... Man I feel like whoever designed the model for Libra was getting really into it, but had to be told to ease off on the crotch because on one hand, that is a highly detailed crotch, but on the other hand, I feel like they also had to put some restraint before it got TOO detailed.

(wip) deep in the problematic merchless rarepair dead fandom hell mines. dying of toxic gas fumes [ mohg / miquella ]
#boharts

screenshort of an illustration in progress for a heart-shaped sticker or charm of Mohg and Miquella from Elden Ring. Miquella is touching Mohg's horns gently and Mohg has partially wrapped his wings around them both.

I mean, he did end up getting taller. 😋
Also, despite being hyped as a safe haven for Albinaurics, the Haligtree is not very Albinauric Friendly.

Rykard? 😮

But yeah -- like... Another contributor is, imo, a lot of people projecting onto Miquella. So a lot of people were really put off about Miquella being the final boss.

As well as being a bit put off that he wanted to make ANOTHER half-brother as consort, using the body of the OTHER half-brother. 🙃

Kraken Guard @krakenguard.bsky.social · 1d

So honestly, it's like...

With Ansbach and Gideon, whatever your stance is on these two characters, they're both pretty much on the same page about Miquella being a danger.

Kraken Guard @krakenguard.bsky.social · 1d

And damn, like, even Gideon was on the fence about Miquella -- like there's a bit of dialogue where he suggested destroying the cocoon because he felt Miquella would have been THAT much of a danger, and crap! The guy was right! 😩

Ever since the DLC, I haven't heard that whole speech.

"My dear lord deserved better" still remains among one of those touching moments in Elden Ring, especially considering this is about a character who's been vitriolically hated. And is still kinda hated even now. 😩

Kraken Guard @krakenguard.bsky.social · 1d

I've seen some crazier takes out there too(Radahn groomed Miquella).

But yeah, the plot twists of the DLC are quite contested.

I've still got my own gripes, but I'll always treasure Ansbach. It just... Ahh!

Kraken Guard @krakenguard.bsky.social · 1d

Yeah and like, that's another thing that I feel is very greatly ignored by a very vast majority. 😩

Like I know I saw one take from someone saying Malenia marched off of her own accord without Miquella's input, and, like...

I mean that's THEIR interpretation. I just heavily disagree with it?

1

Kraken Guard @krakenguard.bsky.social · 1d

And people still say he had the right idea. 😒
Even the Miquella fans mirror some of the stuff the Griffith fans say - "He did nothing wrong!"

... And what's worse is they managed to sneak in Shou Tucker into the mix too - just substitute Nina and Alexander with Mohg and Radahn. 😩

1

Kraken Guard @krakenguard.bsky.social · 1d

Even without the jokes, there's still a lot of peeps that took the allegations as gospel. What's worse is the attitude they have toward peeps who actually bothered to hear Ansbach's side of the tale. 😟

"Lack of Media Literacy" and all that. 😒

1

Kraken Guard @krakenguard.bsky.social · 1d

God, and that was such a niche theory too -- like I know a few people that HAD brought that up prior to the DLC, but it kinda got poopoo'd by the majority of the fandom?

And then Ansbach enters the picture. 😋

Kraken Guard @krakenguard.bsky.social · 1d

It's hard to say whether it's misinterpretation or not, given what was revealed in the DLC(How much was Mohg influenced by the enchantment?). Though people are incredibly picky, if not outright gatekeeping when it comes to differing interpretations.

Kraken Guard @krakenguard.bsky.social · 1d

Man I keep forgetting about that crowd -- coming from someone who knows one of the leading ships on AO3 was Morgott/Tarnished. 😅

Kraken Guard @krakenguard.bsky.social · 1d

I think the four hottest runners for Mohg are Miquella, Varré, Morgott and Ansbach.

I kinda do feel like Ansbach is a bit hard to top(mmm, topping Ansbach 😏). But man, peeps really are sleeping on Mohg.

Imagine how romantic it'd be if he took you flying over Siofra. 😌

1

Kraken Guard @krakenguard.bsky.social · 1d

Couple reasons spring to mind - one of which being that a lot of peeps are still of the mind that he hasn't beaten "the allegations."

Second would be... Mmmmm... Canon Bias? Not sure if that'd be the term for it. 🤔 >

And this is just one guy doing an experiment, too.

Over half a million people using ChatGPT are showing signs of psychosis or mania in their chats every week, and a million dependent on the chatbot for interactions, and a million expressing suicidal themes.
