Is one of the reasons why is if she even tries to have sex with another girl Iwanako may die?

Whoa whoawhoawhoawhoa. Hold up. Don't go taking me too seriously. It's just an example. And besides, you weren't planning on making this +18, were you?Leaty wrote:...

I think he's asking if you're avoiding any yuri because Iwanako may have heart problems from the physical acts of such a relationship, AKA Hisao and his heart attacks when having sex.Leaty wrote:I don't understand this question; can you rephrase it?
Yikes. I know you're joking, but please don't scare us like that.Leaty wrote:...

It sounds a little bit ominous when you put it like that. Anyhow, it seems to me like what you're saying is that the romantic relationship won't be the sole focus of the story. (Maybe I'm just overthinking this.)Leaty wrote:I don't consider this story a route, and I don't consider it yuri for a myriad of reasons. Iwanako will have a romantic relationship with a female character in this story. That's all I'm revealing.

Yeah, I didn't phrase that right. I should have said "Let me phrase it like this" then said this.Jake Zero wrote:What happens to your heart whenever you masturbate?
Well.. there is a carmilla thread on /u/...Leaty wrote: Unless you'd call, say, Carmilla yuri, this fic is not yuri. It's a story about non-heteronormative women, specifically young women, and there's romantic content. Beyond that, please resist the urge to put the story in a box. I've said very little about what that content could entail.
The thing about the craft of the writer, especially in online forums, is that it requires the ability to somehow convey appropriate mood and nuance. EBJ's support is irrelevant here. If your statement was rhetorical, then it was pointlessly so; if your statement was a direct query, it was pointlessly offensive. Modern readers and writers (and I suppose those who feel browbeaten by the death of the author idea) tend to think that intention doesn't count, so assertion of purpose is sufficient one way or the other, positively or negatively. I'd rather you had responded by saying something like, "I was not intending to be offensive and I apologise if it was thought to be so, and I also have a sense of humour."Jake Zero wrote:I was NOT being offensive or anything of the sort.
