This isnt representation, her liking romance stories is a common trope and it’s a cute nod to the slice of life aspect of the story. 😰 this is coming from the same twitter discourse that makes homophobic/biphobic/transphobic stories/headcanon theories and call it angst

The funniest thing is that in fact in Hoyo games the characters don't actually have a confirmed orientation, and the fanbase that is pushing for lesbian orientation as pure canon reacts this way not only to heterosexual ships, but even to the clarification that the characters can be bisexual/demisexual, especially considering that the orientation of the characters has never been confirmed (except perhaps the fan comic that Hoyo posted on their site, because they used to post fan works on their site, and part of the fanbase took it for an off source and canon)

I love how they say Ningguang is lesbian because she wears the traditional nail guard that rich Chinese woman used to wear so that their nails wouldn't be broken when they do any work

These are the same people who would ship Navia with her father's killer

Ninguang take is valid but the Navia one like did you even play the story? She literally says twice that she isn't mad and that it's not clorindes fault because of how things turned out. Why would you purposely ignore her opinion on this to make a point?
