i'm so tired of the yaoi-ification of mlm ships where people feel the need to make one of them (usually the fandom-assigned bottom) into a teeny tiny waifish twink and the other into a huge musclebound super aggro guy (usually the fandom-assigned top) i know this is like a thing many people have been saying for years but i just feel like it has never actually gotten better in fandom spaces. the fatphobia of it, the gender essentialism, the homophobia, it's all so fucking annoying it makes me want to scream
I mean I just saw a post talking about the Getos accepting Satoru and that makes him think about giving up sorcery. And I'm here like, no?? That would never happen.
I'm very fond of the hc that Suguru had a very normal childhood, or as normal as one can have given his circumstances, and comes from a home — a place that has love for him. And Suguru used to take satoru with him to visit his parents and they were both very loved in that household. I love all of that. It's like a drug to me. But to take that and say that satoru would see them as an escape from the life of a sorcerer is just plain wrong.
But seeing the love and acceptance that satoru felt from suguru's parents and the love and acceptance that he knew was there for Suguru too, that would fuck him up when he comes to know about Suguru killing his parents.
This is not new, I love thinking about Suguru deciding to kill his parents, and then sticking to that decision and carrying it out and living with those consequences. Living with that on his conscience. But I also do love the way satoru reacts to all of this. He is surprised and horrified. And that does kinda point towards him knowing them because otherwise I kinda don't see the guy who was separated from his parents at a young age care about the implications of suguru's actions. Especially when he's just 17. And I love to chew on it. A satoru who takes on suguru's part of grief that comes friom his actions too, because suguru refuses to feel it.
I love all of that, but to argue that satoru feels like he lost a way of life because of that is a disservice to who satoru is.

i'm actually starting to believe that a substantial chunk of f1 fans, especially on tumblr, have curated views on drivers based off of what they've read in fanfics. and i don't mean this in a way to demonize fanfiction because i indulge in it myself, but seeing as the yaoi aspect of this fandom seems to actually override the actual sport side sometimes, i wouldn't be surprised if my suspicions are true.
They are making a movie on hidden inventory?
YES (it's going to fucking murder me)
