that's a really dumb line to draw. fanart of derek eating out stiles' ass is drawn representation of shit people play out, but it's also drawn and isn't real face attached to anything. how is fanart of la characters any different than fanart of anime or comic chars? it's still warping the canon of something. that applies to rp. it's all fake. you're doing that thing where you're getting offended on behalf of someone else. where is this line drawn? rp? fanfiction? fanart? anything not strictly canon? i'd think that artists would be more pissed someone's copying their art that they drew by their own hand and doing porn with it than someone taking a 100x100 icon of someone's face and writing words they didn't say with that picture attached.
it's all fantasy. we're all on a site to play it. trying to say one is better than the other is just asinine and tbh, the whole creepy eww real face attitude is why there's a medium divide in the first place. it's all fucking fake. using rl as some kind of 'well my fake is better fake because it's not anywhere close to rl fake' is making excuses for why you don't like the thing and can't separate from ic/ooc.
and you're damn right i'm invested. it's one thing if you don't want to play against me as an la player. whether you don't like the canon or the char or whatever, that's fine. i don't expect everyone to. i dislike anime. but it crosses a line into personal territory when you're basically calling someone a pervert for playing smut with la chars vs anime. eww live face? look, just don't play against la. don't be a dick and try to make it about a superiority complex thing. that's where i take it personally.
