My hot take: That one phighting NSFW headcanon blog should not exist and there is something inherently wrong about it that I think reflects a deeper problem within the community.
feel free to fight me
Phighting characters are not our playthings to do with as we please. We do not have the right to take someone's children and hard work and sexualize it to an extent where it's tolerated within the community without creator consent.
Now, if the creators of Phighting have given consent to this then let me know; however as far as my knowledge is they never voiced anything of that sort.
When people create characters (in general) it's like putting pieces of yourself together into a small creature you can name and provide lore for. By sexualizing Phighting characters we're literally taking bits and pieces of the creators and twisting it into something I doubt they ever wanted.
The phighting fandom in general has always been a little silly, and there's a lot of people who relate to some of the characters on a deeper level. There is nothing wrong with relating to a character or providing small head canons to fill in for canonical gaps.
However, when it gets to the point where people are under the impression they can do whatever or project anything onto these characters is where you'll cross a line. Despite this perceived 'familiarity' we shouldn't forget that these are set characters that belong to real people who have real goals and stories set for these characters; it's not our place in any right to ignore explicit canon.
A canonical fact is that [phighting] demons don't have genitalia. There is no biological drive to have sex or engage in anything remotely similar. While obscure canon like this is typically ignored, it shouldn't be so blatantly disregarded as to break moral / creator boundaries.
The fact that there's a whole account dedicated to this kind of behavior is worrying. It practically screams the message that, "hey, this fandom has an outlet where you can voice sexual content anonymously and it'll have a chance to be listened to." I won't be the one to condemn anyone there but those kinds of headcanons should stay in your head.
The general audience of phighting is also quite young and we would all hate for phighting to become the reputably 'bad' fandom despite all the questionable content that's already been spewed.
Thank you for listening to my ted talk :]
People actually need to see this I can’t stress online etiquette (hell not even that just basic respect for people in general)
This was a long and yet very good hot take. I will not fight you anon
