also I realize this is maybe not what most people care about, but for me if I'm reading historical fiction I really want to see the characters thinking in a way that's visibly connected to the culture & period they exist in, even if they're consciously rejecting elements of it. so like if I read a historical gay romance (even one with no angst) I still want to see how their brain conceptualizes their experiences with gender and sexuality as a part of their historical context, be that in the language they use or how they think about dynamics or what they worry about -- that's part of what makes it meaningful to me. if they're thinking & framing everything exactly as a modern person would what's the point

Whenever people say Wyll is straight you can tell they haven't talked to him more than once.

shadow like, probably forbids silver from bringing objects from the past lest something breaks in the timeline right. but i think silver would still sneak in some stuff. i think shadow becomes mote flexible on this rule after silver brings him photos from the past

that's also part of what makes aeneid iii so good I feel like, the nightmarish way they're not just trapped wandering through the ocean but also through the aftereffects of both the events of homer and homer's poetic world itself. the characters are ensnared by the genre into re encountering their past (both personal trauma and narrative tradition) again and again, as a part of an ancient literary map they can't get out of. the book itself is a sort of flooded world, awash with both the ruins of troy and the bones of homer's poetic corpse

also worth noting that "abusive" doesn't actually mean "irredeemable" either.
there's a lot of people that have done things in the past that were bad, because they weren't taught any better, or they were in an overall toxic situation where EVERYONE was shitty (like a cult), or they were just at an especially low point and hurt others for it.
you don't have to forgive them. you don't have to ever speak to them again. you can be angry with them until you die if you want.
but society cannot function if we don't allow them to move on. to change their behavior and fuck off somewhere else and build meaningful relationships without bothering you again. we need a path for people to change, or nothing ever will.
