Somehow I'm particularly annoyed by that one team mate of Asa's. Not the lowkey homophobic guy with anger issues, it's a waste of breath to even talk about that dipshit, but the guy who heavily instigated the mess. He was I think pretty clearly implied to be queer himself, yet chose to be such an ass to Aurora. Whether Aurora would later turn out to actually be queer or not, throwing him under the bus like that, pretty much feeding him to the tiger by making him the prime target for locker room talk, stereotyping him and honestly even in a way sexualizing him, in front of a bunch of douchy cishet dudes... It felt kind of disappointing seeing him make a (presumed to be) fellow queer person so uncomfortable, when he should know how awful that can end. I know being queer doesn't automatically make us immune to being major assholes obv, and I know he did apologize later, but man, he got my blood boiling.
