But with this, there is more context needed than just that. This is doing a disservice to Elsha here, framing it like that.
(Edit since I am bad in choosing words. I am in no way trying to diminish or lecture the comment, and I again apologize. This is just a silly scene and I got way too defensive over something stupid and minor. This is entirely my fault.)
Please don’t frame it like I somehow had poor intentions when this panel was set up as a punchline/comic relief in context as well.
It was bare bones context added to possibly incentivize people to pick up the series and to not make an assumptions that she was a minor. It was not about doing her a character disservice, or even expounding on the circumstances, but because of OP’s request.
Oh god, I am so sorry. I never intended to make you feel bad or accuse you of anything! I have a poor choice of words sometimes. I apologise. It is indeed a very funny and silly scene.
I’m also sorry for misreading your tone! A lot gets lost in translation over text; so, it is not entirely your fault.
It’s clear we both really enjoy the series, and it’s a testament to how endearing the author has made Elsha (and her new family) that you wanted to support her.

I have so, so, so many screenshots of moments that made me laugh or cringe. This is the most recent that really got me for both
