My love for Benoit Blanc knows no bounds. He's just some guy, he's a genius, he's the new Poirot, he encourages women to speak their mind at people who screw them over, he hates rich people, he's married to malewife Hugh Grant, he dresses like a 70s queer man with access to online shopping, he has no consistent accent other than Vaguely American Southern, he can solve any mystery, he cannot win Among Us, and I would marry the hell out of him him if I wasn't a lesbian and he wasn't a gay dude.

#literally benoit blanc is my beloved i love that silly queer detective SO much #beloved southern guy with funky fashion. king <3 #knives out #chives out #glass onion #benoit blanc #my most beloved silly man

There is something about proudly proclaiming a show "tumblrista catnip" that makes me emotional.

Something about how for years tumblrinas were ridiculed by show creators.

Something about Supernatural having a meta episode set at a convention with all the weirdo fans that made the main characters uncomfortable. Something something about Becky and the message that fangirls are gross and obsessive.

Something about Sherlock and the way fans were portrayed as crazy obsessive nutjobs for trying to figure out how he faked his death.

Something about creators mocking fandoms, dismissing them as freaks. Something about queer people not being welcome to engage in their creations because "why do you have to make everything gay?"

Something about the malicious culture of queerbaiting throughout the 2000s/2010s, followed by Bury Your Gays tropes across the media landscape because hell, you should be grateful we even gave you queer characters to begin with - and everyone dies in our show! You ain't special!

Something about Destiel questions being banned from conventions...

And then...

Something instead about Good Omens, and letting the story adapt naturally, embracing the fanbase and leaning into the fanservice.

Something about Our Flag Means Death, and the genuine outpouring of love and affection between cast, crew, and fandom that culminated in an explosion of fanworks that were never once mocked or deemed gross or wrong.

Something about Sandman, and staunchly digging in their heels on the queerness of it all, refusing to give in to the homophobes and instead avidly mocking THEM on social media rather than us.

Something about the writers hearing about fandoms favourite ships and excitedly stating that YES! We DID lean into that because it happened naturally and made sense.

Something about a firefighter coming out as bisexual after 7 seasons...

So yeah, something about a new high quality show made FOR US. By creators that love US. Respect US, and WANT our love.

Something about US FINALLY being a target audience for the best shows being made on TV now.

Tumblrista catnip. Creators saying "we made this for you. You are important. Your voices have been heard."

It just... all got a bit overwhelming for a moment there.

Benoit Blanc & Sherlock Holmes both prove that the best detectives aren’t actual trained detectives but nosy gay men who drink their respect women juice and hate the rich.

Honestly one of the things I like about Edwin’s character development and accepting he likes guys is that everyone else is so normal about it. He’s the only one going But. That’s Not Allowed? And Niko the others are like sure it is! They take Monty liking him as something normal and obvious. Being surrounded by people who take that kind of thing as a given is such a nice (and bizarre) feeling when you’re not used to it

And of course when he tells Charles and there’s no recoil no betrayal just “ok I can’t say I feel the same way but you ARE my best friend and I’m not going anywhere.” The confession didn’t make anything weird. They have as much time as they want to figure this out. I love them so much

#dead boy detectives #dead boy detectives spoilers #the feeling when I went to a meeting of queer guys and everyone took it as a given that I was a guy #because i was there #made me want to lie on the floor #wait til Edwin finds out about trans women #see what happens with that information

what if lawlight had an adopted child and what if it was naoto shirogane from persona 4

i tried to keep naoto’s original story in mind and it actually works so well. lawlight was meant to be their parents

naoto is transmasc he/they to me but i used they for consistency <3 i’m also just making this a non-transphobic 2011 au 💀 lawlight calls naoto they from the start cuz they’re a woke family ig

#death note #light yagami #l lawliet #lawlight #persona 4 golden #persona 4 #death note au #naoto shirogane #a family of offputting autistic queer genius detectives <3 #naoto would be happier and more confident in this au #their dads love them and are so proud of them

Starting to realise that two of my fandoms may merge next year when Supernatural and Sandman collide in Dead Boy Detectives.

The ghost of Steve Yockey has returned to join Neil Gaiman on a Sandman Adjacent series full of Supernatural style investigation AND its gonna be SO queer.

Yeah Neil is right Tumblr is gonna LOVE this show.

#dead boy detectives #supernatural #the sandman #steve yockey #neil gaiman #(still find it super funny that spn fandom killed steve yockey btw)#but his ghost is still working hard on new queer media #absolute king that he is
