If a big scary creature is kind, it is not scary
what about Creepy Good?
dammit why did you link me to TV tropes...
It's been eight hours, how ya holding up?
eventually fell asleep on the TV tropes article...
It really is like a DDOS attack for a human mind
I mean, if that thing in the example pic was consistently kind and helpful to me, I'd soon find it more ugly than creepy. Without the hair, I might not even think it's ugly
In the same way, if a lion decided I was their beloved human and consistently showered me with affection and appropriate gentleness, I'd quickly lose my fear of it
