I don’t see the issue?

Not OP, but I'm assuming that OP's friend was so obsessed with porn that they took one of the most the most non-horny things (Moomins) and made porn of it. Past this point, the sex-obsession only intensified further, straining the relationship between OP and their friend.

Second possible explanation I'm pulling straight from my ass: Moomin shipping made OP's friend obsessed with soft, pure bois, and uwu aesthetic to the detriment of OP and their friend's relationship.

God knows I have no clue, this is only how I, a random bystander, understood this secret.

I'll tell you it's closer to the former.

AYRT

I'm sorry, OP. I had a friendship that ended similarly to the former as well. I left a comment below in the thread wishing you well and for healthier relationships to come. It's not easy at all going through this sort of thing, but at least your boundaries will help you be healthier from now on.

I'm sorry. I would have assumed it was more likely to be the latter, going from what I've seen of the Moomin fandom. And here I was going through the replies to the main secret before I read this subthread and wondering why everyone was jumping to the conclusion that it was porn when the secret only said "slash."

Me personally, in most cases the pure softboi obsession annoys me more than horniness in fandom, but if it's something like Moomins that's a different story. More power to anyone who's into that, but I would probably nope out too.

Me neither. Sorta weird but I've seen much weirder.

OP

It was a symptom of a greater problem, one I could write a memoir about, but I'm not prepared to give identifying details.

Oh boy do I feel you there. I have had a couple fandom friends like that, where it went sour and I realize there were some warning signs early on that things were going to not end well, but stated independently probably most people would just go "well that's a little odd but not terrible." Because no, they weren't, but it was the beginning of a shift... which wound up being much larger.

My sympathies to you also. Always sucks when friendships end for whatever reason.

Thanks for reminding me of Rule 34, OP!

(Anonymous) 2021-08-21 10:03 pm (UTC)(link)
I said it before, and I'll say it again: Now this is a true secret.

(But in a more serious note, I'm sorry about your friendship, and I hope you're in healthier relationships now.)

OP

(Anonymous) 2021-08-21 10:41 pm (UTC)(link)
I appreciate your words. I'm still grieving the loss, but I'm with better people now.

(Anonymous) 2021-08-21 10:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Thank you for making my secret. :)

😬 People best not be corrupting moomins.

(Anonymous) 2021-08-22 10:53 am (UTC)(link)
All the people who grew up with the show are so full of Moomins that at this point nothing is sacred. Only people that got into them in the Tumblr wave think they should not be "corrupted" lol.

(Anonymous) 2021-08-22 12:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Lol get ready to be disappointed.

(Anonymous) 2021-08-22 01:26 am (UTC)(link)
I am very sorry for the loss of your friendship, dear anon. However, this secret is excellent and it cracked me up, indeed there are points where the bond just starts ripping at the seams but we can't see it yet. Some more particular than others.

there was totoro smut in weepingcock a long time ago and no, even if it was good I would also nope out of that

(Anonymous) 2021-08-22 09:42 am (UTC)(link)
I'm sorry to tell you, but Snufkin/Moomin has been around for ages.
