hey not to drop box you like, immediately and before this character even exists but were you thinking about the sweaty t shirt experiment when you created archie bc he kind of reminds me of the sweaty t shirt experiment

(that's the one where people smelled a bunch of sweaty shirts and researchers found that if you had a different MHC allele (which codes for a component of the immune system) from the person their sweat smelled nice to you but if you had the same one it just smelled rank and unfuckable)

I HAVE HEARD OF THAT EXPERIMENT and then forgot about it so it wasn't something I specifically had in mind when writing Archie but THANK YOU FOR REMINDING ME. That's precisely the kind of vaguely uncomfortable material I want to reference for this terrible child.
