@spiderrobotpig Am neurotypical and had the same challenge - it was too much of an emotionally exhausting barrage. I decided to take it at face value and always play my cards close to the chest unless I'm in a public space where I'm sure I can win and discredit the ideas being presented.
@flourish omg my feelings... !!! :sob:
@spiderrobotpig Poe's Law is super real in 2017
@BrodyBr 90 hours, 43 minutes
@DylanEHoover Something I've seen ~the youth~ do on tumblr when faced with a problem like this is write something like
"Concept: Crossover fanfiction of Asriel and Spider Jerusalem in a room together"
and then wait for another writer or every reader's imagination to do the work.
Let us take on the vernacular of INTERNET TEENS
@DylanEHoover OR BOTH! Yes, possibly both.
@kb omg so much magic awaits you I'm so happy for you
@DylanEHoover This is not related but can you imagine Asriel and Spider Jerusalem in a room together
@tindall Living the dream!
@BrodyBr I highly recommend that you give it a shot - P5 is finally out and it's a masterpiece that's worth a shot. (I got it early and have played all the way through. I'm sure you've seen.) Though the flow is similar, I think that they've found a foothold and handled it in a way that feels more, well, flowing
@lanodan_tmp Gay ace - if any discoursers come after this post please lmk and I'll rekk them for you :cake:
@BrodyBr Would love to hear about that idea some time! Have you played P4 or P5? I think you will have the same issue but the dungeons are way more dynamic and relevant to the narrative. Tartarus always annoyed me/felt too distinct from my experience in the "real world" of the game [dodges rotten tomatoes]
@ikea_femme Someone I followed on some media a while ago wrote about seeing a beautiful woman on a train who she could read as trans because of her own experience with "tells"- obviously she didn't say anything, but she wrote about how inspiring and beautiful this woman is with her style and confidence - Her writing conveyed power and beauty in that unspoken possibly mutual knowing. It's most certainly not my lane to declare, but I hope that's a compassionate lens to share
@ikea_femme I read my doctor as trans and felt really guilty about it - I found out in passing that she is cisgendered in a very specific, definitive way, and ended up super stoked that it turns out wrong reads are possible so individual perceptions aren't weighed down by so much responsibility and duty.
I realize that's a super individual experience and that I probably am not as skilled of a reader but I hope it helps a little.
@mikejw You can tell her that we are kind but in the end her own boundaries regarding her personal comfort level are what matter most
@takaeri My girlfriend was going to be a mod on the P5 subreddit until she admitted that she had every plan to carry out the Gay Agenda: Every Single Videogame Character Must Be A Lesbian -- they modded a TiA poster instead.
You have warmed my heart.
@tripofmice One of my life's goals is to have a cat who sits on my lap while I play the keyboards. Your progression is admirable.
@flourish I am not but I respect your passion and believe that you will carve out a beautiful space for your boy band trash kin
@polymerwitch I sent you a friend who will arrive at your ports when he gets off work. I trust that he will be as enthralled as I am
@morganastra Yet another... instance... in which Oakland must take back Oakland
