normalize polyamorous people having families and raising children together. destroy the idea that the nuclear family is the default, that itā€™s the best option for everyone, that itā€™s the only option that ā€œcountsā€ and that any other kind of family is automatically unhealthy andĀ ā€˜badā€™.

Hey folks. I'm back. I've been gone for a while because my partner, Ollie passed away in August and I didn't have the heart to come back to this blog. Then John and I broke up because he was unsupportive through my grieving period. He didn't know Ollie well so he kind of like "wow that sucks" and then didn't talk to me. So then we had a conversation, I tried to tell him how I felt and he made this all about him instead of talking to me about the real issue.
Its been 4 months since Ollie has been gone. I miss him.

little polyamorous things i adore
big beds
the hand holding in a line thing when ur out in public
ā€œmy partnersā€
group dates
when u get the whole polycule together and everything feels nice and good
the group chat
an infinite amount of love and support from ur partners
solo dates but u spend the whole time gushing about the member of the polycule that isnā€™t there
double cheek kisses!!
being the middle spoon
that reverse-roast thing where instead of being mean everyone in the polycule gangs up on the sad one and says nice things about them

What's a nesting partner? Is it like the partner you live with or something? (Or, as my friend jokingly says as I write this, is it the partner you build a nest out of blankets with?)
[Serious]The first one, although as I have written before, some are both :)

Fact: polyamorists will build love nests out of pillows, shiny rocks, and shelves filled with books. Polyamorists have been confirmed to travel up to 500 miles from their native habitat to acquire particularly shiny rocks.

I see what you are saying. And I understand that some people might interpret all of this differently.
But what I had got from (both seasons and the finale) was, of course reluctance on Kala's part to be wed to Rajan and to continue to be his wife. But when I saw them for the finale it looked as if Kala had grown to love him. (As can happen and yes I do agree it did seem a bit rushed with the time frame we do have but unfortunately its what we have to work with since the Netflix cancellation but that does not mean that they didnā€™t talk about their relationship).I found that endearing, I felt that Kala and Rajan were coming to a place in their relationship where they were understanding each other's feelings. Wolfgang was an expected variable in the relationship and I agree that Kala seeing him especially since she has feelings for him without telling Rajan was inappropriate.
But to me it seems that they have talked and are in the process of getting through it. Rajan did seem a little wary back at his friendā€™s place but then they start getting more comfortable with each other after the road trip and other scenes (bonding time)
Tumblr media
Thanking Rajan, it is hard for Wolfgang to express himself to people that heā€™s not close to yet, so this is a step for him. And also making the effort to get along with Rajan (even if he and Rajan arenā€™t together, polyam relationships in a hinge are valid and they partners can be friends)
Tumblr media
Wolfgang and Kala cuddled up in the backseat, Rajan is aware and looks totally alright with it. He even enjoys himself as they all start singing and bonding.
Tumblr media
When they met up with Felix, Wolfgang said that it was complicated and it is.Ā 
Tumblr media
Kala dies for a bit and it devastates them both. Rajan is mostly happy that his wife does not stay dead but in this scene thereā€™s no resentment (that I can see) from Rajan about kissing Kala. This is right after she is revived and Rajan is in the room and sees Wolfgangā€™s grief and joy, he sees the kiss and heā€™s fine with it. He then goes on to kiss his wife and give her attention as Wolfgang willingly moves away so Rajan can.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Trip to the doctor where they bring Wolfgang along. Rajan is relaxed, even happy (as they joke about his last visit and Wolfgang gets confused) but Rajan isnā€™t irritated that Wolfgang is there, heā€™s not broody or jealous, heā€™s supporting his wife and is fine with their lover being there.
Tumblr media
Ah yes the infamous after wedding threesome that people claim that Wolfgang is just in Kalaā€™s head. To me it looks as if he was waiting for them both, yes a little drunk on champagne, but there.Ā  (I honestly interpreted this to be that they were all sharing a room or at least that Wolfgang was sleeping there with them)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Kala sees Wolfgang (this is obviously not planned but seems to be a welcome surprise, because Rajan also looks and /SEES/ Wolfgang)
Tumblr media
Wolfgang is implying that they both join him, he looks happy and carefree (not uncomfortable, he knows what heā€™s getting himself into)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Rajan takes a moment to consider this (while making eye contact with Wolfgang)
Tumblr media
This is not the face of a man who feels uncomfortable or is angry with the implications of this situation. He looks more amused than anything.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Its clear that Rajan can see Wolfgang as they start engaging Kala together, if he wasnā€™t there I feel like this scene would have gone a lot different.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Also in this frame Rajan is touching Wolfgang, holding him as they all partake in this consensual threesome.
Tumblr media
Relationships are not perfect and these three are no exception.Ā 
I am upset because people kept erasing their blooming relationship, as a polyam person I feel like this is important to have. Other polyam people may disagree but I am fond of these three so thatā€™s just me.
Y'all are cowards
So many people are against Ralagang (Rajan/Kala/Wolfgang). You guys already get your monogamous relationships (Nomi/Amanita, Riley/Will, etc.) Can y'all just let the polyam folks have this? Polyamorous representation is so rare to come by and Ralagang is just so cute and in love! Y'all just want to be salty because Kala didnā€™t /just/ pick Wolfgang. And she didnā€™t settle for both just because! She loves both Rajan and Wolfgang, thats why she cant ā€œpickā€ but instead of making it a toxic love triangle (which people are so fond of for some reason?) they made them happy together as a triad.

Iā€™ve stopped saying weā€™ve reached marriage equality and started saying we have reached monogamous marriage equality. People need to consider that there are people out there who still lack marriage equality simply because of how many people theyā€™re in love with.
