Tw Rape Mention - Tumblr Posts - Page 2
Sam and gilly's first time in the books: sweet and awkward and kind of cringe scene between two teenagers figuring things out through their own choices prompted by their affection for each other and nothing else
Sam and gilly's first time in the show: sam saves gilly from assault and she's so so grateful for not being violently raped that she has sex with him <3 so romantic
Why is the Witcher fandom not talking about this scene? I get it. I completely agree, the whitewashing of the PoC characters is horrible. The racism is atrocious. We need to talk about that. HOWEVER. We also need to talk about this. This scene. It makes my skin crawl. I'm horrified. Appalled. Everyone should be, no matter how you feel about this show. ESPECIALLY if you love this show. Especially if this is the canon you prefer. Because this scene right here? Turned those witchers into rapists. Discussion below the cut.
Vesemir is standing there, smiling and sober. Geralt is talking to him, not smiling but also sober. They discuss how "all of them" the witchers and sex workers alike took this drug. It's clear they're all inebriated. So even if you do not know prior canon, you know they are at minimum, drunk off of some substance. If you DO know the lore, and/or are just nosy, you know they're all clearly overdone on a hallucinogenic substance. You cannot consent when drunk. You cannot consent when high. My problem here is, this is a known substance for the witchers. If this is something Eskel has taken to deal with the pain of his sting, then it's likely a common substance to them. They know it, they know the taste, they know how it impacts their bodies, and what drinking too much will look like for them. Spoiler alert: They're all pretty much fine. Because they manage the Leshen fight just fine. They go from carousing to fighting in a heartbeat. However, the women? Are you telling me they agreed to come up the mountain, agreed to have their memories forcibly wiped? Consent is explicit, ongoing, to each activity, and revokable. They did not tell us, or show us, that these women agreed to being drugged. They had "summat warming". Alcohol is the implication. Even drunk off your ass, most people (most!) can remember the next day. Especially when they don't drink that much- because when shit goes down, these women run to hide, and run to leave. They're not shown as heavily impaired. They're not stumbling or woozy. They're afraid of the attacking monster.. upset, scared, half dressed... and then they run out of the keep. Netflix Witcher's continent website even confirms that they do not remember what happened, and that one of the women died.
These women were drugged, raped, and left to fend for themselves on a mountain full of wolves that we were told harbor wolves that are familiar with and used to eating human flesh. We're supposed to shrug this off because... they're sex workers? They're a plot device? They're a day's amusement? I have asked Hissrich 6 times, explicitly and politely, and been ignored each time. Today, with all the rest of her behaviour, I'm done. Also, Editing to add in, the gifs were made for me by the ever wonderful @winter-fir. Go follow my friend, she's a sweetheart and a lovely artist.

I was bored and I like this term. I may make more NSFW/DDIN ones like succubussensus (succubus), lolisensus (loli), shotasensus (shota), rapistsensus (rapist), or sexslavesensus (sex slave). Idk, they’re easy to make.
Also, antis come for my throat. Your pain and hatred in my flags & made up words amuses me.

❗AVOID THESE PEDOPHILES AT ALL COSTS! ❗
I was scrolling through Tumblr and came across a post of KNOWN PEDOPHILES ON TUMBLR (many of which have or want to rape actual children/minors)
THERE ARE ACTUAL PEDOPHILES ON TUMBLR TRYING TO GET IN TOUCH WITH MINORS ON TUMBLR
PLEASE SIGNAL BOOST THIS LIST AND KEEP OUR MINORS SAFE
That's actually revolting. Fresh doesn't deserve to be seen this way, I wholeheartedly believe his canon self would hate pedophiles.
I really hope the people joking about it are just immature children who think joking about it makes them edgy and not pedos trying to defang the concept by using characters children have been known to like.
[Edit: PJ's Daycare is talked about below the cut. I put a 'read more' because I know I certainly wouldn't want to see it mentioned without a warning.]
Oh dear god, I bet this started because of that awful 'Pj's daycare' comic someone made years ago. Don't read it, all you need to know is that pedophilia was normalized and made light of. It had a very cutesy art style and accrued a large fanbase of children. I have no doubt that the creator did not have good intentions.
Thankfully I didn't have any run-ins with the comic myself, but I've seen a lot of people who grew up on the comic talk about how it messed up how they saw relationships between adults and kids.
People have put these characters [and their fans] through serious shit.
might just be me but how is calling Fresh a pedo and PJ his victim a funny joke
He really is! I love Fresh, he's so complex and I love his canon character arc. Plus, he's just a rad dude in general. And canon PJ is also pretty cool! He's an asshole in his 20's who hates his parents while also trying to follow in their footsteps, what's not to like? I wish people would treat them better.
Also, I think 'jokes' about that kind of shit should be regarded as very suspicious and not just things said ignorantly. Because what are their intentions behind joking about such a thing? Not only is it wrong to do so, but the people who joke about it could genuinely be dangerous. But then again, some of the people joking about it are children, and that's just as worrying.
I think the reason it's so common to see people joke about it is because of how many kids are in the fandom. Kids tend to be a bit ignorant to the full severity of things like this. And they shouldn't learn the full severity because, y'know, they're children. But unfortunately, being online and not knowing puts them in more danger than if they did know. The better thing would be to not let them online at all until they are old enough to understand these things, but we all know how much some parents like to let the internet raise their child.
Sorry for my incoherancy, I rambled.
TLDR: Folks should moderate these kids' online viewing experience. And Fresh and PJ deserve better.
