I agree with you on the principle that body positivity should include thin bodies.

I'm a little confused on the character stuff. I don't know the character, but... like, I'm confused about the way you're describing the character and the relationship between the corset and her body shape, I guess, and why that means that she must be skinny. I am just confused.

Sorry, I can see how it would be confusing.

She's thin to begin with and corsets have a slimming effect on top of that. When she's dressed, she's wearing a corset, because that's the time period. There are people specifically drawing her without a corset and with being non-thin because that's more "realistic." But it's not unrealistic to have her wear a corset, because she wears one in canon, and it's not unrealistic to have her be thin, because thin people exist.

SA - that makes sense, thanks for the clarification!

Personally, I don't think it's that weird to draw her without a corset, it's just different costumes. And similarly, drawing the character as larger is fine, it's just an interpretation. But yeah, calling that more realistic is weird.
