Content Violations Review: Fanfic Recs.Steven Universe

Flagging this per mdalsted. I'm not too familiar with Steven Universe outside of its reputation, but apparently according to ~mdalsted the Steven/Spinel shipfics cross a line akin to those that were purged from FanficRecs.Team Fortress 2 when the 5P reviewed that page all those years ago.

So... which fanfics in question are and what's wrong with them? "Shipping" doesn't mean much, and Steven is canonically at least 16 by Spinnel's introduction.

That question's for mdalsted to answer. He came up with the idea for this thread about a year-and-a-half ago.

I pinged him in the OP, and I PM'd him a few moments ago just in case.

Maybe instead should have asked Mdalsted to open the report themselves instead of doing it on their behalf if the problem isn't clear? Looking at their activity, it's unknown when they'll reply.

So, looking back on it, I don't think I made the right call. I had assumed that Steven was still a kid in those fics, but after actually looking at the summaries, I've come to realize that that's probably not the case.

We can shut down the question, I think.
