on the other hand. i dont care about whatever they do with their relationship status going forward, bc they DIDNT SHY AWAY FROM SHOWING THEIR CLOSENESS.

wayyyy too many times have series gotten scared of people going "wait is this gay???" and forgo ANY shows of closeness bc of that fear. that, or they no homo it immediately afterward, which again makes it like.... doesnt feel as genuine, yknow? makes it feel like a joke. no homo should be the last thing on your mind at that point.

the bed scene? they went for it! i dont even care about anything else bc that WAS important to show rei finally joining the dynamic, him being comfortable enough to fall asleep immediately, kazuki waking up first again but not leaving like he has to do with his honeypot missions.... even with the possibility of gay allegations (regardless if those come true or not) they showed it in its 100%.

or the latest episode. the 3rd episode was all ABOUT rei accepting the papa title, so i honestly got kinda concerned bc. again. if pa works got too scared of the gay allegations, and listed rei as a family friend or uncle or something, that would completely destroy all the development we JUST saw him go through!!

BUT NO!!!!!! they 100% and fully delivered. theyre both miris papas, they have a good relationship and hang out all the time, and most importantly miri loves and is happy with them :'))) even if they do NOT do bad business. theyre partners now and whatever that means for them, we get to see their partnership development in its entirety ❤

Being a FNAF fan since the first game's release, who can never escape the interest no matter how hard you try is so funny to me

'Cause I could be minding my business talking with a friend and then the movie trailer just *casually* drops out of nowhere and it's now become one of the only things I can think about LMAO

After I watched the trailer I sent it to everyone I know and was all like "LOOK AT MY SPECIAL LITTLE GUYS OH MY GOD"

Literally been waiting for almost a decade just to be like "AWW LOOK AT THOSE GOOFBALLS" instead of being scared 'cause I've been immune to the Gen 1 bots for ages now sdfgfdsfgbfdf they're just silly little idiots to me

everytime i listen to "when he sees me" & i hear the line "or even worse, he could be very nice, have lovely eyes" i can't help but think of lin...

[hirokiyuu]

me seeing that post get one (1) like: well CLEARLY the people want more lin content

Being Vace’s friend -- being Vace’s friend who’s also Rex specifically, really -- means that Rex is never quite sure how far to stick his nose into things. On the one hand, Vace is a big boy now, who does therapy and everything. On the other, Vace’s anger issues mean Rex is going to have to do physical therapy every day for the rest of his life.

“You know…” Rex starts, slowly. “Vace is… he’s not always perfect, yeah? Just… make sure you talk to him about it, I guess.”

The look Lin gives him could not more clearly say Duh, dumbass, if he had the words tattooed on his face. After a moment, though, it smoothes out into something more pensive. “I’m not going into this blind,” he says, one hand cradling his chin. “He gets pissed off all the time, and he’s not always nice about it. But….”

He shrugs a shoulder. “I like that he tries anyways,” says Lin. “And that he talks to me. I like that when he fucks up, he owns up to it. People who do everything right piss me off more than people who make mistakes and then try to fix them.”

Oh, wow, you guys are exactly the right flavor of insane for each other, is Rex’s first thought. He does not say it out loud. “Vace tries pretty hard,” is what he offers up instead.

Lin smiles at that one, just a tiny bit. “Yeah,” he says, simply.

maybe i didnt make it clear enough?

buddy daddies isnt bait of any sort (so far. we only have 4 episodes anyway why are people making such sweeping claims). romantic or platonic, kazuki and rei are PARTNERS, and their development of that term is being shown in its full capacity.

if anything, buddy daddies is probably one of the MOST genuine series i personally have seen in portraying their fictional dynamic. i won't be upset if they leave the series open ended, or if they do decide to make them canonically a couple, as either way— they weren't afraid to show that these two losers DO care about each other and miri. they're a family!

if it's platonic, pa works wasn't afraid to let people interpret it as romantic. they are doing traditionally romantic actions as two fathers, and their full experience as committed partners and parents is being shown on screen. no shying away, no "no homo", they care about each other. it's not bait.

if it's romantic, they have an amazing setup with an interesting foundation that can exist even if not officially confirmed. one of the largest parts of this series is the struggles of parenthood, and that is being portrayed incredibly accurately, again, even with two fathers. kazuki and rei's dynamic is deeply interesting, and seeing it go down a romantic route would not only make sense, but also further add to the interest of the show.

either way, they are Partners. they have a future together, and are dedicated to raising their kid. this IS a queer series that so far, has not pulled any stops. unless pa works suddenly decides to idk revive the dead wife and make kazuki abandon rei or something, im very happy with the way the show has been going. this is not bait, but its also not NOT queer and interpreting it as such isnt harming anyone. even the show itself isnt afraid from letting that be an option. thats all, thanks ❤

no yeah miri's mom was NOT the ""villain"" and she definitely was not presented as such either.

with the smile spell miri mentioned earlier, and just overall despite the situation she was forced into, misaki clearly did her best with miri even with her conflicting emotions.

the only obviously "bad" choice shes made so far was sending miri, a 4 y/o all alone into the city but 💀 to some degree the thought of sending her to be with her dad is also. yeah. like shes not in a place where she can take care of miri properly, and even if miri seemed to be some sort of... bargaining chip?? miris dad has the resources to help miri more than her mom could

and kazuki isnt the ""good guy"" either nor was the situation presented as so black and white. both parties said things that they've internalized due to their own separate situations, and while kazuki was mostly projecting due to his own losses and experiences, itd be good if he manages to learn about some other worldviews.

but yeah tldr: neither misaki nor kazuki were villains, and they werent PRESENTED as such either. they just said whatever and you the viewer have to interpret it.

i am aware a lot of series often demonize women who dont want their children or are in similar situations etc. but thats not what happened here luckily

[7swordsmen]

at least its confirmed that miri can bypass anything even the only one bed rule. fic writers can go wild she'd 100% parent trap-esque them

[7swordsmen]

chaeya and zhongluc at the same time is literally the funniest shit to happen ever

i love anna and i want only the best for misaki but every time they introduce a woman i get so concerned 😭😭 THIS SOUNDS STUPID I KNOW but its like. Kazuki please leave them alone. misaki should NOT be forced to get involved with miri again, letting her stay with kazuki and rei would be a much better decision, she has her own dreams to focus on anyway so pleaseeee dont make her have to get into yet another relationship 💔💔💔

as for anna, she is a PROFESSIONAL taking care of miri is her JOB. dont get me wrong she is so sweet and beautiful and everything but please also leave her alone. the friendship moments were nice but shes just doing her job do not make her get romanced either. Please and thank you.

just in general even if its another guy their age i guess its kind of like. romantic platonic or whatever it is, theyve come to an agreement yknow? theyre partners and coparents now. this is a COMMITMENT. also if kazuki gets w someone on the side its like.... but its majorly REIS house?? you usually go to their places for one night stands are you gonna bring them over now 😭😭

[7swordsmen]

WAIT IM LOSIGN IT ACTUALLY. "friend's kid?" "no." like yes hes finally accepting the role of being miri's papa and assuring her that if a papa to her is someone who saves her, he will save her and MAYBE im reading too much into it but. she IS a "friend's" kid, isnt she? shes your kid but shes also kazukis kid. is kazuki....... not your friend my guy? 🤔 i wonder what ELSE youre saying he could be

[7swordsmen]

they should call it buddy papas then. names already awkward enough. or would it have been too strange for kazuki to go "daddy rei~"

[7swordsmen]

sorry suddenly became xiaobedo brained. its like. both of our pairs of hands may seem delicate but all you see when you see yours are the death youve caused, the debt you must suffer with, the scars. yet all you wished to do with them was rest, and hold things gently. my hands may create life now, but the destruction they could cause, the potential for pain my hands have if i lose control scares me too much to ever hold yours

[7swordsmen]

i went into this fully with the expectations of 1. well theres only two episodes out right now may as well. itll just be a silly little thing and 2. its called ""buddy daddies"" i dont think theyll shipbait but they wont end up together either, which is cool bc this show is inherently queer anyways. but idk fam the "oo papa rei!" teasing and the sleeping together in the THIRD episode might make me reconsider. also its SO MUCH and again there are THREE EPUSODES OUT ONLY. i CRIED. basically
