...3/2 😂

Characters who could be described as morally gray in books from years back were racists, rapists, ableists, thieves and murderers but they happened to be the heroes of the story. The contrast came in the form of their morally white live interest or partner.

Cloud & Aerith are an example.

2/2

The murder part should be the thing that makes the character gray but in the words these characters inhabit it's a likely bet that every character is a murderer or at least a violent thief in the story so they don't stand out enough to be gray.

I don't think morally gray characters exist anymore. I think with the rise of youtube essayists popularizing the death of the author trope, characters who are considered to be morally gray are just murders who follow modern social conversations."Killers who are woke".

I'm so out of the loop atm. Read something old. Or...I genuinely wish I knew someone who has a release now of all times so I could rec theirs. 😂

I bought a comic. Pre-order. The final issue of My Hero Academia. It has an exclusive cover. Really cool. How about you? :)

Yeah, I love meta stories but this one was meta but without the fun. Kind of trying to keep the reader out and that just reads as annoying. 😂

@markhamillofficial.bsky.social I'm coping by writing original novels that reflect the stupid timeline we find ourselves living in. It's called Little Height Lies. 🙂
