Also from memory, I thiiiiink Afra is meant to be Black? Or a MOC of some sort? But he's also green - like, there is a green tint to his skin and hair, because something something future planet biosphere something - so I'm not 100% on that. But I'm mentioning it ahead of time -
- because WOW was I taken aback by the sheer amount of baldfaced racism in McCaffrey's Pegasus in Flight, which prompted this whole thing, and for anyone following along with this, I want you to be prepared for the prospect of More Racism Ahoy.
It’s hardly unique to McCaffrey, but goddamn, I hate when “sissy” is used like this, especially for a tiny child.pic.twitter.com/2TnGO4Vqo1
By McCaffrey’s standards this is deeply culturally sensitive, and yet I cannot get past the use of “brown chief” to describe a man who is evidently of Japanese descent.pic.twitter.com/OxjjzOI2tj
Absolutely galaxy-brained Anglocentricism here, to have humanity populating the solar system but a guy who lives ON ACTUAL EARTH doesn’t know where Japan is.pic.twitter.com/5rBVKj7CMk
Hey, I’ve just met you and this is crazy, but do you wanna come to a brothel maybe?pic.twitter.com/6viwaBA2QM
When I tell you my heart rate LEAPT before I realised this was referring to a cat!! Like. I assume this is a reference to the Main Coon breed, but Perhaps This Wasn’t Entirely Necessary??pic.twitter.com/Tgr1VXM2yn
Ah yes, the evergreen trope of Boy Losing His Virginity So Good That Sex Worker Declares Him Her Favouritepic.twitter.com/5m2D09uuK0
Super cool to talk about needing a “mate” because you’ve gotta breed your special psychic talents into the next generation!pic.twitter.com/MXU3ngFOZn
McCaffrey is just... So Weird about sex, you guys. It always comes out Weird.pic.twitter.com/vPy4ad1B1N
This is some skeevy fuckin’ foreshadowing and also eerily close to what the pedophile substitute teacher says to Tiffany in that one episode of Daria, so like. Unintentionally apropos!

also if every single dude could stop obsessing over who the rowan is gonna fuck that would be Nice, but given these first few chapters are just a recap of the first book only from Afra’s POV that is Unlikely
“So hey, this is a totally normal thing for your big boss to ask, but your other boss might’ve just lost her lover so I need you to pinch-hit and fuck her so she doesn’t go crazy - I’d do it myself, but I’m too far away.” Y I K E Spic.twitter.com/yD4qx8AZaC
She has been gone for literally THREE WEEKS, YOU ARE NOT NOTICING HER PREGNANCY BECAUSE OF WEIGHT GAIN AT THIS POINTpic.twitter.com/ZzTCXB4UY2
In a better universe, “Do you love her so little that you cannot welcome her husband with open arms?” would be the prelude to a bi and poly OT3 instead of Afra waiting to fuck their daughter. AND YET.pic.twitter.com/FGCv9wCrNa
“Is it cool that I would’ve been willing to fuck your wife?” “It’s the coolest; I’m only sorry I don’t have any spare female relatives for you to marry.”pic.twitter.com/zsIOZfx5hx
Well, THAT adds another layer of skeevy to the eventual relationship
Also please note that we’re now 89 pages into a book called Damia and DAMIA HASNT EVEN BEEN BORN YETpic.twitter.com/dtbcoNbyHO
108 pages into a 336 page book, the titular character has finally been born!pic.twitter.com/1iYTdYJTk2
And lo, the meet-cute between a one-year-old Damia and grown-ass adult Afra.pic.twitter.com/ZEAbwYC2d3
brb, throwing up in my mouth a bit at Afra calling baby Damia “minxlette” because of the future context 

pic.twitter.com/ubSJQaSWwh
I knew things were gonna get skeevy but the romance-coded puns and language used to talk about Afra and baby Damia is REALLY FUCKING UNSETTLINGpic.twitter.com/OOOHzVVc4R
