I can understand many things...but the only thing I will never get is why on earth do people hate selfcest. Like, there is nothing wrong with it, at all. Is it weird? Yeah. Is it harmful ? Absolutely not. That's litterally self love and a character loving another version of themself is a pretty good thing that doesn't hurt anyone. Even if it could be bad in real life somehoe (which it wouldn't even be), it litterally can't exist in real life and can't be problematic and harmful ship dynamic in general, at least bc it doesn't exist in real life, unlike some actually problematic dynamics
It's just an interesting consept and I will never get why do people hate it. Just bc It's unusual, doesn't mean It's bad??
I can't even call myself a selfcest shipper, there like only few ships like that I like and my favourite one is litterally oc. But in theory, It's not a bad thing. Especially for characters with npd it could be a good experience and probably one of the ways to get a healthy relationship with someone (like Sylki or Alastorcest (especially considering that Vivien herself said smth like "Alastor wouldn't date anyone, bc he can't love anyone more than himself")).
As someone with npd (I don't know if it defines anything tho), I do love this idea in general and find the whole "love yourself" and "find someone the same as me" actually good and possibly the best that can be imagined, so these people who for some reason are trying to make it look bad, gross, problematic and etc really annoy me, bc what can be more consensual and healthy than being with yourself, the only person who fully understands you and knows you better than everyone, basically knows everything about you and fits you perfectly? I genuinely don't understand how can people hate it, bc to me it seems like the least problematic ship dynamic exist
Especially in the verse where Undertale was one of the most popular fandoms
