It's not really a "house" - It's Kolat Towers. Kolat Towers is a pair of wizard towers surrounded by a small compound. There's a lot of spare rooms.

There being a landlord dynamic in this fictional relationship makes it way less cute. The real enchantment was the threat of homelessness all along.

The idea that Konsi would kick someone out on the street is pretty far-fetched.

That doesn't mean Razira wouldn't feel disadvantaged or pressured to react a certain way in the power dynamic. It doesn't have to do with Konsi's internal dialogue. This has been established for reason most commonly in lawsuits dealing with sexual harassment between supervisors and their reporting employees.

Dude, this is a light-hearted cute comic about people falling in love. It's not really an appropriate venue for accusing the author of romanticising sexual harassment in the workplace.

I'm not accusing her of doing that on purpose. I'm informing her that it reads that way to people who've been subject to similar situations in the past.

"I'm not accusing her of doing that on purpose" means you ARE accusing her of doing that, which is fucking ridiculous.

[-] uphillbothways@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

It absolutely does not. Please stop.

[-] Marchioness@ttrpg.network 7 points 2 years ago

Oh I'm sorry, I don't mean to say you accused her of doing that on purpose, I'm informing you that it reads that way to other people.

If your takeaway from this is that it's "sexual harassment" then that's a you problem.
