Over this past weekend, over 7,000 people read this story. You must know this already, since I assume you read the post before criticizing it. So how would you reach a larger audience? Perhaps you are simply unaware that approximately zero of the readers on fimfiction are little girls.
Although now that I think about that, I wonder why that is?
I know that people who read that sort of things are chronologically older than eight.
My point is that discussing an emotionally charged topic such as mortality requires emotional maturity. Please take no offense at this, but I think it’s a reasonable assumption that most people who enjoy a fictional setting targeted to eight year old girls probably have the emotional maturity of, well, eight year old girls.
This thread is not evidence to the contrary, IMHO. Most comments don’t rise above the “death is bad, M’kay?” level of argumentation.
I don’t think you understand the post if you think that we’re arguing over whether death is bad, and although you are perhaps trying to help, you should clarify that you don’t know what you’re talking about when you make assumptions about something you have no familiarity with, and not expect your opinion to be taken seriously by those who are familiar with the subject at hand.
Sure, now google “adult pacifier” and see what shows up. It doesn’t change the fact that pacifiers are primarily targeted at babies.
