Can we get the queerbait reaction meme from the latest update? Because that is 100% me and I need that in my life 🤣😭🤣😭🤣😭

Here you are <3 for your queerbaiting endeavors

Picture Genderbent Janeway still having that 'I prefer captain but ma'am in acceptable in a crunch' moment with Harry in episode 1 and it's never addressed again. Thank you.

like what IS the explanation for the kirill/zuccy not weird wild. are we supposed to see that & not call them fags or are the wild. once again. inexplicably. queerbaiting us

[booksandpaperss]

hey do you guys remember when there were actual byler’s on the tag legitimately trying to argue that byler wouldn’t count as queerbait if it didn’t happen. yeah glad that’s not happening anymore 💀

Nothing's more homoerotic than being covered in your best friend's blood after he got shot and him reaching out towards you after he falls down.

*grabs your hands earnestly*

it's not about the Canon, that is not to invalidate any feelings that is to say we are fandom, our works are transformative because we take the bits and pieces of a something we love and we break it, take the pieces that speak to us a spin them into something that resonates, it's about the dynamics and the potential and putting characters we adore In Situations because the narrative failed them or it failed us, or for fun or for science or just because it's fucking hot, it's not that serious and it holds a certain gravitas

it's playing in the sandbox, pure and simple, beholding ourselves to Canon is the antithesis of Spirit of the thing

do you see?

I’ve seen some unbelievably wild takes about the finale including accusations of queerbaiting (!!!) and that’s just on Twitter, I haven’t waded into tumblr yet. Laughing at this top tier clown shit is gonna be my bedtime reading tonight.

[idlestories]

lots of vague but irritated thoughts about the state of fandom and the idea that anyone is ever owed or entitled to representation or the story they want like. that’s not how art works!!

[thekats]

You know, some people make me wonder if they even like the show. Or the book. Or the author(s). Or anything or anyone involved.

Just because two male actors didn't fuck onscreen the second their characters shared a scene.

[skrunksthatwunk]

kazumaji fans where do we think they fall on this graph im conflicted

bc like. sometimes it's actually agonizing how blatant they are while still never being allowed to be together (i.e majima everywhere system. oh m.y fucking god dude) but sometimes it's more subtle though still Really Gay i.e. yakuza 3 and the fucking. movie. do we feel it's insulting or peak or smth else

I would pay every dollar and cent that I have to be locked in a room with Robin Hobb for an hour long conversation about gender and sexuality because I cannot take this anymore

[rathockey]

the thing about that damn post is. i dont even really care if theyre right or not i simply dont care. i dont think theyre right! but even if they are. im simply looking away

[goongiveusnothing]

Jeremy O harris liked and rted that tweet calling Harry’s queerbating out . He’s also been handing out with Olivia lately LOL it’s just a funny coincidence

has he? teehee
