#rayllum fandom

These kind of comments on Twitter from people that are ok with harassing others are the absolute worst because:

-You probably have piss poor reading comprehension if you believe that was just a throw away joke. We get Callum being completely calm about picturing his kids with Rayla and not even denying he wants babies with her. It's foreshadowing and a way to confirm something we knew (Callum wants to be a dad).

-Rayla is uncomfortable in the scene because a kid just said in front of her parents that Callum wants to have lots of freaky times with her. If they were alone she would have acted differently. How would you act in this situation? I would have died on the spot. If you want to interpret Rayla is uncomfortable at the idea thats fine but don't act like everyone should think the same.

-Dear‚ pregnancy fics have existed way before S4. The concept of Rayllum starting a family is something a lot of people are interested in. S7 and this joke in particular led to more people exploring this because their relationship is more solid and as I said‚ the joke can serve as foreshadowing/character desire.

-Why are you acting like people exploring pregnancy in particular is wrong? "Wtf is wrong with this fandom?" Whats wrong with this fandom is the hate campaigns you agree with‚ not people writing pregnancy. There's nothing wrong with pregnancy and sex. If you consider pregnancy and sex to be gross and morally wrong you need to revaluate yourself.

-If you are grossed out by sex and pregnancy you can always filter tags and mute stuff you don't like in Ao3. It's your fault you are finding these kind of fics in the first place. I'm someone who gets irked easily and I have found fics that disgusted me. What to do then? Ignore the fic and continue with my day‚ filter the tags and mute the author.

-TDP is about love. Rayllum would have babies because they love each other. Can someone explain me what's wrong with that? With a series that is about love and breaking the cycle of violence‚ why are you mad at pregnancy of all things being explored in fics?

-Rayla and Callum have been through a lot of hardships‚ almost dying a lot of times. It would be beautiful to see them starting a family and having a quiet life. They are both very paternal characters. Deny it all you want but Rayla is very mama. (Ex: the way she treats Ezran and Zym‚ considering Stella a daughter instead a pet‚ overall being good with kids).

-A female character having babies won't ruin her‚ doodoo head.

-If we have seen pregnant characters in canon why does it bother you people exploring it on fic?

-You follow people who have fankids. Having a fankid is ok‚ pregnancy is not. Brother how do you think these fankids are "born"? Pottery?

-Hating pregnancy because it "sexualizes" minors. 1- most people who explore this give them babies when they are over 20. 2- they are fictional characters.

-"The ten babies scene was a joke". If it was a joke then why are you all whining so much about it?

-The world does not revolve about what you think.

So, since how I found the show is kind of basic, so I'll just include how I found the show and how I found the fandom:

I got into it pretty early on, during Covid I think, so about a year after it released, and got hooked pretty quickly, and started watching it with my family (as I was with them at the time of lockdown), then as they started losing interest I watched ahead, and now they've kind of gotten back into it with me.

During the hiatus between seasons 3 and 4, is when I truly found the fandom.

I started surfing Pinterest (mostly for fanart, ever the Rayllum stan I was from the beginning), which eventually dragged me into the Wattpad rabbit hole, which was the first fanfiction I ever read, and after I eventually found AO3, and I've stuck with it ever since.

Then, I joined Tumblr in August of 2023, and I really branched out then, as you probably know.

Now, I've written thousands of words of fanfic, made several AMVs, participated in a few fan events and even hosted one of my own!

And of course, I can't forget all the lovely friends I've made here (I'm looking at you mutuals!), love all of you! 🥰

It's been a wild ride, to say the least, but I'm glad to have been on it, and I'm not getting off anytime soon!
