>>8207550I definitely respect your feelings, here's how I feel on that matter and I hope it can help you feel a little less uncomfortable. Beyond her streams Lily is a fantasy that exists inside each of us, this fantasy is different for everyone because the rest of her life that doesn't occur on stream we fill in with what we want her to be doing. In that way my idea of Lily is different from your idea of Lily and both of our ideas of Lily are probably different from Lily's own idea of her character and that's ok, all of these ideas of Lily are perfectly valid. When you see someone talk about their own fantasies about Lily it does not invalidate your own, they might as well be talking about a completely different person. Your precocious, clever good girl (or whatever your personal vision happens to be) doesn't have to be involved in any fantasy you don't want them to be affiliated with because your view of Lily is your own, anyone who says something about Lily that doesn't agree with it doesn't know what they're talking about or must be talking about someone else. I believe there is plenty of room for other people''s visions to exist side by side and that they don't need to be in conflict even if they are contradictory. We all love Lily, that's why we're all here and that should be enough to unite us and allow us to see past our differences
