Boooooo to the "But Not Too Gay" trope
Me: * after talking with Jimmy about how frustrating subtext is* Hell, I just want Madoka and Homura to be canon in the upcoming movies.
Me: I heard that Kyouko has a one-sided crush on Sayaka in the PSP game, but that's only halfway there.
James: Yeah.
James: There is one thing I can agree.
Me: That's why Andy & Marius are going to be canon~
Me: "Oh great, more subtext... HOLY SHIT THEY ACTUALLY KISSED. AND THEY DIDN'T MAKE EXCUSES OR SAY "BUT I'M NOT GAY."
James: That they do seem to pussyfoot around gay/lesbian characters in the form of subtext, but they never seem to take the plunge.
Me: Hell, Madoka and Homura's seiyuu discussed with Urobuchi, "Please make them canon! Pleeeeease?"
Me: So just make it happen. You're not fooling anyone by saying, "They're just friends."
Me: But yeah, I want to do something about that subtext business. It's irritating me too.
Me: Yami no Matsuei has all those cute guys and relationships, but no canon gay*. Auuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuugh
Me: Busting those bastards out of the closet.
Me: You know what REALLY annoys me, maybe more than pussyfooting with "subtext?"
Me: When they have a "canon" gay couple, but they get nowhere near the amount of screentime and affection that heterosexual couples do.
Me: Jimmy & Timmy and Jim & Tiffany come meet each other at the airport and they haven't seen each other in a month. Jim & Tiffany hug and kiss.
Me: Jimmy & Timmy? Shake hands and hug.
Me: FUCK THAT.
Me: Tom and Barry are in love. They love each other guys, they're always holding hands!
Me: Melissa and Rhonda are a couple, but we'll never see them having sex. If we do, it'll be a minute of them having censored cuddles before they're interrupted.
Me: But when Melissa cheats on Rhonda with a hot guy named Albert, ALL THE BLOWJOBS ALL THE FUCKING ALL THE BOOBS BABY. AND IT'LL LAST FOR TEN HOURS.
Me: Didn't Team America make fun of this? Like, never show a guy getting a blowjob from another guy (just the receiver's expression) but when the guy gets together with a girl, it's HOT SEXY PUPPET TIMEZ blown out of proportion?
James: Yep.
*There's a gay couple in a side story in the manga, but they're one-shot characters. And they both die. So it doesn't count.
