hating on female characters who get in the way of our m/m ships is out. hating on male characters who get in the way of our f/f ships is in. Jonathan Byers square up

SO fucking weird to me that robin and Steve aren’t living together. Steve can coach anywhere!!! He would follow his bestie!! Let them be stupid flatmates!!

[delusional-lesbianism]

the fact that ST literally did what bugs me the most in Steve-centric fanfics......

whyyyy are you separating Robin and Steve 😭😭😭 they are a package deal.... wherever she goes, he goes and vice versa..... who's gonna manage the braincell they bounce between the two of them when they're so far away from each other :[[[[

Please don’t give up on Butch Robin and Femme Nancy after that epilogue.

trust and believe i know ronance better than the duffer brothers. they gave us 90s power femme nancy (yay!), but cruelly ripped away all of robin’s swag. it’s okay, though. i will continue to spread the truth of butch robin.

ok guys breaking my silence on the matter some of u guys calling nancy butch/masc in the epilogue is giving this

[delusional-lesbianism]

they stripped Robin of her swag...... 😞😞

hm. my thing about the jancy break up is that it was coming from a mile away. Even when they got together it was clear that their end goals were *very* different and they wanted different things in relationships. I think I would have been a bit disappointed if they stayed together, nevermind if they actually got engaged.

Yes, they both have the shared trauma and did at one point find comfort in one another but that's not all that it takes to build a relationship, to keep a relationship.

And let me make this clear I am notttt a stancy shipper either. It's the same thing for stancy. If Steve "won" the love triangle I wouldn't have liked it either. You mean to tell me that relationship would last when Nancy has resisted the typical nuclear family for almost this entire series only for her to end up with Steve "I want six kids" Harrington? hard pass.

Despite the.... everything. I'm glad that Nancy ended up single.

Rovickie fans on tiktok saying we hate rovickie just bc it gets in the way of ronance... Maybe I'm overreacting but I feel like that's actually problematic because we have valid complains over the ship, as the target audience for it. They're once again proving they'll take anything thrown at them just because it's sapphic and are making us the villains and silencing our genuine concern over a ship that we have every right to criticize as sapphics ourselves... I'm genuinely so pissed off rn

never doubt the power of yuri. ronance will be canon.

[delusional-lesbianism]

if the people speculating that Robin dying are right i WILL make this about misogyny and lesbophobia. idc.

[incorrectronance]

Nancy: Are you nervous?

Robin: Yeah

Nancy: Is this your first time?

Robin: No, I've been nervous before

[archaicfauna]

My favorite flavor of (whoever) x Robin fics are when it’s like:

The girl: I… really like you… you drive me crazy… I want to be yours… I just have to have you… etc etc

And then Robin’s just over there like:

"The reunion"

Wednesday kept her promise with Enid and came to pick her up in the North (after 4 months)

[prefer-to-be-vilified]

Agnes: I didn’t try to kill her because she was gay. I tried to kill her… and then… she happened to turn out to be gay afterwards…

Enid: I WAS GAY WHEN YOU TRIED TO KILL ME!!!

[tone-mariie]

okay yapfest about why i hate rovickie

if robin ends up with vickie i WILL lose it. i’m cool with ronance or whatever other ship but rovickie felt so forced in season 4. i’m a lesbian so obviously i watch a lot of lesbian media and the whole thing feels too cliche and like “we aren’t 100% sure how to write this so let’s just copy everything else”. and i know, “oh but vickie only got like 10 minutes of screentime!” maybe, but that 10 minutes said a LOT about the direction her and robin’s relationship would be going in.

1. vickie is basically a carbon copy of robin. you can say she isn’t but it’s right the freak in front of you. they even look similar. they both have the same mannerisms, they both are in band, they both are a bit awkward, they have the same habit of talking a lot; the way that vickie talks about her boyfriend at the end of season 4 to robin is soooo straight out of robin’s playbook of speaking. it’s SO robin. vickie is EXACTLY like robin. i’ve noticed this tends to be a pattern in queer media, especially with lesbians, there tends to be less lesbian rep than gay men, and typically when there IS lesbian rep it feels pretty close to this, with copies of each other.

2. their relationship is SOOOOOO CLICHE I CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH OH MY GOD. that whole “girl who’s aware of her sexuality” x “girl who’s closeted/doesnt know with a boyfriend”. it’s sooo cliche. and ykw fine, i know a lot of stranger things is built off cliches, but this goes back to it feeling like the forced lesbian representation i formerly said. “we can’t think of anything else.” the way rovickie feels to me is that it’s every lesbian movie/show stereotype forced into their 10 minutes of screentime.

but hey maybe i’m crashing out over nothing!

from what i’ve heard, robin is confirmed to have a girlfriend in season 5, wether introduced right off the bat as her girlfriend or another romance throughout the show (which would make more sense to me considering the length of the episode, there’s no need for it to be rushed.) now obviously it COULD be vickie, but i somehow highly doubt it. i have absolutely zero evidence except the voices in my head for this one i just have a feeling
