i’m so glad somebody said this it makes me way more confident in posting my art on here knowing that a bunch people still tolerate aarmau and stuff. makes me feel better about my life decisions fr 😭
I don't know how to feel about Aarmau. Honestly, I have so many mixed feelings.
Some fans just make so cool fanart for it!! Two in particular. Of their own versions of the ship. And it's so!!/pos
Honestly, I have always been one to fix things in my rewrites instead of just writing characters off. To see the faults but also the potential and change what was wrong instead of erasing a character as a whole. So the question on is Aarmau is good also depends on if you mean canon or not. Of course, I hate it in canon! But there's so much wrong with canon. And they are like that because of Jess and Jason's relation, she doesn't realise it's wrong. And so much else falls under that category too. Of characters that weren't MEANT to be shitty because Jess doesn't think their actions are even if they are. Like ghost, as a prime example. Where do you draw the line? What do you do when what they did was bad but it's never treated as such within the narrative? And can you really blame people for still enjoying the leftover crumbs and baking their own cookies out of them?
For making their own take on Aarmau.
We all have made our own versions of the characters in our heads anyway. What's the harm in someone shipping it if they erase the age gap and other icky stuff?
