like Maya, Claudine, Akira, most of frontier and seiran, etc, but they're not like worth mentioning here. mostly Kaoruko/Futaba if anything, and Fumi too of course. these are all just personal though!

A random headcanon: she's the gentlest giant in the whole wide world but she unintentionally scares everyone in the dorms because she will silently just stand in the hallways or doorways especially because she's too nervous to speak up and get someone's attention until it's too late and they see her or her shadow and freak out. also also she helps tamao with the garden and is always accidentally crushing the flowers or is too gentle and doesn't pack enough dirt around them. tamao of course thinks it's sweet and is never upset but will fix them when rui isn't looking after praising her for a job well done anyway, rui will even tend to the garden when tamao can't and it's usually then that she doesn't 'mess up' -- likely because tamao. isn't there

General Opinion over said character: WAWHAWHAHWHAGHAHGHHGHGHJFGG. ONE OF MY FAVORIEST EVERS. I love everyone in revstar soooo so so so much everyone is a comfort character but if you held me at gunpoint to give you my top 3 characters I would probably have to say Yachiyo, Rui, and uhhhh uhhhh uhhhh um. um. never mind this is way too difficult . but uhhh!!! Rui Rui Rui I love Rui Akikaze so so much, I am so very endlessly proud of her and every development she's had since the beginning of starira's story especially arcana onwards. she's done so much for herself and for those around her, she's really grown into such a beautiful person. I hope she's proud of herself too, and loved herself each and every day

[thelittlestspider]

eric and jackie: 23, 33, 34

23. What are the defining characteristics of their relationship?

i think they make up for each other's weaknesses, while also complimenting each other's strengths. (some of this is headcanon backed up by stuff in the show, and some is just me making things up for landslide lol.)

- ex: jackie is good at working on cars, is handy at fixing things around the house, and kills the bugs eric is too scared to kill. eric is good at cooking and housework (inside stuff like dishes, sweeping, stuff like that). they both do laundry, they're both good at decorating, and they call people the other doesn't want to talk to.

(the reason i say eric is good at cooking and housework is bc 1. kitty would not allow her children to be bad at cooking. it would be like sacrilege to her. 2. i feel like she would at least make sure they knew how to do laundry and stuff bc both parents work. plus i feel like he has a particular hatred of yard work bc of red always forcing him to do it. and i feel like red looked down on eric doing housework bc he'd consider it too feminine, which was a point of contention in their household.)

- i think one of the reasons they rag on each other so much (aside from jackie's selfishness) is that they see themselves in each other and they don't like what they see. they also envy each other. let me explain:

a) eric is close to the poverty line. jackie is rich (or her father is anyway). eric envies her wealth and the doors it opens for her. jackie envies eric for his seemingly close knit family, his position as the center of the gang, and his longterm friendship/social standing in the gang (jackie being the only other girl in the gang besides donna, who also sort of suffers her own girl torments despite being part of the group.)

b) i think jackie ribs eric so bad bc she thinks she wants a big, tough masculine guy (hyde, kelso), because that's what she's socialized to want, but that's not really true. because every time jackie gets with a guy, she tries to change them to be more feminine (ex: her makeover of kelso with makeup and a dress, her makeover of hyde's room, or if they are (fez, eric) she mocks them for it because she's insecure about her own femininity and the fact she likes that about them.

i can't remember what episode it is, but there's a scene where donna asks jackie what she wants in a man and i can't remember *exactly* what she says but it was something like

1. buys her presents

2. compliments her

3. goes shoe shopping with her

and i can't remember the rest. but her list basically describes eric. which is why i think donna looks so surprised during that scene. because she sees it but jackie doesn't.

c) i think eric sometimes feels outside of the group because he's closeted, and not very masculine. things the gang ribs him about A Lot. plus being a nerd. and i think it's one of the reasons why he 'hates' jackie, is because she's another person trying desperately to fit in who doesn't really. it's sort of like tyler going after marla in fight club for being another faker in the groups he frequents. she disrupts everything. her very existence messes up the status quo. but she's sort of free in her untetheredness.

- they're also bisexual. this isn't canon. it should be though.

33. How do they flirt? Who’s the worse flirt?

jackie tries to go the coy route at first because that's how she thinks it's supposed to go, and eric Doesn't Get It. so she goes fuck it and goes the bold route, and at first eric is freaked out because it's jackie and they have a complicated friendship, but then once he gets used to the idea he's into it.

eric is the worse flirt because he tries to be joe cool about it and jackie thinks it's lame. then he tries to just be sincere instead, and while he's still uncool, jackie likes him anyway.

34. Do they have any inside jokes?

i don't know if they do or not. i feel like they have inside jokes about silly stuff the gang has done over the years.

[egirlgarak]

ds9!!!!!! ( a show i have never watched but still stan for garak and julian)

Favourite character: you wouldn't believe me if i told u... (garak)

Funniest character: ok now this isn't even based solely on the show, bc in the show i don't think one character is consistently funnier than the others, but the jadzia that lives in my head is actually full of silly little jokes. not necessarily in a laugh out loud sort of way, but in an observant and affectionately tongue-in-cheek sort of way. and i love her for that

Best-looking character: yes! (kira. julian. normie bisexual behavior...)

3 favourite ships: surprisingly i actually don't have any one ship i'm overwhelmingly devoted to. i mean, garashir, of course is the fan favorite. but my others would be. actually all odo based? quodo...kirodo (not in the show, but in the sapphic t4t version of them that lives in my mind)...lwaxanodo.....i just think they're fun

Least favourite character: dukat. fuck that guy

Least favourite ship: the rare dukat/kira shippers are freaks 2 me im sorry

Reason why I watch it: for comfort. for my little friends in deep space. for my little friends in deep space who are always in situations so i don't have to be.

Why I started watching it: buhhh it was 2020, i was about to drop out of my master's and had nothing else to do 👍

[springboggle]

Idk, you'd be surprised on how much LGBT discourse is actually a way to keep us in a cycle of not getting anything done while also extracting sex and other things from other groups of people. I think this is more obvious on the chick side of things, but it's pretty common for bisexual women to be used for sex or gratification by lesbians while said lesbians are posting about how bisexual women are men obsessed freaks and how they only date other lesbians because bisexual women are immune to misogyny and homophobia or whatever. This also applies to transcourse, though it's a little different because one group does actually hold power over the other-that being said, the results are the same. Constant fucking wanking over what a cuntboy or "theyfab" is or isn't doing and roleplaying being a man hating dyke while also reblogging "theyfab" nudes and sliding into cuntboy dms and asking if they're a squirter 🙄 it's all so fucking silly lmfao

dean transfag moments masterpost

(part 1 - seasons one through five)

'my boobs' in s1e1 as his answer to if anything about him is real (bonus he is being slammed over a car by a police officer at this moment)

'do I look like Paris Hilton?' (s1e5) this one should be self explanatory

automatically wearing the towel Like That round his head in s1e8 even tho his hair is short. i know what you are

AND in s1e10, sleeping shirtless but with the blanket clutched over his chest a la female love interest post sex scene

s1e13, His relationship with Cassie ending because he 'came out' as a Hunter and then promptly fucked off. the vibes r like,,,, they were girlfriends and Dean freaked out because he didn't think she'd be into the real him. also u know they were butch/femme.

[image description: Sam looking distraught. The subtitles read ‘But you can’t just fill up that hole with whoever you want to.’ End description]

making Sam third wheel in s2e3 while he does shots w the bad boy whose life he just saved. in general his whole Buffy/Faith thing with Gordon. the question of whether he's 'like you' (Gordon) or like sam. but also. The phrasing here ^^^ as Sam accuses Dean of following Gordon around because of his dead daddy issues. Wow.

the only men who would introduce themselves with their star sign (s2e7) are slags, fags, and egg repressor partners of cool bisexual women. dean is or has been all three.

'mmm, Daphne, love her!' (while talking about scooby doo, in s2e11) who TALKS like that! PLEASE work on your heterosexual man impression, this is so far into parody that it's camp

'you are kind of butch, I think you're overcompensating' << from Sam, same episode, when Dean asks why people keep assuming they're gay. what have i been SAYING!

S4e1 he references ‘my perky nipples’ as the answer to what makes him so special. Exactly what I would have done. No notes.

Look. I am not going to include every Castiel interaction or we’d be here all day. But, same ep as above, Castiel saying he thought Dean would be able to comprehend his real form/voice was verrryyy inchresting

Ok, Jesus, I thought ‘my boobs’ was bad but that is still within the realms of cis boy joke. On the other hand, find me a cis boy who not only uses the word ‘hymen’ but refers to their own???? (S4e5)

S4e14 a siren who has so far only appeared as female strippers ensnares Dean as some guy who thinks Dean’s cool and shares his music taste.

Totally eclipsed by ^^^ but even the fact he spent his time in a strip club talking with his new boy best friend about led zeppelin

Normal Guy Dean in s4e17 casually chatting about project runway?????

THEY COPIED HIS OUTFIT OFF A FUCKING KEN DOLL???

s5e5 the anecdote about a girlfriend making him try on her silky panties* and him kinda liking it.

I lied I will include the occasional Cas moment: Same ep Dean's nightmare-scenario-future Cas being an aggressively heterosexual slut . But also present-day-Dean’s initial joy at hearing that Cas is still around and you ‘can’t get rid of him’. Scream

(Do you think nightmare-scenario-future Cas and nightmare-scenario-future Dean ever let the streams cross during the biweekly spiritual mmfffff sevensome)

s5e7 Dean becomes an old man and immediately decides fuck it, time to lounge about in a short robe

ok this i can't explain but the silly dancing he does when he's young again. old timey corny yet self aware careless tboy swag

it feels like cheating to even put Dean's obvious mancrush on 'Dr Sexy' (s5e8) on here but like. im not gonna not put it on

And finally, that in his weakest moment, mourning every significant relationship he had, we are shown how bad it’s gotten when Dean succumbs to the lamest most out of character lifestyle possible: bland, monogamous heterosexuality

*having to use that word makes me wanna throw up. ur welcome

i love gordon freewoman so much <3 she is so cute and occupies my mind at all times. i have to ask if u have any more hc for her or anything you wanna talk about regarding her bc i love her

first off, as always, i'm blown away by all the support for my silly little headcanon/au!! genuinely it warms my heart that people love gordie so much. second, i can't give *too* much away because there's a fic on the (admittedly far-off) horizon. will keep you all updated, but i am a slow writer!

answer under the cut, since it's kinda long:

anyways, gordon is canonically incredibly confrontational. he solves all his problems in the series with shouting matches (and then violence, should the shouting not deter whoever stepped on his toes).

for my gordon, i think that she can solve external conflict like this pretty damn easily, but when it comes to internal conflict, she's absolutely lost. shouting at herself, while sometimes cathartic, is ultimately incredibly unproductive. so, throughout her life, she's learned to externalize all her conflicts, and if that doesn't work: avoid the hell out of it. for the love of god, gordon, do *not* think about how the mirror freaks you the fuck out. just look away.

well, after the events of canon, and gordon is left with ptsd, she finally gets a damn therapist and gets marginally better at examining her thoughts and feelings. but the mirror, man, it still taunts her, and she doesnt *get* why. it takes benrey (because of course it does) to shatter her ideas of gender and implant the idea in her head that, hey, you can just trans your gender, that's a thing you can do. and that TERRIFIES her and she's awful at hiding it. for her, she's like "oh god i can't have another major life event happen. i simply can't it's too fucking much". but benrey, an alien with the weakest grasp on gender possible, keeps fucking saying things that make gordon inch closer and closer to an acceptance of her own identity.

i just think the idea of gordon being so neurotic about gender roles and body image while benrey genuinely does not understand At All is so fucking funny. and benrey's outright dismissal of all the weird cisnormative shit gordon's got lodged up in her brain really does make her take a step back and go "huh. maybe this is all actually bullshit. is this bullshit? has everything i've been told a lie? has-" and benrey tells her to shut the fuck up (lovingly)

miscellaneous stuff:

benrey is the first one to know and they accidentally out her to the rest of the science team, who don't really care at all, because they're all different flavors of trans anyway. they pretend to have not known when gordie actually comes out to them though, because they LOVE and RESPECT her!!!!!!! (and dont want gordie to beat benrey's ass)

she picks the name gordie because 1. i am lazy and 2. she is Not a creative person. i think benrey tries to bully her about it but she shouts back that he named himself fucking benrey of all things, so he shuts up about it (for a little bit)

gordie had been out as bisexual for a long time and BOY was her coming out experience in college stressful. which is why she did not want to be trans she was like "no god i have to do it AGAIN? and CHANGE MY NAME ABOUT IT?"

obviously after all the stress and shit she's incredibly happy. and she is a wonderful mom to joshie. i think she would be a soccer mom for sure

there's a bunch of frenrey shit that happens too because i have a brain disease that makes me think about them 24/7 but this is NOT about benrey it's about gordie. my beloved

Watchhing until we meet again part 3

He had to do a little finger key to lie to them

Go king shoot your shot (new guy) . I love this show, even if something happens with him it's not going to be a drama thing , just more of a "normal life and healing process" thing and i love them for it. Like i get the thrill of plot but none of the anxiety for bad irrelevant drama

Not Manaow fake crying next to them (!) (silly funny stuff)

✨bisexual✨

Oh he said the thing. (He's a little too close but whtvr) . This was such a fun hot potato game

So many things about this show look a thousand times more natural than in other shows (acting and writing my beloved) editing too but i think it could be a tiny bit better maybe.

"Let me know when you're home" and "people think we're a couple" is the kind of friendship representation i appreciated today.

I love them. Im there yes i love them

Casual girlfriend ask ( though he told you he was straight LAST NIGHT)

Their flirting is cute but sometimes awkward enough that it just seems realistic, i love them.

Laughing with shitposty photos, he's just like me

I think im getting bi M (?)

6:30 !?!!!! They're down bad

"we talk sometimes" he says. You woke up at six am for him (reincarnated soulmatism aside).

The dialogue just seems so much more natural i like it so much

I like them so much that i don't even care that they use facebook

God i dont know what it is about the friendships and the show it just makes me feel like im seeing queer rep , normalized and all , and i mean like that bubbly happy feeling of it

Man just has a resting bitch face dont hold it against him (dean)

"you look like you were looking for someone all the time" sjdbdh "you found them right ?" Sjdndn

Friendshipsbin this show 👌👌

(that getting ready before jumping in to swim scene with win and dean did more for making them look cool than anything else theyve done )

Win eyeing pharm and Team and Manaow making fun of them in the background 👌

Team a menace for the feeding thing, Win "i can fix this" moment

Idk what it is bit everyone freaking out about it in the back makes it less stupid sexual somehow, like they're in on it so its fun ("enjoy yourself like we're not here" and people posting about them kinda ruined it for me it was weird)

Dean del din sibling relationship development better be coming.

Del rolling her eyes at alex coming to flirt. What did alex do to del? Or is she just like that cause she knows about dean. Why is alex acting like a moody boyfriend?

Alex there are other fish in the sea

Okay so Del just figured it out about dean and pharm so why does she not like alex?

I like your face 👌

No they dont

They don't have shooting birthmarks.

Okay i think dean might know that the dreams are real and put together the birthmark shooting dots , i think pharm hasn't, which is weird but ill take it, he probably thinks the dreams are just based on information from his life (like what you'd normally think) and so the mark came first (chicken egg situation)

Oh wait it just dawned on him

"im here" (theyre here now) sjdhdhdbdd

I have to say, i think the suicide is hitting me because its more... its closer to home than other storylines i guess so it hits harder.

The politics are the cough. the disease is flooding to chase the trend of personal brand building. Events and confusing communities and arguably the arrangement of the direct market itself. No simplicity and lots of expense with shakeup one after the other.

And some transparently business or out of story disrupting existing (in humans versus mutants)

Starting Marvel, as an example, is harder than figuring out where to come in on the Fate series. I mention this because Comics are often compared to manga and yet however convoluted in silly may get for the most part you buy one collection, or let's not kid ourselves pirate, or wait until an animated adaptation comes out realize that it's pretty much faithful, go back to the core comic and so long as you start from the beginning you can follow to the end. Even if it's based off of a visual novel chances are everything will progress from beginning to end. It's usually when that models messed up with that something becomes destructive and difficult to follow or deal.

Unlike with manga where if you're having trouble following where to start with, like the Fate series, you can at least enjoy the latest Nasu verse offering. especially if you can turn your brain off and just engage with one example. Or if you don't want to deal with that you can just go to an entirely different property from a similar publisher that scratches a similar itch.

Like the premise of America Chavez buts I think she did it wrong? Well it's not like you can just switch over to Champions because that's a mess as well along with Miles Morales Spider-Man and ms. Marvel or spider woman.

it's expensive, patchy, filled with all sorts of weird continuity that you end up having to buy just to start. As such only the dedicated fanbase could possibly tolerate it but that also is exclusive in the sense that it's so to them with a history that it feels kind of off-putting.

I like the comicsgate comics I have heard of. I can also understand why we try to move away from that. Such as very obvious p*** tracing. And so on. Yes supposed diversity has basically led to a similar story of we're here now we're going to f*** the status quo too strongly relating to the audience or the author's pandering.

But it's not just they're going to have a trans person in an announcement. Which is a pretty major character trait I imagine that they want to talk about that or include it in the announcement.

the discontinuity does not help you build upsetting characters characterization and Circumstance. This is what I mean you're following themes story and events building to something then a new author will come in and he or she will wreck all that up so that they can go in an entirely different direction. Okay maybe you don't like the homosexual overtones of Eddie Brock and Venom. Maybe you want to stick it to all the slash shippers on Tumblr. But they've been the people who been following the comic and there's been a multi-year build up with sleeper, Eddie Brock and Venom's son.

going no now Eddy has a son he doesn't know about. oh and he was in the car that killed a child and him and Venom hate each other? Basically says f*** that other story we're going back to this story because I liked it better when I was young and I like it this way. And this kind of hostility is constant with every Changing of the Guard which can happen almost every two to three years. This keeps happening right when things are starting to get good or conclusion is reached. this undermines any death any major event or twist especially when it's in the headlines as if it's going to be meaningful

we can't even engaged in the illusion that someone has a plan charting something out when it feels like it's always fly by the seat of the pants the slightest whim can blow off the direction. We know in our conscious nothing that happens matters or at the very least when things end and we don't move on to something else then realize that there was a change but it seems seamless. Or at the very least it's a damn good seem that makes a very likeable and unique and distinct quilt. Again comparing and contrasting with manga

basically constantly ragging on the Politics as if that's what's causing the problem as opposed to Poor practices is off. yeah the customer service is definitely a no-go. But let's not kid ourselves Fanboys started it

I can straight up say that if you had a book that was straight up gay. like it starred the gay couple that once was Rescued by Captain America including his childhood hero And they were joined by the gender-bending exiled courtesan. you know those girls that always hang around in the background of Thor comics and everybody talks about winching and all that stuff? What if we actually focus on one of them and we threw in some mythological deviant queerness with the idea that men who practiced a certain form of Witchcraft had to be ladies. Now in practice this often meant anything from cross-dressing to performing ceremonies with a freaking dildo. But this is Comics so instead I can just go with the idea that after he uses magic so much he can turn or does turn into a lady. At first it's inadvertent but then he Masters the power so much that can transform into any lady. So he can go from weak little nerdy witch man to a Vanir (super durable pretty strong) or she giant.

It gets even more so when apparently he can change not just to a generic woman but any specific one. so he can literally clone an individual lady alive or dead. If she's dead you can act as a vessel for her soul so effectively while he might be booted deep within he can resurrect anyone's female loved one. Until changes back. The Twist is that while he won a beauty contest to be one of Odin's many many side pieces due to the politics and sociology of the time and the setup Odin didn't like admitting that they were both men or equals. Now the crossdressing courtesan isnt necessarily the nicest person. In fact the number one thing that characterizes him is that he hates the alpha male warrior culture or at least what he perceives of the negatives of it of Asgard. But that doesn't necessarily mean that he provides a good alternative. This will be a total retcon. not only would this make Odin effectively bisexual -although it's long since established that it seems like he's banged about so much he has had a child with everyone but his wife- but the idea that Loki and Thor grew up exposed to this weird gender-bending courtesan who tried to compete with the affections of their Queen Mother just so that that way he could get ahead and hated showing the absolute loyalty and Devotion to Asgard seeking glory in battle and death as opposed to conniving Gatling favor and trolling for booty while having to serve drinks for the Warriors that came by and were celebrated in the castle Hall.

Probably make up all sorts of relationships with other lesser-known Danny's that haven't been as much part of Marvel Thor but are important or at least well-known for the tradition. I would also shamelessly ripoff @gumon and her take on Norse mythology. With giants that just naturally produce children whether male or female. anyway ignoring all the continuity just so I could bring in the mythology that I want I would have it so that he was ultimately exiled because he got set up on a failure assignment. He got assigned to the Blue Mountain the traveling planet or set of rocks now that was the home of one of the Warriors Three the blue guy well the guy who wears blue and looks kind of like Angus Khan

The entire point of this is to get a different eye view of the Marvel Universe. What was it like to be one of those disposable pin-up girls. What is the gay population in gay culture and gay people been doing and light of the world that's been invaded from the ground been in a Perpetual fight with remnants of terrorists from World War II. And of course how they've been in for you property and making their lives and how are they responding to the fact that New York finally recognizes their marriage and of course life in the Twilight years as a gay couple that's constantly facing mortality. Also with the usual hey I'm an immortal mystical being who's having to relearn how to be human after having lived a life with a God's but neither being loyal to them nor a particular loyal to my own people. Along with the issues of the shapeshifter gender Dynamics and identity and all other sort of things. Pretty damn gay book. But I read it

Kids like imitating what they see so ripping the idea that someone's going to take some of the more iconic X-Men looks and style themselves after them when they know that their mutant doesn't seem wrong. I like the idea that we're going to open with someone who manages an online community for mutants. I like the idea of Trailblazer I like the ladies thick and I like the fact that she has a more utility power that she's going to have to work with and around hopefully being clever though that backpack does run the risk of becoming the Omnitrix and having the solution for every problem that you need.

Basically I like the children of the atom a bit more than the whole lineup of the new Warriors. I think people really should give the characters a chance so if you're turned off by yet another set of incest siblings in Marvel ya no problem or argument here.
