You see these delectable motherflippers? These are called STATES. You stupid foreigners might not be able to wrap your head around this, but basically they're administrative subdivisions of the country.

And here's the thing: They are totally heckin' different from each other! For instance, New York:

Looks TOTALLY DIFFERENT from Kansas:

And they both look TOTALLY different from California!

TAKE THIS WITH A GRAIN OF SALT

Based off what I've seen from Retsnom (random screenshots), I think Darumi lowkey has a maternal side? But like you said, because of her past she knows she doesn't have the capacity to be the parent a child deserves. She'll have some bad days where her mental health will not let her think of others.

IF Darumi wanted a family, I think her ideal situation would be with Hiruko and her partners (depending on the timeline) and help with the kids.

Sorry quick comic. I don't like how I write Daruko; I think I make Hiruko baby Darumi too much. But the idea is still there.

We can tell youth that they are basically “rapists waiting to happen” (anti-rape initiative), or we can tell them that we know they would intervene if they saw harm happening to someone and we want to help empower them to do that (bystander intervention). The kids jump in with both feet for the latter! It was amazing to see children (and young boys in particular) excited to do this work and engage their creativity with it. Also, studies show that not only do they go on to intervene, but they also do not go on to sexually assault people themselves. Bystander intervention also takes the onus off the person being targeted to deter rape and empowers the collective to do something about it. It answers the question in the room when giggling boys are carrying an unconscious young woman up the stairs at a house party, and people are not sure how to respond and are waiting for “someone” to say or do something.
