Shouldn't matter if the person is glamoured or has taken a fantasia. The end result is the same: appearances get changed. If the end result gets accepted why should the means matter?
Thats like me getting mad at restaurant for giving me the exact same burger that looks and tastes the same but is prepared with a different cooking method each time. Still tastes good. End result is the same. Num.
Using your example, sure the end result is the same. But if that method of cooking affected you in a negative way, like say....slamming your face on the table and using your cheeks as a makeshift plate or skillet, you wouldnt be too happy with that method of cooking, even if it did bring you to the same result.
Its essentially the same with Rp. By doing something that blatantly requires everyone else around you to just be like "Oh ok no probs" or "Thas cool" or anything other than freaking the Hell out after you effectively shattered their world with your complete altering of their understanding of it, then its not completely mind blowing to be met with some kind of resistance. The entire issue of lore aside, if you applied the exact same thing in real life the results would probably be the same.
Your best friend is now a dog. How!? Wtf happened!? "Oh, I was captured by aliens."
See how that might make someones head explode?
If someone wanted a character change that badly but couldnt be bothered to like think of a reasonable way or at least believable story for how said change happened then its not a BAD thing, but its not really fair to expect people who knew your character before or an established way of how you RP to want to be around it any longer either.
Also this is not aimed at anyone in a negative light, just wanted to respond to the post.
