”I hate Jax now because he’s mean in the new episode—“

That’s because you obsessed over his Fanon version. He was never a nice person. He actively showed uninterest and boredom in anything that wasn’t violent, and always enjoyed seeing the others in pain. Heck, he even looks sad when they mention Kaufmo’s funeral. That proves he isn’t a soulless monster.

Time for some bitching about the stardew valley fandom and shane.

Im gonna be a bitch and say the people who act like everyone who loves Shane as a character or marries him in game thinks they can "Fix" him are toxic as hell. Yes even if they're being facetious.

Seriously do you guys not see how it's maybe a wee bit fucked up to say the only reason someone could like or love someone who struggles with Depression or addiction (alcoholism) is because theyre trying to "fix them"

Yes Shane is fictional. But the main reason people love him so much, the reason he won the Batchelor vote for the game by a landslide,is because people RELATED to him.

I've been playing Stardew since the first version. I remember the days of what we called "The Shane Train" when everyone loved Shane and talked about how much of a mood he was and how they wanted to love and care for him.

And no, wanting to love and care for someone who had problems in their life is not "fixing" them.

When I hear this stupid fucking joke, what I hear is people saying "If your depressed, Suicidal,or struggle with addiction, You are inherently unlovable and anyone interested in you is only there to live out aselfish savior complex cause your a gross ugly weirdo with a messy room. How could anyone every be interested in or attracted to you!"

Just. Fucking stop it. I don't care if his messy spouse room ruins your precious aesthetic. No ones forcing you to marry him in game. Just. Stop.

I find it kind of funny that Shane is labelled the "i can fix him" romance of sdv but...he really isn't. You, the player, actually do very little in terms of "fixing" him. You watch him have a few breakdowns, and you intervene when he's drunk on the cliffs, but...he's the one who decides to start going to therapy. He's the one who decides to quit drinking. These are not things that you ever encourage him to do. You can headcanon certain interactions all you want, but this isn't like "the player chooses the genre of Elliott's future book." You have no impact on whether or not Shane cleans up his life. You support him at a few key moments, but the desire to change and be better comes from Shane, not the player.

You don't fix him. He fixes himself.

I’ve also noticed that critics always assume that all Shane romancers are “fixer” types. It never seems to occur to them that romancers might see ourselves in Shane.

Even though tons of us admit just that, openly and often.

Honestly this, the major Reason Shane was the most requested to be added as a marriage canidate when the game first released was because his Struggles with Depression and having a Shitty Job he hates were RELATABLE!

I never saw anyone in the early Days of "The Shane Train" as wecalled it talk about wanting to fix him. Help him and care for him yes, but never FIX. Most posts were about how he was a mood, his backstory was interesting, his care for Jazz and Marnie was sweet and his love for chickens was Adorable.

He was voted to be added as a marriage canidate because People Liked him as a character. Not because of some dumb "I can fix him" mentality.

Genuine Question for the TWST Community!

(Okay, the header sounds super serious, but I promise it's not!)

Twisted Wonderland fandom - You know how Ace and Deuce had to take public transportation to get back to NRC because the magic mirror to Sage Island wasn't working? I saw a fanart piece of these two on a train, and it got the hamster wheel in my brain to turn.

(Credit goes to @letterhyms on Twitter!)

Is there any sort of fanfic out there that has Ace and Deuce travelling together to get back to NRC? Because if there is, I will go FERAL. /pos

You guys don't understand- I need to see these two react to the message Yuu sent in their group chat.

I need to see them panic and contact each other.

I need to see them telling their families that they need to go, and save their friend.

I need to see them trying to grab a taxi with a driver that overcharges them.

I need to see them arguing over which train they need to catch at the station.

I need to see them, like in the fanart, sleeping on the train they just barely managed to catch.

Heck, I need to see them take a bumpy boat ride to Sage Island.

I need to see them bicker. I need to see them worried about Yuu and Grim.

Because what other way is there to start the new year than going on a journey to save your new friends in a closed academy during the holidays? And find out that you missed the entire event while you were getting there, oof-

Meaning that he also probably had more pokemon available when Ash first started his journey, but he deliberately tricked Ash into accepting a rowdy and untamed pikachu because that was Ash’s partner back during their adventure together.

That means his verbal savagery toward Ash early on was friendship, which puts a whole different spin on it.

*Ash rushes in, dead last among the kids of Pallet Town*: Professor Oak! Is it too late for me to get a Pokémon?!

Samuel Oak, Anticipating this moment for decades and saving a very special Pikachu from the local breeding program for just this occasion and trying very hard not to laugh: Oh boy, we’ll see what we can do…
