Gorgug And Ragh Were Literally The Only Ones Who Shared A Dream, Even The Actual Romantic Couple Didn't

Gorgug and Ragh were literally the only ones who shared a dream, even the actual romantic couple didn't share a dream but they did, and it never got brought up again... You mean I have to just move on from that??

Literally nothing kills an authors drive to write more fanfic than getting crickets in the comments. People used to be so generous with commenting, there used to be BOOMING prompt forums for writers and floods of comments, but in the last few years it's become very selfish on the part of the readers.

How the hell are fanfic writers supposed to know that the effort they've put in to write something they enjoy and share with others is worth it? We do write for our own enjoyment yes, but we also write because we want to entertain other people. It's devastating when you put a fic out there and there's only kudos. Kudos are great don't get me wrong, but we LOVE the personality of comments too.

You guys are commenting on the fics you read right? You’re at least leaving kudos on the Astarion smut and the pairs that have less than 20 fics for them too? You’re bookmarking stories you really like that are still being updated and ones that haven’t been touched in over a year right?

You know that even the smallest interactions are like cocaine to fic writers right? You understand how important a string of emoji hearts left behind on chapter at three am is right?? Right????

You’re treating AO3 like a community and not a content factory….right?

I think Kristen was actually Gorgug's first kiss and we don't know if Ragh had kissed a girl before his first guy kiss with Gorgug, it was just that he was kissed at prom (I think?) but all that aside they're definitely each others first same sex kiss

Buddies who have had something that sweet between each other. Buddies where one made the other feel so safe in his identity by kissing him in public and it was OKAY and he stayed friends with him afterwards, all of it is so precious and beautiful. I may ship them romantically but their friendship is always going to win out for me

Forever a fan of Gorgug and Ragh canonically being each other's first kiss. Forever a fan of Gorgug and Ragh being very good buddies who also just happened to be each other's first kiss. More people's first kiss should be their buddies, I think it's great.

the difference in the way Porter treated Fig vs Gorgug is fascinating and disturbing in hindsight. Fig always impressed him and it's clear that while he was manipulating her and using her, his end goal was that she'd be an accomplice. He encouraged her and steered her direction how he wanted it to go, but he clearly did want her to be a paladin to him once he became a god. He wanted her to choose him, in a twisted fed lies, honey pot kind of way as he encouraged the fun side of things to Fig (which is just so creepy still)

Gorgug on the otherhand, he was constantly placing Gorgug under intense stress and suffering in the guise of it being a concerned teacher, even in previous years he's always had contempt for Gorgug. Knowing he has an ability to control students with a particular Rage Token, whatever that is in their out-of-meta terminology, it's disturbing how hard he tried to make Gorgug reach his limits and lose his free will completely over years, not just junior year though it certainly picked up but since the start. He openly hated Gorgug and he clearly does not want Gorgug as an accomplice the way he wants Fig to be...

He wants Gorgug as a pet

you know, while it still would be extremely satisfying for Gorgug to land the killing blow on Porter, I think it might be even more so if he's not the one to do it. Like, yeah, showing Porter that Gorgug's way of Raging isn't wrong would be cool, but one of the gripes Porter had with it was that it was protective; he said protective Rage would not be as effective as an aggressive one. The other Bad Kids don't have the (capital r) Rage - but they sure as hell are protective of each other, and would rather go down themselves than let the others (examples: Kristen going up to the ship despite her shit Dex to make sure Gorgug stays up, Fabian constantly baiting enemies to attack him, Riz compelling Kalina to duel etc.); and try to tell me that seeing Gorgug, who's been regularly taking so much damage to for them, whose Rage has been nothing but protective, who's been fucking manipulated by Porter, his fucking teacher, to stray away from that, held unconscious (and on the verge of death, let's be fucking honest) in said teachers fist would not send that protectiveness into overdrive. And then the battle isn't just Protective Rage vs Aggressive Rage; no, it's now also Rage without Protectiveness vs Protectiveness without Rage. And in the end, Protectiveness will win, if only for the fact that it makes determination that much stronger; to quote a fanfic "Love can be even more terrifying than fear itself" because yeah, some of them are under the frightened condition from Porter; but they all love each other more than they are afraid of him. And I think that would be beautiful (and also still squash Porters theory that protectiveness isn't powerful)

and we're supposed to believe he's straight, Mr. Oyama?? he's kissed more guys than he has girls at this point

gorgug loves boykissing in finale episodes
