Is it bad to say that I’ve been putting off the Spoke video but as soon as I saw Flame uploaded I didn’t even hesitate 💀 Favouritism at it’s best.
But this episode actually proved what I’ve been thinking about Flame for ages, which is that he’s just really kind. He’s friends with Law, he keeps protecting people from his fight with God of War, he never turned him down either.
And he literally asked God of War to train him after winning their fight. THATS MY POV WOOOOOOOOO I TOLD YALL HES THE KINDEST PROTAGONIST YOU JUST HAD TO LET HIM LEARN KINDNESS FIRST!!!!!
I also love how Flame is much more emotive, even in just stupid scenes like his reaction to Spongs having his own room. Everyone say “Thank you Spoke for locking in so hard you forced the other three to also lock in.”
The fact that Wemmbu and Flame are making so many friends as soon as they are calmer and away from their best friend is peak. But the fact that Flame is literally friends with all of Law now is crazy, remember that Lettuces first target was Flamefrags (Lawdog AU might’ve led people into forgetting how much Lettuce and Flame interacted)
Now all y’all making Flame aggressive cant anymore HAHA!!! You have no excuse, he was too scared to let his heart open again after the Mafia, but Lomedy help heal that wound and now we get to actually see Flamefrags, not the Immortal Demon.
Also, Lomedy getting his own room was a showing for all the dunderheads who saw the scene where Lomedy went his own way and saw that as Torchflower breaking up, gang no.
Every new Flame video humbles all the people who don’t understand his character, it’s so great. Well, if those people could actually pay attention it would.
I think for people to actually understand why I’m making such a big deal about Flame getting misunderstood, I have to do the swap thing. Just like the “If the genders were swapped, then it would be called out.” I’m doing the “If Wemmbu and Flame were swapped, people would get mad at Flame for using OSC on Wemmbu and call him a cheater who isn’t strong at all.”
Every time I talk about Flame, I fear this topic will always appear, because unfortunately that’s just how the internet works. He’s always going to be mistreated by the fandom no matter who’s story he had. I bet that if he had Parrot’s story, people would actually notice how fake that character is about his kindness, but only if it was Flame. Funny how that works.
