Stuff from Origins OOC Feb 4th

[8:07pm] LilyAFK: ffs do we need to keep doing the "wow, (char) is now a woman! Because boobs!" so fucking often?
[8:07pm] LilyAFK: It's not interesting, funny, or unique, and it's also just factually wrong
[8:08pm] Orionbasher: :/
[8:08pm] Alivi: Lily you alright?
[8:08pm] LilyAFK: No
[8:08pm] Alivi: ok
[8:08pm] Talonair: :/
[8:08pm] Alivi: I mean
[8:09pm] Alivi: the body swap trope is a popular one
[8:09pm] Alivi: even in modern media
[8:09pm] LilyAFK left the chat room.
[8:09pm] Alivi: welp
[8:09pm] Orionbasher: :///
[8:09pm] • Alivi shrugs w/e
[8:09pm] Orionbasher: I don't get the 'factually wrong' part
[8:09pm] Alivi: Well some people would say
[8:10pm] Alivi: that since Zhou for example is likely a Cis male. He would never “be a woman” because he doesn’t see himself as such
[8:10pm] Cherry: Well, Lily has reservations on the topic, just... she's upset but know it's not your fault- she'll get over it, I'm sure.
[8:10pm] Cherry: Don't worry too much about it, she'll be fine.
[8:10pm] Alivi: even if he was biologically changed. He would still see himself as a male who was turned into a woman.
[8:10pm] Alivi: Yea. She tends to do this sort of thing often from what I can tell.
[8:10pm] Talonair: She does, yes
[8:10pm] Orionbasher: @.@ yikes
[8:11pm] Alivi: dont let it ruin the scene
[8:11pm] Alivi: ya’ll do you.
[8:11pm] Alivi: RP is supposed to be fun
[8:11pm] Talonair: To be honest it's totally killed my mood to RP
[8:11pm] Alivi: yea...
[8:11pm] Cherry: Know this by like- I'm telling you guys she does this often, but please understand that I'm not undermining or invalidating her feelings, just... blugh
[8:11pm] Alivi: i can see how like this.
[8:12pm] Alivi: Well like Cherry I get like you dont wanna  invalidate her feelings
[8:12pm] Orionbasher: I mean can pause this for later Talonair. I quite liked the scene
[8:12pm] Alivi: but it is also really shitty when a person keeps commenting and just acting rude
[8:12pm] Alivi: hell its also the 1950s
[8:12pm] DSJ: it's fine to have issues with something, but you don't also need to complain about something with no relation to you
[8:12pm] Orionbasher: I'm more confused than anything tbh
[8:13pm] Alivi: And like we have characters who honestly don’t mind and feel like they can adapt or see themselves differently despite it. But to a guy who is cis gendered he would have that reaction- AND that is ok.
[8:15pm] Talonair: Meh, need to go to work soon anyway
[8:15pm] Orionbasher: Sooooo how do we wrap this up?
[8:15pm] • Talonair shrugs
[8:16pm] Talonair: Let's just redact it
[8:16pm] Orionbasher: Awwww
[8:16pm] Talonair: And try showing Zhou the arena when people aren't going to be so sensitive about it
[8:16pm] • Alivi sighs
[8:17pm] Orionbasher: That feels like a slog
[8:17pm] Orionbasher: Can we keep it up till mermaid Zhou?
[8:17pm] Talonair: Fine
[8:17pm] Orionbasher: Yay!
[8:17pm] Orionbasher: Well I guess that's that then.
[8:17pm] Orionbasher: I hope work treats you kindly
[8:18pm] Talonair: Yea
[8:19pm] DSJ: yeah gl with work tal
[8:19pm] Alivi: good luck with work
[8:19pm] Talonair: Back later
[8:21pm] Alivi: bye
[8:22pm] Positronium: Cya
