I Think That A Lot Of The Time People Forget That All Of Contestants In Gen1 Are Kids For The Majority

I think that a lot of the time people forget that all of contestants in gen1 are kids for the majority of the seasons they’re in. They were all only 16 in the start of TDI and 17 in TDWT (with possible exceptions bc of the months they were born in but still!)

They’re gonna be immature, they’re gonna not be the best at navigating platonic or romantic relationships (NOT defending the cheating thing). And some of you guys reprimand and demonize them like they’re fully grown adults. The human brain doesn’t finish growing until 25 for Pete’s sake!

I’m not saying don’t reprimand them at all for anything just cut them some slack they’re still learning how to be humans

Finally had time to make some actual significant progress on chapter 3 of my fic for the first time in weeks (seriously I jinxed myself so hard when I said my life was getting less chaotic and I’d be able to get out chapters faster) and ahh It’ll take me at least another day from now, probably a couple because I’m celebrating new years with my family.

But yeah I’m super excited for you guys to see it! Things are really ramping up plot wise this chapter :)
