i will tolerate any treatment. like, i read for myself sometimes, and iâll put up with anything. you know, i donât wanna name an actual fandom, so letâs just make one up- letâs call it the grishaverse fandom. so i finish reading the grisha trilogy, and iâll go can i talk about malina on here, pleasee? and they go NO. malaria is a terrible character!! and i go okayy and then i go to the d@rkling tag and i go hey, isnât the d@rkling an interesting villain? and they go yeah, my uwu baby aleksander did absolutely nothing wrong ever. he deserved to have been with alina. d*rklina endgame and i go what the fuck, but okayyy! and i go over to the nikolai duology, and i go can we recognize nikolai is deteriorating as both a character and a leader please? and they go NO! and i go okayyyy, and they go youâre a little zoyalai shipper, arenât you? and i say nooo, and they go SAY IT! and i go iâm a little zoyalai shipper, and then i go over to the grisha trilogy meta tag, which is an oxymoron, and i go can we please talk about how the trilogy was meant to be a criticism of imperialism and the conflicts that come from it? and they go NO! in fact, weâre gonna glorify the d@rkling, infantilize nikolai, and youâre gonna go to jail for thirty years! and i go, âwhy are you doing this to me?â, and they go, âbecause weâre the YA fantasy lit community, and life is a fucking nightmare!â
