🆘 – Have you ever had to go to rescue S/I? Have they ever had to rescue you?
You will not be surprised to learn that dear Harry gets himself into trouble nigh constantly. I must confess that sometimes I’ll just pick him up like a kitten by the scruff of his neck and haul him out of the thick of it. He’s far from useless in a fight of course, and I do trust him to watch my back.
😈 – What bastard things have you done in the name of S/I?
Hmmm, well, I suppose the ‘worst’ thing I’ve done explicitly for them is betray the entirety of my race and start a civil war, but a lot of people would probably call that one a ‘net good’.
There’s been a not insignificant amount of murder and torture, does that count? ^_^
💣 – What was your WOW moment where you realized that S/I was the one?
Let’s keep the full details a bit of a secret, hmm? ^^ but there was a moment when I realized that despite being another expendable mage, I wanted to save their life. That was the beginning of the end. V_V
Yes pro shipping is often a very healthy coping skill but also normalize telling people that’s none of their business.
Like smoking/vaping isn’t healthy but do you go up to folks smoking and lecture them about the health effects?
Americanized Chinese buffets aren’t healthy but you don’t go up to people, screaming and threatening them for going back for seconds, thirds, etc.
Keeping your nose out of why someone is doing something and not lecturing them about their health is part of polite social interaction.
You are not entitled to my reasons for doing anything. If you would not go up to someone who is doing something unhealthy and lecture them IRL, then you should know better than to do it online.
TL:dr; antis mind your business.
Either all fiction is reality or none of it is, you don’t get to arbitrarily pick and choose based on what you do and do not like
if you claim that sexualizing fictional children is the same as, or causes, sexualization of real children then you must also believe that violence against fictional character is the same as or causes violence against real people.
Same goes for furries, too.
