"Aside from anything else, if you got a really upsetting power, having people joke about it (rather than, say, run away in fear) would be so reassuring."

Oh wow, this is such a good point, I love it. ♡♡♡ Like, you'd expect people to be terrified/repulsed/etc. and instead you would immediately be reassured that they're not, that it is/can be something non-threatening enough to laugh at. (Which obviously should still be tailored to the specific person and what their comfort levels are.)
