Long time stewing "Water Wife Headcanon Inbreeding" Rant that I need to get off my chest. This has been honestly hurting me for a while.
I love Penelope. I've loved her since I first got into the fandom, and I've spent so many hours plotting out her life, her family, her feelings, her character, her lore, researching her. And I wanted to share because I was excited, and fandom is community about sharing and creating together. I'm always very thankful for the love and support and compliments my Penelope gets and how kind people are to me. It means so much that people love her too. I'm definitely gonna keep thinking about her and love her to bits.
However!
She's gotten so big and so popular that in some ways, she doesn't even feel like MINE anymore. And that's honestly been...A very strange and very saddening feeling for me. It feels like idk, if I were to show a few friends or a small group of people "Water Wife" only to suddenly see within a few months she's everywhere on billboards.
