    Why do people feel the need to be so aggressively dismissive? It doesn't matter if it affects me or not, that's not even part of the discussion.

    This is rich coming from someone who resorted to aggressively dismissing something another person said. Why not just go straight to the "U MAD BRO" comment? I don't see anyone being angry about it. I see people reading more into it than there is, which is perfectly fine for a story like this, and I see other people replying by pointing out that nothing of the sort is happening in the story.

    I like Yshtola (as evidenced by my post early in this thread). I like to imagine my character and Yshtola have interest in one another. But even with the "Yes, Mother..." reply we get with her, I wouldn't start claiming that Yshtola is romantically interested in the WoL/D. Even though her facial expression could be read that way if one REALLY wanted to.

    Not quite sure how you took my comment to be aggressive, but okay? Blunt perhaps, but in no way was I biting your head off.

    "It affects you in no way" is aggressive in its tone. You're basically telling people to shove off or that their opinion doesn't matter.

    And nothing about my reply to you is aggressive. I didn't say, nor imply, you were biting anyone's head off, either.

    Not even remotely? Bluntness =/= Aggression. If you want to take it in such a way then fine, I can also reply you did the same but at this point this whole debacle is rather silly since tone is something that's almost impossible to interpret over text without a bazillion emojis.

    A fair and reasoned response. I like you.


    I wonder if we'll actually have to deal with the whole "G'raha is immortal cus Crystal Tower" thing later in the story? Since he no longer has a reason to be immortal. And, whether I can flirt with him or not, I DO want him to ultimately be able to live out his (romantic and specific) dream of going on adventures with us. And he can't do that tied to the Tower, even if that tie extends to the Tower on the Source somehow. If we're gonna add G'raha to Team Scion, this is going to need to be addressed.

    As I said, the tone of remark is aggressive by context.
    And you did outright accuse me of being aggressive.
    You're right that bluntness =/= aggression. I would add that aggression=/=biting one's head off.

    "It doesn't affect you" is used to dismiss people's opinions, and is often aggressive in its tone due to that. Hence the reason I said "aggressively dismiss".

    Enla would have to actually be aggressive in their tone, to be aggressive in their tone. Not simply use a phrase you have seen as aggressive in tone in other places. They were not being aggressive. Please stop being goofy, CazzT. Be like Elsa, Let it go~

    I see the OP is up to 47 likes. So glad PondHollow started this thread.
    Glad to see I'm gonna get dogpiled on this. I was expecting at least one person would understand what I'm saying, but instead my words are just gonna be twisted and used to accuse me of saying things I'm not saying. I don't feel like explaining why a comment is inherently aggressive regardless of the intent of poster. The explanation will be ignored in favor of twisting my words.

    I'm glad to see OP has so many Likes, too. I'm one of them. I also made a post early on asking for similar options for Yshtola. But this will ignored in favor of people telling me I'm angry and wrong.

    Funny how this devolved into aggression vs speaking plainly alongside the argument of interpretation of intent. I think the Exarch has a fanboy crush on us, some people don't. Crazy how different and dynamic thought process is between people.

    Wait, you mean we weren't subtly flirting with him the entire time?
