I still don’t know what genre this shit is pffkfjh literary style fantasy horror ?/?? big shrug. my sense for what constitutes horror is kind of weird like yeah psychological/cosmic horror okay but then I hear people argue about what they think horror is and I get so confused. As far as fantasy I’m not bothering with a ~unique magic system~ it’s pretty simple lmao because it’s all just a backdrop for the character shit which is why I say literary but I also know that’s more a style not a genre unless you’re talking about “commercial” which is so fucking weird to me. because like I know robin hobb is this character heavy but that’s just considered fantasy but her world building is way more complex lmao
like I guessssssss there’s tension of the horror aspect sprinkled in and the end I suppose would be fully considered a type of horror lmao but listen. Horror no longer scares me and rarely shocks me when I read it like Ever so I’m like. ?? I guess it is fkjhfjkfh and what trigger warnings does this shit need cause I think it might be a good amount. I mean horror or not (which it does have it) it deals more with the same kind of themes good horror does, soooo
