It's heteronormativity, that's why it's creepy imo. An alien cat is creative and spontaneous, playing marriage is following the script that society expects us to.

It's not bad on the kids part, ofc, but as a former little girl married to a woman, I'm sad that I had to face a lot of deep seated feelings that I was somehow 'doing marriage wrong'. It would be great if kids just...got to figure themselves out.

Addendum - it's also weird to have little kids fantasizing about marriage, or their perfect adult spouse, could not agree more. Stop projecting onto kids.

Yes.

Heteronormies that sparkle under the gentle light of gas lamps and that will defend that as the only acceptable default even at the cost of their own little lives (but at least they prevented the total & sudden collapse of society!), just like the little soldiers they aren't.

Be cool to each other. We'll welcome most occult themes, it's okay if you stray from witchcraft a bit.

No advertising. No trolling. No hate. Violaters will be removed unceremoniously.

We love art credits when possible.
