[3/3] Son of Poseidon 

no one in real life gets hurt because someone has dark fantasies somewhere.

the only victims in this case are imaginary people, fictional characters with no lives, souls or feelings.

and it’s fun and therapeutic to indulge in dark fantasies from time to time, as long as they stay fantasies. and I trust that people can separate fiction from reality.

and it’s more than okay if your antagonist wins in the end.

not every piece of fiction has to end with the good guy winning. not every piece of fiction has to end with a perfect life lesson. especially when you create for yourself and your own enjoyment.
