lmao i just ignore it at this point tbh because imo it's not like alabama typa incest it's like magical gods kinda incest so i dont get grossed out bc i guess they're not really dna related they just are all creations in one family idk okay i lie to myself
Kinda, but it is the Egyptian ennead.
literally what i’ve been doing too lmaoo but omg idk sometimes they just throw out an “uncle” and i can’t help but get whiplash
ikr i have to pretend it's not there and move on lmao
Thankfully I'm Chinese and we use familial titles for basically everyone so I don't really see it as real incest
As a reader of Chinese Xianxia and BL online novels, I THANK YOU so much for confirming that. I noticed how second and third generation rich young masters always call the hired cook "auntie" and the choffer "uncle" in Chinese BLs (I kinda liked that cause I too had an "auntie" of sorts growing up, and she WAS like family)
Hahaha yep. It bugs me so much actually when western fans of something try to push the "shipping them is a proship because he/she calls him (insert familial title)" like no . In fact growing up I thought that "auntie (ayi)" was actually a job title for maid and had no idea that meant aunt cause I called my aunt something else lol
That really doesn't bother me too much because it's a mythology or in this case, a 'fanfic' of the Egyptian mythology. In some myths, there is always an incestuous relationship. The Greek has Gaia and Uranus (mother/son), Zeus and Hera(siblings), the Japanese one has Izanami and Izanagi (twins). Even Isis and Osiris, Nepthys and Seth are siblings. Same thing for their parents.
I get what you're saying and I totally agree! I'm mostly referring to the fact that they actively call each other "uncle" and "nephew" lol like pls just say yalls name !!
Exactly even if we dont have any relation i will call someone who is older than me big brother , sister , aunt , uncle etc.
Ayyy Asian gang unite! It's actually quite common in Asian countries call any elder/senior with 'familial titles' so is all good ~
i love the story so far but am i the only one bothered by the fact that they actively call each other uncle/ nephew ???
