Villain-Loving Sin Hours

[rynling]

I don't mean to hate on Prokopetz. I like Prokopetz a lot, so much so that I'm basing one of the characters in my original fantasy novel on his online persona.

But still, this post is making the rounds again, and I think it's at least ten times funnier when you realize that it exists at least partially because the OP has been butthurt for years about people having a crush on Magus from Chrono Trigger.



If you're wondering why I don't actually follow Prokopetz on Tumblr, by the way, it's because I read his blog like a novel and don't want to get spoiled.

I'm fucking dying over this added context, because my boyfriend 100% has and still does crush on Magus and I'm glad to have some odd, subconscious connection to this butthurt-ness.

It's funny how you (and by "you" I mean "me") can sometimes develop affective relationships with certain viral Tumblr posts. I try to stay off Tumblr during the Inktober season, but when I came back on and saw that Kashuan had reblogged this post I almost spit out my tea, like, Oh! It's back!!

It's actually been kind of interesting to see this guy's attitude on villain fandom shift over the past year or so. To give an example, he went from being fairly anti-Ganondorf to recently making posts about how maybe it might be kind of cool to see Princess Zelda interact with Ganon in Age of Calamity. I'm like, Yessssss now you're getting it.

Anyway, your boyfriend has good taste, both Magus and Schala are perfectly acceptable waifus.
