The Old Ship

had this au kicking around about Catra agreeing to marry She-Ra for political reasons having no idea it’s actually Adora, and of course Adora who’s beside herself standing so close to Catra again but can’t reveal who she is yet. They’re both wartorn and desperate.

The other two categories are series (which I’ll get back to later cause boy do I have things to say) and episodes. Episodes is a really shitty category. It’s literally just episodes from random shows that have queer plot lines or characters in that one single episode. Half of them are from shows mentioned in series. I’m convinced they only added this one so the page would feel less barren, but it’s a very poor attempt. 

Which brings me back to series. It’s here that it goes from funny to infuriating. There are shows on there like glee and the high school musical series which I haven’t seen and can’t really speak on, but what really caught my interest was their inclusion of gravity falls and the owl house. 

Gravity falls has two characters that are revealed to be gay in the finale and I think that’s about it as far as any queer rep goes so it feels cheap to put it in a pride collection. Gravity falls is only tangentially queer, and that’s thanks to disney. Gravity falls had to fight just so that two men could say they loved each other, and they could only do it in the last episode. 

But the owl house. The owl house. This is a show that disney is cancelling for “not fitting the brand,” a show the creators have had to fight just to get it as far as it has already come, and disney has the audacity to tout it in a pride collection.
