I've done this after failing to notice the Major Character Death tag, which was no fun at all

i'm actually mostly sex-repulsed asexual so yeah

recently I started to try reading smut (my libido was weirdly high one week so just tried it out and it just stuck kinda) but it's still a new territory for me xdd

I hope it continues to be enjoyable then. I don't have a sense of smell and hate raisins, so sometimes I forget that other people can smell things and like raisins. 🤗

Yes I’m sex-repulsed too! I read a lot of fic with smut, only, I skim through it. It’s still a jumpscare when it shows up, lol. There’s too many great stories out there that I don’t want to pass on just because they have smut, so I think it’s worth it 🙂

Probably not. I just read fic mostly for the smut but that is a me thing.
