#incest shipping

[queencestqueen]

So I was making GIFs for reasons

and I noticed something in the process. The scene in question is Oliver & Thea reunion scene from Season Two, you know this one? V

The one where Thea turns around and is beyond excited to see her brother. I don't know about the rest of you, but I've also been so distracted by Thea's reaction that I missed two important things.

One) THE EYEROLL

If you watch Roy's reaction instead of Thea's, you'll see that while Thea is busy bridging the distance between herself and her brother, even starting to throw her arms up for a hug, Roy is busy rolling his eyes.

Here's an enlarged version of just Roy's reaction:

(Is he rolling his eyes because he's frustrated that Oliver immediately pulls Thea's attention away? One wonders...)

Letting the scene continue to play, you'll see the siblings embrace. Awww.

This is when the second thing of note occurs. If you watch Oliver's face closely, you'll see what I deem:

Two) THE LOOK OF SMUG SATISFACTION

Oliver gives Roy this look over Thea's shoulder.

(A nonverbal act of Alpha reasserting his place, perhaps?)

These things are subtle, but if you look hard enough, the clues are there. :)

Why are Frozen fans so racist and colorist???

I wish the tags weren't broken but i am gonna go through our archives soon and tag better but here goes.

the whole elsanna fandom is so white supremacist. it just is. Honeymaren is right there!!!! but yeah ugh followers if you want to boost some good posts please feel free to submit links.

anyway the incest/white supremacy accounts for ALOT of the racism and colorism.

Ficcest is the reason I will never be a "normie" it's just... I see a pair of siblings and my brain automatically goes to "they must be fuckin'!" like I just can't help myself... Anyway popimari are still at the forefront of my brain.

Would love to know what you think of the various "problematic" Azula ships that are making the rounds on tumblr.

Zucest, OzaixAzula, ZhaoxAzula, HakodaxAzula etc.

Do you like or ship any? Why or why not?

...oh boy.

I already made a post about Zucest, so I'm not gonna cover too much ground on that front. What I am going to say is that I don't ship it. I get why people ship it. I certainly think it's better than some alternatives. I just don't support it. Mainly because I have issues with Zuko (that I am trying to work out), and I'm just not into incest shipping.

Same goes for Ozula. Mainly because that particular ship is too depressing for my tastes. I'm one of those people who's almost always on the verge of declaring humanity a lost cause, so I don't do too good with darker works and materials. Azula always being under Ozai's thrall triggers that because of the implications.

As for the rest, I do know it's a thing for some people to ship young women (or girls in Azula's case) with older men, but I'm just not into it. Like at all. I mean, no disrespect for those who do enjoy them, but I'm not one of them.

In short, I don't personally ship any of the proships. I know people who do, but I am not one of them. And I certainly don't believe in going after those who do. So anybody who has any bright ideas of going after them, please note that these are fictional characters we're talking about, and the fandom was torn apart by more than one ship war. We are adults, we should handle this like adults, and set an example for the rest.

AITA for 'outing' someone for writing inc*st?

I (20F) am in a moderately large fandom that got popular during the pandemic. Most of the fic for this fandom is gen and platonic pairings, which is a rarity and fantastic. One of the most popular creators in the fandom puts out a ton of gen fics that I really loved. Unfortunately, I learned after that they write fics on a different account, and not just any fics, but inc*st. I'm not talking about found family. These characters are literal brothers in canon. I can't believe anyone would ship them together, much less this person. I unfollowed them and now, whenever I see anyone talking about how much they love this creator, I inform them about the alt account and their ships. Ignorance may be bliss, but I felt awful when I found out and realized I'd been supporting them for so long and I don't want anyone else to feel that way. But someone replied to one of my comments calling me the asshole, telling me I was outing the creator, and to mind my own business. AITA?

What are these acronyms?

i’m not like an incest shipper (although like yeah me and 10k other people shipped wincest in 2013) but the more i see people absolutely losing their minds over the concept of fictional incest the more i laugh like come the fuck on now like this trope is quite literally hundreds of years old and we’re acting like it was invented by fanfiction writers. “richard siken condones incest” “ethel cain condones incest” you mean the artists who write about the rotten and the wretched and the unhealthy and the abusive enjoy digging into fictional relationships that are just that. have you lost your goddamned minds. do you ever read anything except for steven universe fanfiction. like could you handle a 12th grade english lit module on the god of small things.

you know, I used to only like the most wholesome socially acceptable relationships (although, looking long enough at something, you will find problematic aspects in anything ever) and was against shipcest until osomatsu-san came along and my comfort zone expanded ... because. well. there’s nooooo way those socially isolated NEET idiots didn’t explore each other’s bodies. no way in hell

They are the definition of platonic soulmates in every timeline.

Fandom these days is wild.

I remember how Jaydick used to be the go to vanilla, childhood-crush-to-lovers soft ship for young, first time shippers that wanted something simple and completely unproblematic.

Now going by the general consensus if you ship Jaydick you're a fucking freak of nature and you should repent or burn in hell.
