Disclaimers⚠️‼️:

1)you're entitled to your own opinions, i'm not trying to attack anyone for their opinions im just ranting abt something that pisses me off.

2) Its okay to not like Techwolf, it's okay to not like Roxanne!!! This is my thought process/opinion please if you don't like what I say- comment, comment your hate please its so funny to read those :D

3) I love Eclipse as a character.. and in general okay, I don't hate him or anything currently so don't get the wrong idea. But if you do please raise your pitchforks in the comments, I'll laugh my a■■ off!

So if you didn't know there has been a running theme I've seen across posts on YouTube and Tumblr and it has become essentially what I believe is a majority agreement.

Now I've seen less posts talking about it probably because EAPS ended and they don't have to interact with it as frequently anymore but I still want to address it.

But first a little context for those who have no idea about the shipping war that Techwolf caused oh goddessdamm it was time to be in the fandom-

Techwolf/Techclaw is a romantic pairing of Roxanne and Eclipse from EAPS and when the VAs started impiling that "Yeah it might be cannon" the fandom literally split in like 3 ways.

1/3 of the fandom disliked or hated this development and were outraged.

2/4 of the fandom enjoyed Techwolf and huffed that shit like paint, hi yes I was one of them and I have no shame💅🏼

3/3 of the fandom was in the middle, they didn't feel strongly about Techwolf. They didn't hate it but they didn't like either.

And the Ship war was super messy because alot of those fans who hated Techwolf... were Clippet fans.

More on that drama later but just know in advance that I found this war so fucking stupid because in hind sight it lowky is why the fuck were us Clippet and Techwolf fans fighting over who Eclipse should fuck like what!?

People were acting like Davis and Flora descended from the heavens and said "we'll make the victors' ship cannon" and that's one of the reasons I find this drama so funny like my guy this war was useless,worthless,pointless and just plain dumb!!!

But back on track, Techwolf was very controversial and im here to talk about popular reasons for why alot of fans don't like Techwolf.

An Issue fans share about Techwolf is mainly Roxanne's character as a whole to them has *deep breath*

'No personality and feels like her only character trait is being Eclipse's love interest' now that's just not true at all-

Now onto the sexism and pretty privilege section of this rant oh jolly gee!

The Eclipse babying!!

Summary: Bitches be acting like Eclipse is a patroen saint who's can't do anything wrong because he's 'so traumatized and such a feminist and nobody understands that uwu' and they've started babying him to the the point where when Eclipse has someone in his life who doesn't treat him with respect constantly they go in attack mode like a toxic boy mom reacting to their son getting a girlfriend that isn't them<3

@inkykuro has posts that summarizes this as well and they helped me gather my thoughts on the topic so check out their blog, they post really cool art and awesome aus!

Anyways, I want to say first of all that fans will talk about characters not respecting Eclipse's boundaries but not the other way around because let's be real Eclipse doesn't respect his friends boundaries either if you really look at the show.

Eclipse told Monty to his face that she was a mistake, he sent Sun and Moon to a dimension he knew was dangerous, Charlie disappears for like 2 hours and Eclipse seemingly doesn't give a flying fuck and completely throws her to the wolves and when she does come back traumatized barely able to look at Eclipse in the face Eclipse again doesn't give a rat's ass about her mental health isn't really concerned.

More on Sun and Moon here, Eclipse threatens Sun saying that he's going to hurt him and Sun's so scared of Eclipse that at one point he thought Eclipse was going to walk down from the theater with a broom and start beating him with it and honestly let's be so fr Eclipse fucking would!

Listen I may have a complicated relationship with my family but one lesson my mom taught me is 'Treat others the way you want to be treated'

Eclipse disrespects his friends and his friends disrespect him in return that's life.

But alot of Eclipse fans don't acknowledge this fact at all, and act like Eclipse's friends, you know the people who had every right to leave Eclipse because he insults them to the point where they're either afraid of him or are really upset to the point where people have to go and comfort them, are mean to Eclipse because they don't kiss his ass!

And this is where part of the Techwolf hate comes from, fans think Roxanne is bossy towards Eclipse aka fans are mad because Eclipse acts like a bottom with Roxanne im not joking I saw a post saying they didn't like that Eclipse was 'too submissive'...

Oh no is he breedable too? HAHAHA- sorry I could not finish the joke im scared someone will get offended🙏🏽

Anyways fans are not happy with how Roxanne treats Eclipse which i don't get i personally love Roxanne and Eclipse's dynamic i honestly can not describe in words how much I love them they're my otp and I will never trade them for any other ship-

but apparently Roxanne kicking Eclipse out of his lab and forcing him to not do any work because he's a raging workaholic who ignores his own personal needs and mental health which harms him emotionally and physically to the point of refusing to sleep {yeah it's because of the nightmares but Eclipse doesn't talk about them at all to anyone} ,which may I remind you Eclipse multiple times just passes out, and Roxy cares for Eclipse and his well-being suddenly makes her a horrible person to Eclipse

I don't understand how that counts as Roxanne being rude to Eclipse AT ALL

Roxanne throughout the series had only had Eclipse's best interests in mind and sets him straight when he's being too much of an asshole then usual and damaging his relationships.

This is where the sexism plays out because it feels like the fans who are mad about this want Roxanne to be Eclipse's perfect, 1930's housewife who's submissive or Eclipse's little bitch.

But you can't make that cannon or else the fans who complain about Roxanne having no personality will bitch,moan and whine

Top Roxanne or housewife Roxanne pick a goddamm struggle🗣

Speaking of the people who complain Roxanne has no personality

Women need trauma to be a character apparently ?

Summary: nobody bothers to understand Roxanne's character

●○●○●○●○●□■□■□■□■□■□■●○●○●○●○●

Roxanne is an interesting character that the VAs didn't really explore but snice so many fans don't bother to learn a single bit of her lore lemme lay out atleast most of it for them *clears throat*

Roxanne was an og animatronic who after her location was shut down was abandoned while all her friends and her girlfriend{more on that in a minute} got taken away. After that Vincent came,stole her eyes, hurt pretty badly to the point where she attacks Eclipse because she thought he was like Vincent or maybe even was Vincent.

Roxanne eventually finds her friends and realizes that somebody erased their memories of her completely from their minds and replaced her. Chica, her, i guess, ex girlfriend who Roxanne had probably known for years just brushes her off and acts like Roxanne's crazy.

Roxanne does have trauma it just isn't touched upon enough.

Roxanne may be a sassy bad bitch but she cares for those around her. For example, when Andromeda ended up in EAPS and started panicking and tearing up Roxanne was the first to comfort her.

She chose to take care of children that weren't hers because she genuinely cared for them.

Roxanne literally killed Eklipse in the finalle!!!

Roxanne does have personality fans just don't care to see it.

They were too busy yelling about how Puppet was the better choice.

Ship wars aka Clippet vs Techwolf{ Puppet vs Roxanne}

Summary: Idk what to even write for this summary, uhm this was a shitshow.

●○●○●○●○●□■□■□■□■□■□■●○●○●○●○●

Remember the Ship war i mentioned at the start of the post? Time to go in depth about it!

So Clippet is a romantic pairing of Puppet and Eclipse

It's a very popular ship in the EAPS fandom and there is tons of very good art and AUs for it.

Though Clippet itself does have alot of drama surrounding from harassment to death threats to the VAs themselves hating on the ship and getting into drama with fans who like the ship.

Many Clippet fans are also Puppet fans who loved her character till she died.

This is were the Shipping drama starts because when Techwolf was made semi-cannnon, alot of Clippet fans were not happy with the fact of Eclipse was "with" someone that wasn't Puppet.

I saw someone's reaction to Techwolf be "he couldn't have moved on from Puppet that fast" and people in the comments were agreeing.

Im not trying to make fun of anybody,you can have your own opinions it's just..... Puppet and Eclipse had 0 implications that there was anything romantic going on between them, Puppet was literally in a relationship with Foxy.

Tbh I got into Clippet through AUs because I personally think cannon Eclipse and Puppet work better as bffs and if the VAs decided that Eclipse and Puppet should be romantically tied in some way I honestly think they would work better as friends with benefits who causally flirt with each other.

I dont think they suit a full,fledged,serious relationship but that's my opinion.

But back on track, Techwolf vs Clippet happened and it really just boils down to "Roxanne vs Puppet, who's better suited for Eclipse"

We both ended up losing and winning at the the same time with the Epilouge so can we just call a truce and shake each other's hands? Like civil people.

Anyways this ship war on the Clippet end were just people comparing Puppet and Roxanne and saying how Puppet was the better choice.

Let's do that for a second yk compare the two?

Puppet helped Eclipse to make friends.

Roxanne helped Eclipse to keep those friends.

Puppet had a more gentle approach to Eclipse's attitude and temper, letting Eclipse have his way most of the time but she did ground him and was a great positive to his negative.{my opinion}

Roxanne had a more rough approach to Eclipse's attitude and temper, she pushed Eclipse when nobody wanted to. She understood that Eclipse was a difficult person and set him straight when he got too mean. She's a great constract and parallel to Eclipse.{my opinion}

Puppet assisted Eclipse to care for his friends

Roxanne assisted Eclipse to take care of himself

Puppet focused on Eclipse's social life{my opinion}

Roxanne focused on Eclipse's personal life{my opinion}

●○●○●○●○●□■□■□■□■□■□■●○●○●○●○●

Overall both Puppet and Roxanne care for Eclipse's well being and were 2 big aspects in his life.

They have Eclipse's best interests at heart and only want the best for him so comparing them and saying "This one is better and the other sucks" doesn't make any sense tho that's my opinion.

They both made solid love interests for Eclipse so really there's no point of arguing.

I personally ship Puppet × Eclipse × Roxanne because of this!{I have no shame}

The End

Well that's all I have to say, I could mention the people who don't like Techwolf because it ruined their asesexual/aroace Eclipse headcannons but I honestly don't have a problem with them.

Thanks for reading this dumb rant about Techwolf/Techclaw <3

Sincerely, missed you dearly~

Sincerely me >:3

TechWolf: Both are touch starved in terms of romantic affection. So casual PDA: hand holding, leaning, side hugs. Are seen & felt as big moments between them.

Never really got into EAPS and didn't see much of these two but they seem like they'd be cute together.
