It's so funny "missing" a fictional character like, yeah, you're not real but there's an ache in my heart that very much is and I wish more than anything that you were here with me so I could cling to you and tell you just how much you mean to me
@monachopsisdoll FOR REALLL, I think the fact that mizi and sua are also victims of CSA gets overlooked way too much in the fd. like none of the children in AG have any autonomy at all. they literally cannot consent to whatever physical experiments or procedures the aliens perform on them+
