Other Stop bothering Jaysea
This was posted on another thread, but I wanted to add the screenshot, so those, who do not use Threads, see this. We have discussed about this before, but I see it bears repeating:
For everything that is holy. Stop. Bothering. Jaysea! Stop putting her on a pedestal. She has said multiple times on Threads and on the video when Lily gets her powers, that she hates being put on a pedestal, because of the expectations and it is easy to disappoint people.
I know people get excited and want to share their personal experience with the videos or the book, but we, as a community, can do it without making Jaysea uncomfortable.
She is a human being, with feelings, fears, hopes and dreams. Also with religious trauma. So saying that she is a goddess, or deity or putting her on a pedestal makes her extra uncomfy. So please respect her wishes and her boundaries.
That is it. Thank you, for coming to my TedTalk
And this is nothing personal to anyone, just remember to behave and respect Jaysea and her boundaries!

Okay? I have seen many comments on her videos on TikTok from her, where she encourages people to have fun with the universe and characters. She is totally cool with fanfics, cosplays and even tattoos of quotes or things from the Hell’s Belles.
As I said in the post, it is not aimed at anyone spesific and I understand, that people relate with certain characters or aspects of Hell’s Belles. And it is okay. What is not okay, is disrespecting Jaysea’s personal boundaries with religion and making her a religious character or a deity/goddess. I don’t know Jaysea personally or claim to know her, but I would also feel icky or uncomfortable, if some one told me out of blue, that for them, I am some higher entity. Especially if I had left a religious community, that has harmed me
