Hey lovelies, I just wanted to ask something, how do fans of A Fantastie of the Stepmother handle or understand people who don’t like the same ships, especially the Jeremy and Shuri one? (They argue & never give up) but I’m not saying everyone of them.
I’ve noticed some fans say they’re fine with it even though the relationship has some really uncomfortable undertones (like the incest, even if it’s not biological). Personally, I’m not a fan of “Jershu” . I’ve also seen Richelieu & Shuri shippers, which honestly really disgusted me, that kind of content feels so wrong.
The Nora & Shuri shippers are a lot more wholesome and sweet, until it gets taken too far into sexual territory. But I guess I can’t fully blame the fans when the author adds pregnancy tropes for nearly every female character at the end, it just makes things uncomfortable.
What really throws me off though is how some people who post those types of ships act like victims when others disagree. It’s totally fine to like what you like, but it’s also fair for people to find it disturbing or to not want to see it. If you share it publicly, people will react, & not everyone’s going to agree.
I’m a big Richelieu fan, but I never write or draw anything sexual about him, especially not with Shuri. And honestly, I think Orka is such an amazing artist with huge potential, it’s just frustrating to see that kind of potential wasted on those kinds of storylines.
Anyway, I’m not trying to start drama, I just genuinely wanted to talk about this topic & see how others see it.
