Propaganda:

For Joongdok: "Well first of all Yoo Joonghyuk has a whole arc that is transfem coded as hell (has a power/technique that can technically only be used by women but somehow he can also use it, for a time he even turns into a woman to wield it and it's. Actually just let me get the quote "The ines of the face had changed but it was clearly Yoo Joonghyuk. No, it was even more than before.") that just kinda happens,, and doesn't get brought up again but anyway. Second of all just look at them. You see the vision. Also a bonus observation is that these two often get shipped in a poly ship with Han Sooyoung and whenever I see people make a "regular couple, yaoi couple, yuri couple, I see no difference love is love" meme with them the combination of which pair among these three is which of the categories is always different"

Note: This submission also mentions Han Sooyoung, but I decided to count this polyship submission as guy yuri as well.

"They love each other, they pretend they don't care for each other but all their actions prove they care too much, if you remove someone from the trio then the resulting duo is extremely dysfunctional, as evidenced by more than a million words of canon. Is it technically guy yuri? Well, Han Sooyoung is a woman, but in a way she's one of the guys. Kim Dokja and Yoo Joonghyuk are men, but the text heavily hints that Yoo Joonghyuk is a trans woman who's just too busy and stressed out to transition yet, and Kim Dokja has just never thought about his own gender a single day in his life. They made the world for each other, they went back in time countless times and waged countless wars for each other, they wrote and read and lived a story, their story, for each other and that's what saved them all. The way Han Sooyoung writes Yoo Joonghyuk's story to save Kim Dokja and loses herself in the process, the way Yoo Joonghyuk voluntarily lives the story to the point of losing himself too and even forgetting why he originally decided to do it, the way Kim Dokja read Han Sooyoung's story which was Yoo Joonghyuk's life and that's how he found himself, they all took so much from each other and gave so much of themselves to each other, this is all very yuri."

"they're so yuri you have no idea. they have every staple of a yuri ship. unwavering devotion. waiting dozens or thousands of years for each other. dooming themselves and the world for each other. so much yearning. i also see them genderbent a lot (including inn canon in the case of yjh) and they're right both of these people are women. i genuinely can't even see them strictly as men at this point they're just yjh and kdj and they are yuri do you understand."

"they're so yuri. the abscense of yuri is the presence of yuri etc etc. these two guys are all ABOUT abscenses. also one of them is a part time woman. the other guy is a guy but like in the same way a square is a rectangle. anyway they're so guyyuri to me. bonus points also because they have a mutual girlfriend and when she's present they're girlyaoi but that's not relevant to this specifically"

For Destiel: "There’s got something wrong with her(complementary)"

#guy yuri round 1 #joongdok #destiel #kim dokja #yoo joonghyuk #dean winchester #castiel #omniscient reader's viewpoint #orv #supernatural #(from my admittedly limited knowledge of ORV these don't seem to be that different) #(not sure if superhell is involved but they are apparently very doomed by the narrative) #btw thanks to the person who submitted this pic of Joongdok the vibes are excellent #and i dont even go there yet #guy yuri poll

[scintillyyy]

honestly, though. sometimes when the drakes are discussed it does seem a little "oh, they never would never do <insert terrible fanon trait here>, they just <insert a different trait they....also never really did and is actually kind of contradicted by canon? here>"

#honestly i'm usually fairly forgiving about the second because i'm sure i'm guilty of it too lmao #and it's also like. that's usually more of personal intepretation/reading thing which should have different viewpoints #variety is the spice of life and all #& i like defending the drakes AND talking about how they failed #but sometimes the thing that is confidently stated they do instead is something canon directly contradicts. #they never would force feed him something he's allergic to #they would just have super strict expectations of his behavior & not be affectionate #meanwhile the expectations are limited to don't wear a t-shirt to a wedding rehearsal and jack is shown hugging tim like every 5 issues #(and janet is dead and can have no expectations but the only time we see her she's like “you can be whatever you want to be sweetie :)”) #and they are shown having a very iconic outing with him and they treat him nice & want him to have a good time & are very loving #i too want to swing the pendulum the other way but that second one does apply to both good and bad traits lmao #“jack was just trying to get close to his son” well. no he really wasn't. #or “jack never cared about his son & never tried to listen to him” well that's not exactly true either #god i love them. my polarizing flawed family.

Lmaorofl Kim Dokja

"That wasn't my world." I looked at the empty space. "My world is here."

Yoo Joonghyuk was silent for a long time. I licked my lips and laughed. "This place has my incarnation Yoosung, my colleague Yoo Sangah, Han Sooyoung who hasn't blackened yet, my mother…"

"Don't feel joyful. It isn't over yet."

- Kim Dokja just called Yoo Joonghyuk his world then got self-conscious when Yoo Joonghyuk was silent for a long time and started talking about other people

Once we came to our senses, we were lying on the floor like we had made a promise. It was because Yoo Joonghyuk and I had reached our limits.

-What promise, Kim Dokja???

#er kim dokja #looking at the empty space for what #hoping yoo joonghyuk would move closer to you? #this guy seriously #i mean he even mentioned his mother what #what promise??? #wtf does you and yoo joonhyuk reaching your limits have to do with a promise??? #kim dokja is so full of nonsense i swear #i swear this guy has jerked off to yoo joonghyuk before but he didn't need to pretend he didn't he just made up some nonsensical sense #in his mind that made sense to him and became satisfied and moved on #can't believe this is canon lol #kim dokja #yoo joonghyuk #dokjoong #joongdok #dokhyuk #orv #omniscient reader's viewpoint

[everyyoojoonghyuk]

Going through the climax of the arc that made me fall in love with ORV is something special, so of course, I had to write a small meta. Keeping everything vague so that there are no novel spoilers <3

When Dokja revives, everyone (who can stand) immediately flocks to him. They surround him with worried looks and outstretched arms. Even Joonghyuk is holding on still. They're all focused on him, he's obviously the center with how the lighting is, but it means more. He cares about something that they don't.

And that's future Shin Yoosung. None of them have a reason to care about the woman that's been trying to kill them. And Yoo Joonghyuk has no knowledge of the 41st turn yet, so he doesn't either. But Dokja does. He knows her suffering, her story.

He knows that the smartest and easiest thing to do right now would be to kill her, but...

He loves her. And no, not in a way that he loves Joonghyuk (im sorry I had to), but the way that he loves all of the story. He loves that story that saved him and kept him afloat all these years along with every character in it. Especially such a tragic one like Shin Yoosung. He even felt her grief and anger first hand a few minutes ago when he shared her body. As the story continues, we see this again and again - Dokja's bleeding heart.

He can't abandon her, he won't. He refuses. And SYS is rightfully confused. Who is this man that she just learned of? Who she just killed and is now refusing to seek revenge. Who makes her heart ache even though she doesn't know why

This is why. She was able to feel all the love poured into and out of current SYS thanks to the memories that they briefly shared. The effect is amplified due to their sponsor & incarnation relationship. It aches because she was unable to feel that love from the one she wanted to the most in the 41st regression

And she's angry still. It's just another reminder that it was something she never had, and now the people she loved are the same but different. They aren't hers

Then she realizes that there is indeed someone who can relate. And you can see on his face that he doesn't blame her. He gets it, more than anyone. Even though she just killed Kim Dokja, his precious companion, right in front of him, he isn't angry. Dokja is fine, and SYS was also one of his precious companions, so he is happy to lend leniency

#part 2 shortly! the image limit caught up to me #this is only partly meta - more observation #idc tho i like disecting it since its such a precious arc for me #not every yjh #orv #omniscient readers viewpoint #yoo joonghyuk #shin yoosung #kim dokja #orv meta

i’ve typed and re-typed this paragraph in my head several times but. just. i am at a complete loss with how i should say anything. your writing is compelling and genuinely cried (when i thought i’d never relearn crying again). on a slightly more articulate note - i love your sylvain. so principled to the end. kudos in the truest sense of the word.

Thank you so much this is so extremely sweet!! ;-; The story really hit at some personal topics for me too...everything I write does, but in a few chapters it'll be most obvious.

Having feelings really is the worst thing in the world. I'm the type of person who's tried many times in in the past to carve out my heart. You have to be a little jealous of Byleth - of her own little world where nothing hurts, where sadness and pain and loneliness cannot penetrate. She can't love, but she can't feel the pain of a broken heart. There's far more pain than joy in the world, so it really seems like she has the better end of the deal. But I think the only way to survive is to be saved, and you have to save others before you can be saved yourself. And in order to save others you have to live in everybody else's world too, where pain and heartbreak is inevitable. It's like forcing yourself to place a hand on a hot stove, and to do it again and again no matter how often it hurts, but doing otherwise means you aren't living at all. You're not saving yourself or anybody else. We only have one life, and I'd rather live it.

Byleth's a fictional character. She can live 20 years without emotions, but we can't. Any attempt to carve out your heart will ultimately be unsuccessful, because we'll always reach back out to touch that stove again. So long as there's a billion assholes out there like me making very small and stupid little attempts to save people, I think we can't lose the ability to cry - I mean, you reached back, didn't you?

UM I HAVE A LOT TO SAY ABOUT SYLAIN BUT THIS POST IS ALREADY STUPID...I don't make it obvious but Sylvain is low-key my favorite character, up there with Felix. Like Felix, he does bad things for self-centered reasons. All I'll say right here is that Sylvain is the only one of the childhood friends who fully understands that Dimitri is a prince, and that as a big brother figure he is caught in a bad crossroads of protecting Dimitri and protecting others from Dimitri. Thanks for reading!!

#im not talking jesus saves im talking bodhisattva saving. btw. #sorry im watching in stars and time and it's making me MAD philosophical lmfaoooo #taps microphone play the world ends with you and read omniscent reader's viewpoint uhhh that's all #also be an extravert who loves people but whose Been Through It #my asks #my writing #theres a lot of reasons why sylvain is the favorite that i won't go into #but he actually fully understands how the world works and he is the only fucking one #(his biggest limitation is being a guy i think. dorothea voice.) #(also being rich. yuri voice.) #and he's an extremely kind and loving person who is also so so so bitter #im looking forward to posting the cat byleth story cuz a lot of the emotional heart is about sylvain and his son #legend of korra had it right. sometimes your blorbos are shitty fucking parents.

major novel spoilers for the war between saints and demons below

Something about Heewon’s (huiwon but im more familiar with fan translation spelling so) transformation into the judge of the apocalypse hits a very emotional note for me. Of course it comes at a moment of desperation, hyunsung is dead (presumably), she’s alone against demon lords she can’t possibly hope to defeat, and everything the company has been working to is amounting to nothing in the wake of their enemies collaborating against them. But the way the Heewon looks at the constellations of good denying her request for hour of judgement against enemies of absolute evil, trying again and again even as they turn her backs on her with each attempt, and her entire soul goes “no, i refuse to accept this.” Heewon has always been a person who had seen some of the worst sides of people and blossomed her ability to fight those kinds of scumbags, both for vengeance and because that’s just the person she is, helping out everyone she can. That Heewon looks at the betrayal, the absolute breakdown of justice, and says “If the system of absolute good is going to betray me, then I don’t need it to declare if my judgement is valid.” Her stigma evolving into one that needs nothing more than the approval of her companions for her to exercise judgement on her enemies, its such a beautiful continuation of the story of kim dokja’s company vs the world. And if the entire world needs to face her judgement in order for her companions to be safe, then on god Heewon is going to do it.

“...Kim Dokja’s mother?” “You are the only one who still calls me that.” Lee Sookyung wiped Han Sooyoung’s back and forehead with a towel. Han Sooyoung asked, “Why didn’t you go to the Demon World?” “What type of face would I have to go there?” “Kim Dokja would’ve liked it.” “He would’ve liked it more if you went.” “...You don’t know your son very well.” Han Sooyoung stuck out her small lips. Lee Sookyung laughed lightly and replaced the wet pillow with a new one.

Trigun makes my brain go so crazy that I have, genuinely, been entertaining the thought of writing literature-degree-type essays on it for fun. Like cracking open books, going back into lit theory, references and everything. Just because I enjoy thinking about it and talking about it that much. Oh god
