it is really crazy to me how ignored linda is in fanworks when i personally think shes great. and u cant even blame it on the lack of information either bc we know maybe 2 more things abt rosemary than linda. also insane to me how ppl are devoted to jack/rose like god himself made it but don't even talk abt how sad felix and linda are. like. Make felix gay or whatever if you want this isnt really about that (altho i do think hes often simply made gay bc ppl dont wanna care abt women + see a struggling married couple in the 70s for reasons completely outside of sexuality with no children and assume everyone involved is gay. Anyway), but like can we stop pretending he didnt care abt his wife .......... yeah sure its funny to make jokes abt him being into men or being bicurious and shit but theres a lot of canonical evidence to support them loving each other very much, and tbh i find their broken little fucked up marriage interesting. he wrote a SONG about her man it's just as agonizing as learning rosemary wrote songs about her husband for showstoppers.
idk maybe im crazy but i simply think its good character writing that gets overshadowed for the sake of lgbt headcanons when, like, their marriage is failing because of felix's addiction. the walten files is largely a story about addiction and how explosive and damaging it can be to addicts and the people around them.
