hey everyone

i've got a question to ask that i'm a little shy about asking off anon
so, let's just say that you've had bad experiences with things that are supernatural back home.

like abilities, phenomena, things like that?

but you're here now.
magic is abundant here. a lot of people have powers and crap like that.

so what i'm wondering is that...

for those of you who have abilities: how would you feel if someone close to you, like a friend? had problems with your powers? how would you ease them into that sort of thing?
or if someone told you outright that they had problems with the supernatural, how would you help them?

unrelated to that, i do have another question.
i think i'm the only one explicitly from my world? but i think there are some people that are from a city or country similar to it, and i think it's really interesting that there's actually people like that.
but for someone who's kind of anti-social, it makes it hard to make friends wwww
is there anybody else here that's in that boat? i'm kind of curious.

anyway, tyvm in advance!! _へ__(‾◡◝ )>

i understand
making people feel guilty bc of their own personal issues isn't fair to them

to either of them, rly

[itsknighttime]

no it isnt fair
if someones doing this to you tell them to fuck off or grow up or both
i get that it may be someone who youve known a long time but if they cant get their head out of their own asshole then its not something youre responsible to take the fall out for

[dereban]

'grow up', huh

maybe they do need someone to just make them understand...
i just think their trauma is also valid

[itsknighttime]

yea grow up
theres shit you got to do and endure even if you dont want to
and if you really dont want to you just leave it
not worth the mess

whatever they went through if its trauma theyre not going to want to fuck around with that and theyll always be afraid of that shit
might not be their fault but you cant help someone not be afraid of a trauma if thats what youre getting at whatever it is

[dereban]

that sounds... really pessimistic tbh
and unhelpful on both ends

like assuming that they'll always be afraid is kind of...
it's ng imo

[itsknighttime]

ok thats no problem take it as you need to im not here to force your hand
the hypothetical friend of vague experiences has trauma and trauma runs deep or it aint trauma
it comes down to you in the end dude

[dereban]

if it's not trauma, what would you even call it?

[itsknighttime]

a bad time
not everythings trauma thats a bad time

[dereban]

well.

i guess that's fair?
i think. it was pretty bad for them, anyway.

[itsknighttime]

well there you go
if its just bad then they can eventually suck it up everything is scary as shit sometimes and then its not
if its trauma then youre fucked either way if youre the nicest person or a psychotic murderer it wouldnt make a difference
so i guess you got a chance but your hypothetical friend needs to meet you half way you cant carry the water all the time in shit like this
people wont change who dont wanna

[dereban]

haha
i think they're the kind of person that wants to change

that's my thought on it, anyway

[itsknighttime]

you got this then
be supernatural
be yourself
just be and if they dont like it well ok hand them a good ol wrench to get the stick out
