like it wasn't awful in itself that she got an awkward 'crushing on a straight girl' story arc

but this was around when Sufficient Velocity was still in its "I hate your yuri fanfiction, but in a progressive way" phase

so people praised the plot development as ~realistic representation~ and thought it was ~so brave~ that yrsillar was willing to write his protag as a heterosexual woman

RIGHT?????????

plus lbh it wasn't even handled that well actually

ling qi avoiding her and being grossed out and all of that other stuff was actually p homophobic even though they made up later, and it never actually examined any of that,

just ling qi like "maybe we both should be a little bit better" and it's like.... ling qi you were a whole hell of a lot worse after that went down, they do not compare,

I guess if it was supposed to be ling qi being sex/romance repulsed then whatever

but why did you make these choices yrsillar

y

this is why there needs to be more actual lgbt cultivator-xianxia stories,,,, /slams hands on table etc

I'll write this... some day...

oh
