Follow up: making him young doesn't make him a twink. Making him a bottom doesn't make him a twink. Don't like the content? Ok, write fics where he's the toppest bear who ever topped! Read only fics where he's a feral hairy middle-aged man! Just don't police what others do

Follow up 2: we play with the same characters over and over. We need to have room for interpretation to do so because if we don't we better stick to canon sources. We have full control over what we write and what we read, trying to control what others do is a bit much.
Follow up 3: anyway all this discourse is for shit. If the canon source can take a thick Eskel and make him a lean young thing we can absolutely do whatever we want. Yes, I'm still bitter about that.
