I guess I need more practice?

I dunno.

I feel like this is an. . .odd writing platform.

It's liberating in a way that no other platform I have participated in is, the sexual front.

But because of that, I lack the experience to write that stuff.

And I kind of shy away from writing the sexual stuff which appeals to me, out of a fear of ruining other's fun, or being ridiculed for redundancy in that department.

And I guess to compensate, I played up the violent bits, which I can actually write okay, because I more or less know how to set a scene, and basically little else.

That.

I'm kind of a cuddly person in real life?

So I guess that's kinda what drew me here in the first place.

Like, 60% of the monsters in the wiki would be literal cuddle monsters in a g rated context.

It's that lovey dovey.

And kenkou's "creator's backsies" as I call it, implicate even more of them being like that.

(Okay this is getting long, so I've gone back and bolded alternating lines to make this a bit easier to read.)

Anyway, I really liked this concept, of sorta just being accepted in a nice way if you were nice, and it just kind of took over some of my responses, y'know?

Because I actually really don't like tragic suffering, the kind of stuff that happens when people don't do the smart thing like talk it out or the aggressive party doesn't see reason.

(See, Hamlet, Romeo & Juliet, and scp 1609)

So I made characters who don't give up, who do the violent things they do because they have no choice, or because they're purely irredeemable, or they're damaged on the inside.

And I made characters who always get their happy ending easily, because life doesn't let everybody do that.

This is a fantasy world, and it's about escapism, it's about getting away from realistic stuff, and having some fun, or something like that.

But that doesn't mean you're any less correct. I messed up, stayed sloppy, refused to learn, and made some shitty stories, and ruined some of your fun anyway.

I was writing stories for me, and I left others by the wayside, plain and simple.

I've offended you, and I sincerely apoligize.
