If someone underage initiates a sexual conversation with you- which isn’t just them asking for advice or sex ed -it is up to you, the adult, to shut the conversation down. You do not reciprocate and start speaking sexually/flirting back at them, even if the minor claims they don’t mind.
You shut down the conversation and leave because you’re the fucking adult. Stop being sexual to children even if they start it and say they aren’t bothered- they’re still underage and it is your responsibility as the adult to stop it.
my favorite fanfic trope is two idiots pining for each other and literally everyone except them are aware of how deeply they are in love with each other
Anakin: We can make this work! We’re Romeo and Juliet!
Padmé: It didn’t work for Romeo and Juliet. That play ends in a tragic double suicide.
Anakin: That’s how it ends? Why do people like it so much?
This is both amazing and profoundly irritating – the exact writing equivalent of that thing artists do – you know, how they’ll mess up anything that’s on expensive paper and planned in every single detail but get them doodling during a boring lesson and suddenly they’re Michel-bloody-angelo.
