...oh, dear. If multiple posts on my f-list are any indication, there is Gwen wank. So shocked right now you guys, SO SHOCKED.

I'm used to having ships that aren't canon. Most of mine are not. I know how much it sucks and I would never mock that. I know how much this SHOW sucks sometimes, and I know people are angry. Personally Merlin has been ( Read more... )

Yeah, I've been working on something all weekend; I think I need to up the ante on it and post it either today/tomorrow. But I think I called this last week or so.

Fandom is showing it's ass, and it's not a nice one like Rafa Nadal's. :(

I haven't SEEN any Gwen wank today though I have felt its ripples on Tumblr; my biggest rage-inducing moment was actually seeing a Gwen/Arthur shipper calling Morgana a bitch and then complaining when people told her to step off that everyone gets to say bad things about Gwen so she should be able to say bad things about Morgana. Point, missing, much? If there's anything worse than people slamming Gwen for no reason at all, it's seeing Gwen/Arthur fans turn it around and decide to just treat everyone else like they're being treated - BECAUSE THAT SOLVES EVERYTHING.

Fandom just needs to grow the fuck up. And your lists are perfect, especially this one:

Things I Do Care About (srsly. not cool ( ... )

Ur so right... I only write about my support of A/G. I really like Morgana. Some one has to be evil. So I guess it's going to be Morgana. Fandom on the internet is waaaay to crazy this days.

Ugh. I don't understand the Morgana-hate from (select) A/G shippers. Gwen and A/G have some of their biggest episodes (3x07 and 3x10) ALL THANKS TO MORGANA BEING A "BITCH". We should be THANKFUL for her "bitchiness" because it's been giving our ship storylines and screentime. So bring on the "bitch", I say. Cuz it looks like Morgana's shenanigans might be the catalyst for more A/G at the end of S3 and I am not complaining.

For serious. Personally I just adore Morgana - she's my girl the way that Gwen is Heather's girl :P so I'm not going to take kindly to seeing her bashed whatever the reasoning behind it. But criticising her for intervening with Gwen and Arthur is patently ridiculous because her interventions, no matter how unpleasant her intentions, have hardly been detrimental here! I mean it looks like next ep, minimally, she's going to be the cause of some epic blanket-based make-out times.

HEATHER! HEATHER! I have a ~THEORY on where Gwen and Morgana were this whole episode. They were holed up in Morgana's chambers, since Alice stole Gwen's house, and had a very heated discussion about proper uses for magic and how killing Arthur is NOT a proper use, Morgana and then that heated conversation became a rather passionate two day bout of sexytimes.

I said things on this series in my own post, but I ♥ Gwen. I do. I don't ♥ the shows producers, however, and their need to cram the A/G down our throats to the expense of making it look less natural. Seriously, you can't even pretend that hallway kiss made sense last episode, it was sweet on Arthur's part but Gwen was a ragdoll and none of that is Bradley or Angel's fault. BAH. I want some ~romance in my romance thanks ( ... )

This is my last comment on the subject. Because I like to watch tv for enjoyment. Fighting over couples, charatcers, storylines etc... makes the show less enjoyable for me... and I hate that.

So I leave you all with this:

I may not agree with you but I'd love to "respect your argument." Name calling isn't going to cut it. You can be passionate and rational at the same time.
