I’m a gay man. I’ve been gay longer than most of Tumblr has been alive.

I’m also a huge fan of the “Tales of…” series and recently passed “Tales of Zestiria” which is the latest title in the series. This game was a decent game, but not one of my favorites (hello Abyss and Symphonia). The story was very bland and the characters were too predictable for my liking. The game did have the first (supposedly) canon gay couple. I’m saying “supposedly” because the game obviously ships them and there’s supposedly an interview from the creator that was translated that confirms it but then that has also been debunked, so who the fuck knows.



And that’s what my rant is about. The fandom has its buttcracks chapped all over Sorey x Mikleo. There are people on this fucking site posting



“If you don’t ship it, you’re wrong!”

“It’s been confirmed as Word of God!”

“If you don’t ship it, you’re homophobic.”

“We’re (LGBT+) getting affirmed in a game! Don’t erase us by not shipping it!”



No. Don’t say this shit. People can ship whatever the fuck they want and not ship whatever the want. Saying this shit makes you look like an asshole. My sexuality is not threatened by whether or not some random person on the internet thinks that two Japanese video game characters want to fuck each other’s brains out. You just look like an asshole and a bully. So shut the fuck up. Full stop.
