You chose the safe method. And got to practice Buddhism all at once =P! My gal's healed up after a while, as I said, I wonder if you'll have to redo it down the road. No harm, no foul though - I mean you do what you go to do to stay happy. I got a septum (among others, but a lot had to be taken out over time) and it's pretty much a 24/7 fidget spinner for me. I can't even imagine the joy of having a built in one would be. But that's my head, hahaha!
You look like you're living your best life though. I swear to god, when you play with fire you're just an overall happier person =P! But also these scenes typically have a certain vibe of love an compassion. One of my performer friends passed unfortunately a couple of years back. And they held a fire-ceremony for him. Was beautiful, but it really speaks levels on how loving these spaces are.
Also, I swear to god if you're unconventional in any way - all roads lead to sex. Tig Notaro did a joke about it a hundred years ago and as someone with no filter I always pray I don't crunch up anyone's toes too badly. But thankfully, I also try not to be an asshole in my day to day >.>!!!! GJ sis!
