"Erm- Actually, Frisk Is A Child In Game As Everyone Refers To Them As 'kid' "

"Erm- actually, Frisk is a child in game as everyone refers to them as 'kid' ☝️🤓"

Erm- actually, I refer to my own father as "child" and otherwise at times, it is not making him any younger ☝️🤓

Erm- actually, in Lady and the Tramp, Tramp has referred to Lady as "kid" in a taunting matter and I think we can both agree they are a beloved mutual adult couple ☝️🤓

Erm- actually, Jax calls Pomni "kid" in the series and Pomni is canonically older than him, they are both confirmed adults ☝️🤓

Erm- actually, Barnaby calls Wally "kiddo" and they're both confirmed to be adults around the same age who are also shipped by many in a very non-problematic way ☝️🤓

Erm- actually, JD in Heathers calls his dad "son", as his dad calls his son "dad", it is family banter and does not mean JD, who is younger, is the father of his biological dad, who is older ☝️🤓

Erm- actually, Beast Boy in Teen Titans Go specifically (the kiddie version) calls most if not all women "mama", including romantic love interests, and that does not make it incestuous ☝️🤓

Erm- actually, the parents in The Willoughbys call eachother "father" and "mother" respectively (context from watching the movie makes it better), and I'm pretty sure they don't see eachother as eachothers parents ☝️🤓

@corpseacoast please please please direct or straight up write a fanfic based on Digital Circus please. Of course I'm joking on you actually being pressured to write one but I would pay to see what you'd come up with if you did. You have such a fun take of these characters and I genuinely feel like you could write a killer dark comedy fanfic. You're so creatively in tune with these characters and it makes me happy. God bless you. I get giddy

God blessith my saviour. He will be kicked under my bed and forgotten but I love all me plushies and will always hold room for moore

Writing pet peeve

I do not like it when we are seeing the POV of a character, and a character talks about an arguably completely okay and normal part of their life and goes "I know. Its like. So weird. But that's my family. And, like, it's not gross either. It's normal to us but like. So weird. The first thing I have to tell people is that it's not weird". And I just. I just. ???????????

The authors intent is to bring this character/ group specific characteristic, normalise it, but then treats it abnormal and makes the audience question if it's normal because that seed of doubt is planted in their head???? That's a complete contradiction

It's different if a one-off situation occurs that's *natural* and its brought up in the story. Two characters have opposing views and struggle to understand the other

But why would the author straight up tell you it could be weird, like so weird, but this is different. This isn't weird. Okay. Then what is the weird version??????

You know, I love exploring families in stories. I love seeing unique relationships in stories. I love exploring things that I may not normally do with my friends but is still "normal" by the stand point of others. We all do things that are normal to use, completely freaking weird to another. That's in itself is normal, to not hold the same values, habits and traditions. So why are we getting so characteristic specific and completely going against the idea that it's normal to be different??

Your an author. You have power. The reader hangs onto each and every individual word. You let them inside your head, your interests and ideal are reflected on each sentence you construct one way or another

So why you making the audience's mind wander and wonder what the weird version is like and why this is not the "weird version"?????

Some people kiss their family on the lips, from mother, father, brother, sister, daughter, son, uncle, aunt, cousins, and that's normal. Some people do lock their houses every time they leave or return home. Some people are comfortable enough to be naked or snuggling with their closest friends or even family. Some people are raised to know how to use a knife- or some other fighting form of self defence. Some people tell their parents absolutely everything- including if they had sex for the first time- some people tell their parents nothing. Some people believe eating meat is wrong. Some people believe yoga is a necessity for a healthy spiritual balance. Some people believe you should mature faster. Some people believe in no sex before marriage. Some people believe tattoos hold values. Some people prefer the country life.

So why are we doing the opposite of normalization and instead planting the seed of doubt???? Why are you so obviously trying to normalise but then completely failing????

I have a passion. This is a thorn in my side.
