In Atlantis, is there a stigma attached to fuller figures like there is on the surface? What's your opinion on them?
I could answer this straight-forward and point-blank, but I don’t think that’ll get the point across as thoroughly as I know I can, so congrats– I’m coming at this sideways and pulling what I pull at my students at the Conservatory sometimes. You’re welcome. lol
So the first thing to know is that Atlantis, at our highest point, is about 200 feet/61-ish meters below the surface of the water, and at our lowest point (or what’s currently considered our lowest point) is about 660 feet/201-ish meters below the surface.
Which means our ‘normal’ temperatures? Glubbing cold.
If it’s 70°F/roughly-21°C at the surface, then it’s about 59°F/15°C at our highest point (in Poseidonis) and roughly-34°F/1°C at our lowest point. That’s in the warm months.
If it’s roughly-55°F/roughly-13°C at the surface, then it’s about 44°F/roughly-7°C in Poseidonis and roughly-19°F/-7.3°C at our lowest point. Which happens to be winter in general.
All of this is to say, being curvy/bulky/fat/whatever-description-of-choice is NOT a bad thing in Atlantis and is generally seen as pretty damned attractive. If you’re bigger, you’re not freezing. And, oh yeah–
‘FROZEN-CHIC’ IS NOT A THING.
Because you know what’s not attractive in Atlantis? Freezing to death.
(The fact that there’s so many of us on the slim side is actually reely damned weird and can probably be put down to the magic that permanently altered all of us when Atlantis was sinking doing weird shark-shit without finesse since the stress was on survival over what would be a better physical result. And if I’m being blunt, I’m practically a gods-damned twig by atlantean standards.)
So, to finally get to your questions directly:
Is there a stigma to fuller figures in Atlantis like there is on the surface? Pfffft NOPE. (If you’re too damned skinny though, people are going to worry about you freezing to death or wonder if you’re eating enough.)
What’s my opinion on them? I’ve seen plenty of bigger people who I think are incredibly hot, but I’ve already got all the partners I can handle. (And I reiterate, I’m a damned TWIG.)
(And in case you were curious, yes the surface’s whole thing with being obsessed with skinniness– skinniness? being skinny? whatever english is WEIRD– is still freaking bizarre to me.)
