my dumb gay brain with very low standards: shiro gay!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! shiro gay shiro gay shiro gay
my smart caring about other ppl brain with standards that really shouldn’t be that hard to meet but never get met anyway: shiro being gay is great, but the fact that he’s gay on top of being a disabled japanese man with ptsd just makes the writers’ treatment of him that much worse. he was meant to be gay from the beginning, and he was also meant to die from the beginning. they either planned to reveal he was gay then kill him off, or kill him off then reveal he was gay, both of which are extremely cruel. the fact that he’s being shown explicitly in a relationship with a man is great but we should regard this as the bare minimum, because that’s what it is. i’m delighted that he’s gay but representation that isn’t treated well means barely anything, everyone that shiro is meant to represent deserves a lot better than how he’s treated.
my dumb gay brain with very low standards: damn true. but also shiro gay
