Carry on.
That's understandable. But it's also not wrong for people to be uncomfortable with sexual/romantic situations involving lalafel. and we should respect an individual's preferences once they've been made clear.Â
Also wanted to add that a friend of mine, Ja'ren, brought up the good idea of including "No romance rp" in the search info of characters trying to avoid these situations. I don't know how I feel about those kinds of measures even being necessary but considering it could result in someone having a more comfortable rp experience I think it's worth saying.
Was I the only one that was like "WTFFFFFF?" in the mogmail mission involving the midlander and Miss Quicksand lala?
No, I won't lie and say I didn't purse my lips when first presented with the situation. But I can't say it's wrong either. Miss Momodi was an adult. Culturally speaking lalafel are seen as adults, even though I myself cannot equate them as such physically speaking, and thus am uncomfortable with being involved with any romantic rp involving them. Not my thing, but as long as minors are not involved I really can't say anything. As long as you're rping an adult capable of consent I can't judge someone who rps romantic or sexual situations with their lalafel characters, you do you and whatnot.Â
Somewhere someone has a very powerful infatuation with bologna. Now I don't like bologna and the idea of it as an object of sexual fixation both confuses and appalls. But as long as this person doesn't push it on me or anyone else without their consent, they can follow their mystery meat dreams as far as I'm concerned.Â
Actually puts me in a strange position roleplay wise when it comes to a character employing dancers of all different races. IC lore-wise there's really no reason why a lalafel wouldn't be a part of that troupe. But OOC I just am not comfortable portraying it which leaves me at a loss. I skirt around the issue best I can, though.
