U dont understand i had to write the first 70,000 words because if i didnt the sex wouldnt be as perilous or emotionally fraught. Which is the POINT.

the thing is i really do love miraculous ladybug but i also feel like my interest in it waned after the season 5 finale as well. not to say it was a horrible finale but it did make major changes that i feel now leaves a permanent strain on the love square (the lie) and the fact that adrien is still so out of the loop and Marinette gets blamed for everything it’s just really frustrating to try to engage with and watch. my love for the show is still strong but i think it also pulls from a point of nostalgia rather than what is currently going on which is why i have not quite caught up yet. and it’s also like, this fandom has become a much more hostile place over the last few years. Where if you say anything someone doesn’t agree with on either side ppl be blowing up and making vague posts about you. i truly do yearn for the season 1 days of this fandom. maybe i will catch up when s6 is done airing or maybe i won’t, we’ll see. but i have been pretending for a while that the direction the show is going in isn’t frustrating to me bc so many of my friends really enjoy it and i feel bad saying “im actually not a fan of where this is heading” because it Upsets People. but i gotta be honest that is the main reason why i stopped watching and i am Allowed to feel disappointed and frustrated and not enjoy it. i adore the new animation but the writing to me has left a little to be desired, at least from what ive seen so far… idk i adore the concept of the show and the characters so deeply but i guess i always just expected this show to go in a diff direction and while thats not the fault of the show itself it does make it difficult to watch at times
