NEVERMIND REBLOGGING AGAIN BECAUSE THIS IS WHAT WE ALL NEED
It has been drilled into me that asking personal questions about potentially sensitive topics is rude, so I almost never inquire about them unless they are explicitly volunteered and just live in suppressed curiosity until someone opens up to me or I piece it together from clues. Or I die, I guess.
Which means I have… a lot of friends whose important details I just don’t fucking know. You could show up at my house one day with an alligator head and I just wouldn’t bring it up in case you were uncomfortable talking about it.
A lot of the time people will be like, “Oh, why does your friend need x accommodation?”
Fuck, I don’t know. They just do. Maybe a witch cursed them, maybe they’re half Vulcan and it reacts badly with their copper-based blood, maybe their parents were eaten by the M&M mascot… all I know is they can’t have blue candy. I have theories as to why, but unless they tell me directly or invite me to ask, I’m not going to pry. If they feel it is necessary for me to know, they will tell me.
That said, I’m pretty good at putting two and two together, so there have been many occasions where a friend will make a big confession to me and I… I definitely figured that out already but didn’t want to bring it up.
Ship is the kind of Fae who doesn’t learn things about you specifically so if they are asked directly they can say they don’t know without lying.

Oh I very much will snoop at all openly displayed information you have about yourself. Framed photos, books and trinkets on your shelves, atypical grocery choices, the stuff you have taped to your fridge… if you invite me into your home and don’t specifically ask me not to look too closely, I will gaze and learn about you silently. I won’t open cabinets or doors or books or anything, but if you’ve got books on talking to your kids about stillbirth coping with the loss of a child, well… I’m not going to bring it up, but I think I can guess why those blocks on the shelf next to a pair of baby shoes spell out ‘Jonathan’.
Does it count as snooping if I’m only looking at things openly on display, but observing them with the intent to learn things?
Also when I DO want to ask questions to clarify potentially important things, I worry that I’ll just come off like this:
