If I had a nickle for everytime I've seen Timmy C marrying Florence P even tho he is in love with someone else I'd have two nickles which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.

Fandomry tips on hcs.

I've met another user that was afraid to share their cool Maria story ideas out of fear that they'll get shunned as "hating masculine lesbians", so, just a few things:

1) No matter how popular a headcanon is, it doesn't become canon. Fandoms do not abide by majority rule in which you could never have an unpopular idea.

2) With LGBT+ headcanons, the less you justify them - the better. The rude minority might think that Maria "has" to be a lesbian because her hunter outfit resembles male Knight garb and she cares about a female friend, and everyone who disagrees "lack media literacy" and "has bias". What is it trying to say? That bi or straight women could not look masculine? That the only reason a woman would ever dress masculine is to be the 'man' for her femme? Or that women could not care about other women deeply unless they're attracted to them? Even "historical accuracy" excuse is obsolete, because Bloodborne clearly doesn't abide by real world's history Victorian antics. Female vicars/doctors/hunters and people of color being equal to white people is a dead give-away to that.

It is even more confusing with Malenia, who doesn't even look masculine. Not feminine, either. She looks like 'just a person'. So what makes her "canonically a lesbian"? The fact that she is a strong fearsome warrior? Why? Because bi or straight women would not fight but instead latch onto some guy to protect them...?

You see what I mean. Justifications for why an interpretation HAS to be one thing and not the other only make things worse and push people into very narrow, at times outright offensive stereotypes. 'She is this because I think so' is a good enough reason - and that's where you can see that someone else's thoughts will be JUST as valid!

3) Headcanons and fandomry are not activism. No minority will be effected just because in some fandom people ship some character in some ship. EVER. These things are for FUN, lesbians aren't fairies within which one dies every time you say "I don't headcanon X character as a lesbian". What do you think will happen if many, or even majority of people like bi (or even straight) headcanon instead of lesbian? A life essence of a whole demographics will be dried out?

4) "It is not that hard" is not an argument. It is never anyone's business why someone would deny a very inviting opportunity for a headcanon. Freedom and autonomy is the VERY base of having fun in the fandom. In fact, very often, it is this same toxic attitude what makes average users NOT want to celebrate a strong female character as a lesbian. Because they feel like they had no choice! And many people possess contradictory spirit, that might make them choose something as affirmation that they won't be mocked into thinking a certain way.

_______________

Honestly, it is NOT okay that here and there people have to feel afraid to do something as innocent as to share their ideas, and might just end up leaving an interesting character aside because loud and rude people scared them away. Do not let a character you like get "claimed" by some group just because they were the meanest, do not hide your awesome ideas but instead post them and TAG them. Fandoms are free spaces, not a middle school where the popular girls set the trends and decide who gets to be bullied.

And if some people can no longer enjoy a fandom or a character because other people got a different headcanon? Well, then they were not built to be in fandom spaces to begin with.

#fandomry rambles #bloodborne #lady maria of the astral clocktower #elden ring #malenia blade of miquella #i mean what i saw yesterday was not as bad as a pointer from a friend regarding 'shipped with a man' #but it still was bothersome #naturally all this applies to MLM enjoyers that hiss at every woman in 10 yards distance from- #-a male character they headcanon as gay #i just do not have consistent examples of that #i know like one person was mad at people not seeing how g3hrman was canonically gay #and even that was half-serious and reaction at haters calling him cishet 'when he loves laurence' xd #really not threatening aura

ok actually building more on the idea of jigsaw apprentice grocery shopping trips and the various reasons they all suck at it (John doesn't go out bc he's too ill and also way too recognisable)

Amanda - It's not really Amanda's fault that she sucks at getting the groceries, she struggles with chronic nausea as a side effect of her sobriety so she ends up buying lots of small, bland snack foods and forgets to get actual ingredients for big meals. She does eventually start buying more fruit to make smoothies for John as his cancer gets worse and she flips her shit when she catches hoffman stealing it for himself later

Lawrence - Lawrence should be the best at getting the groceries but he forgets that basically only hoffman and himself can cook (and hoffman sticks to simple staple meals.) He buys a lot of fancy preserved foods and fresh ingredients assuming the other apprentices will cook with them only to find Adam eating feta out of the jar with a fork.

Mark - Hoffman is usually the one to actually get the groceries as he does buy a decent amount of food and he's an okay cook (he used to have regular family dinners with angelina where he'd cook her comfort foods.) He cooks a lot of pasta bakes and roasts, tends to stick to stodgy, hearty meals. The rest of the stuff he buys is usually microwave ready meals and those big chunky meat soup cans for big boys. One year Amanda buys him one of those super cheap kiss the cook aprons as a joke and he now unironically wears it every time he cooks.

Adam - They let Adam buy the groceries one single time and he ended up bringing home seven bags of frozen potato gems, four litres of mountain dew and a pack of darts. John doesn't talk to him for two weeks.

#look i know this is probably one of the more fandom meme-y things ive posted but things have been Tuff and playing with saw characters like #theyre little ken and barbie dolls is my happy place #john kramer #mark hoffman #amanda young #adam faulkner #laurence gordon #i realise i left the other two later jigsaw apprentices out but thats bc i play favourites im sorry #sawposting #they have a little beer fridge and wine cellar but they keep it locked up in its own room to help out amanda #lawrence has a lovely collection of red wine #mark has some nice whiskeys and then a case of cheap beer #adam has one half drunken vodka cruiser thats been sitting in the back of the mini fridge for weeks #strahm learns about the apron and almost bites through his own fist

Something something Laurence being a foreigner something something him experiencing xenophobia something something him learnig how efficient the oppression he faced is as a tool for keeping the masses calm and distracting them

#have no thoughts just vibes yknow #after learning that og laurence was supposed to be the best friend's mc who too came to yharnam the idea of foreigner laurence #lives in my head rent free #ig that i could also do something with this and bradors employment?? #like. i do think that brador (canonically a foreigner) too knew how much powerful as a tool xenophobia is #like his whole character screams that hes well enough aware to think that #and the fact that he willingly collaborated with the extremely xenophobic healing church is. interesting? #and ig that according to this hc laurence's influence might have something to do with this #idk thats just some rambling. my brain is pretty fried atm #bloodborne #laurence the first vicar #adding this tag a day later but also like.. hes one of the few characters with a definitely english sounding name and #most characters with those names are foreigner

[heathcliffgirl1847]

Woe! Sequencers be upon ye! Could I request J2 for the terrible throuple (❤️- Vincent 💛- Laurence 💙- Isobel) for the polycule meme if you’re still taking these? Hope you have a good day boss o7

Design notes - Laurence the First Vicar

Mandatory youthful resting bitch face and same stupid haircut he keeps all his life. Short of height, around 168cm / 5'6"

Choir work uniform: no blindfold or cape to ensure flexibility of movement, basically a suit ensemble with a distinctive jewel & ribbon + long gloves.

Full Choir uniform: more ceremonial, when he performs his duty as head of the Research Hall. He'd wear even more layers for ritualistic occasions such as mass, like robes under the white garb and a holy shawl at the back, but I am much too lazy to make myself suffer through that

#bloodborne #laurence the first vicar #my art #my doodles #character design #this went better than expected for a one hour doodle so i might make more stuff like this #expect me to play dress up with micolash i guess

[a-pepper-honey]

do you guys think after the war Laurence paid for a miniature portrait of Temeraire that he keeps in a locket?

like i was thinking of this dragon in VoE who keeps a portrait of his captain. a) i believe every dragon should own this* and b) i do not believe it should only be a dragon thing

*headcanon: Immortalis & Iskierka do. Little & Granby painted portraits of each other and gave them to their dragons

#like those sailors who brought portraits of their beloved to sea #maybe even tem on one side and tharkay on the other #temeraire #william laurence #tem #augustine little #john granby #immortalis #iskierka
