[@YingofDarkness]

@@hopoffmydick9574 Its just the opposites attract trope taken to the extreme. Plus everyone likes the bad boy and will make 100+ excuses as to why, what he did as a bad guy does not make him a horrible person...

[@drawingsticks5333]

@@hopoffmydick9574 It depends. Some people do like the toxic and unhealty relationship aspect, other like the enemies-to friends-to lovers with probably a redemption arc thrown in. It's fun in fiction.

[@bandotaku]

@@hopoffmydick9574 It's the dismantling of assumptions. Each of them have assumptions about the other based on things they've seen or heard, but when they get to know each other and realize they have more in common than they thought, romance ensues. Or, one of my favorites, is the competitive nature turned to love. Two people always trying to outdo the other in competition and that turns into a rivalry, then respect, then love.

Eugene's the guy who doesn't care about anyone and anything. Throughout the story he is just about survival. And then he meets these three guys he need to pair with to survive. And as story goes, even after constantly keeping himself apart and try not to get attached, he starts to care about them and as the time comes to end the suffering at last through a final sacrifice he jumps in and does it, not giving the others any choice. To save this family he has found. 😭😭😭 you can't tell me Eugene isn't the best character for the sacrifice arc.

Redemption arcs CAN happen to good characters! Aang from Avatar the Last Airbender went through one. He wasn’t evil, but made a wrong choice in a moment of weakness and ran away from his responsability to save the world, leaving his home to suffer 100 years of war. And he grows to assume said responsability through personal growth 🤗 But obviously, a redemption has a bigger impact when it’s a villain-ish character growing and getting better (ZUKO).

[@yialee8722]

I love Avatar! I love that you could flip the whole series and tell it from Zuko's point of view--just as deep and meaningful as Aang's. That's storytelling done right.

[@chaikristinjournals]

Ye Lee wow yeah, I’ve never thought about avatar like that!

[@christalcavanaugh]

Well and the opposite is the same. Iroh switched sides but he was never a villain. (At least after his son died) all he wanted was to be friends with everyone even though he was on the side of the fire nation and helping Zuko

[@dennysdonuts4918]

It's kind of like a redemption arc mixed with a Choosen One trope, because, yes, he made the wrong choice, but he was like, 10! He had to go on a journey, but a large part of that journey was to fix his mistake and beat the Fire Nation. It's not totally his fault in my opinion because they expected a literal child to protect them, but I do get your point.

He is a whirlwind. Zach is the uncle who practically lives with you. Kind of eccentric but super cool and introduces you to the best music. Eugene is the slightly distant and way too cool but ultimately best older brother ever. At the end he says something really insightful and caring that fixes your emotional arc.

Eugene is the the Marshall Lee (Marceline) we all deserve!!! As soon as he described the monster family, it was the first thing that came to mind, for me!!!

Zach saying "After all this time, ... Always" , priceless :D

I REALLY wanted Eugene to put “Eugene + Eugene” for the enemies to lovers trope because: 1. It was the only pairing with Eugene that hadn’t been said and it would’ve been really funny 2. Eugene really has gone from being his own enemy with looking down on himself and feeling as if he is not worthy of all the love he deserves, to slowly realizing how amazing he is, not worrying about the judgement of others, and instead learning how to love himself because he really is worth all the love in the world

the fact that Ned knows his YA makes me love him even more. and also mentioning Jace from "mortal instruments" meaning he referenced book Jace instead of the CW Jace??? we stan.
