Where is duty? Where is sacrifice? @marikocent - Tumblr Blog

irritating as fuck when people get mad at Black people existing in premodern historical fiction/fantasy media. like first of all, you're racist. and second of all, you are acting as though Black people didn't exist in premodern Europe which is simply false. especially when we're talking about the Mediterranean, like what the fuck do you people think is along the southern half of the Mediterranean Ocean?? everyone's on boats, there are GOING to be interactions with Black people in Northern Africa, and there are GOING to be Black people in Mediterranean Europe. stop being stupid. your imagined homogeneous white European past is not historical reality, get over it you massive losers

i really wish simple things weren't so complicated within fandoms. a character can be problematic but interesting. a character can make a mistake but not be evil. a character can hold a position of authority and still be a victim. a character doesn't have to be perfect and pure and innocent to be a victim. a character doesn't have to be perfectly pure for you to like them. liking a character who's fucked up doesn't mean you support their every action. why is this so complicated

My thing with this lie is Adrien actively expresses how horrible he feels about his dad even when everyone tries to tell him he was a good person, and how much he hates everyone gaslighting him and themselves. Imagine your dad abused you and your loved ones, but everyone just keeps saying "yeah but-", or just don't believe you.

He expresses anger, resentment, and regrets that all went unspoken and make no sense to anyone else bc of Gabriel's new reputation. No one is listening to him tell his real experience with Gabriel. All he gets after saying his dad was horrible is "well he still loved you" or, "he was misunderstood". That does nothing but excuse the abuse he went through. Is the lie protecting anything in the end??? Except for Gabriel himself???

Adrien is not happy, and his view of his dad is no better either. His feelings would be validated if the truth were revealed, and everything would make sense to him. His dad WAS a horrible person, and him being Hawkmoth behind the scenes is complete proof of that.

This is not even about Adrien's right to know the truth, it's the fact that this lie which was supposed to protect his happiness is making him even more unhappy and depressed.

He is open about this too! So I hope Marinette won't keep it up for more than 1 season tbh ☠️

@bambieheart444 nailed it once again with this lovely commission of Marinette <3

It is a direct reference to what transpires in my MLB Fanfic as Marinette wears what her mother wore in the past for a high society event, invited by Kagami as a +1.
