so I was like 14-ish when I first started getting into final fantasy and general anime stuff
at some point my mom was at the library and found a book about, like, anime and the culture surrounding it. Out of a normal parental desire to understand what her kids were into, she read a bunch of it, but lacking any context whatsoever I think she got the wrong idea
she then very nervously confronted me about it, leading to an INCREDIBLY awkard conversation where I had to clarify that, no, "CloudxSephiroth yaoi doujinshi" and "Final Fantasy VII" are SEPARATE THINGS, I am simply playing a regular videogame, not watching gay pornography
but if you would like them to not be separate things, i made a book of markov chain poetry generated out of queer fanfiction and gamefaqs walkthroughs of ff7
