Yes, yes, yes! Someone has finally said it! ๐๐ป๐๐ป๐๐ป
Umm,,, who said that poppy x cas is now poppy x cas x kieran? Their love for kieran is not the same as the love they have for each other ๐ญ how many more times do they have say this? Just because they are joined now doesn't mean that they are in a poly relationship (which is okay if they are but they're not). The atlantians had joined wolven and mortals far before poppy was even born and Jen never said they all were in poly relationships. Why do the rules change now? Because it's poppy and she can't have sex without being in love with someone? Why are you guys being hypocrites?
LOOK AT THIS FLAWLESS TRANSITION!!!

after perusing twitter for a bit, i have stuff to say so have some more twotq content.
what we're not gonna do is be fucking racist because you don't like the joining. if you can't criticize it without using slurs, then shut your goddamn mouth.
what we're also not gonna do is twist canon around.
the joining was always implied to have sexual undertones. it just was. it was set up that drinking blood from someone can be a sexual experience.
casteel and keiran are basically soulmates. casteel trusts keiran with poppy. he always has. this idea that he walk cucked or betrayed is fucking stupid and degrading to their relationship.
poppy, cas, and keiran have been in sexual situations together.
keiran heard cas finger poppy in the forest, the night of the wedding, when poppy woke up from her assention. their dynamic has never not had at least touches of sexuality in it. it's simply a fact.
i mentioned it in another post but i really think that these ideas of monogamy as the only true form of love that are so ingrained in our society are really what's pushing this victimization of cas and it's fucking ridiculous.
all three of them wanted it, and their dynamic really didn't change afterwards.
a giant portion of the fandom is just blowing this so far out of proportion. it would be funny if it wasn't so frustrating.

TWOTQ SPOILERS:
If you are worried about the joining please read the book first.
See for yourselves. Donโt listen to the other reviews about it.
Once you do you will see many things wrong with everyone complaining about the joining happening.
1. Kieran and Poppy were not a thing before they got Casteel. Kieran would comfort Poppy not flirt with her. He is affectionate towards her because that is his best friend/ ex bonded partners wife and heart mate. Because of those things he loves her in his own way. I do not personally think that it is sexually romantic. It is more that he loves her in a respectful awe inspiring way. They have a respect and love for each other through Casteel. Maybe because Casteel and Kieran were once bonded there is some connection to why poppy and Kieran feel so loyal to each other.
2. They did the joining out of ๏ฟผnecessity to keep Kieran alive. Did you all miss that? They did it for Kieran. While having the conversation poppy said that if Kieran found someone he wanted to be with they would go through the joining again. Which I think is foreshadowing Kieran finding someone he will end up with.
3. After the joining is done and they all separate we see that Poppy and Casteel have their own room without Kieran. They do things without Kieran. If they were going to be a throuple donโt you think that theyโd invite him? If JLA wanted them to be a throuple she would have had them fuck again?
4. Yes we do see Kieran have feelings for Poppy afterward. We donโt know if they will escalate. We donโt know if they are carnal feelings. He could just simply be in awe of his queen/primal. I personally cannot see them being sexual. Just because they fucked during the joining doesnโt mean they will again.
5. Kieran Poppy and Casteel have cuddled before. You guys are making a friendship sexual when it doesnโt need to be. Like the 3 of them needed each other before the whole ending and thatโs what happened. Also if they wanted to fuck again they would have then but Kieran told everyone to go the fuck to sleep.
6. Casteel and Poppy are heartmates so it goes way deeper and it means way more then anything else. I do not see JLA making Poppycas into a throuple Iโm sorry.
7. JLA Literally wrote about the joining for the past two books and you didnโt see it coming? Like she even brought up a 3some in Willaโs diary. Everything JLA writes has a purpose. You look back in FBAA and you can see everything has lead up to this moment. And even the ending of this book.
If you stop reading the series go ahead. No one is making you read these books. JLA is the writer and she can do what she wants itโs literally her world.
What isnโt okay is taking away her creative freedom and making petitions to get her to rewrite a story she doesnโt have to write. She literally could have said fuck you all and killed Casteel to make room for Kieran but she didnโt.
what do you mean i didn't reach out i literally thought about you the whole time
