#iris speaks.

I've been meaning to make this UPDATE FOR LIKE A WEEK NOW (I blame my "not wanting to get out of the warm bed and do the thing" lazy self. But if you're seeing 4 items no longer available in my ko-fi it's because I found something out about one of the assets I used being AI generated and I've taken them off to redo them.

I want to apologize for my mistake of using an AI generated asset. I usually try to be good about figuring out what's what, but it's getting so hard lately to even distinguish between non-AI and AI. I will see if I can find any Infinity Nikki (or Nikki series in general) assets to use as replacements and work on that as soon as I can.

when i was about 15/16 i joined a university rp. i recognized a mun from a previous rp, she was much older than me, early 20s if i remember correctly. she had a fc that i wanted to ship with, and so i - thinking i was Super Mature - tried to make that ship happen, but she gently declined and diverted the thread we had from romance to something platonic. she made sure that nothing weird happened to me in that rp and she warned me about the mature topics that could come up in other people’s threads.

that’s interacting with minors. that’s looking out for them as the adult figure in the situation. she was never really a friend, because when you’re a teen people in their 20s seem like serious adults and so she was more of an authority figure to me, even if i didn’t realise it at that time. she could’ve gone along and shipped and written about all these mature topics and just completely ignored the age difference. she didn’t though, because she had a functioning brain and understood that ignoring my age and everything that came with that would be weird and problematic.
