#goddd i am so SICK of the ‘character A treats character B like garbage but they’re secretly in love🥺’ trope

Sebek is mean to Silver but secretly cares about him so it’s ok ❌

Silver and Sebek have a very complicated relationship that goes deeper than just your generic tsundere “it’s not like I care about you” trope and has a lot of potential to be an interesting dynamic where they’re not exactly friends but can’t bring themselves to outright hate each other ✅

#warning: rant in tags #goddd i am so SICK of the ‘character A treats character B like garbage but they’re secretly in love🥺’ trope #this may sound like a stretch but it just feels like romanticizing toxic relationships #it CAN be good if its written well #like for example winter x moon from wof #but in silbek’s case its not. #almost all the diasomnia fics i read involves sebek being an ass towards silver for no reason #including the diafamily/silbek ones #and silver just accepts it because sebek is just Like That™️ #i dont wanna be all ‘they have no chemistry so you shouldnt ship them’ #bc i am all for shipping whatever you want aslong as its not gross or illegal #but silbek is just. it feels so toxic and its always written like its toxic #even when its not the author’s intent to present them that way #another good example of this kind of ship is kagehina from haikyuu #in the fics kageyama constantly calls his bf ‘dumbass’ and other derogatory terms in a negative way #this is seen as ‘cute’ and people love to make him toxic and borderline abusive towards hinata #i doubt sebek is THAT bad but he would still be pretty bad in my opinion #i like their dynamic because it has lots of interesting and cool potential #but ppl are obsessed with romance and often water down sebek’s negative traits #to him being an insecure tsundere which somehow excuses all his actions and behavior #tldr: i dont like silbek and it seems like such an unhealthy ship #and it would be much better off platonic imo #twisted wonderland #disney twisted wonderland #twst silver #sebek zigvolt #diasomnia #silver x sebek #silbek
