agreeing with this person and you, and adding that the people who didn't know that it was lk's friend in the costume, still won't know after seeing your art
you never said it was him, ppl could say it's a skiz member in the suit in your art and no one would be able to prove them wrong based on your art and caption
right!!! it could be taken in so many other ways -- selfcest, literally just lbt as an actual being (lol), or yes another 5kz member borrowing the suit (which was actually one of the captions i thought of but opted out for having no captions at all) !
i wont deny that it still has the implications of his friend because that is public knowledge now, but harassment, stalking, and invasion of privacy is definitely not what this is !

i feel so bad for u😭 i didnt know what i thought was just a cute lil funny l33b!t would cause this whole thing. like i get where people are coming from but at the same time, its just some silly artwork on the internet, please dont ever try to connect this to actual weirdos who go out of their way to st4lk him..

re: the leeb!t/fanart of a private figure conundrum (just my opinion): he’s only ever presented himself publicly in that one context in costume at the concert, and that was the context you engaged with. To hunt down images of him and use those would def be an invasion of the privacy of someone not choosing to be in the public eye. You haven’t done that tho, youve taken only the public appearance he’s actually given and consented to and made fanart of that. Not trying to do the “you interacted with that media more ethically than anyone else” thing lmao but I think in regards to respecting the boundaries of a private figure you’re totally fine.
!!! thank you for this, i also had this in mind but i felt like i couldnt articulate it as well. juggling ethics in the rps sphere is never easy TT;;; i think i could argue abt the logistics of it all (using only lbt within the fa, them willingly divulging the info that its his friend in there in a public space and would know the pros and cons of doing so, etc) but at the end of the day i think the work itself is so vague that it barely has any ties with this guy. its literally just lk and lbt goofin

even though your art of meemo and his friend can be seen as a joke since he's in a rabbit costume, there are a concerning amount of people harassing/stalking this non celeb guy's instagram, found out his real name and relationships, just because they're convinced he's dating meemo
yeah, i know its your account, you can do whatever you want, but as someone who loves your art i hope you take this reality into consideration before drawing them together again in a sexual/shipping way
hi! i totally get that and i don't condone stalking him At All in any capacity.
While i never really had any plans of drawing anything related to him again, i also dont think its quite ?fair ? to equate drawing fanart -> to the actual problematic behavior of stalking and harassing some random guy that just so happens to be friends w a celeb. its nearly the same argument that All shipping is bad bec there will be bad eggs who take it too far and shove it into actual idols faces, but with the extra nuance that this Isnt a public figure that we're talking about.
i hope you get that im (and other creators are) not directly responsible for the behavior of people who doesn't know how to properly navigate fandom spaces.
however, i understand that it might fuel the wrong people so i agree with you and see where youre coming from! its a topic that has a lot of nuance,, even if my intentions were harmless, i get that it might enable the wrong people further.
thanks for reaching out!

that little scar lk has on every of your art has a little story? i love how u stick to it
thank you!!!! its really just based on how lk apparently does have a scar somewhere in that area irl! ive been drawing it since like,,, 2021 now i feel... ive been trying to incorporate more of the other members marks in my artworks recently too! i just think theyre neat and little bits of their past that they shared to us :3
