#platonic purposal

[poorly-drawn-mdzs]

There is a platonic explanation for all this. Right?

[First] Prev <–-> Next

#poorly drawn mdzs #mdzs #wei wuxian #lan wangji #[accidental kiss] is a purposeful misspelling to reference an old meme. I will blast anyone who tries to correct me with the crunchiest png #The kiss looks like wwx is biting lwj's cheek....It *does* have the consistency of a soft marshmallow so he's not in the wrong. #Once again: wwx was never *ever* oblivious to the implications of the situation. On the contrary: this entire scene + the prior shows- #that he very much understands that this looks gay to the viewers. #He just doesn't think its possible to be loved like that. *Especially not by Lan Zhan.* #Do people forget that LWJ had 13 years to process his feelings VS WWX's (give or take) week? #This is the moment he realizes wwx has feelings and he HATES HIMSELF FOR IT. He feels like he's betraying lwj's trust! #The demi feeling of having spent so long in a comfortable platonic relationship and then getting struck by the 'oh shit' moment. #Its not a soft 'Oh' - Its a 'Oh god they are going to hate me and I can't bear that. I need to be so normal about this or else'. #Pour one out for all of us who've had to go through the trials of trying to conceal the painful realization of deeper affections. #Anyway. *both* lwj and wwx fall in love kicking and screaming and miserable and clawing at the walls about it. #Continuity acknowledgement: wwx's hands are unbound at this point but I had a hellish time with blocking and this was a bit easier.

One of my favorite silly things is that during the Hermitcraft/Empires crossover, when Tango and Jimmy reunite and they're in that frozen heartbeat before they start screaming and running in circles around each other, Tango [creator] made the intentional choice to cover his screen in dozens of pink hearts and play sweet music and then... he really went on a stream and bemoaned that he "could have done more."

Sir???? You stopped dead in the middle of a conversation and stared at Jimmy with hearts obscuring your vision, then screamed unintelligible nonsense and ran circles around him, I think we got the message.

Tango really out here like "My special little guy really really REALLY missed his soulmate and I need EVERYONE to know" slkdjf Love him for playing up the bit

saw that new article that was like "hacks is the greatest romcom on tv but in a totally platonic way because deborah makes fun of ava's hands being big all the time and would clearly never be dtf" and i was like "we are watching this show very differently"

#haven't you ever heard of NEGGING????? #do you remember the scene where she taunted ava by paying attention to another young comedienne's HANDS????? #dollsome's deep thoughts #hacks #anyway. i'm coming to understand that i'll never get what people mean when they draw strict romantic vs. platonic boundaries in fiction #i feel like the fun of hacks is that there's a genuine frisson of attraction in there frothing away with the 9 million other things #going on between deborah and ava in any given split second #that might not be the central thing that draws them to each other or a priority for either of them #but i think it's definitely there on purpose #ava x deborah

(SWAP AU) Al threw him off of him 10 seconds after this

I think a recurring joke in the AU would be other people assuming Angel and Al are dating or something and they'd deny it (Alastor especially) but then turn around and do something that absolutely does not help their case

(Angel isn't famous in this AU so sometimes people think "Angel" might be a pet name (he uses Angel and Anthony interchangeably) and well, Angel is Angel)

Their Deal is bound by promise, and neither has broken them yet

Would there be consequence if it was broken? No one knows. Alastor didn't really specify, or maybe Angel didn't catch it.

Anthony has zero clue, but for obvious reasons he'd rather not risk it.

nemona feels like an obscure blorbo instead of the main rival character from the latest pokemon game because to get to her really good content from people who really get it, you first have to wade through the ocean of yandere pervert obsessive stalker annoying punchable bimbo amazon goddess interpretations of...

... a neurodivergent and possibly disabled high schooler who's desperately trying to make any friends or get any support from her rich neglectful family - while everyone in her school is jealous of their own imagined version of a privileged asshole version of her they made up - who deeply and platonically loves and supports the one new kid who agreed to take the time to get to know and respect her and her special interest without having to hold back her true self

unlike her, it's not great!

kinda feels like she has the same problem in our world that she does in hers.

#(except much hornier) #i hate to say it but i think her skin color has something to do with it #nemona pokemon #nemona #pokemon sv #pokemon scarvio #pokemon scarlet and violet #pokemon #nemonaposting #dog girl and goku memes are fine i guess #i legitimately cannot google her without a video of someone being cruel to her on purpose and making her visibly sad coming up #i don't think people like that really browse these tags but i hope they're not the reason she was not in the dlc footage at all #and thus may never get more screen time to actually be her best friend's 'rival for life' as promised before the 3 year cycle marches on #you know the dlc about nemona's best friend and 'greatest treasure' transferring to a school about the hardcore battles she's dying without #potentially abandoning her and sending her back to almost square one on having a reason to enjoy life #don't get me started yelling about that again #also i didn't mean platonically in a don't ship them kind of way you should absolutely do that if it lines up with your interpretations #i usually do in fact #just trying to emphasize the contrast between canon and fanart here #opinions of her already start off so low faith just because she's from the 10 fps pokemon game and i'll be real i wish she wasn't #i wish she and her friends were somewhere i could trust that they would be treated respectfully by their copyright holders

hate when people refer to sex as "the bedroom." also hate how "slept/sleeping together" is a way to say "had/having sex together." why do you hate romance. why do you hate platonic. why must everything be about sex. did you really have to use platonic/romantic/nuetral terms and make them about sex. can't you just use sexual terms for sexual things.

#the bedroom is for BED. you can do other things in a bedroom but the main purpose of bedroom is Not Sex!! #i love the bedroom. i want to sleep together. no i am not talking about sex how else am i supposed to word it #you can word sex other ways but you can't word those any more literally #i don't want people to assume sex!! #i want there to be things not implying/all about sex!!!! #unityrain.txt #i'm not even ace (well i guess i'm ace spec. but.) but i think they would enjoy this post #ace #asexual #sex repulsed #romance #platonic

At some point Kazuki is going to vent to a mom from daycare about how hard parenting is and how he wished Rei helped more around the house and the woman is going to nod understandingly and ask Kazuki how long he and Rei have been married and Kazuki is going to give her a puzzled look and say "married? we're not even dating??", and that woman is going to laugh because haha turns out that Kazuki the failed stand-up comedian does have some good jokes after all.

#kazuki doesn't understand why she finds it funny #also for narrative purposes same-sex marriage is legal in japan in this anime #that being said platonic relationships are important and valid!! #you can absolutely raise a child with someone you are not dating have never dated or don't intend to date #buddy daddies #kazuki kurusu #suwa rei #nym's posts

The way Carmy starts avoiding and distancing himself from Sydney after he starts going out with Claire. Like you can't make this shit up??

#like why would you purposely avoid someone who you would consider a friend after you start dating someone #THERE IS NO PLATONIC EXPLAINATION FOR THIS #i mean you could argue that this was because he was avoiding the restaurant #but i dont think this was the case because his relationship with natalie richie fak etc seemed fine?? #sydcarmy

The idea of Bhaal betting on Durge eventually breaking down (from religious indoctrination, trauma bond, loss of purpose/ambition, whatever) and then they'll be ready to become his pawn again just to get some semblance of that back (and then he can punish them for their rebellion and failure).

But then Bane canonically taking an interest in the protagonist, whether they chose to control the brain or not, and also apparently having had an interest in Durge's ambition/cruelty pre-amnesia and calling dibs...

This could go hilariously.

Bane: “So you want ambition, power, dark purpose, and an unhealthy attachment to terrible authority figures do you?”

Bhaal: "You can't call dibs on my ex-Chosen, Bane!"

Bane, who never responds well to being told what to do: “Dibs.” :)

Sooo.... do you prefer the Goth and Lover-Of-Life-And-Finer-Things-In-It Dynamic where the Goth ditches their Life-Loving BF(F) in overly dramatic fashion....

...ooor the Goth and Lover-Of-Life-And-Finer-Things-In-It Dynamic  where the Lover-Of-Life-And-Finer-Things-In-It ditches and ghosts the Goth in overly dramatic fashion (possibly sending the Goth into a self-destructive spiral involving a lot of drinking and a mental breakdown)?

I went “I’m not into this but let’s hear them out” on one too many omegaverse fics and now I have thoughts and opinions and headcanons and shit. Horrifying. Please be careful it could happen to you

#Mads was right when she said omegaverse should be a psychological horror genre #platonic omegaverse is only slightly less horrifying than the romantic/sexual stuff #99% of the time when people are like ‘it’s for deconstructing sexism’ or whatever they’re lying it’s for weird wolf sex. However the tropes #that appear in platonic omegaverse fics are fascinatingly revealing in terms of people’s views on the nuclear family. Like idk how to #explain it I just know that the ‘family abolition’ people would have a field day with it. Horrifying implications it terms of familial abus #that go mostly unexplored. Most of the platonic stuff is just for fluff. I have seen it used effectively for horror one time #Omegaverse #<- for blacklist purposes

Okay, as we know, i don't believe in bigot Max. I don't think it's real.

Buuuut, a Freaky Friday fic in which Richie is trans and Max not only has to deal with being in a nerds body, but being in the wrong body. For the first time, he understands why everything transphobic Max says to Richie gets to him— he realises it's not just another weakness to point out, it is directly attacking a person for something they can't control.

Max is so thankful to get his body back in the end, but he can't help but feel bad for Richie. He'd cried upon seeing he was in Max's body, and Max could swear he'd seen him choke a few times just looking down at himself. Richie had a few days in a body closer to his own and now he had to go back to dystopia.

(Max may of may not try to raise money for Richie’s transition, whose to say)

#can be romantic or platonic actually #i kind of like the idea of them switching back into platonicacy #and then the next day when theyre switched back max gives him a noogie and richie's all goofy (flustered) #but it getting romantic over time #like 'max' is bullying 'richie' for apparences sake #and he definitely doesnt buy richie a strap on when they start dating because that would be weird #nerdy prudes must die #richie lipschitz #max jagerman #michie #i wrote dystopia on purpose. i know its called dysphoria but 1) feels like dystopia 2) Max would probably call it dystopia by mistake #starkid
