Hi friends! Since there seems to be some confusion, I’m going to explain what’s happening here as an English teacher!
This clip features a storytelling tool called a “soliloquy” which is when a character speaks directly to the audience & the other characters cannot hear them. 🧵
Okay, I’m gonna put my two cents in. Hazbin Hotel does not “romanticize” r*pe.
Val and Angel’s story is loosely based on real life people’s trauma. Real life people have gone through similar things Angel has gone through. If people relate to it and find comfort in it because it makes them feel less alone in their trauma, HOW DARE YOU INVALIDATE THE WAYS PEOPLE COPE WITH THEIR TRAUMA? Fiction is fiction and also an escape for many people. Let’s all stop fighting and enjoy the show 💖
I attended Sam Haft’s panel at Twin Cities Con, and he said he was an SA survivor. The whole room went silent. He co-wrote poison using his own experiences, so please, you don’t know what people go through! Not to mention that Val was based on one of Viv’s toxic exes!
I’m so close to putting my 2 weeks in without having a job lined up for me in the new town I’m moving to bc I’m so done with this disrespect. I asked MONTHS in advance for my birthday off and I don’t ask for much, I literally do anything they ask me wtf
#YumiCon2024 was an absolute blast! Me and Tyler had so much fun at our very first con! My favorite part of it was when we meet the VA for Emira and Loona, I even got a picture with her! Can’t wait for the next con I attend🫶
