nayrt - You seem unaware of what "narrative content" means, but I assure you, what the secret refers to re: people asking for spoilers fits the category of narrative content.

* tension. But the rest of the comment still stands.

The part that I don't see is the connection between asking for spoilers, and asking for content warnings.

[(Anonymous)]

I look at it this way - asking the author for spoilers is literally asking them to warn you about upcoming content?

[(Anonymous)]

Is it, though? Maybe they just... want to know how it ends.

IDK I don't think it's bad to want spoilers but maybe that's because I often do want spoilers for things - not so much for fic but for movies and stuff.

[(Anonymous)]

And that's not asking to be told about the content of a fic? I guess you could argue semantics about "warned" vs. "alerted" or something, but it doesn't seem like productive hair splitting to me. I personally don't think it's bad to want spoilers either, but usually people who want them for movies and TV don't contact the writer/creator directly to ask for them.

[(Anonymous)]

I think that my issue with "warning" is that it implies to me that like... the motivation for asking for spoilers is fundamentally the same as the motivation for asking for trigger warnings/content warnings in fic, and I don't think that's the case.

I think that's really it though, and maybe that is a semantic distinction, IDK

Asking for trigger warnings, and asking for spoilers, are two completely different things...
Being worried about something triggering you is fine, asking doesn't even need to lead to spoilers.
