"Wow people just know how to ruin fandoms these days"
Has to be the one statement that makes my blood boil because it is always, and I mean ALWAYS under queer ship posts. Like please grow tf up because in all honesty if these ships are bothering you I don't think it's "people in fandoms these days" it's a YOU issue.
"But they're like brothers"
"So men can't be friends anymore?"
It was never said these characters had to stop being friends but if in some people's interpretations they might view these characters as a little more than friends and this happens in all types of media *cough cough* THE COUPLE THAT HAD SO MUCH POTENTIAL BUT NEVER BECAME CANON* (usually straight ships) *cough cough*. It's the exact same thing just now we have two people of the same gender. See them as brothers/sisters, see them as best pals. That's how YOU interrupt the relationship. STOP FORCING YOUR THOUGHTS ONTO EVERYONE WHETHER IT BE CANON OR NOT
Furthermore the way you treat shipping is a clear show of how long you've been on the internet because if it bothers you so GODDAMN MUCH that two characters of the same gender are being shipped you obviously haven't been here for a long time have you?
Shipping is a fun activity and something lighthearted it's genuinely crazy that some people have whole wars over 2 harmless ships.
Please grow up fr. You're not going to die because two characters you see as besties are holding hands and blushing in a piece of fanart just scroll away honestly it's not that hard man...

Jegulus in the background: I'm sorry I lightly grazed Miss Riley's left tit-
I came up with these based off my friends
Peter: Massive gossip girl. Will disappear for HOURS as wormtail listening in on people's conversations to burst into the dorm and go "GUYS YOU'LL NEVER BELIEVE WHAT I JUST HEARD". Enjoys hanging out with the girls because they appreciate his gossip.
Sirius: Sometimes just lies because he's bored. Like he'll walk up to like Lily randomly and say something like "I find James the hottest out of all my friends" and he has such a good poker face most people don't know if he's kidding or not
Remus: Says he only reads books for intellectuals but in reality half the time he's reading cheesy romance books, which some how bring him to tears every time he does
James: Cannot be trusted to play music at all. If he had a playlist it would go from playing Moonage Daydream by David Bowie to Hollerback Girl by Gwen Stefani to Washing Machine Heart by Mitski in under 10 minutes. He doesn't see the problem with his music taste
