I Hate This Trope - Tumblr Posts
Who, if they were afraid of losing their beloved, would try to rectify the situation by prostituting themselves behind that loved one’s back? NOBODY, THAT’S WHO. I would have believed it if Linneus chose to become a courtesan because staying home was his greatest priority. You know, if he simply didn’t want to leave the Teahouse no matter what. He’d already lost one home so it’s even quite believable that Linneus might have strong feelings about being completely uprooted again. Becoming a prostitute for Atros makes no fucking sense and I’m so disappointed with this kind of stupid, moronic writing! It’s like it has to be super romantic so of course he’s doing it for love and no other reason! Well, all you accomplish by going for that extra bit of drama is to make your character look like a complete idiot who can’t figure out that cheating might be a teensy bit counterproductive in saving a romantic relationship. Ugh. Writing tip: don’t ever write anything like this thing. Ever. Let’s discuss this, please, manifestoonmoralmansex?
Linneus and Atros' summary: PART 1
Ok so this is late (Hey! It’s like a Teahouse tradition!) AND it’s only part 1.
So here’s the deal. I’ve been struggling with how to do Linneus and Atros’ story and this is the conclusion I’ve come to, it’s going to take more than one part. It may take only two, it may take three. Honestly, their stuff is so fucking dense that realistically, the post for them alone would be forever long. So I’m chopping it up.
For this part though, it’s ALL BACK STORY. By the end of this, you’ll get why Atros is so fucked up in the head. Expect at least one more post tomorrow, possibly more.
And finally, before the actual post, we have something lined up for you guys tomorrow. Consider it a fun little gift from us to you for your loyalty through the years. :) Love you guys! ENJOY!

Okay I am fucking TIRED of the trope where the estranged father comes back to see his family and gets the son some piece of tech that’s super current and amazing but then gets the daughter like a Barbie and is like “there ya go squirt” like it’s old and boring. Why wouldn’t he get two tech things? It just feels off to me
