I have no stake in this, but the writers said it’s a lot more complicated than unrequited, and there’s an obvious censored kiss between them in one of those recent episodes.

Awwww! (Wait, censored? That’s a bit disappointing. I take it the distributors rather than the animators did that.)

Like, I have no stake in SU fandom whatsoever really, and Pearl was super obviously in love with Rose and is almost certainly never going to fall for Mayor Dewey and I’d be disappointed if she did, but the amount of hate I’ve seen leveled against people for saying nothing more then “I want this queer character to be like me! [bi, pan, in a relationship with someone who…okay I dunno what the attraction is re: Dewey but let’s go with that!]” is kind of unnerving. Like, really nasty stuff. Brrr.

Me personally I think Pearl’s gay, but if you (er, general ‘you’) want her to be bi, you go do that! Who I am to stop you? Emotions always fly high when people want a character to be Like Them, because no character can be Like Everyone. Which is where the problem arises I guess…
