Good morning! I’m salty.
I think we, as a general community, need to start taking this little moment more seriously.
This, right here? This is asking for consent. It’s a legal necessity, yes, but it is also you, the reader, actively consenting to see adult content; and in doing so, saying that you are of an age to see it, and that you’re emotionally capable of handling it.
You find the content you find behind this warning disgusting, horrifying, upsetting, triggering? You consented. You said you could handle it, and you were able to back out at any time. You take responsibility for yourself when you click through this, and so long as the creator used warnings and tags correctly, you bear full responsibility for its impact on you.
“Children are going to lie about their age” is probably true, but that’s the problem of them and the people who are responsible for them, not the people that they lie to.
If you’re not prepared to see adult content, created by and for adults, don’t fucking click through this. And if you do, for all that’s holy, don’t blame anyone else for it.
ok while i wouldn’t mind a alina corruption arc what i rly want is a half domesticated aleks w a slightly more nuanced alina. i don’t want them to take over the world but i do want them to form a government in which they actively plan a role in and which focuses on ensuring that the actual problem is solved. this is what i want instead of a “oh aleks bad bc he lied to me and he must be evil bc he wants for freedom for grisha which ofc means he’s just being power hungry so let me go on a mission to kill him without solving the problem and then let my just retire to a bloody farm— still without solving the problem because that’s so perfect” alina and co storyline. like cmon i’m not asking for much and i’m literally just improving what happened soooo...

Me: given Alex's past experiences it's appropriate and healthy that her and Darlington's relationship focuses on trust and emotional intimacy before diving into physical intimacy, and restraint also represents Darlington fighting for his human nature over his demon nature, etc
Also me: Let 👏 them 👏 kiss 👏
