* {{Jerkass}}:
** The prisoner who goes almost instantly from treating Danilo as a saint for feeding him, to insulting him as an abomination for being gay.
** Bertrand, a BoomerangBigot of an innkeeper who constantly insults Luc for being gay and eventually sells him out to the Church, despite having previously accepted sexual favors from Luc to help pay for Danilo's stay. [[LaserGuidedKarma Danilo brings his homosexual activities to the Church's attention in retribution.]]



* LightIsGood: Played with, subverted and reconstructed. Danilo is a white tiger, but he starts off as a self-loathing, frankly bigoted person, [[spoiler:though by the end he grows out of it, and even becomes a downright saint figure to the gay men he saved]]. The medieval Catholic Church sees white furred individuals as especially sacred and divine, [[spoiler:but that doesn't save Danilo from being persecuted by them]]. Archbishop Argile is a classical case of LightIsNotGood, being a white furred church official that is absolutely corrupt and vile.

Another anthropomorphic web novel by acclaimed author Creator/KyellGold, connected to his Literature/OutOfPosition series (and, consequently, to the Forrester series as a whole, including Literature/DangerousSpirits).

In France, young bisexual [[PantheraAwesome white tiger]] Danilo just receives news of his cousin's {{coming out story}}. Already bullied for being an anglophone in a french speaking country, this obviously doesn't go well for him. Already unconfortable with his attraction to men and uncaring about LGBT struggles, Danilo gets pissed off at his cousin for nonwittingly causing him to be mocked, and almost decides to cut ties with his friend Taye, a mouse who loves him and who he, too, is somewhat attracted to.

Then his cellphone falls into the Saone, and as the river floods over, Danilo wakes up back in time in 1508 A.D.. Thrust into the [[TheDungAges brutal, disgusting medieval environment]], Danilo is forced to confront a dangerously homophobic world. The race is on for him to return home, and to save Luc, a gay otter condemned for his sexuality.
