If you have any more rpfthoughts about Misa's uncomfortable experiences/consent issues/pressure with random people I always love reading them and feel very seen lol ❤️🩹
oh!….. do i talk about that a lot?… learning things about myself
i really do love to give misa (and my general rpf and non-rpf characters) issues with saying no to implicit things. misa knows it’s weird for authority figures, or random people, or anyone, to ask stuff of him that he’s not willing to give, sexual or otherwise, but the problem is no one does that explicitly. misa would much rather suffer through some uncomfortable interaction than interrupt with the wrong view of what’s going on— ex. he’d rather have a wandering hand go far up his thigh than point it out and have the guy go, what are you talking about, i’m not making a move on you?
misa knows he’s being harassed and he is not entirely sure how to get out of those situations, but eventually they end, so he just waits. he’ll sit there thinking, if it ever goes too far, i’ll do something about it. and it never gets to that point so he never has to find out if he would. misa can brush those things off, put them in their own dont think about it boxes and move on with his life. if it’s not helpful to think about then he shouldn’t, and he mostly succeeds. there’s always other things to worry about, he can’t put too much energy into the past.
