#giocrusher

lol gay people :p I love soupmates but I gotta draw em more later, Giocrusher is superrrrr silly

reason: Idk i think its really funny. Crusher is named Crusher because of his Crush on Giovanni canonically which means that Gio probably KNOWS about said crush and didn't necessarily reject him, he doesn't say anything about it every time Crusher is like "I LOVE YOU!!" he just continues what hes saying.

I stand my ground, Crusher still looks like an Highland cows and I love Highland cows

Some of those cows, for context, bc i can't draw cows :

Now don’t get me wrong I like Crusher but I just don’t ship him with Gio and there are reasons for that.

Crusher’s primary trait is *checks notes* having a crush on Giovanni. It’s a fun gag but if that’s the only real trait he has then to me that makes it a boring ship. I feel like the primary reason why Giocrusher is popular is because Crusher’s a man. Jello has even confirmed on stream that for each arc he’ll have to make reasons for why Gio’s minions are EXCLUDED from the action.

While I’m not the biggest GioLori shipper there is one big reason I like it more than Gio Crusher.

Lorelai doesn’t worship Giovanni. In my mind, most of their interactions have been as equals even though Lorelai is leagues stronger. GioCrusher just feels kinda awkward when Crusher treats Giovanni as some higher being even though their own gap in power is smaller and their whole dynamic seems one-sided on Crusher’s part.

I am aware of the people who don’t ship GioLori because “Lorelai’s a bad person” but I’ve seen some of you ship Percy and Zora so that seems like a moot point. And I think there’s a good chunk of people who act like Lorelai isn’t going to change even though Prison of Plastic is just the beginning of her character arc. And the fact Lorelai has flaws makes shipping her with Giovanni much more interesting.

At the end of the series I’d be just as happy if Giovanni was still single or was dating Lorelai. I just think a lot of Epithet fans are giving GioCrusher more praise than it deserves.

Yes. Crusher bought him a plush once cus I said so.
