okay but in the subject of convincing a character not to pee somewhere embarrassing... what about someone who has different standards for when it's okay to wet themselves without embarrassment?
-you can wet yourself if you're outdoors. you're not trying to make a mess inside of a vehicle or business, and make some poor guy clean it up, but if you're outside, you can't mess anything up besides your clothes.
-you can definitely wet yourself if you're on vacation far from home. because like, you don't live in this town, so none of these people are ever gonna see you again. or if they do, it'll probably be a long time from now, they won't remember you, and even if they do... what are they gonna do, judge you for having an accident 5 years ago?
-you can wet yourself if you're on your way home. especially if it's at an unobtrusive time of day, like early morning or late at night. obviously you wouldn't want to go somewhere covered in pee, that's rude, but if you're gonna head home anyway, you're only putting yourself out.
-you can wet yourself if you did something that got you wet already. when you're wearing a wet swimsuit, or attending a theme park where you got on a water ride, or were otherwise in the splash zone, or it's heavily raining. what's a bit more wetness, really?
in general, this person just doesn't care that much about shame. if someone sees that they peed, oh well, they weren't exactly trying to hide it. they had to go. it was uncomfortable. they did their business, and that took care of it.
problems with this don't really come up that often... they're rarely caught in these situations to begin with. but if these standards clash with a more reserved and self conscious friend, it could be pretty entertaining. especially if this person just starts peeing without explaining their reasoning, and the friend starts freaking out about their modesty, which this person doesn't care about at all.
I love this so I’m sharing with the class
