"lEsCeLs"

What are you? Five?

Another dumbass in the sea of dumbasses who fell for the tale of big bad Lestat.

1. It was not "cHEaTiNg." That's the bullshit narrative Louis fed Daniel to hide the fact the actual problem was his own rejection of vampirism. The moment Louis told Lestat to kill her, she would've been dead. You know, because Louis holds the power. Louis could've put a stop to that "cHEaTiNg" anytime he wanted.

2. Abused Claudia? The same way Louis did?

The same way Armand did?

Or do you mean the train scene that "NEVER FUCKING HAPPENED!" ?

LOL.

3. Abused Louis? You mean the one-time fight that was started by Louis, not in gallant defense of Claudia (see above and her actual turning and the reveal Louis truly saw her as a burdensome object of service for himself), but because Louis always blamed Lestat for his own problems and was taking out years-worth of pent-up bitterness and resentment (via Louis' signature propensity to violent rage {see bashing in DreamStat's skull}) aimed at Lestat due to the fact Louis could not, again, accept his vampirism? The one-time fight where it was Louis beating the shit out of Lestat? The one-time fight where Lestat was begging him to stop? The one-time fight where Lestat knew he had this thing (Amel) inside of him? That fight? Or do you mean the drop? The one-time drop where Lestat was possessed (by Amel)? The one-time fight/one-time drop in which Louis nor Claudia were afraid of Lestat in the aftermath and Claudia knew she could poke him and rile him and antagonize him and there would be no actual consequences?

LOL.

4. This is not your little social commentary on racism and abuse. This show is about fucking vampires.

Go watch Blues Clues, Nonny. That's more your speed.....or maybe that might be too advanced for you as well. After all, you have to follow clues and clearly that's not something you're capable of doing to still be parroting this foolish, willfully ignorant garbage three years later when the show itself has already told you everything you just regurgitated from your echo chamber of likeminded dumbasses was all the bullshit of the tale to hide what was actually happening.

Frankly, it's bonkers that you morons even still try it with me fully knowing I'll hand you your ass. I guess your ignorance truly knows no bounds.

This is why nobody takes you clowns seriously.

Everything about it makes no sense, first of all, why Harry Potter? Given their ages they couldn’t be there when the books and the movies were at their prime and certainly by now there are hundreds of children/YA novels with the diversity and inclusion they clearly seek here. Not gonna bother mentioning all the problematic stuff I’ve found in just a few hours and hell, it was a lot. My guess is that a kid somewhere saw Rowling’s beliefs, picked up her book and decided that erasing her authorship, butchering and altering her work was some kind of protest.

Sorry for my rant. Do you have any theory on why it’s Harry Potter their focal point?

I honestly feel exactly the same as you. I mean, there are plenty of really old fandoms and this kind of thing doesn’t happen in any of them. Every fandom has its crack!ships, sure, but people still respect canon and experiment with the characters’ actual dynamics while keeping their personalities intact. No one turns Legolas into a bartender in the middle of Middle-earth and headcanons Gimli as being six feet tall. Sorry, but no. You also don’t rewrite the culture or backstory of characters because you respect them, that’s the whole point. When you’re in a fandom, it’s because you fell in love with a story, you fell in love with its characters, and you want to pay homage to those characters and play around with them. The real ones.

I mean, I have my own characters, my own novel project with its own lore, worldbuilding, and everything. If I want to create my own characters, I make my own stories. I don’t get this need some people have to use their OCs while slapping canon character names on them and then force everyone else to deal with them. Because if you try to look up anything about the Marauders, you have to dig through mountains and mountains of garbage before you find anything remotely canon compliant, because, obviously, they don’t bother tagging it as AU.

She is a terrible mother to Damian. She is abusive, withheld his father from him for no good reason and literally killed him. Jesus christ.

She isn’t Jason’s mother at all. Jason had a mum, and a good one she was too. Her name was Catherine. I despise the disrespect towards her by these idiots saying Talia’s his mother.

She essentially kidnapped him! And raped him!

Ugh.

Don’t even get me started on stories that criticise Bruce’s parenting but have Talia as a good mother. Seriously?!
