Also going off the post I had a looooong response to about why people say Demyx is a cinnamon roll, because I’m still thinking about it

like… people don’t, for the most part. I personally (on my main) have used the tag “he’s awful and I love him”/ “you’re terrible and I love you” for him a couple times. 

you can definitely love someone and recognize their flaws, you know?

and some of it is also just that he’s in each game he’s been in for like 5 minutes; Axel fans get a LOT of Axel/Lea content, and there’s just… so little for Demyx (and fanworks help, but it feels like there’s even less content available to you if you’re not really into the ships he’s involved in)

so like “precious” is perhaps used entirely differently than it would be in “aww how precious” XD
