conflict is bad. misunderstanding is bad. miscommunication is bad. the basic tenets of storytelling – introducing conflict and then resolving it – are bad. any portrayal of two people in a relationship that is anything less than aggressively healthy and perfectly happy are bad. imperfect or unhealthy people are not allowed to be in relationships in fake made up stories, especially not with someone who might be at least marginally healthier than they are, because that creates an abuser/victim dynamic. which is bad.

are you sure that ship isn’t pedophilia? i know they’re both adults, but are you really, really SURE??? have you double checked? is one person older than the other? worse yet, is one member of the ship “child coded” (i.e. having canonically consumed candy or maybe a slurpee)?

you’re a bad person. the FBI are on their way to take you to Wanting The Wrong Fictional People To Kiss Jail.

TFW when satire nails it so well it takes you a moment to realise it’s satire…
