Worst Aspect Of Season 2 So Far Is The Shipping - Tumblr Posts
1 year ago
Ngl I didn’t expect 2012 April to have so much character and agency. She’s legitimately just cool and initially well written. But well, she’s Donnie’s love interest. (Which is a whole other problem this show has; it’s female characters might be actual characters, but they’re still accessories in the sense they were written into the story to be love interests first, no matter how much other shit they have going on…) That is to say the narrative is trying to drive her character into the ground by forcing romantic tension in near every scene Casey’s in with her, and making her lead on Donnie on with the will they won’t they bs. 2012 April isn’t bad; the writing’s bad to her. And it makes me quite peeved to see because they were doing so well.

ITS SO ANNOYING
I tend to dislike romance and I remember the Apritello shit
so I expected to be super annoyed at every moment of shipping fuel nonsense
but season 1 was literally fine surprisingly
Donnie could be a bit much yeah
but it was literally just entertaining
I didn’t mind it at all
then CASEY came along
which sucks to say because I really like 2012 Casey
he’s a goofy mf
badass little guy
an absolute geek
but God it feels like this version is trying to make me hate him sometimes
…actually I’m thinking about it and that might just be true
