I sent the anon about NSFW stuff. I didn’t realize it was so recent, technically I’ve been here in this fandom for over a year (at least, maybe two) but I don’t personally like NSFW stuff so I try to avoid it and therefore don’t pay as much attention. thanks for explains it!

No worries! I get that the Rouncy Renaissance could've been jarring if you didn't have the context and don't like nsfw in general.

#rangercorpstherapy #ranger’s apprentice #rangers apprentice #I also would be confused if a fandom I have been a part of for ages suddenly got really horny I suppose

#i think you wish for a good ra movie / series and I don't think well be getting that #a show would get canclled (don't ask how i know I have a feeling for that type of think) #there are also just so many books no way we're getting them all in a movie #they didn't even make all the narnia books into movies #rangercorpstherapy #ranger’s apprentice #rangers apprentice

[rangercorpstherapy]

I hear a lot about RA servers on discord, is there some sort of master link-list? Or is everyone talking about the same 2 servers

there are two servers, a normal one and a nsfw one. I hope someone else can put the links here I don't have them on hand.

ok weird question, but like, virginity in these books?? it's the medieval period so it was customary and expected (and scandalous if you don't) to save yourself till marriage but like, Commandant Crowley Meratyn gives off major 'guy who fucks' energy so I supposed that it's just irrelevant??

also Halt and Pauline had sexual tension for 15 fuckin years, and Will and Alyss dated for 7 years, and Gilan and Jenny dated for-- my god they're STILL dating.

someone explain

the view on virginity and sexuality differs between the Early Middle Ages and Late Middle Ages, it also depends on if the subject is nobility or not.

At the start of the Middle Ages, there wasn't as much sexual freedom as nowadays but there was certainly much less taboo on the topic. People were still connected with their old traditions and ways even though they were introduced to/and or practising Christianity. There wasn't as much of a pearl-clutching 'oh no an ankle' sex fear in the Middle Ages as people think. Yes, clergy swore oaths of celibacy and nobility were expected to stay chaste (although this expectation rested more on women than on men). For noble families, it was important to be absolutely sure that that was your baby because you couldn't just do a DNA test. Kinda important if you want to keep the family in power and make sure the bloodline continues undisputed.

Back to the pearl-clutching, it was not sex people were afraid of. There was no taboo on nudity (partly because one didn't have much privacy back then) and sex was even a source of public entertainment, for example in plays or on fairs. It was more pregnancy that was the issue. Bastards weren't treated very well along with their mothers (many choosing to leave their children in orphanages), noble bastards were dealt better cards, they could inherit and would often be seen as valuable enough that they could be used in marriage pacts. This period of vague sex is ok just be careful came to a very abrupt end because of reformations in the Church. Remember what I said about clergy having to be celibate...yeah let's just say they were not doing that. To the point of having 'wives' and kids, not even sneakily, they lived with them in a house, like a family. This was an issue from average priest to bishop. One of the many reforms was meant to make sure that calibates were calibating and put stricter measurements in place. Nuns were forced to live more secluded (before they took a very active role in the life around the convent), and convents became closed off for outsiders. Through efforts from the Pope, sex became demonized and women were presented as evil seductresses and the root of all evil evil desire. I don't think it was the same reforms but around the same time all bastards were stripped of any claim to inheritance and even if fathers claimed them they could not be legitimized. Making having bastards/being one even more taboo.

But even with all that were the Middle Ages not the most anti sex period in western history. The idea of "having sex before marriage is the end of the world and God will strike you down and dance upon your remains we are scared to hold hands with the opposite sex" came during the 16th century with the rise of STDS and would continue well into the Victorian era.

Back to the question.

It's hard to say when RA takes place, having some more modern technology but still having many characteristics of the High Middle Ages (lack of agricultural reforms, strong feudal system and a lack of cities). I am guessing that when RA took place it was around the same time the reforms were spreading (give or take a few decades maybe).

So to finally answer the question:

Crowley is saving himself for nobody, fucked till his heart gave out that's why he died with a smile on his face. Front-row seats to those sex plays at fairs. Always complaining about the good ol' days when you could get laid without some guy in robes and a hat having an opinion about it. Also, he's gay so it's not like he has to worry about populating Araluen with many handsome redhead babies (although he is a bit disappointed he can't be of service in that aspect of course).

Alyss and Will (all the ward kids for that matter) are sooo bastards to me. Bullied by the other kids you say??? Needing special protection or else they would have no one in the world you say??? People knowing they fornicated in the vineyard would not make their reps worse. Those bitches did NOT care, they fucked around day and night and would just get shotgun married if it was necessary. What is anyone going to do? How dare you and your scary wizard boyfriend part of an elite scary people group whom we are all collectively deeply afraid of have sex!

Halt was heir to the throne and probably had some speeches about how not to waste his royal seed on just anyone, to be careful and was so culture-shocked meeting Crowley and Pauline that he needed 15 years to recover.

does anyone remember when gilan x selethen was getting hyped up in the fandom? like genuine question i promise i have no malevolent intent

#oh anon #you should know the asks i have #hidden in the dungeons #sometimes i go down to look at it #waiting for the day i can post #rangercorpstherapy #ranger’s apprentice #rangers apprentice

[rangercorpstherapy]

i agree so hard on the whorace isn't even that good ask!!!! finally!!!! they are just those two men the fandom ships with the defence that the women aren't well written enough and too boring. likeee if you can hallucinate a homosexual relationship between these two dudes you can absolutely headcanon some personality for cass and alyss. but that's just me ig. cralt doesn't fit this category because those are the faggiest fags I've ever seen.

The things I would do to Will Treaty if I had him in my bed. I’d make him forget his own name. I’d eat him out so throughly that I could still taste him for days after. We’d go for hours and hours until we’re both physically and mentally incapable of doing anything. He’d have no idea what hit him.

I like to think of the fandom like the Corps itself, which means somewhere out there we have a tired commandant trying to prevent infighting and sending some of us on missions. Poor guy :(

is it just me or does this fandom have a weirdly large amount of NSFW stuff? like we're a pretty small fandom overall but compared to any of the other small fandoms I'm in, RA has SUCH a massive quantity of adult content, which is kinda curious since this is still a children's series originally thoughts anyone on why this is?

normally I would send this into the world without comment but I feel like it's necessary now.

I suspect you're a newer member of the fandom since we had a NSFW Renaissance not so long ago. Basically: RA was very squeaky clean and not a lot of people dared to openly make NSFW because they didn't want to be deemed 'creeps'. Thanks to some prominent fandom members we now have a space where people can share NSFW work (headcanons, art, fanfics, discussions) without 'bothering' anyone who doesn't want to see it. All this 'weirdly large amount of NSFW stuff' is very very new in the grand context of things and, I'm not saying go away completely or die down, will wane in amount over the next couple of months. People (adults!) are just happy they're able to connect with the fandom in a way they wanted to but didn't feel they could before.

Historically the target audience hasn't mattered much to fandom or the amount of NSFW created for it (Harry Potter, ATLA, Disney movies, etc). The reason for this is just that sex is an intricate part of adult life and isn't going to leave someone's brain because they're thinking about a book written for children. Although I have to mention that canonically all the characters are either geriatric or middle-aged by now (people like to forget RR exists) so it's not like people are out there sexualizing kids.

I hope this cleared somethings up for you, maybe people can add to this if they have a better explanation.
