Does anyone else think that Grace and Simon are both aroace and qpr but likes romantic bloodymary. Like aroace Grace is canon to me and if he met Simon they wouldnāt actually date. But when I see romantic Bloodymary itās just fun to see and I really like it. But I donāt think they would be like that itās just entertaining
I posted this way early in the fandom before it went from noticing the similarities between both their stories and their characters to people straight up wanting them to just kiss and fuck and be in a romantic relationship, sometimes while secretly shipping them romantically and slapping a qpr label onto it just so they donāt get attacked.Ā
I genuinely used to like the romantic side of it, it was fun and silly and I didnāt really think they would do that but it was nice to see it sometimes. Too bad. The number of people who are just there to grab their poor faces and mash them together grew and grew into a sizable amount until it literally overtakes the meaningful interpretations and character studies. I see Bloodymary posts like Grace comforting Simon with Rocky aboard the Hail Mary, showing him plants, love, and a home. And the next photo is, Lo and behold, making out. Whatās the next one? Rocky being a fucking wingman.
Iām so sorry to the people who in the beginning, complained that aroace grace was being tossed aside for the sake of shipping, and got yelled at for ruining fun and to just block the tag. Scary foreshadowing
Which another thing, YOU CANT JUST BLOCK THE FUCKING TAG HAVE YOU JOKES EVEN TRIED IT š«© What seals this is that Iron lung fans literally had to CREATE A SEPARATE TAG toĀ seeĀ their OWN FUCKING CONTENT because the awesome indie film was completelyĀ and I mean completelyĀ overshadowed by the big Hollywood movie for THE SAKE OF FUCKING YAOI
Because back then, the argument could be made against the ones bringing up reasons that in fact, aroace grace and Bloodymary fans could coexist. And yk what, we did. There was a wildly accepted aroace interpretation, which NEVER HAPPENS btw, and Bloodymary. The cute space ship and aromantic people held hands and skipped to the moon.Ā
WELL IT CAN BARELY COEXIST NOW, IF IT EVEN STILL DOES. Eventually, the yaoi pilled shippers who areĀ so starvedĀ of content on the internet, kicked their acespec partners to the curb to absolutely flood everyoneās eyeballs with straight up men kissing, mass mischaracterization and complete lack of respect for what created the damn crackship in the first place. Survival. Heart. Strength. Bravery. Iām sorry to those who knew what fandom spaces were like and what was to come.
I KNOW there are some people who went along with aroace grace in the phm fandom, because nooooo Iām not gonna ship strattland, sheās a woman. Noooo Iām not gonna ship carlgrace, heās black. Noooo Iām not gonna ship grocky, Rockyās not a conventionally attractive human guy. Ugh fiiiiiine I guess heās aroace. BOOM MARKIPLIER, (which some of you genuinely forget or ignore is literally Asian) AN ATTRACTIVE MAN! WELL NOW, I HAVE TWO ATTRACTIVE MEN TO MAKE FUCK!!! *kicks Rocky aside*Ā
I see some of you in fics literally make Grace MAD at Rocky for ship related problems. Or, I donāt see him at all. Like even if Grace did date someone, Rocky would 100% be more important than any boyfriend. Your amatonormative views are showing. Youāre diminishing Rocky and Graceās relationship, the entire Phm movie and book, for this shit?! Iām gonna break somethingĀ
Bloodymary was something that could have been so meaningful, too bad you canāt comprehend the idea of a meaningful platonic relationship. To add to it, you stepped on the meaning of project hail Maryās messages about connection.
Ā No oneās probably gonna read my rant but this is so tiring and I probably have more too add but whatever.Ā
Thank you, for ruining Bloodymary for me!
