I love and hate Radiostatic

I wasn’t going to talk about Radiostatic, but the universe hates me and my brain won’t shut up about it, so here we are.

Let’s get this out of the way:

Alastor and Vox are a dysfunctional disaster, and that’s exactly why people ship them like their lives depend on it. Fine. Whatever.

But the more I watch Vox on screen, the more I feel uncomfortably called out.

Like… why does this neon TV demon have my entire emotional spectrum?

Why does he act like he’s over something when he absolutely is not?

Why is his version of “moving on” basically just throwing himself into work, ego, and aesthetics while quietly rotting inside?

Who allowed this?

Vox puts on this whole flashy, confident, electrified persona, but underneath it, he’s petty, bitter, jealous, and holding grudges like they’re collectibles.

And honestly?

Yeah. Same.

He wants control because he never had it.

He wants to be chosen but won’t admit it.

He wants to look unbothered while being extremely, violently bothered.

That’s…

unfortunately familiar.

So when people ship Radiostatic, it’s not even the ship that annoys me, it’s that I see Vox losing his mind over someone who doesn’t take him seriously, and I’m like:

Wow. That’s embarrassing.

Wow. That’s relatable.

Wow. I hate this.

Alastor treats feelings like background noise, and Vox is practically screaming for validation in 4K resolution.

Tell me why that dynamic feels like a personal attack.

So yeah, maybe I judge Radiostatic shippers (even though i am one sadly) because deep down, I get why Vox spirals.

I get the fixation.

I get the anger.

I get the “look at me, tell me I matter, pretend you don’t see me falling apart” energy.

And I hate that I get it.

Anyway, if you need me, I’ll be in the corner pretending I’m above all this while scrolling through Vox fanart like it owes me something.

I didn’t choose to relate to a glitchy demon with abandonment issues.

But here we are.
