Exactly. Most people who came in with compilation and stuck around have been a delight, but any more of those who want to spit on our work, say we’re fandoming wrong and claim they understand the source material in the ‘one true way’ can take a hike.
What gets me about Reylo is that it’s basically a self-insert ship. Reylos are attracted, en masse, to white boy Kylo Ren and wanna hop on his dick, which makes Rey – the attractive female lead – the catalyst of their thirst. That has to be the explanation for this shit:
What about the expression on Rey’s face indicates that she finds her captor at all attractive? Without context: she looks like she’s trying to get away from a nasty, stank-breath dude with no understanding of personal space. With context: he is torturing her for information. She is CRYING.
Reylos DO NOT care about Rey, they only care about Kylo Ren and his dead “Ben Solo” identity – which is another attempt at making him out to be attractive (in this case: redeemable, kind at heart, selfless) when canon evidence presents otherwise.
Additionally, while it’s obvious how a relationship with Rey would benefit Kylo (she would “make him a better man”), what could “Ben” give her that someone else couldn’t? Admiration and unconditional love? (If someone who murdered their own father in cold blood is even capable of such a thing). There’s Finn, standing right there, clinging to her like she’s his lifeline:
Without context, it can be understood that they care for each other deeply. With context, we see Rey embracing a boy, now a man, whom she adores and who, in turn, adores her. A relationship between Finn and Rey would be one of mutual respect; we’ve already seen how they build each other up and support one another. What’s important here is that neither Rey nor Finn would have to change.
What I’m saying is: Finnrey is an actual relationship. Reylo is wish-fulfillment.
“Reylos don’t care about Rey”
Bullshit.
You’re full of shit OP. You are absolutely full of shit.
Let’s also not forget to mention Rey spends the first half of TFA desperately trying to set up personal space boundaries with Finn. Anything can be interpreted any way.
I’m still confused as to when shipping became this “only acceptable if it’s canon” thing. Like, fuck you, OP, none of us would stop shipping it if it didn’t become canon in the end. Why would we? This is fandom, the land of “anything goes”, not “watch the movies and then stick exclusively to canon”-land. How boring you are.
Plus, you say wish-fulfilment as if it’s a bad thing. Guess what, it’s not. I’m gonna imagine hopping on as many fictional dicks as I want, regardless of how canon the relationship I use for it is, and there’s nothing you can do about it, boo hoo.
Wonder Woman greeting T’Challa with the Wakanda Forever salute, but forgetting what happens when she clashes her gauntlets like that
Accidentally blowing him through three walls, a car, and M’Baku
He is, of course, completely fine, but that was certainly not the greeting he expected from the suddenly VERY apologetic Princess
Bonus: T’Challa runs back to Diana and does the salute again, channeling the power from the improved kinetic absorption and redistribution on his suit, and launches Diana straight into the sky. They laugh about it later.
This is the wholesome content I signed up for
Further bonus: during a later team-up, the villain has T’Challa by the throat and is threatening to snap his neck if Diana comes any closer. She hesitates, at which point the villain laughs and asks if T’Challa has any last words. Of course he does:
“Wakanda Forever…”
Diana just smiles…
The cross continuity friendship we deserve
Someone made art!
You are forgetting that during the initial introduction Shuri is there recording it, and dying laughing the entire time.
