Wanna get on top of this now and say:
Remember in the Heartstopper fandom how the young actors got pressured and harassed to come out?
Let's all learn a lesson from that and absolutely NOT do that to the Dead Boy Detectives cast (or any other going forward).
Hey people of Tumblr!
I'm trying to turn "Fencer Edwin Paine | Edwin Payne" into an official AO3 tag, so please please please if you've written or you'll write about Edwin fencing, even if it's just a mention of fencing, please use the tag🙏
Also I promise I'm not out of the fandom, sorry I've been quiet for a while, but I'm not planning on going anywhere 💪 and have more fics to come. I haven't abandoned the fandom.
Being here is great and I love this wonderful fandom. We got so little and made so much out of it, I love us.
Dear Netflix,
I need at least 5 more seasons of Dead Boy Detectives. If you do that bullshit of cancelling a perfect show after 1 or 2 or even 3 seasons, I will become physically ill and cannot be held responsible for my actions.
Thank you.
My brain is so obsessed with the Payneland fencing fic I wrote and I just need to share it-
I feel like I nailed Edwin's cuntiness really well I'm proud of it.
My brain is just obsessed with this, those parts live in my brain 24/7 really.
Anyway here's the link if anyone's interested!
I have already posted a snippet and a description in my blog, I just had to talk about these parts too because holy god they're killing me. I love Edwin being a bitch and Charles loving Edwin for being a bitch thinking his best mate is like the best person ever with such heart eyes.
Charles my baby boy just admit it you fell over your head already (...he does admit it at the end in my fic).
Anyway I'm obsessed and I just had to share it. Do with that information as you will!
Currently obsessed with a cancelled show that probably won't be getting a season two and yet is all I can think about.
If Charles and Edwin weren't ghosts what other supernatural creatures do you think they'd be
I think Charles would either be a werewolf or a vampire and I think Edwin would be a siren because he managed to seduce four men without even trying
Sorry for taking time to respond, I debated on answering that.
Using this ask to answer this question myself.
I personally don't agree. Edwin is more than his sexuality for me. Personally it feels reductive to me just perceived his character all about his sexuality like that, George said so himself Edwin's journey was so much more than just sexual awakening they were careful writing Edwin they wanted to show it's so much more than just the sexual part.
I personally think it would way funnier if he will be just some random fantasy creature with accidental powers of attraction, and he has no idea how that's happening. Or just like in the show randomly attracting creatures without any actual reason and has no idea how this shit keeps happening to him everyone are sure he's a siren or that he has seductive powers but he's just some random guy.
Regarding to what he would be, I want to call him a fairy for funsies but as a serious answer I would say he would be an elf. Not sure if they have elves but they have fairies and all sort of other fantasy magical creatures so far so why not.
Regarding to Charles, sorry I'm a bit uncomfortable with your answer as well. I feel like making the poc character a creature known for animalistic feral behaviour is stereotypical and harmful to brown people. Jayden is part black, making the black character/actor of the group the animalistic creature makes me feel uneasy, it's a bit problematic. Especially that it's European folklore, if anything animalistic he would be something from Indian or Jamaican folklore.
And I don't feel like those creatures are a good choice for him anyway. Werewolves and vampires are often known for being feral and intense and hard to control, but I don't feel like it's Charles. To me it feels like saying Charles is just his strong emotions and intense behaviour that are directly caused by his trauma. He was obviously at his darkest point when he beat the Night Nurse (and he justifiedly did so), but that's not necessarily his true self. He's so much more than just his trauma and I don't want to reduce him to behaviour that happened at his lowest point.
Charles doesn't have anger issues or intense behaviour, he's just traumatized kid and he let's his emotions out.
I know, in society that teaches boys to repress any emotional vulnerability it's a real shocker. But Charles is really just a sweet broken boy in my eyes. He's a very gentle and loving person.
Even though wolves are protective, they're still very possessive and known for being feral, rough, aggressive. I don't feel like it's Charles he's not that wild.
Honestly, I don't know what he would be. A fairy possibly? A nephilim (descendant of angels or something angelic whatsoever)? Maybe a dream? Like one of the dreams from Dream of the Endless realm. And then going rouge with Edwin. Maybe also an elf? He could be a lot of stuff.
Anyway yeah, sorry about that, I just had a lot of thoughts about that subject I wanted to express.
Of course anyone can have any opinion they want, unless it's directly harmful there's no right and wrong in holding opinions, I just explained why personally I feel a bit uncomfortable agreeing with those choices and I hc other stuff instead myself. It's all just personal opinions, how I perceive the characters myself since you sent me that ask probably asking for my opinion. Hope that helps!
Edit: damn I didn't notice how long it turned out sorry about that.
Please continue interact and share articles about what Netflix has done to our show. Sharing and reposting these articles are incredibly important.
My personal headcanon for how Crystal was able to go through airplanes security but didn't know her full name even though she needs her ID and such for this stuff-
Guys. Come on. She 100% had multiple fake IDs, are you kidding me?
In the show we see her going to a bar in the first episode, where David catches her again when she's hiding at the bathroom, and we know she's not a legal adult.
Crystal is 100% the kind of girl that had a bunch of fake IDs. Be for real.
She probably didn't have her real one on her. David must've left it behind and used just the fake ones to get into places.
She probably hypnotized people in the airport with her powers to not look deep into them and let her go pass security. (Not my original headcanon but I've seen it somewhere and I agree with it).
She probably had some cash on her too at the start, for the flights and one week's rent (she tells Jenny she has rent on her when she comes in, and "you're the only room in town I can maybe afford". So she might've had some cash in the beginning (she got some clothes too, didn't she?) but it has probably ran out during the show).
The real question is why the hell did they need 3 plane flights *and* a ferry?? Maybe it was for a comical punch. But that's still a bit weird. And such a waste.
Maybe the fact she didn't have all of her identification papers is what made them have to take a more complicated route.
This hold up for sure made Edwin get pissed too. He probably bitched about it to Charles the whole way.
"but aroaces can still feel lo-" shut up. it doesn't matter if we can feel love or not. why is this always your defense to why aroaces should be valid? it gets even worse with alloaces and alloaros. people constantly saying "aces can still have sex!!" and "aros can still have love and have partners!!" YES, they can, but you aren't bringing that up just to bring awareness towards aroaces. No, you are using that fact as a way to ignore and condemn the part that makes us aroace; the lack of attraction. I'm sick and tired of seeing aces and aros have to defend themselves by bringing up all the other ways they can love. Why can't we for once celebrate the parts of us that DON'T love?
Random funny scene idea I've had in my head:
Billy to Agatha: I want to be a witch! Teach me how to be a witch!
Agatha: ooh sorry kid you can't call yourself that- you see that's a bit problematic with the whole you being Jewish and all, they'll cancel us so fast. You can be a.... A wizard though! I think. A wiccan maybe?
Fineeeee I'll write the love potion one you fluff whores. I get it, I get it, you want a bunch of kisses and shenanigans.
I agree but it's the most complicated one!
Definitely the best idea though, but it's the longest.
But I'll start it. I don't think you'll leave me if I won't.
Now that I'm finished with my fencing fic, which fic should I write next?
Idk mates I'm mostly going out with a vibe but I'm curious to see Tumblr's preference. I have like 20 fics ideas, this is just what I feel like the most right now.
Call me Rubèn!! Or Ru / Ben if we're friends.✡️🌈 no pronouns/he/they/it.Used to be multi fandom, mostly Dead Boy Detectives right now. I swear this account had other subjects before.Usually mostly DC but I spit out a lot of random fandoms shit.
