I get why people dislike poly in RP, and it sucks that people have used it to just...play infidelity with their OC?

One of my OCs is in a poly relationship, but its with two other friends of mine/their OCs, and we got together and talked about it first before making it a thing.

But the thing is, Stix and Drixzy's relationship functions *better* with Zubert, because while Drix and Stix do love and care for each other, they're not entirely honest w one another? They're both worried what the other person will think if they were completely open.

Zubert might not be the sharpest tool in the shed, but he's certainly the most emotionally intelligent of the group, and through that, all three if them function and grow better as individuals

I don't want to imply that Zubert does all the emotional labour, but the three of them work better having a second person to bounce off of?

Anyway idk where this thread was going, but I have an ot3 and it works because OOC we all discussed it first before implementing it and it's cute af
