I desperately need to work but instead I’m writing essays to myself about the way farscape framed the sexual undertones of John and Scorpius’ relationship but in my defense it does make me insane
#well it’s deeply homophobic. it drives me insane. but it’s deeply homophobic#because like. scorpy? the way that he write him as like gay is giving hayes code#it’s just another aspect that makes him predatory. it’s part of what makes him different from crais! because crais just wants to kill john#scorpius just WANTS John. and sure it’s ostensibly for the wormhole knowledge but the way he’s lovin touchin squeezin john he’s ALWAYS#touching John. there’s the hug in latp but he’s always touching johns head specifically? the insanity.#anyway. where was I. anyway. so there’s the constant touching. and the ambiguity of just what scorpius will do and he literally implanted#john with his seed. because you know. Harvey. and brother I could go off on a whole thing about Harvey here but let it be said that Harvey#is insane.#so we got all that. but scorpy is not the one that turns this into text#because it’s ALWAYS john. ITS ALWAYS JOHN THAT MAKES IT INTO EXPLICITLY SEXUAL/RELATIONSHIP TERMS#it’s over scorpy find a new girlfriend. insert the rod John / you’re really not my type. he only loves me for my mind#and I think part of that is the character of John like making a joke about it because if he doesn’t then it’s too real if it’s a joke than#he can put some distance between him and it and I think part of that is the WRITERS doing it#oh look at how irreverent john is. scorpius has him pinned down and is saying shit like ‘if I’m screwed than things are going to get very#ugly’ and johns just blowing him a kiss.#and the scarren blood vow. anyway. I’m normal
