You know I kind of wonder if the people here who keep arguing that it's not ok are less about fiction = reality and more that they just lack imagination?

Like if I were to write Shiro and Keith I'd be shipping them based on their close bond, mutual respect, and yes their personal insecurities, and I'd be writing a universe where both characters are capable of informed consent and having a healthy relationship.

Same as if I wrote Shiro with a random alien OC I'd write the alien with human intelligence and being capable of consent and having a romantic relationship with a human.

They're not just An Adult and A Teenager, they're two fictional characters with a list of fictional capabilities, such as flying giant robotic lions and saving the universe, and with the way they're written the crew could have said they're all in their 20s and I wouldn't have blinked, they're all pretty generic action protags. Fiction is always full of characters doing things that aren't appropriate like 14 year olds running away from home, making deals with evil witches, and marrying dudes they've never actually had a conversation with.

It's kind of weird that people hardcore go after a weird little niche like fanfic for their purity crusades when there's so much more Problematic Content out there. Which is why I find it less that they're truly believing that people who ship Shiro and Keith are pedo because Keith's Underage, but shipping Keith with Lance is A++ and not Underage anymore, and more that it's just the same ol' ship wars and fandom dramaz, with a shiny new cover.

Yeah, that's the part that especially makes me laugh. So it's okay for fictional 14 year olds to be trained assassins or soldiers or other things that are most definitely not age-appropriate, but it's not okay for them to have sex? I mean, if people are going to clutch their pearls and scream "think of the children," there are a lot of other things they should be getting up in arms over too.
