WTB Gender Equality for the KH Fandom

I realized I hadn't friended [livejournal.com profile] yashahime yet, so I do so and poke her LJ a bit. She wrote a Larxene/Namine fic (which was shiny btw ♥ ) and I read it and thought, you know. I would like more of that.

So... what's with the obsession with buttsex? Does someone have to have a dick in order to be written about? It makes me sad. I know I'm not one to talk, look at my writing journal right now and the first thing you'll see is a long list of drabbles mostly centering around gay. But I like boobs too! I know the girls are somewhat underwhelming compared to the sheer extent of gay that is Axel/Roxas and Sora/Riku, but there's plenty of fun pairings! They don't even have to be all girlsex -- het* would be great to see in this fandom.

* Where het is defined as "het that isn't Sora/Kairi written by thirteen-year-old girls."

I want to see more Sora/Namine! Kairi/Olette! Yuffie/Aerith! Fuu/Kairi... or Olette... or anyone really. It's kind of exhausting to read the same bad Axel/Roxas fic over and over again. Where has all our creativity gone and why do the girls get no love? If Kairi and Namine were both hot guys you know they'd have an active fan following.

Sigh.

Kind of reminds you of the olden days in Megami Kouhosei fan land, huh? *weeps for mankind*

.........I DID write this rant back in MK fandom, didn't I? ;__;

The more things change the more they stay the same.

Which is why I was way happy for that Rai/Kairi ficlet. :D

But man. Yeah. Pence/Olette would be great, too. And if I have to go the Hollow Bastion/Radiant Garden angle, Tifa/Aerith would be sweet.

Yes. ♥ I was thinking to myself, what Kairi pairings DO I like? [And since in my head Kairi's evidently something of a lesbian] Rai/Kairi was one of the few het pairings that received my total support. :3 THANKS TO YOU.

Tifa/Aerith WOULD be totally awesome, although Li-san has made me enjoy a sort of one-sided Yuffie/Aerith thing. But I confess that I am a Leon/Aerith shipper forever.

I made you enjoy?! XD It surprised me, too~! Blame Yuffie.

[identity profile] sorceressakemi.livejournal.com 2006-08-21 04:59 am (UTC)(link)
Yes! I was just thinking about this, actually. (I read that Larxene/Namine piece earlier and it made me gleeful.)

I was also thinking just the other day that I could really go for some Namine/Olette. I know I'll never, ever find it, though, so if I want some I'll probably have to do it myself.

I totally love NamiKai since Kairi's something of a lesbian in my head too, and have been meaning to draw some. Eee. :D

Kairi/Namine is so OTP and so precious~~ It's really just a very FEMININE pairing, they're so wonderful. If you draw them I would die. ♥

[identity profile] yashahime.livejournal.com 2006-08-21 01:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Well. My new OTP for KH fandom is Seifer/Namine. They are so totally EXACTLY what the other needs in life, it's ADORABLE.

Unfortunately, it is only coming to me as an epic don't-eat-Roxas AU. Or three, really. >.< Stupid bunnies, I don't DO epics!

[identity profile] kay-willow.livejournal.com 2006-08-21 02:29 pm (UTC)(link)
YES SEIFER/NAMINE WIN

I'm probably writing a longer fic about it myself. XD If I ever have time to write things other than drabbles again.

WOOHOO! GET OUT OF JAIL FREE CARD, SWEET!

[identity profile] sakusha.livejournal.com 2006-08-21 03:37 pm (UTC)(link)
But Kayyyyyy, girls are ickyyyyyyyy ew, who writes about them??? I am one? SHUT UP.

I wrote a Riku/Kairi drabble (er, it's a little OT3 flavored) for someone that might not suck, so if you want it's here (http://sakusha.livejournal.com/425524.html?thread=895796#t895796)

[identity profile] reversedhymnal.livejournal.com 2006-08-21 07:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, it's kind of impossible to break up that OT3, isn't it? XD That happened with my Riku/Kairi fic as well, ♥

Yeah, I was replaying the opening of KHII yesterday, and my brain kept going: HEY HEY, OLLETE AND FUU, YES HELLO?

My entire brain is mostly bisexual, and thus all of my muses are mostly bisexual. If you can get the right angle to make the pairing plausible, I'll take it.

i have this one Roxas/Sora, Kairi/Namine crappy!highschool!fic idea, that's pretty much eating at my brain so that soon there will be no resistance left and i will give in and write it, oh noes. ;_;

[identity profile] kay-willow.livejournal.com 2006-08-21 07:30 pm (UTC)(link)
OH NOES!! High school fic is the root of all evil! :\

I don't find sexuality to ever be a bar to pairings -- it's all the way they function together. For instance, Roxas/Namine is incest. If you write it as incest, or at least with an awareness of it, that makes it interesting. If you write it as fluffy bunny love and analogous to Sora/Kairi, that's not right. Not even right to the characters, seriously, die. But Riku/Namine or Sora/Namine [or Seifer/Namine *flees*] is gold.

*weird?*

[identity profile] reversedhymnal.livejournal.com 2006-08-21 09:53 pm (UTC)(link)
IT IS. ;_;

[*cries* that pairing wants me to finish VIII, just so that I can then know enough about Seifer to write it ALL THE TIME]

And yes, exactly. die die die

(Anonymous) 2007-08-13 10:05 am (UTC)(link)
Oh yeah oh yeah Seifer/Namine would seriously be GOLD.
I've always liked weird pairings. Axel/Fuu XD Olette/Kairi which is not that unusual in fact. RaiRiku. Or wth. If it's made w/ humour it's even more fun ^^

[identity profile] yami-chan.livejournal.com 2006-09-11 01:49 pm (UTC)(link)
This is me catching up on flist now that I have a working computer again!

*coughs* Anyway, I totally agree with you about the lack of lesbian pairings. Sadly it’s not just KH. But I’ve always thought that the reason for lack of yuri was because the majority of fangirls are projecting when they write.

I've always loved Aerith/Tifa (ever since FF7). It's so underrated. Namine/Kairi, though I can see, bugs me in the same way Sora/Roxas bugs me. But that's all right, because Kairi/Sora/Riku is so my OT3! Do I find much of it? No. ._. Can’t find any good Saix/Xemnas either... But I was never surprised by that. ^^;;;;

So true.

I was just walkin' around, and I saw this post. And I HAVE TO comment becuz I tkink the same way.
I'm a girl, yep, a stupid chick. A fangirl, too. Not brainless, I fangirl w/ a lot of intelligence, I swear. I like both famous pairing and unusual ones. But that's not the point. No, the point is that YURI PAIRINGS should have more fandom. More love for the lesbos. I'm bi, well, bicurious or whatever you want it doesn't matter --we shouldn't classify our love, anyone can fall in love w/ a boy or a girl, it can happen and that's what so cool about love--. I love yaoi, ok. But yuri is even better to me. NamiKai, that's beautiful. Larxene x anyone, Olette, too. Why don't they have more fandom ? Why are girls so off ? It's sexism. Girls are unloved. Even girls get sexist in this sexist world. Guyz won't say no no, this world's not sexist anymore, but gurls can understand. Cuz even I get sexist sometimes. Isn't it ridiculous ?
Anyway, I'm annoyed by the lack of yuri pairings. Oh, not the hentai-like ones, the ones that are still sexist --even if I love hentai and this kind of stuff--, I'm searchin' for sensible pairings. Girls in love w/ girls and if there's sex, it's w/ alot of LOVE.
WHY DO THE GIRLS GET NO LOVE ?!
Why?...

Sorry if I hurt anyone, I didn't mean it. Really.

And I'm french --it's my way to appologize 'bout the mistakes I made if I made some--. lol.
