Lines and Veils

This is supposed to be a comedy, but any good comedy has moments that tug the heartstrings. Still, it's good to establish what topics are off-limits.

Full disclosure, I've probably got the tightest leash out of all of us. What can I say? I'm the kind of person who has a pet bunny and the mom hormones hit like a freight train.

Things I'd rather have happen "off screen":
heavy make-out sessions
sex
moderate torture

Lines I'm OK approaching "on-screen":
history of sexual assault
implicit threat of sexual assault
threat of serious injury to mothers/children
threat of serious torture

Lines I won't cross:
actual sexual assault, serious torture, or harm to mothers/children in the present timeline


If there's anything else to add, please do, no questions asked.

This list looks good to me. I have nothing to add right now.

Same I think that's good

Sounds good to me. By the way, does cartoon violence count as serious threat? Like, if some villain of the week was holding hostages with his patented Granite Gun which can turn stuff into granite.

Not in my opinion. Now, Granitizing them and then taking out a sledgehammer? I'd consider that a serious threat.

sounds like something a batman villain might do for sure.

I'm generally thinking whatever our regular Saturday morning cartoons can have, although I'm good with most of the more mature reader themes in current comic books.
