When Youre Sorting The Tank Filters And A Big Boye Wants Cuddles.

So... Flame. Sure, fans love to hype him up as this big, bold skywing hero, but let's be real here: he's got some major issues. Like, dude's ego is huge, and he's got this whole superiority complex that's just not cute. But what's even worse? Some fans eat it up, totally ignoring how his behavior reinforces all these messed-up power dynamics.

And don't even get me started on his fanbase. They're just as problematic as he is, if not more. They defend his every move, no matter how shady, and attack anyone who dares to call him out. It's like they're blind to his flaws or just don't care because he's their precious skywing idol. But here's the thing: turning a blind eye to Flame's problematic behavior only perpetuates the toxic culture he thrives in. We need to hold both him and his fans accountable if we ever want to see real change in the wof fandom.

I've got to be honest, you need to breathe in, breathe out, and chill out.

Also, "Messed up power dynamics" where are you getting that from. Was the messed up power dynamic when he was under Morrowseer's control because of the false prophecy, or when he was (possibly) forced by Darkstalker to kill Stonemover? He's never been in a true positon of power, and though he has done bad things, its never been because of the power he holds over others - in fact, it is that he feels like he lacks power that causes him to do what he does.

Same thing with the "toxic culture he thrives in". It's not like Flame lives in a patriarchal society where he abuses a girlfriend and that's why he's a villain and should be "held accountable". He tried to kill a dragon because he got mad that the dragon wouldn't heal his face. It's not that complex.

Sorry for inserting my opinion so much into this. I try and stay objective and let people come to their own conclusions on my posts, but this just made me really confused and annoyed.

R u gay4pay??

God wouldn’t that be a good idea. I’m gay for free like an idiot. 

I don't get Darkstalker defenders because if they wanted something like a deep and complicated character that tells a tale so tragic and so avoidable had they not been abused by their family, where ultimately it leads to said character using their magic to their fullest and because of it they got unrightfully painted as pure evil by the fandom when really there were a ton of nuances and explanations for why they did it...like Albatross is right there. Albatross is everything Darkstalker defenders make him out to be and more. Why did they pick the abusive maniac who goes "Clearsight I NEED to kill children" and not the Old Fish Guy who killed three dozen people that one time?

one of my fav types of tiktoks is 16 yo boys fucking around in their mom's closet when she isnt home

In my original drafts, deathbringer was originally a butch lesbian however scholastic objected to that decision so it was changed.
