Y’all, sulasaferoom told me there was a way to get Celluloid Closet and it is now about to be mine. Stand back I’m liveblogging the hell out of this.

I was heartbroken over this because people were on twitter saying they wouldn't ship 2B and 9S together if they were the same gender and heck, it's the heartbreaking story that make me ship them, not their gender :(

Was this about the fact that Yoko Taro originally wanted to make 9S a girl? I know i heard that somewhere but I don’t remember exactly where.

Anyway yeah that’s fucked up too. Like, they’re like “oh but I couldn’t be able to relate as muuuch if they were lesbiansss” like no fuck off I’m thirsty as fuck for more lgbtqai+ couples but I ain't gonna turn down an actually decently written het ship if it presents itself to me (although 2B is bi so it really isn’t a het ship anyway), so yall can deal with a few cute lesbian couples. 

I’ve seen a bit of the reverse where people are like “ugh I hate these het ships 2B’s totally a lesbian” and im just like mmmmmmm let 2B be bi thanks she has 2 hands. Yeah there def needs to be more lgbtqai+ rep, but there also needs to be more straight pairings where the guy’s not some crusty macho man saving his damsel in distress and more pairings with bi/pan/etc people in (well... eventually, in this case) healthy ‘straight’ relationships.

And another sort-of related thing: I really love the role reversal with this pairing. 9S is the soft emotional supportive one, 2B is the hardened (sort of) fighter that’s saving 9S’ ass from danger. Switch their genders around and I’d still like the ship but it wouldn’t have that same sort of magic to it than it does now. 

Basically I’m super salty tonight and going off on all sorts of tangents please give me more reasons to gush/complain about things

No no look shine, I don't think we will find this (Loki fandom has.. a lot of.. facets to it), but if you wanna tackle.. Little shit Loki is my icon after all :p

Hahaha that’s a tactful way to put it. But yeah honesty I like Loki BECAUSE he’s The Fucking Worst, my favorite Loki screentime is him being an absolute little shit, and that has led me to... not be terribly drawn to his fandom.

Mmmmmmmmmmm. I also would really like to read some of these things. Many of these things. I think the thing that bothers me about a lot of Loki fic (mostly I've read Tony/Loki...kinda just cause and also because I refuse to get into incest shippery. It's just not even remotely a little bit my thing) is that a lot of the fic excuses a lot of the things Loki has done and makes him into a victim. I mean something has to give in some places for it to even work, but at the end of the day he has done

Some really shitty stuff and it drives me nuts how much Loki gets declawed and woobified.                                                    

YEP, all of this. And I mean, I’m also here for Loki having buckets of issues and for terrible, terrible things happening to him--but taking the edge off the ways he acts out in response just spoils the fun. And also when Steve in particular is in play, Steve has gone through a lot of similar shit and turned out very differently, which makes the woobifying and excuse-making a lot harder to prop up. I would be ALL THE FUCK OVER them getting into vicious conflict or unexpectedly bonding over similar backstory issues (or both!!1), but not into using one to bash or vindicate the other. (I don’t want to bash Loki for being the Actual Worst, but I don’t want to come up with reasons why he isn’t, either. Because again, for me, Loki: Actual Worst Little Shit = THE WHOLE APPEAL.)

Oh, please? It's nice of you to offer, I'd love to hear any pointers you might have!! (‘∀’●)♡ My paintings always reach at least 1GB... with one memorable time one reached around 4GB and I wanted to cry because Photoshop crashed after one single brush stroke (changing the brush resolved that particular problem, but it didn't help with lagging and freezing).

The beginning of our Feb was unusually cool and now we are paying for it with murderous Lava Heat.

replies for people who replied to my whiny post last night

thatlastdanceofchances replied to your post “nbd just some (probably vaguely entitled) whining[[MOR] I know...”

I can only speak for myself but between mild seasonal affective disorder and being stressed out by RL, I spend far less time reading/commenting fics and more time watching TV shows or just sleeping. Also, Loki has not been seen on-screen since 2013. Hopefully, Ragnarok will bring people back to the fandom (but none of the fandom wank *fingers crossed*).

And I don't know how long I've been following you but it's been a while and you have nothing to worry about: for me, your writing is stronger than ever! 

this does make a lot of sense to me - I know a lot of us are in pretty dark places in general right now, and it is...that time of year when things get kind of bleak. even if it weren’t for...everything. so I can understand that, and that’s probably a lot of what’s going on. convincing my anxiety of that takes some doing, though. 

and wow, since 2013...that’s incredible, but I guess it has been that long. what a drought we are in. I really am hoping that Ragnarok brings people back, even if only in a furor of fix-it fic. but hopefully with less wank? I mean, I’m not holding my breath for that. 

this fandom: not dead, just sleeping? 

idleleaves replied to your post “nbd just some (probably vaguely entitled) whining[[MOR] I know...”

I don't think there's anything wrong with wondering what's up with fic-response takes a dip (god knows I overanalyse my own feedback likw hell), but I don't think it's any indication of a change in the quality of your writing. RL is pretty rocky for a lot of people right now, and, IDK, could it also partially be that we're kind of in a lull between films/hype?

nothing wrong, maybe - I always just feel kind of entitled because I know that I...get more response than a lot of people I know in my circle. so it’s always like - cry more, or whatever. 

it’s definitely true that there’s a lull. I think I have these absurd expectations that other people will be able to have the same aggressively sustained energy in between canon that I do, like...maybe I’m just used to working off of finished canons where there isn’t going to be more? or long waits in between new material (because epic fantasy series)? or maybe I’m just...that much of a fanatic, who knows

sulasaferoom replied to your post “nbd just some (probably vaguely entitled) whining[[MOR] I know...”

I don't know if a lot of other people do that but, in this times of turmoil, I just hate everything. So I refrain from reading fic so my salt won't spoil a good fic - hence why I keep away from them in such times. Maybe I am not the only one? I dunno. Anyway :hugs: you're pretty awesome! I have followed you in every tumblr I have had so far, so I am following you for a good 4 years now <3

yeah, I can feel that. sometimes you’re just not in the mood. (I’m trying to sink myself into things I know I like whenever possible, so I can keep from lying facedown on the floor full time, but I know that doesn’t always work.)

awww, thank you. also wow, four years on this blog, that’s quite a while. thanks for sticking around!
