Your honor, shoot me down this instant
Can we PLEASE talk about how Mr. Susan Link and Sir Lionel Frost are both autistic (or at least heavily autistic-coded) and, canonically, are each other's special interest? Because I really think this needs to be talked about. They collect newspaper clippings and witness accounts and stuff of and about eachother. And they genuinely love eachother so damn much. They way they look at eachother, my heart can't take it, they're so in love!!!
I went to a discussion panel with the Missing Link's Animation Supervisor (Brad is a really cool dude!) And it was lovely! I got to nerd out over all the super-cool animation techniques they use, a wonderful blend of practical effects and visual/computer effects, and if I didn't before I REALLY wanna work at Laika now cuz their studio sounds like a wonderful crazy innovative mess of a good time and I want IN.
But the takeaway I really wanted to share with y'all was that Susan Link is canonically genderqueer! Brad was flowing between using "she/her" and "he/him" pronouns for Susan pretty seamlessly, and when I asked him about it his response was "Susan Link is whatever you want them to be" And like??? That's... So good?????
The fact that I can validly interpret this film as a slowly-developing queer love story between a genderqueer sasquach and an asshole British man who go on adventures together, who are both so very lonely at the start of the film but who find companionship in one another is... So very, very good. It might not have ever come up on screen, but that's why I'm telling you guys here and now!!! And don't worry if you missed the film in theatres, you can still watch it on Hulu! It's such a spectacularly gorgeous film, and I genuinely loved all the characters.
I just watched Missing Link today
Expect very gay domestic au fluff of Mr. Susan Link and Sir Lionel Frost very soon because by god someone's gotta do it and that someone might as well be me
