Well, is the incest in the book?
If it isn't, yeah, that's pretty fucking dumb.

Pretty sure Rome had underage incest. What age was Octavian when he was banging his sister? .
>>63233626
Well ancient people were incestuous shits IRL and it was treated as disgusting even there so I'll excuse that.

Maybe--but let's imagine this. If Tolstoy, one of literature's dubbed 'Greatest Novelists' ain't safe from an artistic ass-fucking, who else might be up for grabs?
'Call me Ishmael. I once loved a man name Ahab. Coming to HBO this summer.'

I don't know what you are talking about. Do you mean her brother or step brother, I don't remember anything.
Step shit is not incest.
