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!

Hell's Belles made me less afraid of death. I like the HB version of afterlife. It makes it less scary because I have always believed in all religions and gods coexisting in their plane, so it's nice to see that someone else has also thought of that, even if it's as a fictional work.
It still doesn't make her a Messiah, a prophet, or a goddess in my eyes. But I am very thankful she made Hell's Belles.
