#a point

so if i posted the last hudcon fic that i wrote before the *GUNSHOTS* at the end of hudconweek2026 what then--

i feel like sometimes it just gets to a point where

On the one hand I love usuk (though interpret it as ukus) on the other I see the opposition toward and diminishment of the ship within the fandom at large as divine punishment for turning England into a whiny bottom twink who can do no wrong and America the big strong macho man with no sensitivity. In my eyes, the ship, which was once so popular in the fandom, simply lost the mandate of heaven. Where once the usuk fandom was as plentiful as the stars and beloved, it is now few in numbers and an outcast in comparison to other ships that only gained in popularity and eventually overwhelmed usuk in terms of content and adoration (rusame and fruk). Why? Because while usuk shippers succumbed to tired old yaoi fujoshi tropes from the mid 2010s, rusame and fruk shippers were creating Shakespearean ass soulmate doomed tragic lovers content with nuance and multitudes. That USED to be usuk, but not anymore. Cause of woke.
