Happy Pride Month! by LeonardBirdstein

'Tis the month where, for just 30 days, we exist and are acknowledged (by some), where straight cis white men ask why they don't get a month, when J.K. Rowling will undoubtedly take another shot at us, when another country will ban pride parades.
We have to stick together in this rapidly-regressing world, because without unity, we are lost.

But hey, look what we've got to keep us going! A lack of good/canon queer rep in media. Hoo-fūckin-ray.

LITERALLY OH MY GOSH :sob: I mean my favorite ship recently got announced semi-cannon ish? the co-creator just said "it's up to your interpretation since it's so commonly debated over" or something like that, and they ARE cannon soulmates... so I'll take what I can :pray:

LeonardBirdstein

@dai_the_flu_ wheeeeey congrats <3 you've gotta take what you can get honestly
these two idiots were THIS CLOSE to being canon, and then the second movie did really badly (awful writing lol) and the last one, in which they were planning to do SOMETHING, never got made
Basically half the writers, production team and both of the actors have hinted at it or just straight up said it

"He misses the man he's in love with" like OHMYGOD JUST LET THEM KISS ALREADY :sob:

ty!! and DAMN :sob: i mean at least they kinda admitted it? still a shame though :disappointed:

LeonardBirdstein

19 Jun, 2025, 9:06 pm

@dai_the_flu_ yeah :( I've been straight-up writing my own screenplay for a concept last movie just so they can be happy (the lengths I go to for my hyperfixations are extraordinary haha)

I know how you feel, I LOVE creating AUs and crazy theories because I refuse to accept that my comfort characters are dead :broken_heart: :')

@dai_the_flu_ FAT MOOD

EXACTLY DUDE :sob: I also love reading other ppl's fanfics/comics to cope as well :pray:

LeonardBirdstein

19 Jun, 2025, 9:24 pm

@dai_the_flu_ gonna confess here... I actually can't read fanfics?
I would LOVE to, but whenever I get really obessed w/ something, I get hyper possessive of it, and knowing that other people like it too makes me upset and cross, so I just don't read stuff or really interact with the fandom much (if there is one)
I know it makes no fūcking sense, and I hate myself for it, but I can't help it :sob:
Curse my stupid brain :(

BlueBow_

19 Jun, 2025, 9:27 pm

Huh, that's interesting. I kinda get it, whenever I'm obsessed with something, I HATE when new fans or people who like it less act like they love it more than me. Like NO YOU DON'TTT :sob: My irl best friend and I are like the biggest Arcane geeks istg :pray:

LeonardBirdstein

19 Jun, 2025, 9:31 pm

@dai_the_flu_ yeah it's kinda like that, just on a slightly more extreme scale... it's really annoying :(
hopefully it's something I'll grow out of, otherwise I'm doomed for like /hj

BlueBow_

19 Jun, 2025, 9:35 pm

Yeah that makes sense! It's like a curse lol :sob:
