Masthya

mas // 28/uruguay // they/them pronouns

I’m so stunned.

I have to thank @masthya for this absolutely GORGEOUS commission they drew for me. It’s beyond what I imagined it would be like, it’s so beautiful, I can’t stop staring at it like a fool!

Shiro looks so content and in love and Allura looks so relaxed and safe and the warmth and happiness they feel holding each other really just melts off the art, it’s perfection. Sheer perfection.

After reading this post by masthya, I put some consideration into the idea of the  Zoldycks as a homophobic family and the framing of Killua as a victim of homophobia.

 That analysis makes sense at first, but the more I think about it, the more I feel that it ignores so many important parts of the story and characters, in many ways contradicting them. Special thanks to zoldycksquad420 for helping me develop and adding to these ideas! This would be a different post without you! :3 
~~ 
 Most Asian cultures support collectivism over individualism. The Zoldycks similarly value family--the family’s reputation, the family’s preservation, the family’s cohesion--over individual desires or goals. They value the family even over individual well-being (while also recognizing that they are linked). They see each member as having a duty to the family--a duty that sometimes requires self-sacrifice. They each have a part to play. By choosing his own path, Killua rejects not only their extreme actions, but also their values. Killua’s independence is more representative of a larger cultural struggle between traditional collectivism and individualism in an increasingly globalized world.
