You might have noticed that I already alluded to the fact that Kilka, the human protagonist (and I'm not even gonna get into why I named him that, because that actually has religious undertones, and I know people are gonna be offended, even though it was not meant to offend, so I'll just leave unexplained. Let sleeping dogs lie) is rather promiscuos. I think that in this day and age, the only reason why anybody (everybody, really) should be offended about that is if he were a pederast or a human trafficker. He is neither of those things. Those are the kinds of people he fights against. As you can tell from the story, he is an inventor that has become a rather wealthy industrialist, and now he spends his days doing investigative journalism. He does that because he has a high sense of duty towards humankind. He is not self righteous though, and he can be extremely violent when he gets pissed off... I'm going off on a tangent. One thing that I have not made quite clear yet is that he's bisexual. He is also, as I already mentioned, and incorrigible nudist, and has a rather kinky streak when it comes to sex. The series will not be very sexually explicit, because it's not about sex; but there'll be mention of many sexual practices and of Kilka having both male and female sexual partners. This is mainly to build up the sexual tension between him and Sophia, and because I think the collective uptightness over sex is one thing that most definitely should end all over the world. In Bangladesh for example, a 40 year old married man raped a 14 year old, and when she accused him of it, the court sentenced her to 40 lashes because they said that she had admitted to adultery. The guy got off scot free, and the girl died from the lashing. This is because some people are sexually uptight. Also, because apparently the Bangladeshi court system sucks ass...tangent again.
I guess what I'm trying to say is that one of the perks of being an independent blogger is that I have complete creative freedom. Final cut, so to speak. I'm not gonna change the violence, the cursing, or the bisexuality or promiscuity of my character, because I don't have to. So if you, dear reader, are offended by any of the content in this blog, you have 2 options:
1. Skip over the parts that offend you, or change those parts of the story in your mind (that's what imagination is for).
2. Pretend that this blog doesn't exist. I am not, after all, putting a gun to anybody's head to force them to read it.
Either way, I hope you enjoy your day. I probably won't post to add to the story for a couple of days, I'm working on the illustrations of Sophia, Kilka's riding suit, the different trikes in the story, and the battle armor that they transform into. Also I'm still trying to formulate all the twist plots I want in the story to keep it interesting.
Lates,
