#idk i just really find her character fascinating and wish we couldve seen her more

[supemaeve]

This is not directed at anyone specifically but I always find it interesting how if one of my gifsets features HL or SB people will make any kind of comment about liking the characters or just general comments about them with no issue, which is fine.

But then I will make one that features Stormfront, like the last one I posted, and people always feel the need to preface with "I absolutely hate this character but...", "This character is despicable and awful but..." when talking about her, even if they're gonna say something general about what's happening on the gifs or about the story.

And this doesn't happen only on my gifsets, obviously. I've seen it in lots of places but it happens a lot and I think it's funny how it only happens with her. It's like you have to justify yourself first in order to make a comment about something you find interesting about the character or even just a general comment or opinion about her . But that doesn't happen with the others...

I don't know, I've just noticed that you can like those two guys or WB or anyone else in the show who's done terrible things all you want and say so with no issue, but if you're going to even allude to finding SF interesting you have to put a disclaimer...

your my Amelia mutual, so amelia for the ask game :]

yaaaaay fucked-up candle enjoyers make some noise!!!

How I feel about this character: I am Amelia lover #1 four years running for a reason, shes great!! i find her just really fascinating, how in particular the line is between her life on the plane and off it, how she copes with being stuck there, her relationship to her own identity, the ways she steps up when airy vanishes in ep8 and how she reacts when he comes back--to what degree is that reaction built on the fear that now she'll have to return home someone completely new? shes just so interesting to me, i like her alot :]

All the people I ship romantically with this character: not many really! im a bit of an aroace amelia fan, however i wont say no to some good scentdapack. as well i think charmelia is also pretty fun, particularly if it written as something that springs up on almost out of desperation the plane and fizzles out back on earth (sorta inverse to my preffered scentdapack dynamic lol)

My non-romantic OTP for this character: scentdapack and charmelia of course, however i am also a super big fan of sodascent. I think their friendship devoid of liam, given the place he holds in the narrative relative to them, is really fun to explore! not to mention how polar opposite they are in their mentalities in relation to the plane. I eat it up

My unpopular opinion about this character: see now I dont know how 'unpopular' this is as an opinion, but I do think they kinda fumbled the bag on her/garrett's investigations ep. I understand wanting to keep up the mystery around her earth life, the way the narrative forces that upon her is fun in one! however for investigations it just feels a bit...much, idk. like the concept that shes just like 'wreathed in mystique' or whatever normally kind of ruins the fun of her downward spiral in the show a little for me. I think we did need to get something a little more personal for that episode to work, but for the time being i choose to interpret it (baselessly) as her just not being particularly close with her manager specifically (which i think is more understandable)

One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon: more screentime in general, of course, but in terms of more specific things I wish she couldve met airy face to face. I think seeing that shes just some guy wouldve made her brain explode more-so than it did w liam. it wouldve been fun i think. as well i wish we couldve seen what her waiting room looked like when she shattered in ep 1, particularly if we could get the chance to see it again some time later on as a point of comparison, really driving home how her mentality has changed over time. and cause im curious.
