while I'm not really the biggest fan of Stobotnik or Staregg/Eggline compared to most other pairings I have with Eggman, one good thing about the popularity of both in recent years is that people actually finally think to pair Eggman with men. because gay stuff with him used to be so goddamn rare, especially non satirical stuff as I used to have to settle for that sometimes back in the day XD

#wish more was with classic/modern design than jimbotnik/Boom for personal preference #but hey it's just nice that him as any version at all has more gay stuff now #I feel there were 3 reasons why it wasn't common before #1. cus of other non game canon media pairings (but none were good lol) #2. cus Eggman wasn't as popular in general hardly anyone found him hot so they didn't think him shippable at all #and 3. cus he's masculine and people in fandom forget masculine men can be gay for some reason #and only hc if they can make it fit stereotypes :P #I'm glad those days are over mostly- it's a lot rarer for these to apply now #dr eggman #eggman #dr robotnik #dr. eggman #pride #relationships #my post

It’s always very weird to me how much hate IDW OP gets in comparison to characters that are as bad or worse. Like, if hate for IDW OP was just “he’s an asshole and does xyz things,” I would get that, but the vast majority of the hate I see for him is just calling him an asshole with no particular explanation as to why. More puzzlingly, I see “IDW OP is an asshole” coming from the mouths of people who simultaneously stan characters like Pr/owl (also a cop, committed war crimes, constantly manipulates and uses people) and Mega/tron (genocidal dictator, racist against organics, generally violent and fucked up) so like???

It doesn’t seem like the problem is that IDW OP is an asshole, it seems to me like the problem is very specifically that it’s Optimus. For some reason people are just absolutely allergic to the idea of Optimus being morally gray to match a morally gray continuity. Somehow Optimus and Optimus alone is a horrible asshole who doesn’t ever deserve to be acknowledged even though the same people have no problems liking characters from the same comics who are as bad or worse? And it’s quite disappointing because it seems like in that case, it’s less about IDW OP being an asshole and more about the fact that people haven’t actually read the story and don’t care about the context/reasoning for IDW OP’s actions.

That or they just want every Optimus to be a happy silly dad or a depressed uwu dad (but only depressed in a cute and palatable way, never depressed in a way that leads to lashing out and bad decisions and social isolation), so they hate IDW OP for not being the cardboard cutout they want him to be. Instead of just... reading the OP that’s on the page and judging him based on the standards of IDW1 and the type of story IDW1 is.

#squiggposting #like deadass i'm not fucking kidding #if i had a dollar for every time i saw a pr/wl or a m/gatron fan shit on idw op i would be fucking rich #like brother you're perfectly okay with war crimes and genocide and being a cop when it's THEM #(i suspect it's because of shipping and general whitewashing of those characters tho) #(and because idw op isn't easily shippable or able to be washed down people just fucking hate him) #(also because no one reads anything besides mt/mte or l/l) #but yeah it's so fucking weird for me to see people like 'I HATE IDW OP BECAUSE HE'S A COP' #*stans pr/owl* #or 'IDW OP SUCKS BECAUSE HE ANNEXED EARTH' #*stans meg/at/ron who genocided and cyberformed MULTIPLE planets for purely colonialist and racist reasons* #honestly i don't think it has anything to do with comparing these characters #i think people just ignore/whitewash the awful parts of characters like pr/owl and meg/atron #and that's why things like this provoke no cognitive dissonance in them whatsoever #so in a way morally gray/evil characters like pr/owl and megs are actually erased just as much as idw op #it's just that pr/owl and me/ga/tron erasure consists of erasing their canon flaws and just making them uwu dolls to ship people with #and idw op erasure is just erasing his existence completely basically #that being said i think it's worse to have my favorite character just be completely erased and shit upon at every turn :/ #ppl shit on him even when the conversation doesn't have anything to do with idw #ppl shit on him when they get asks about their favorite characters #and it's almost always completely one sided bashing where it's just 'he's an asshole' and never naming a specific thing he actually did #and even if they did like. it's a fucking story made to talk about tough politics and morals and social issues #if you're reading something like idw1 just to find characters that are nice and unproblematic and completely relatable #that's just a really juvenile and embarrassing way to consume mature media #also half the criticisms of idw op i see literally can't even get basic plot points or thematic messaging right so honestly fuck em #me and my idw op loving friends are based and mfs who can't comprehend canon are cringe #discourse

#Tyto reads OHSHC #I don't know why I'm surprised that Tamaki keeps running with the 'Kyoya is the Club Mom' thing as much as he does #I always understood why this was popular as a ship but they are EVEN MORE SHIPPABLE in the manga somehow #also this arc has me in fucking stitches. the villain is a jock whose defining trait is that he eats oranges **PEEL AND ALL** #EDIT: hooooooly shit i made this post before i saw the next page and KYOYA!!!!! #That's SO UNCHARACTERISTICALLY SWEET OF HIM GOD HE REALLY LOVES TAMAKI HUH

a fun part of fne p2 is that i've had a situation come up thrice where i have to dodge any romantic/sexual tension in a scene between the pov character and others, and i'm coming to the conclusion that p2 mc is extremely shippable.

#abyss.txt #fne posting #never had this problem in p1! #even though i wrote quite a few scenes with that character and the boy he CANONICALLY HAS A CRUSH ON #it's #why is this specific character so shippable and why has it happened thrice

[fanby-fckry]

You know what, I’m just gonna say it. I think that Alastor being aroace is part of the reason he’s so shippable to me.

Before you come at me, check the flag in my pfp; I’m aroace-spec.

Maybe it’s me projecting, maybe it’s because I love exploring relationships through an aroace lens, but goddamn. I ship him more than any other character and every time I do, his aroaceness is a major component in the ship.

Examples below the cut because it’s gonna get long:

📻🍎 || RadioApple:

There are so many versions of this dynamic and I am here for all of them.

We have the pre-canon kinky QPR that I show in UH3. I could talk about that all day, but to summarize:

Aroace x genuinely respectful allo is a dynamic that heals my soul.

Lucifer is less tied down by human constructs like amatonormativity, having never been human himself.

The Devil values consent.

Kinky cannibalism, kinky cannibalism, kinky cannibalism, kinky ca- *I am removed from the stage with a comically large hook*

Then we have the Evil and fucked up QPR dynamic:

And of course, trying to get along for Charlie’s sake and eventually bonding over their shared love of dad jokes and musical theatre, both being violinists (yup, Alastor plays violin too, check the wiki) with niche hobbies/interests (ducks, furby organ) and accidentally winding up in a loving, healthy QPR.

📻🕸️ || RadioDust:

There’s something about an aroace and a sex worker who very rarely falls in love.

Angel would know that Alastor isn’t with him for sex, would know that he values Angel beyond his body.

With greyro Alastor, Angel and Alastor would both be inexperienced with romance, but in wildly different ways. Angel has never had a healthy romantic relationship and therefor tries not to fall in love. Greyro Alastor has probably experienced romantic attraction like less than three times in his 100+ years of existence.

And if Alastor never gains romantic attraction for Angel, that’s a whole other level to the dynamic.

It’s got some great angst potential with Angel wondering if he’s not good enough to love romantically or Alastor feeling guilty or confused as to Why It Hasn’t Happened Yet when he cares for Angel so deeply, and eventually it gets resolved with the two of them accepting that their attractions don’t have to match up for them to love/appreciate/care for each other and they smash the amatonormative relationship hierarchy as queer platonic partners.

Or, Angel’s just totally cool with it from the start because he’s spent decades in the kink scene and has potentially been exposed to more relationship anarchy than Alastor.

Kink and queerness have a great deal of historical and cultural overlap, and that includes aroace queerness. Because Angel’s had way more canon exposure to both, it’s possible he knows more about Alastor’s orientation than Alastor does, and I love the idea of Angel introducing him to terms or just being super chill about not labeling things.

📻♥️ || RadioHusk:

Drawing like 90% from pilot dynamic and headcanon on this. They’re just two old men. They get drunk and cuddle. Alastor is one of the few people who knows Husk can purr and takes advantage of this fact. Alastor considers Husk a friend in a fucked up, possessive way. Husk considers Alastor a pain in the ass, but does care about him on some level.

It’s Fucked Up and Evil QPR: Remix Edition.

And the versions where the author puts them through fanfic couple’s therapy and actually gets them into a healthy point in their relationship? One where Alastor no longer owns Husk’s Soul? *chef’s kiss*

📻🌹 || RadioRose:

For me, personally, this is an exclusively nonsexual, non-romantic ship. They’re besties; they’re QPPs. They’re married for the tax benefits and so that they cannot be forced to testify against each other in court.

Rosie knew Alastor was aroace before he did and rather than sit down and explain it to him, she decided to make ace puns.

📻💋 || RadioSiren: [edit, context here] RadioFemme

Ok, so this is entirely based on non-canon-compliant Lilith. Or, I guess, non-series-compliant Lilith. More of the old WOG stuff from the pilot era, with a healthy dose of headcanon for flavor.

I love the idea of Lilith and Lucifer having an open marriage; I love the UH3 style polycule dynamic.

Lilith being the original seductress and Alastor being aesthetically but not sexually or romantically attracted to her is very near and dear to my heart.

I’m an aroace with a voice kink who is aesthetically attracted to Lilith and I think Alastor is an aroace with a voice kink who would be aesthetically attracted to Lilith, ok?

📻📺 || RadioStatic:

I’m gonna be real with you, 90% of my interest in RadioStatic is in the one-sided version where Vox is a pathetic little incel simp and Alastor is either oblivious, mildly annoyed, or finds the whole thing hilarious.

Whenever there’s any reciprocation on Alastor’s part, I always imagine it being in a very aroace, very Alastor-esque way. He needs to be get something out of it completely unrelated to sex/romance. And he needs to be manipulative and sadistic in the process.

Whether that something is kink-related, a business transaction, or simply the quality entertainment provided by Vox being a cringefail TV-headed little bitch, I love to see it.
