After thinking over and rereading it, I think…it was really powerful. I was trying to figure out why this particular post instantly struck all of us as needing a content warning when I read a couple other posts that went on those same subjects heck I’ve written some of them! I think…1. The group, it’s pretty large and harder to gauge age/maturity range, I wrote my posts in a much more edgy-dark character castle with only a couple other people who all tapped on similar subjects to a degree and had already adjusted and had an established comfort-zone. 2. The characters who were involved in those topics had already been well-established as characters who would be most likely to have experienced something like that. 3. It was hinted at well before actually being confirmed.

I’ve still needed to start putting content warning tho for some stuff but anyway…I’m mostly just thinking outloud lol XD

It wasn’t too shocking to me coz I already knew your current WIP dealt with that material and in that context it fit fairly well. On the other hand, the shock-effect and how sudden Ku’s backstory was is a powerful literary technique I think you could really pull that off because that is a subject people should be all at once suddenly shocked and appalled by. Having it so sudden could really add impact to your themes depending on how you handle it so that’s not necessarily bad and that exact same post would probably be very powerful targeting the right audience, I think the only problem really is there’s such a wide variety of people in this particular castle that you can’t really get a “target audience”

Anyway…*awkwardness* Peace out? <3
