Supernatural was on air for so long and did so much random shit that any time a new TV show does something heartbreaking or insane Spn fans turn up sincerely like
“Ah the nerfed by actual god in the season finale manoeuvre, classic”
“Bury your gays trope eh? Yeah, I’m familiar.”
“oh nice! The old ‘character references previous media the actor who plays them has been in’ move. Sweet, have they discovered incest fanfic about themselves yet?
“Show made by Erik Kripke and starring Jensen Ackles is on track to have a final episode hated by the masses meanwhile the real world is wrestling with a virus started by an animal? Lol again?”
Okay, before I begin, this is NOT my main on Tumblr. My main is pretty much SFW, and anyone can enjoy its contents without any issues.
This sideblog is decidedly NSFW. That's a different matter. To keep it from the nuke-happy fingers of staff, I have to be very strict about one, basic, bare-minimum requirement:
Age (or age range) MUST be visible in a pinned post or the tiny bio text under your blog name in order for you to interact with THIS blog.
If you enjoy Tumblr's (rather endangered) NSFW side, you really, truly MUST have your age in your bio or pinned post. It allows those of us who run NSFW blogs a way to say "okay they are willing to PUBLICLY DECLARE they are not a minor, so I can legitimately say that I am, in good faith, allowing them access to my NSFW content".
No, a DM telling me you're not a minor isn't going to cut it. I do not understand why this is such a big ask. I work hard making my creations, and I don't want their blog nuked because someone couldn't be bothered to do this one thing.
Triggerwarning: Homophobia, Sex (in the movie, not depicted in this blogpost)
Plot: A part of Oscar Wilde’s life story.
Spoilers beyond this
Michael plays Robbie Ross, a good friend to Oscar Wilde and, delicately put, his first male lover.
Following are my incoherent thoughts as I was watching the movie: (some gifs for context, for the other parts watch the movie and you'll get it)
starting out chill with Oscar meeting his future wife
oh who might this dashing young fella be?
lol that didn’t work did it?
Nevermind it did work
I was so not prepared for this
This guy has a lot of thoughts in his head and none of them are holy
Bitch what
If someone looked at me like that I’d instantly fall for them too. Man brought his A-Game
Oh my god this is going too fast even for me and I’m just watching
Why would you give him lines like that?
(I refuse to clip the next part, I don't know who might read this)
What in the what I barely got into the movie, why would you do this to me
I have questions
I have so many emotions at once right now I actually feel a bit sick
I’m 16 Minutes in and my heart is breaking at the thought of where this might be going
Okay, I got used to the fact that I am actually watching a movie about gay men
Me watching a movie about a gay author: (☆ω☆ )
Me when theres actual portayal of intimacy between men: (○ □ ○ )
I swear I’m so normal about this.
Wtf Oscar why would you drop Robbie like that. I get that this was an affair, but like this? He picked that other guy up like an apple from a tree.
Watch Robbie take this like the king he is
Oscar met yet another guy (Bosie) and seems to fall in love with him and guy #2 litterally wants to khs and/or Bosie, while Robbie has only respect, acceptance and love to give.
lol taste of your own medicie, huh?
I hate Bosie
I love Robbie
Drama between Bosie and Wilde, which results in Oscar being sentenced to two years in prison
Oof that speech Oscar held in court tho, right in the feels
Robbie is an absolute treasure of a person. Get yourself a man like him. Don’t settle for less.
Wtf all this stress and heartbreak for Oscar and Bosie to break up after three months, the world is a cruel place
- End of incoherent thoughts-
That was heartbreaking in so many ways. The main story obviously is unbelievably tragic but we shall focus on other things.
There are a lot of strong performances in this movie, the whole cast was quite good.
You can strongly feel the love Robbie has for Oscar, he has this soft tone when he talks to or about him, he wants him to be happy even if it means that he himself wont be. He accepts that Oscar doesn’t love him the same way and still supports his friend under any circumstances. It's not just in the dialouge, it's also in the way Robbie talks to and looks at Oscar. He’s pure kindness, love and devotion.
He cares so much for him it's breaking my poor little heart :c
On a less serious note, my guy really went ahead and had his first on-screen kiss be a gay kiss!?! Fuckin hell! And he did so well! Icon, king, legend, right from the start!
Because there aren't enough gifs in this already, have some more little moments I enjoyed :3
✨Puppy dog eyes✨
Good save xD
Why would you hold it like that?
I don't even know why, just thought he looked dashing in this scene
Me too, Robbie, me too.
I probably could've written more, but that wouldn't do the movie and characters justice. Bosie's full brattiness alone is something I couldn't even capture in gifs. Kudos to Jude Law, he really made me hate that character. He's the exact opposite of Robbie. They had only two scenes together I think, but it's awesome to see their personalities clash.
I’d say you should check this movie out, especially if you’re lgbt+ yourself obviously. And then go ahead and read Oscar Wildes works, they're queer history and in general important literature anyone should know.
At the end of this I have learned that I, in fact, don’t hate love drama, I just like it if it's gay. And preferably has a certain actor in it.
The new vult of the lamb updates has irreversibly changed my brain chemistry. My au is on hold for the moment while I pick through the new information and decide what to keep and what to disregard. I want to try and keep as much as I can, but a lot of my worldbuilding can't be changed, so!
