im still waiting til the 28th to talk ab casual stuff (n ill edit this part later on) but the idea of cassie’s dad/bonnie bro also being the jeremy who sliced his face off is really interesting to me for a design idea, specifically in showing facial deformity without it being “body horror” or “gore” or whatever (compared to michael who was literally a rotting corpse, those tags fit him)
im not sure which jeremy he is, if he’s any, and im not sure if he’ll be in the next game seeing as its probly the ‘83 fall festival,
but having a character with, say, no nose and other parts of his face missing is something id like to portray in a design! esp treating it as normal, bcuz it is (the way he acquired the injury isnt per se, but still, showing that in art is important)
ill include him in the theatre “au” im working on

Love your bodily autonomy post. Makes me think of how a couple months ago, for my 18th birthday I got an industrial piercing done. My mom straight up told me the idea of it made her uncomfortable and she didn't really like it, but that as long as I wanted it she was fine with me getting it. It was more the idea of the piercing itself, but still, she was able to respect that /I/ wanted it and thats what mattered. She actually really likes how it looks too haha
Like, I totally get why people are adverse or repulsed by certain bodily changes, but ultimately, it isn't very productive to prevent somebody to go through with that change - be it a piercing, a tattoo, hair dye, or even a surgery.
My dad was the same way. He's told me to my face he finds facial piercings to be something he's adverse to. It didn't stop me from inviting him to drive with me to get my four facial piercings (which he did, and he, too isn't opposed to them on me). At the end of the day, we must realize having conditional autonomy is not autonomy.
