Not actually an April Fool.

Someone asked me my thoughts on yaoi Eriol/Tomoyo.

I feel kind of sorry for the E/T fans who're about to read my attempt-to-not-explicitly-say-they're-all-complete-morons-but-make-my-opinion-of-them-clear-anyway.

Do not ask this kind of question if you don't want me to give a multi-paragraph, increasingly sarcastic answer.

Sometimes, I feel like all my fandoms are the same.

Auron/Rikku is, I have decided, the Eriol/Tomoyo of FFX fandom:

  • No canon evidence whatsoever;
  • In fact, possible negative evidence in terms of other relationships, interests, or similar;
  • They may have spoken once or twice about another canon character (Sakura, Yuna/Tidus);
  • A much larger age gap than most fans acknowledge;
  • Other issues (being dead, being the half-reincarnation of a great and powerful sorcerer who could see the future in graphic detail) skated over without so much as a nod;
  • Characters tend to appear in places (Japan, Spira) where they have no reason to be, as they are officially elsewhere (England, the Farplane);
  • Canon non-romantic relationships getting thrown out the window (Guardians, what Guardians? Summoner, what summoner?);
  • Appear as secondary pairing in stories featuring the major canon pairing (Sakura/Syaoran, Yuna/Tidus);
  • Take up space that could be used for canon pairings (too many to list);
  • Have many truly idiotic fans who make us all headdesk with their prejudices against certain pairings (age gaps, slash) while ignoring issues with their own (age gaps, necrophilia);
  • Are mostly in stories with no buildup or explanation of pairing whatsoever;
  • I have seen them each done well exactly once.

    Argh. FAIL and LOSE.

    Title: Because of Quantum
    Part: 1/2 or more
    Subtitle: OMG. WTF am I on?!
    Genre: Fusion, Cracktastic
    Fandom: That would be telling.
    Summary: This world has probably never shown up in a Quantum Mirror. This is just because the Narrative Gods of Comedy have yet to catch wind of it.
    Notes: Not written on a sugar high, or any other kind of high. I'm just that crazy.
