BI LAUNCHPAD Iwas struggling with coming out as Bisenual at the same time I was working on Ducktales. Igave myself so much ansiety trying to figure out what it meant to be BL But then at work, when we would talk abour Launchpad and his love Iife, it seemed so simple. LP just has so much love in him, that of course he's not only romanticaly atracted to one gender. K's a simplicity I wish we could see on our screens way, way more. I hope in the future, I can help people like me accept themselves more readly, with more characters like LP. SAM KING @SamanthaCKing
