I’m replaying Spectre’s Call, and look what Luke says about this snail! Totally different to the famous reaction of his ‘future self’ - a little nod to the previous game maybe?

bonus reactions

Partner in a coma, partner in a coma, dead, dead, evil, partner leaves them they only date men until the series ends, villian, partner not seen because off screen we just know via word of mouth character is gay, partner dies, break up break up they die.

Its like no matter what they are doomed to loose everyone they love, themselves, or be unhappy for a majority of a series. This happens in general with sapphics, its getting slowly better for gay men, the ole bury our gays troupe. It just stings for me a bit more when the queer character is also black. Destined to be a villian (which if written well isn't always a bad thing) or to just die.

I guess I'm just destined to never see a complex fully alive like living talking breathing black sapphic character in a relationship that's not ending in despair. Also I fully get when it applies to plot and is a necessary thing but that doesn't make it hurt any less or feel any less invalidating. Like someone out there is saying yea this will lead to unhappiness.

Maybe with that last line I'm projecting years of being told that the way I love was a railway to hell, but idk. It still always feels fucked up.
