how artists draw the tweels (NO INCEST GROSSS) x Azul
i dont like the idea of the tweels sharing azul thats just a no for me so i dont ship it
i like them when theyāre jade x azul or floyd x azul but not a V shaped poly sorry guys it seems cute in theory i guess (IM NOT AGAINST POLYS THOUGH DO WHATEVER YOU WANT LMAO I JUST DONT PREFER IT)
but i swear these idoazu (IS THIS THE RIGHT TERM??) artists draw the tweels so fucking alpha male protective over azul like that mf cant kill people himself
ITS SO DUMB
why do these azul ship artists draw azul into so not azul and turn him into a weak little bitch like all that hardwork went into nothing
āwhy dont you let people have fun-ā
dont you dare touch my girl. otherwise iāll kill you šæšæšæ
I just dont like it when people make azul into this āalways weak crybaby that needs help protecting bc heās sucks at itā
HE LITERALLY EXPRESSED THAT IN BOOK 6 WAS NOBODY PAYING ATTENTION?? WAS IT ONLY ME AND MY OBSESSION WITH AZUL HELLO???? WAS I THE ONLY ONE WHO READ IT??
HE LITERALLY SAID THAT HE DIDNāT NEED PROTECTION FROM RIDDLE AND HE COULD FEND FOR HIMSELF
I JUST DONāT LIKE IT AND IT IMPLIES THAT JADE AND FLOYD THINK AZUL IS WEAK WHEN THEY KNOW AZUL ISNāT WEAK THATāS WHY THEY HANG OUT WITH HIM
I KNOW DAMN WELL HE WOULD PICK YOU UP AND THROW YOU INTO THREE DIFFERENT BUILDINGS YOU WILL NOT SURVIVE. HE WOULD āACCIDENTLYā SNATCH UR MAGIC AWAY.
HE LITERALLY HATES BEING UNDERESTIMATED GRRRR... GRRRRRRRR *I GROWL ANGRILY*
grrrrgrgrgrgrrggrgrwgfrwrgewiyq ijpw rhngrbfjwdkp[afgjnrsjhkfeALDPW{n PEOPLE WHO MISCHARACTERIZE AZUL MAKES ME GO... GO INTO MY REAL FORM GRAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
I was originally going to leave this as a tag talking thing like I usually do, but no.
I'm throwing in my two cents, just like I did when I flipped out over people blatantly ignoring an important part of Jade's personality. (Long post under the cut. Book 7 spoilers are flagged and skippable.)
I like the V poly of the Octotrio ā BUT ONLY WHEN AZUL IS THEIR EQUAL!! Why would they care about him to that degree if he wasn't? Jade and Floyd have made it clear they don't play with people who aren't worth their time, and a constant damsel in distress would likely fall into that. If you're not strong enough to take care of yourself, good luck, bozo! They've probably abandoned people for even less, too! (Baseless assumption, btw)
Azul is strong enough to hold his own, and he's intelligent and clever. He can worm his way out of most situations without resorting to violence, but if he has to, he knows what he's doing. He's physically strong, even if he can't exert himself for long periods of time such as with sprinting, and his magic control isn't something to be trifled with. Even if you outrun him, he could just as easily freeze you in place. Not only that, but [MINOR SPOILER FOR BOOK 7] he almost damn near broke Sebek's arm as he was clinging during the dream jump. [END OF SPOILER]
Azul is not a helpless damsel. He only ever portrays himself that way when he's tricking someone into giving him something he wants with minimal effort. That's cleverness, not weakness.
He's very precise, too, as we saw in his school uniform vignette when he practiced rolling dice until he could get the results he wanted. That also shows his tenacity, too, a trait the tweels respect. They love that Azul will try, fail, get back up, and try again. He doesn't quit, and he doesn't whine and cry to others if he thinks he can't do it. Sure, he may use others, but it's not because he's incompetent or incapable. It's called resourcefulness and maximizing results while minimizing effort. It's energy in, rewards out, same as how predatorial animals hunt.
The thing is, if Azul is struggling, they'll watch to see how he gets himself out of his own mess. [MAJOR SPOILER FOR BOOK 7] They left Azul to his own devices in his own dream, and they made it clear vocally that if Azul isn't strong enough to save himself, they don't need him. That was the deal between the three, something continuously brought up throughout the story people like to pretend doesn't exist. Floyd outright says in multiple ways, point blank, that they believe in Azul. They know he can overcome these obstacles. And when he does, guess what? Jade and Floyd hit your group with the "I told you so" beam. They knew Azul could do it. The twins mention that Azul getting everything he wants is boring, though. [END OF BOOK 7 SPOILERS]
The twins don't want Azul to always succeed or to always fail. They want him to be fun. And guess what part of his fun is? Self-sufficiency. Self-reliance. Being able to come up with ambitious plans himself and execute them in one form or another. They have never, ever babied him, and they never will. A babied Azul is a fake Azul.
Would they be protective of him? Of course! But they're not going to do everything for him, and if he can't do it for himself period, oh boy. He's either never going to hear the end of it or he's getting ousted, depending on the situation.
Stop treating Azul like a defenseless maiden or an utter crybaby. He isn't.
Sure, he cries when he's at his breaking point, but do you have any idea how hard it is to push him that far? We the player simply caught him at his worst moments. He isn't always like that! And the tweels make it very clear they don't like Azul being that way.
I don't mind people shipping characters. I don't mind them having fun. But at least TRY to keep the character accurate.
Now if you'll excuse me, I have chores to do. Have a great day/night, anyone and everyone who read this all the way through~!
Book 7 Spoilers Some of my thoughts on Azul's Dream and Leech Twins
Warning: Spoilers and messy writing. It's a rant ig, so it could not make sense, lol.
I want to imagine that the tweels definitely got hurt with Azul's first dream. That's why they reacted like that when Azul was dragged by the darkness the first time, vs. them holding onto him when getting dragged away the second time and when he was awake.
Because let's be honest, Azul appears in both of the eels' dreams, and although the darkness interprets Azul wrong, it can't be denied that he's there in their imagination/dreams and that they were still "friends" (because none of them would admit it). Jade's obvious, but Floyd, while they're apart, their friendship or partnership still exists. Floyd was just bored of the world of winning everything.
In comparison, Azul's first dream completely erases his relationship with the tweels, and that definitely hurt them whether they realize it or not. They stuck together for at least 3 years. There's no way they're not friends imo. They're a scheming set of friends with their own weird set of rules that works for them, and they're going to deny that friendship because they have a "no strings attached" bs that keeps them in denial. Back to Azul's dream, the tweels then see how well he has their personality and characters down in the second dream and with the experience of besting their own selves, they decide immediately move on because that is how their little tight knit trio works
TLDR; That "we won't help Azul out, he can wake himself up" attitude of the Leech twins felt kinda done out of spite/bitterness when they did the exact opposite the second time until Silver said they can let him go.
