where does the trope of unwilling hero even come from

@KitRedgrave « "His father gave him several severe beatings but it made no difference. Whenever the pain became too much for him he would start yelling "Girls! girls!" Afterwards, when the girls in the family got to hear about it, they made fun of him. "Why do you always call to us when you are hurt? I suppose you think we shall come and plead for you to be let off. You ought to be ashamed of yourself!" But you should have heard his answer. He said, "Once when the pain was very bad, I thought that perhaps if I shouted the word 'girls' it might help to ease it. Well," he said, "I just called out once, and the pain really was quite a bit better. So now that I have found this secret remedy, I just keep on shouting 'Girls! girls! girls!' whenever the pain is at its worst." »

@KitRedgrave « And he would often tell the little pages who waited on him, "The word 'girl' is very precious and very pure. It is much more rare and precious than all the rarest beasts and birds and plants in the world. So it is most extremely important that you should never, never violate it with your coarse mouths and stinking breath. Whenever you need to say it, you should first rinse your mouths out with clean water and scented tea. And if ever I catch you slipping up, I shall have holes drilled through your teeth and lace them up together." »

@KitRedgrave « He once said, "I must have two girls to do my lessons with me if I am to remember the words and understand the sense. Otherwise my mind will simply not work." »

@KitRedgrave « Girls are made of water and boys are made of mud. When I am with girls I feel fresh and clean, but when I am with boys I feel stupid and nasty. »

« This is something that no one but a widely read person, and one moreover well-versed in moral philosophy and in the subtle arcana of metaphysical science could possibly understand. »

kind of girl who ends her several hour long call with her girlfriend so that she can chat with her girlfriend on discord

@clayote@cybre.space i don’t take issue with it and sometimes the responses are interesting but i also wonder where all the people who do understand what i’m asking are

sometimes it feels like i am on a different wavelength from a lot of folks and most don’t have the patience to actually inquire further so their initial assumptions can be important

this is like 95% of my experiences asking questions of strangers on the internet

you ever ask a question on the internet and have people give you answers which are kind of on the same topic but not really what you asked for at all
