To be honest, I was thinking about ones where people uploaded short stories to the platform. I guess if you want a community focused on the act of writing, you have !writing@slrpnk.net and !furrywriting@pawb.social, which are about discussions about writing generally and writing furry stories respectively, and there are probably others that I’m too lazy to find.
Anyways, I am not the best person to find writing communities in general. For example, I literally found this post today, which lists a bunch of communities for short stories. I’m going to list them in order of most to least active, as well as adding my own findings (of communities of short stories where fiction could be appreciated).

- !tftt@lemmy.world (last post >200 days ago)
- !paranormal@lemmy.world (last post > 700 days ago)
So there are some.
Overall, it seems like I probably should have remembered literature.cafe as a whole existed when I made the first post. It also has a community for writing prompts.
If it really was a 4-year-old dating a 7-year-old, I unironically feel like that would be more comfortable, probably because “dating” between little children is kind of silly in my mind.
Overall, my take would probably be “An adult who deliberately gets into a relationship with a minor (like the friend’s ex) is kind of weird, while an established couple with a 3-year age gap (like Jessica/Vitor herself) is fine.”
