Oh my god that terrible HTML, that'll teach me to post from phone. I am SO SORRY YIKES. Thank you for interpreting that *facepalm*
1. That makes sense! Likely no issue from this one then, since it's not as big a thing as it sounded like to me (possibly the suggestion just raised red flags, lol).
2. More important than some goats lolll I'm dying. They may still be stubborn ('Look, if all the goats die, the Teddy to goat value plummets') but truly, they're concerned about the risk of people drowning or having their entire house destroyed first (poor goats :C but, fair) and the intent is not to terrify anyone or be more hindrance than help!
3. So that's actually great for where I was thinking of going, in a sense? (It does make me realize I forgot to ask something, but I'm gonna throw that in the regular FAQ because it's not event related.)
I was thinking, even before it was confirmed as a way of communicating, of having Teddy's communications be via vision (returns to Echoes, or I guess potentially reaching out) and appear with some aspects of focal seizures. As I wrote about it I realized that if people were describing those similar symptoms that kids (or adults) with epilepsy might eventually be seen as blessed by (Teddy) than, for instance, cursed. And in turn, Teddy would see it as their responsibility to protect them because hey, they're supposed to be looking out for them. Self-fulfilling prophecy.
So the question here is a) is that cool or is that too wide a concept to say Teddy is a protector god of? Also open to winnowing it down to "not all seizures, but temporal lobe seizures (and/or ->); not everyone with TLE, but among Teddy's followers this is a belief" etc etc. I don't thiiink anyone else is intending on having their AU be the patron god of this population, but I don't want to break any rules.
b) is it possible for Teddy to hear Echoes BACK with some of those symptoms? I was thinking of their god persona not necessarily continuing to manifest epilepsy as it sort of helps with memory loss, but still having some of those experiences when someone reaches out to them, especially really passionately.
Sorry for so many questions and again thank you for the help!! The line between over-cautious and over-but-what-about is a weird one!
