(Anonymous) 2023-01-21 02:20 am (UTC)(link)This, 100%. Personally my OTP is 95% of what I read fanfic for, so I don't read a lot of de-aged fics anyway, because it can be tough to do them in a way that doesn't give of shota vibes (shota's not my scene), yet still manages to cater to the ship in some way.
But even if I wasn't in it for my OTP, I think I would still be pretty distressed by permanent de-aging, because even though a variant of the character is still alive, you are permanently losing the variant of the character you knew. I've never read a de-aging fic where it turned out to be permanent, but I remember years and years ago reading a long fic where one of the main characters got amnesia and forgot eight years, which was the entirety of the story up to that point. I foolishly presumed they'd get their memories back eventually, but they never did, and I'm still salty about it. (Of course I would never actually bug the author about it; they didn't do anything wrong. But nonetheless, I'm salty.)
