The way that Jayvik is playing out very similarly to Fair Game (Qrow and Clover from RWBY) in the sense that two male characters became heavily shipped within the fandom because of their interactions with each other not being read as platonic, and crew of the show coming out in support of the ship with their own fan art and admiration of the pairing. Once the ship has reached its end (Clover dying, Jayvik getting their ending together), one of the creators/head writers of the show comes out and says that was not the intention for these two characters after all.

And that was four years ago! How many times do we need to be put through this with mlm ships!

I got an ask that said CRWBY never supported Fair Game, which is definitely false.

Multiple animators supported the ship, and from a quick search I found this reply about Clover's wink: https://www.tumblr.com/rwbyconversations/189115702196/i-mean-straight-from-the-animators-mouth-clover

There's also a great video by Unicorn of War I went back and watched and it's where I found Eddie talking about Fair Game + they showcase a different CRWBY member apologizing about drawing the ship which got people excited: https://youtu.be/bVkuMFZl3vY?si=OR2Tf-31TdKPGNOM&t=1621

X-Men '97 Episode 5 spoilers!

I'm a very new X-Men fan, but the brilliance of '97 has made me watch all of '92 plus Evolution and now I'm on Wolverine and the X-Men. I immediately fell in love with Gambit because of his design and while his personality took a bit to grow on me in '92 I eventually found him charming. But he was a main character, and that cannot be said of him in the other animated series. So of course with '97 I was looking forward to him getting to use his powers in creative ways and more screentime in general that he got in '92.

I was being fed quite well with each episode with Romy teases + Gambit's use of his powers besides just using his cards (while cool we know he can do so much more). Of course all this is likely going to be changed after episode 5, where Gambit did a super heroic thing and sacrificed himself to save many. Basically all of him this episode was perfection, and I loved it. But if he is actually gone, I am so conflicted. Yes '92 was quite long and he was a main character there, but he truly is a different and improved character in '97. I cannot stomach the possibility he is only alive for 5 episodes of a show we know is getting at least 2 more seasons.

Maybe it's good they killed him off early so I did not get even more attached haha. I also have been hearing theories going around that it is likely Cable could intervene and will reset things (as he already tried to do) and everyone that died will return. I would love this, but I know so many people liked this episode because of the deaths, so it almost feels selfish for me to want that! Still, while Gambit was awesome in the season, so many of his scenes after Episode 1 involved him being put down either by hallucinations or Magneto. He deserved more than that.

At the very least the good thing about superhero comics is that one version of the character could be gone, but there are many more versions waiting for you to meet. I called his death happening a few days ago when a French leak confirmed this was a Gambit episode, but gosh I didn't mean it! And that's my vent. Just had to get it out there because I am so torn on this show now. I love it but it's also hurting me!

Everyone can relax: Gambit has returned.

Don't be sad! Your new best friend spinel is here!

I think these two would get along perfectly. I love them so much I would die for them both.
