do you guys ever see this phenomenon in fandoms where they play such strong Trauma Olympics that there's this 'agreed' fanon with specific characters where they aren't traumatized or aren't 'as' traumatized as other characters and then you look at the character in question and they are/should be traumatized as fuck in all actuality? and it's entirely because the traumatizing event or backstory is 'subtle' (usually not really, just less 'dramatic' than other characters). I see it all the time and it drives me nuts. Like how are you going to look at a character with an abusive father, dead mom, and is a soldier and go 'he's not traumatized' or his backstory isn't 'bad' like GIRL

#that last part is abt kyojuro rengoku btw #that man is very much traumatized just not by a snake cult like obanai or someone #no he just grew up with an abusive father who belittled him for the majority of his developmental years #and neglected him and his little brother #who he kind of raised #and also was born into a family of soldiers in a war against man eating demons #and his mom died #not at all a very traumatized man #tch .#this is also like. a little. just a bit abt cole which is funny cuz one of his traumas is LITERALLY DYING #blah blah #abuse mention
