Here Be Dragons: the ‘Creator Chose Not to Warn’ Tag Is Useful, Necessary, and, Yes, Ethical by road_rhythm (orphan_account)

Summary
It's come to my attention that a subset of fandom doesn't like AO3's "Creator Chose Not to Use Archive Warnings" (CNtW) tag, and really doesn't like CNtW fics with actual surprises in them. So here is my point-by-point response no one asked for to each of the objections I've seen to CNtW's existence, variations on CNtW's use, and why tagging CNtW does not in fact make you an asshole (but harassing people for it kinda does).

Summary
“Can you work with him?”
Max has to take two drags of his cigarette before he can answer, and even then all he says is, “He knew I was the head chef, didn’t he.”
Charles has to have known. Even if the news hadn’t reached him that Max had taken over as the head chef of Taureau Rouge, he would not have travelled all the way from Paris to London for an interview at a restaurant without knowing who he’d be working under.
Still, Charles was the one who broke up with him. Max has to know, for sure.
“He knows,” Christian confirms softly. “He outright laughed at me when I called and asked him to come work at one of my restaurants. It was only after I said it was Taureau Rouge, working with you, that he agreed to come.”
Fuck. Fuck.
Max could’ve gone his whole life without knowing that. He probably fucking should have, because how is he supposed to be normal about it?
// Max and Charles have history, but it doesn't stop Charles from coming to work as Max's new sous chef. It does mean that everything changes for them both in the space of a single week.

Summary
“Why’d you even kiss that other guy?” Oscar can’t keep himself from asking. There’s an implication, somewhere—when it was me you wanted the whole time—but Oscar can’t bring himself to say it; doesn’t think the cocky-leaning words would fit in his mouth right.
Logan chuckles softly into his skin. “Liam thought it would be funny,” he says, words imbuing themselves into the thick of Oscar’s veins. “And I was hoping you’d see it.”
