Oh, easy, Sam's lack of a defined sexuality.
Over the course of early MSQ, he stuck his dick in several people.
Which would cause bisexual/pansexual discourse.
Plus, inevitable bisexual/pansexual erasure.
Meanwhile, Sam's living a happy life because he's sticking his dick in several people.

#wolqotd hypothetical.

Your OC becomes a canon character. What is their "problematic trait" that creates fandom discourse? This can be a genuinely problematic character trait or it can be something completely innocuous.

Trump: "We are working on beef. I think we have a deal on beef that's gonna bring the price of beef. That would be the one product that we would say is a little bit higher than we'd want it. Maybe higher than we want it. And that's gonna be coming down pretty soon too. We worked our magic."

Sam now, Sam's hair at it's longest canonically, and the one longer style I took for a trial run and ultimately didn't keep.

I write because I love writing. I love writing even when I'm struggling with a writing problem that is killing me. Finding a way through that problem is both intensely rewarding and also helps me become a better writer. There is no reason for me to ever outsource that.

Faine Greenwood @faineg.bsky.social · 10d

there’s this weird idea a lot of people seem to have about how all of us writers and artists must secretly want to use AI and are merely resisting temptation for ethical reasons, and like, no, it’s not hard for me to resist drinking the bowl of Piss With Glass In It actually

Another day, another cash shop drop in the world of Final Fantasy XIV Online, another stream of endless bitching from people traumatized by gacha games.

Online store stuff is optional, y'all, let's keep moving and mind your own damn business.

As far as partners go, Sam's only preferences are kindness, bravery, and a concern for others. Things that make someone suited to handle a relationship with the Warrior of Light.

I haven't explored his kinks much, but edging is definitely one, both giving and receiving.

This may come (heh) as a surprise, but this thread *will* be NSFW, so mute or scroll on accordingly if you don't want to see the answers.
