As an outsider, it seems like Sel and Than are the ones being aggressive and hostile. Then again, I don't have a full context for prior interactions. Still, from what I can see the lion's share of the name calling and accusations fall on these two. Hostility is the antithesis to cooperation; if peoples' attitudes about a problem are eclipsed by a desire to "win" an argument, they've already lost sight of a real solution.

When I bounced some ideas for a concept on the chat, the concepts were disregarded out of hand. I am not a newcomer to anime or fanons, so I'll just weigh in by saying, over-reliance on canon for ideas and obstructive attitudes when "helping" don't enable a creative community to thrive. The limited scope of a series cannot encompass the minutia of an entire world-setting. For example, where do humans grow their food in a world overrun by grimm? One might presume farming doesn't exist, and by extension a user could not create a farmer. This line of thinking is counterproductive. The absence of evidence is not the evidence of absence, and all that.

I think I'll hang out on this fanon for a bit longer, if only to test the water a bit more. If close-mindedness rules the day consistently, I'll find other haunts.
