This is where we get the possible molestation, or even rape from.“Idiot!” the first one said, slapping the other on the head. “We’re supposed to be looking for a little girl.”
That's kind of just semantics though. If you are using sex as a weapon to hurt someone, the crime is inherently sexualized. That doesn't reflect anything about the victim though - just the perpetrator. After all, the psychological definition of (sexual) fetishism is "the sexual attraction to materials and objects not conventionally viewed as being sexual in nature." (i.e. If some guy has an obsessive attraction to beer mugs, it doesn't mean the beer mug was leading him on.)Rape and such isn't a sexual thing. If that was the case why would old ladies get raped? It's violence, with sex as the weapon.
And that color spread was really cool.
Too bad some of those people didn't even canonically exist...
I interpreted it as things getting just to the point of going south, when the fire flared up.I suppose I kept things slightly vague on purpose. The original draft was a bit more explicit and my beta thought it was a little... well, it upset them. As things are now, if someone is really bothered by it, they can re-interpret what may or may not have happened in a way that will cause less distress.
I just got a little curious as I re-read over the four completed chapters, and wondered how most of you all interpreted it.
Most intro psych courses will at least touch on abnormal, clinical, and criminal psychology issues. Even if it makes you a little uncomfortable, I'd reccomend reading up on the subject if you want to write believable villains.Yeah, Morph got what I meant.
Ah thanks Viridian. I don't get to take Psychology until at least a couple of years, and even then I doubt we'll be covering criminal psychology. If I can even shove myself forcefully into the class.
This would also explain some of Asuka's sadness? Also, will this have affects later on, or will you not do that so that the scene may be interpreted multiple ways?
something i am grateful for as it makes the fic able to be read again if there is not something really really off putting like a full rape seen or something equally dark and distasteful .I'm not that wedded to keeping things ambiguous - I just didn't want to go beyond the bounds of good taste.
I was actually hoping for some abnormal and criminal psychology stuff, the topic is quite interesting to me, I was considering some career in psychology before I decided that I lose track of time and plot the most when it comes to cooking. Honestly though, who knows?Most intro psych courses will at least touch on abnormal, clinical, and criminal psychology issues. Even if it makes you a little uncomfortable, I'd recommend reading up on the subject if you want to write believable villains.
And yes, it will have some major long term effects. Her breakdown when Hikaru was burned is only a pale reflection of this. I'm not that wedded to keeping things ambiguous - I just didn't want to go beyond the bounds of good taste.
