thinking about how Oda chosing Luffy, a pirate, to be the protagonist of One Piece may be one of the most brilliant story moves by any shonen mangaka ever. by virtue of its main character being an in-world criminal, OP naturally lends itself to becoming a story about the exposure of a society festering with corruption for what it really is, and the dismantling of a dystopia and its propagandist facade. you simply do not get a story like that with a shonen protagonist who conforms to or tolerates the shitty system they're born into

The abacus tree is only a romantic date spot for as long as you can withstand the occasional marble dropping on your head.
(For @playerkingsley who prompted "moonward’s fiona & jacob on a taxidermy pufferfish drink date")
lineart sketch under the cut, which I liked as well:

Don’t be fooled the real reason mihawk wears a hat is because he hasn’t been able to control his hair since he was a child.
A la the live action, I am a curly hair truther and I think Shsnks would be just as obsessed as me with Mihawk’s head of unruly curls that refuse to just lay flat! Like wants them too.

I am not normal about this family. I need them all. I want them all. I love them so much. I know they’re evil and stuff but I can change them, trust. Tabata pls make this again but put Lucius in there too this time. I’m going to go insane about them. I have so much love for them it’s almost embarrassing.

People in this fandom will really look at The Fool, Patience, Lacey, Carson, Sedric, Hest, Davvie, Lecter, Kennit, Ash/Spark, and yes, even Fitz himself, and still have the gall to call it queer bait.
These characters are explicitly queer, their actions impact the narrative, they are well written, and their identities are treated with respect. That is the best possible queer representation you could ask for in any story.
I've seen people on tumblr basing the likelihood of if they read this series on whether or not it's "actually gay" and I'm here to tell you that it is. There are queer characters. There are queer protagonists. And no matter what you see people in the fandom say, Robin Hobb wrote some amazing queer representation in a genre that rarely sees it at all.
TLDR;
Queer bait = disrespectful marketing ploy that exploits queer audiences
Queer bait ≠ "my two favorite characters never have sex"
