Um actually I have something more to say about Kabru and Mithrun’s similarities and relationship.
I think a lot abt how it’s shown a few times how elven culture relies heavily on non-natural ways of doing things, and it’s interesting especially how like our main cast repeats multiple times the three steps to living a long and healthy life. Meanwhile the canaries, the elves, don’t necessarily recognize that stuff as important as it is. I think specifically of the example of Mithrun explaining to Kabru that he has to have medication or a spell otherwise he can’t sleep, to which Kabru tucks him in and gives him a massage which knocks him out cold. His dependency on other methods to fight off insomnia were kinda just in his head, he hadn’t tried anything else. I mean prior to joining the canaries he was fully restrained 90% of the time so ofc a servant would just come in and place a spell for him to sleep every night. And he was like that for years. And then Cithis just replaced all his caretaker servants, then it became her job to make sure he took a pill or listened to her bells every night. I think there’s something there about how there’s a list of stuff Mithrun wasn’t allowed to be around and when he gets separated from the canaries he encounters all of that since Kabru doesn’t know to “protect” Mithrun or restrain him so severely. And it’s interesting because Mithrun doesn’t even seem to have issues with the things, like ofc top on the list was he wasn’t supposed to see goats or sheep. One of the first things he and Kabru eat is barometz. Its something to me that Kabru, who has also suffered so much, takes Mithrun into this dungeon and he has to face head on what’s been bothering him, he has to look his trauma in the eyes. And eat it. He cannot move on until he sees it, understands it, and finally starts talking about himself (“the last desire I had left wasn’t revenge, I wanted the demon to finish me off” “I was scraps left on the plate […] I guess vegetable scraps have their uses too”)
It just seems to me like a more vague and overarching way we see the elven cultural mindset hold him back from properly healing, I don’t think Kabru knew what he was doing at all but the fact of the matter is no one was filtering Mithrun’s view of the world anymore. And while Mithrun believed that didn’t matter to him, nothing mattered, it still made a difference. He was still on the path to moving on, and properly healing, even though he didn’t quite recognize that.

Adding on about the positivity post: You can have a fetish/kink, and think someone is hot, without it being "a problem." It's not automatically fetishizing or sexualizing ALL fat people, we're ALLOWED to exist and be hot, if it doesn't apply to you, anon, scroll on :)

Porn in our culture is so normalized I don't think this person even realizes it. There's hentai games on sale on the front page of Steam. Half of our music videos are softcore porn. There's nothing to inverse here because the same people who "bat an eye" at sex are probably also not into the gratuitous violence either. Just because the mainstream does include more explicit violence than explicit sex, it still includes....alot of explicit and implicit sex. The idea of sex. Women on a platter.
The last line also insinuates that the inverse, "watching sex would be a weird and loser-ish thing to do" is what's currently true. GOD. I wish it was!! I wish!!!

While there are some groups of people I block on sight (mainly antis, terfs, and people who support autism speaks), I won't ever harass people for accidentally interacting with my content. It happens, don't sweat it. Even if you intentionally follow, then realize my stance, no worries.
