Follow Your Passion: A Seamless Tumblr Journey
Yes, yes, yes! Someone has finally said it! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Umm,,, who said that poppy x cas is now poppy x cas x kieran? Their love for kieran is not the same as the love they have for each other 😭 how many more times do they have say this? Just because they are joined now doesn't mean that they are in a poly relationship (which is okay if they are but they're not). The atlantians had joined wolven and mortals far before poppy was even born and Jen never said they all were in poly relationships. Why do the rules change now? Because it's poppy and she can't have sex without being in love with someone? Why are you guys being hypocrites?
twotq thought dump
it's not as if the bond between poppy and keiran came out of nowhere. they bonded over someone they have a deep connection with being taken from them.
i can't really say i understand the feelings around the joining because i think it was handled extremely well. i think that saying it's suddenly a poly ship is just factually untrue. let's remember they even said that if keiran found someone he wanted to live forever with them they would do the joining again.
i think that people upset with the post joining way they are are people who may not be able to get passed the monogamy-centric ideals of western culture to see that sex and love are a complicated beast.
it was a well done exploration of how sex and love come in all forms and i adored it.
i totally called poppy being a primal btw.
i love her powers so much, and it was so fun to see reaver and nektas again.
thank god isbeth is dead. fuck that bitch.
after perusing twitter for a bit, i have stuff to say so have some more twotq content.
what we're not gonna do is be fucking racist because you don't like the joining. if you can't criticize it without using slurs, then shut your goddamn mouth.
what we're also not gonna do is twist canon around.
the joining was always implied to have sexual undertones. it just was. it was set up that drinking blood from someone can be a sexual experience.
casteel and keiran are basically soulmates. casteel trusts keiran with poppy. he always has. this idea that he walk cucked or betrayed is fucking stupid and degrading to their relationship.
poppy, cas, and keiran have been in sexual situations together.
keiran heard cas finger poppy in the forest, the night of the wedding, when poppy woke up from her assention. their dynamic has never not had at least touches of sexuality in it. it's simply a fact.
i mentioned it in another post but i really think that these ideas of monogamy as the only true form of love that are so ingrained in our society are really what's pushing this victimization of cas and it's fucking ridiculous.
all three of them wanted it, and their dynamic really didn't change afterwards.
a giant portion of the fandom is just blowing this so far out of proportion. it would be funny if it wasn't so frustrating.
