With the wee bit of drama circulating around, I just wanted to clarify something to the individual who has got on some people’s asses over headcanoning villains as anything else besides white, cis and straight.
I headcanon Felix as a queer white passing métis trans demiboy. I do this because this is how I am and Felix has helped me out so much during my transition, basically saving my life. Yeah he’s a piece of shit and lots of people hate him, but there are others out there who rely on him in this way. For me, Felix is a positive figure in my life. He fucking loves himself and that is powerful when you view him as a trans dude. Being trans and loving yourself is so fucking hard and Felix loving himself and doing what is best for him is inspiring for me.
Now that I’m older and have a stable life, I think back on those shitty times where I was struggling with my identity and what I wanted to do with my life. Felix taught me that I can do whatever the fuck I want with my life and if someone or something gets in my way, cut them down and move on. I do what I want for me. I am the most important person in my life because it’s me. I deserve to be happy and comfortable in this shit hole of a world and I’m going to make the best of it for me.
I am a better person because of this. Headcanoning Felix this way isn’t bad. You shouldn’t attack people for headcanoning villains in a way you don’t like because you deem it “wrong” or “bad.” It is healthy for some people and guess what?
It’s all fucking fiction, so why the fuck does it matter!? Let people enjoy things the way they want to enjoy it! If it upsets you? Block it or whatever. Just get off of other people’s asses for enjoying something harmlessly.
