Well, when you put it that way, it’s TECHNICALLY a useful ability…
Procceds to pretend to think about this seriously 
New business: hiring out Saint to hug dfab trans people. Boob-deflation service. With the money from this I can bribe my way through the Trials.

Her fault for having Saint the breast less powered demigod as favorite character. If my daddy present is Viagra he could gave Saint breast control powers.

My MC always ends up with allure over will… even when I’m trying to get will so that I can see Hades fulfill the daddy potential he should ><
I swear … I’m tired of being Athena’s half-sister.
…Maybe we should bring the conversation away from deflating chest and come up with more plausible theories. For the sake of @Rohie’s sanity. 
Like maybe taking guesses on how being raised by Aphrodite will cause Adonis to approach handling the Trials or how long Sage will be hostile toward a Bearer who is not hostile to her (and how protective the ROs will be if they see her or someone else being aggressive to the Bearer in some way)

People using an invasion of personal space as means to be more threatening (because them invading your personal space is a way to establish a power dynamic in their favor) are the worst. 
And that’s another reason why Aphrodite is on my hit list.
People that get touchy because they don’t know better are okay as long as they get the hint and only start to get touchy again after the other person signaled that it’s okay to do so. But the ones that just ignore how uncomfortable they make others can go to hell… But Saint gets the hint pretty fast, so I give him a chance. For now.
how long Sage will be hostile toward a Bearer who is not hostile to her
I actually don’t think that by now it matters much for Sage if the Bearer is hostile or not towards her. Too angry to see any difference, you know?
I think the moment after which it really matters how the Bearer acted towards her will only come after she finds out what really happned to Saxon. By now she seems too focused on her anger and grief…

How long can some people harbor anger toward someone who not only avoids confrontation, but also makes attempts to look after them and even protects them though?
I guess there is that chance she could see such actions as the Bearer acting like a coward or gets even more angry that the Bearer can (seemingly) pretend that nothing is wrong. But there’s also a chance that she could end up feeling conflicted because the Bearer isn’t acting in a way that matches her (possible) misconception of them. She’s probably built up the Bearer to being this heartless, cold, inhumane, and all-around despicable person; so if the Bearer ends up behaving in a kind, compassionate, patient, and very HUMAN manner, she might end confused about how she’s supposed to react around them after a while. Not saying she will stop feeling grief about her brother until she knows the full truth, but Sage may end up finding it hard to constantly be hostile to someone who is nothing like the horrible person she has built up in her mind.
It’s hard to tell right now. As I said before, we’ve met her grief and anger, but we’ve barely met Sage yet.

The reverse here and you’d be sorely disappointed by “daddy” Hades. After all this is the guy who can play the considerate dad to Aeson but thinks a half-hearted “uncle” act was “good enough” for us. I mean the guy couldn’t even bring himself to admit he was our “father” back when it might have mattered, not even after the mc manifested “magic” and the whole muggle jig was essentially up anyway.
Furthermore he doesn’t seem to realise that while his behaviour might have been acceptable for a distant uncle it made him a deadbeat dad. He also cannot use the excuse I imagine Zeus would use the “I’m just out of touch/don’t understand mortal affairs and customs on this point” since his behaviour with Aeson seems to indicate that he understands fatherhood as a social concept just fine.
Of course my mc is of the mindset that “If you didn’t want to do it then don’t even try to do it now !”.
I agree and my mc honestly thinks that’s why Saint is doing it, cause he knows that we’re pathetically weak when the essence doesn’t decide to spontaneously manifest, which means he does it because he knows he can get away with it.
Of course for the moment (and probably for the next couple of decades at least) the power dynamic will in all likelihood be in Saint’s favour, still my mc would appreciate not having it constantly rubbed in his face.
Do you know something I don’t? Otherwise my mc is just very unhappy with his Demigod body “downgrade” right now, I wonder if we can scold the Olympus hospital staff for not doing any quality plastic surgery on us when we were in there anyway.
Yes, I call it downgrade because while it may technically have been a minor upgrade over his old one, he still hates it because it makes him look like a cheap knock off of Aeson and, unlike his old one, he’s definitely not comfortable with it, whereas he had obviously accepted his old “blocker” body.

I guess that I doubt Sage changing her opinion just because of the way the Bearer acts (at least on the outside) is because she seems rather stubborn? We didn’t see much of her that’s true, but what we saw seemed to be someone who is rather determined…or at least gives me such vibes. That’s why I’m not sure if her starting to doubt MC’s guilt is already enough for her to _admit _ that MC could not be the the right person to aim her anger at, at least until she finds the true culprit.
It’s also possible that for her being angry and hating the Bearer, aiming for revenge is a way to avoid dealing with her grief.
Yup, Saint is playing a long game and it was beyond time to take him off the board. ymmv but that is my opinion. Too many “accidents” happen around Saint …

I’m not saying she’s going to completely stop being hostile; only that Sage will probably show signs of wearing down after a while (maybe not in Artemis’ Trial, but a little later on down the road).
I certainly can’t see Sage fully giving up until the truth comes to light. I’ve joke about it before, but she does show some behavioral traits that remind me of tsunderes: she’s very determined, can certainly be hot-blooded/temperamental, may have too much pride to admit to anything (especially if it means admitting she was in the wrong in some way), and this all possibly stems from the fact that she is probably one of the more emotionally guarded ROs that the Bearer can interact with (not that she’s the only one; I get the feeling almost ALL the ROs may be emotionally guarded on some level. Just that Sage is the most hostilely evident). But her conflicted feelings could lead her into taking action against the Bearer almost halfheartedly and actually starting to help the Bearer in some way.
There’s no telling how long it will take, but something tells me when the time comes and Sage opens up to the Bearer (whether she’s a friend or the RO that someone is pursuing), it’s going to be a daunting yet subtly powerful scene to see her let her wall down enough that the Bearer can start coming in closer.

Wow, this thread exploded in such a short amount of time. Why did this have to happen when I went to sleep?
In terms of Saint…yeah, it’s only for the purposes of the playthrough that I’m allowing Saint to do something like touch me with no warning or provocation. Apparently that’s what social people do though, so I’m rolling with it.
I’ve never actually given much thought to sensitivity of touch and my experience with it; my entire life I’ve has severe problems with people touching me, even my family. But to me, that’s always been a side effect of being crippingly anti-social. Of course autism does classically have those problems which I would expect from the people on this thread whom have stated such things beforehand.
@poison_mara nobody thinks you’re a psychopath in real life; it’s your character that’s the psycho. I’m sure you’d be very lovable in real life.
And the bit about transgender people and the boob-deflating fiasco I’m not even going to touch.
I’ve heard some weird shit on this thread, but I don’t think there’s anything as weird as that. Congratulations.
@idonotlikeusernames life goes by quicker and quicker; people always think they will never get older when they’re children, but when you’re older you wonder where it went.
And the headcanon that Hades gave you the original template is a headcanon of your own volition; if you want to scold daddy dearest for such a thing as well as the Olympus medical staff, that would probably be fun to watch.

In Spain is not normal touch people breasts we kiss in the cheek two times if a woman is involved w on w, m on w. Males normaly shake hands or do stupid shaking figures like monkey s to show their virility. If you touch a breast and the breast owner is pissed you would end singing opera or in a children church chorus. Touch breasts = sexual assault in Spain. I am seeing that gor others cultures is ok.
It is over here, too, in England, unless you’re already romantically/sexually involved with someone.
…Didn’t we just confirm Saint isn’t, and will never be, a romance option? And this is like, what, when you’re barely friends? So uh, yeah, it’s unintentional sexual harassment at best, intentional sexual assault at worst.
