It’s 2025 and people are still putting posts that absolutely SHIT on rare pairs in favor of their popular ships in the rare pair tags. Keep that shit out of rare pair tags! We don’t care to see you talking about how your ship is better! 🥱

#why do i see people tagging posts that shit on merwaine when i’m actively haunting the merwaine tag…#like how many posts do i have to see that are like ‘well Gwaine could never REALLY be capable of love like that so merwaine could never make #sense! anyways time to erase Arthur’s wife from the narrative entirely’#blocked blocked and blocked #saying ‘merwaine could be something meaningless or FWB but never anything deep meanwhile we have to lie to ourselves that merthur IS’#just tag things appropriately LMAO #if you wanna make posts or write fics about how you see gwaine as a surface-level static character who can never live up to Arthur #then do that in the ARTHUR and MERTHUR tags not the MERWAINE tag #we don’t wanna see your endgame merthur shit. actually we’re going to kill you now #no but rlly the way ppl determine what they will ship based on the amount of screentime the characters get #as opposed to characterization dynamics themes development etc.#to the point that you create whole new personalities for the characters in order to fit the tropes you want to see them in #to the point that it is no longer that character…#and then act like people who don’t see that interpretation in canon are ‘watching w/ their eyes closed’ or whatever it is they always say #truly just go back to your own little world. I don’t need to see your fic about Gwaine using and abusing Merlin until the Real Love comes in #or your fic where he’s incapable of being loving or serious in any way (polar opposite of canon btw)#literally just don’t tag your subtle hate posts and fics with the gwaine tags… it’s not hard #at least merwaine is getting less rare these days. considering the. happenings in canon
