i like ghostflower (hell I draw fanarts for them) but I’ve decided I like the version of them in my head more and will just stay away from the fandom in general cuz I’ve seen some discussion and they just make me go “what on earth are y’all on” 💀💀💀💀

just saw another one of those "stop shipping aroace characters and saying aroace people can date" posts and im literally going bonkers..

please.. the COMMENTS on these posts are SOOO CRAZY.. "you wouldnt ship a lesbian with a man, would you?" ohhh i see. so you didnt get the point at all is what im hearing.

(random examples from a post i saw)

AROMANTIC MEANS "LITTLE TO NO ROMANTIC ATTRACTION." romance repulsed aro people definitely deserve more representation and it sucks that there isnt much at all, BUT that doesnt mean you should just erase the rest of the community in its entirety ? yall know aro is a spectrum, right? why are you being dense?

why do you insist on putting aroace people in a little box? telling us we can only be one thing and the rest of us arent valid? we dont need your help! we dont want the box! leave us alone!

YOU CAN AND SHOULD MAKE YOUR "WE NEED MORE ARO CHARACTERS WITHOUT ROMANTIC RELATIONSHIPS" POSTS. DO THAT. BUT STOP SPREADING MISINFORMATION AND BEING BIGOTED. YOU ARE A BIGOT IF YOU REFUSE TO ACCEPT OTHERS IN THE COMMUNITY WHO ARE DIFFERENT THAN YOU.

and even more when allos make/comment on these kinds of posts.. why are you, allo, trying to tell me, aro, how i should act as an aro person? how i should deal with characters i relate to? ur weird. get a hobby.

anyway yeah, my biggest problem with this discourse isnt really the people making their own posts, its when i or another aro person makes our own content of aroace people in romantic relationships or simply EXIST as aroace people in romantic relationships, and people think its okay to tell us that we aren't portraying aroace people correctly.. as if we arent writing our own experience? please just leave us alone im literally begging you. at least do some research on others in the community, why do you only think about yourself and whatever youve seen on tiktok?

really actually kind of enjoy how the big lore moments are sort of quiet on a singular stream (or a small group!) instead of the events solely being the lore; i think there would be this hesitation to develop anything solo if the server reinforced this idea that Big Lore could only happen during scheduled events and days. instead the more narrative-progressing moments (take the baghera hybrid experiments revelation or the philza birdnapping for recent example) are very low-key and almost unhyped up— there’s no expectation for that kind of lore necessarily at the time which makes it more rewarding to experience as a viewer. big fan of how they do the events as player bonding time rather than serious narrative progression because it allows all the players (especially the ones who don’t engage in the rp side that much) to participate and get to know each another more; it’s very neat it’s really smart it’s nicely executed

im happy my post is garnering discussion but honestly i wasnt around for 2018-2021 fandom on tumblr and i was mainly talking about how its kind of silly to get mad at people for portraying colonizer countries as mean, or calling it demonization and stuff. like its okay not to like personally portraying ur fav characters as mean or part of the state, but getting irritated at the fact that it exists or is popular imo kind of misses the fact that this… is the state and nation personification fandom. and its hard to say its not canon when canon did once portray the characters in uniform and at times involved in their state activities… like the early strips discussing western imperialism in china is literally ‘china being bullied by the allies’ ‘france wanting to grope china’ ‘china being treated like a maid’ etc etc like they were very much. the state LOL also china and japan’s canon relationship, as much as I have my issues with it, has an entire thing about china being stabbed by japan… i do feel like hetalia started out as a history nerd’s history exploration that blended humour with ‘what i find cute’ with satire etc etc, which inevitably involves illustrating the personifications as vessels of state and culture, and although the modern strips have deviated quite a bit… well, different people will approach this series for different reasons, right? Whether its serious or comedic content showing the characters as mean or imperialist or unpleasant, it’s not something that deviates too far from canon (if we take all canon eras into consideration) nor is it surprising given how history laden the topic is.

Why is it SO HARD not to become a godawful control freak ego driven monster when collaborating on important, world-improving projects with people who SHARE UR VALUES AND WANT THE SAME THINGS AS YOU

arc 8 ottosuba and mutually assured destruction (devotion)

basically i wanna talk about this again but more Specifically bc they are gonna fuck each other over so fucking bad. like this is the most disastrous combo of all time. you got natsuki subaru who has rbd AND a suicide pill in his fucking mouth that he can use at any time AND he will die as many times as it takes to save Anyone he cares about. and then you pair him with otto suwen, aka a devoted little freak whos willing to let entire countries and millions of people, including people subaru cares about, die to save subaru. and otto has died for subaru twice now and will gladly do so again on top of that. they are the absolute worst combo of all time bc natsuki "ill save you no matter how many times i die" subaru and otto "i would let anyone and anything die to save you" suwen are inevitably going to come into conflict. otto wont let subaru die at any cost but subaru having rbd means that hes gonna win no matter what. hes gonna get what he wants. hes gonna die and theres nothing otto can do to stop it. and even if otto does stop subaru, its a lose lose bc either subaru dies and uses the info he got to beat otto next time, or subaru and otto end up having more fights with each other anyway, or otto does end up stopping subaru in some way (example: otto wanting louis to die) and subaru gets pissed at him over it, or all the otto permadeath flags end up being real and otto dies permanently and subarus gonna be destroyed and i bet ottos still gonna be like "i told you we shouldve left vollachia when we had the chance" on his literal deathbed bc him permadying proves his literal point this whole arc. and subaru can save otto all he wants but if otto ever figures out this hurts subaru in any way ottos never going to get over it. hes gonna be upset and pissed forever. there is no winning with these two. their devotion is violent and theyve literally found their match in each other. bc their devotion strips the other person of their own free will and choice in the manner bc they keep saying "no. i have to save you no matter what, even if you get upset at what im doing and even if i do all of this behind your back without ever telling you." and if they keep being stubborn theyre just gonna end up dragging each other down - which is the exact opposite of their goals to save each other. they are likely going to kill each other by the end of this, metaphorically or not. and its going to be because of love. do you understand. how do you save someone who wants to save you first. how do you save someone whos devoted themselves to you, body and soul, in the most violent way possible.

also if otto manages to read the tome once its restored... he's gonna figure out rbd.

if you imagine that guy from saw and he's sawing his own leg off in the bathroom but it's just like, a normal bathroom and he's not chained to the wall or anything and he really didn't have to saw off his leg at all but he imagined a situation in which he would have to do that so he decided to get it over with as soon as possible. well that's how i approach all my interpersonal relationships

there's a lot of things people blame for why fandoms feel like ghost towns these days, but no one's really talked about the way discord's contributing to it

• Hello person who stumbled across my sideblog! I am making this pinned post for u!! Yes! You!

• Im Rem! Im NB! I use He/She/They! Im Aroace! And Im not a minor!

• If you see @dissociative-kittens in your activity, thats me!

So like, in the words of that post going around; cool things being created by weirdos is not coincidental; they go hand in hand (<- rent lowering gunshots)

• There WILL be suggestive content on this blog. Not alot, and not explicit for the foreseeable future, but I am putting this out there as a warning and as additional rent-lowering gunshots lmao. Anything particularly suggestive will be tagged as ‘spicy hot’ (no apostrophes, space included)

🔥🔥I dont RP! I dont respond to ask blogs, so please do not send me asks from them!🔥🔥

Okay that was it thank u mwah

"i don't want to get involved with people like them" in EY's minds translated to "he doesn't want to get involved with people like me", which explains his reaction:

similar thing even happend beforehand:

"this stuff, (that you do,) is embarrassing now"
