#cool worms

[freechicken]

Sometimes you watch Bones, a TV show, and google every new thing the characters get excited about. These are called Lore-Drops. Because 9 out 10 times, it's an actual real-life exciting discovery!!

Kyle Weiss asked for a beach chimera over on patreon and so was born a little beach chimera made of a geoduck, a fat innkeeper worm, and a goose barnacle. she's beauty, she's grace, she's got 3 INCREDIBLY loose definitions of a face.

could I have made her out of more traditionally charismatic beach creatures? yes. but chaos reigns.

"What I'd do for you"

A little AU idea I had in which Nari and the Lamb end up being happily married for millions of years, new gods begin to rise to power, Narinder ends up going to challenge them and kill them thinking their just pests and then dies himself because only a god can kill a god. Then the Lamb finds out a little to late and is able to revive Narinder's soul but only fragments of his husbands memories, the Lamb already put in chains by the new deities who fear the power of death.

A cool swap if you will to how Narinder and the Lamb first meet, except the Lamb is much more charismatic and cheeky. Plus I got to explore the fog of Narinder's domain has when you first meet him in game and how the Lamb would use it to hide the true extent of what they actually are vs how Nari vaguely remembers them along side hiding the chains in their wool :D

I'd like to think a lot of badass battling ensues the more Narinder remembers because the crown begins to trust Nari more with the powers of it! And not having to be worried about him becoming greedy and unknowingly betray his husband as seen in the last image :)

It feels almost weird to me that I really struggle to compute HDG as a horror-adjacent setting like so many others do. I know that there is an inherent power imbalance in the vast majority of relationships within the setting, and that can easily lend itself to a feeling of dawning horror when the protagonist realizes that they are inherently powerless against whatever is about to happen to them, but ultimately the setting just... isn't very scary to me in the way that it seems to be for so many others.

Maybe it's because I haven't read as many of the more extreme horror-adjacent entries, or maybe its because the other settings in which I write are so much more bleak, but its just not why I come to HDG to write. Ultimately when I'm writing in HDG, there's an inherent positive slant to what I'm writing, because there's this idea that ultimately by the end of the story the characters will be in a better place than where they started. It might take forced drugging or brainwashing or any number of potentially horrific things to get them there, but at least in my estimation its ultimately going to be for their own benefit?

And again, maybe I just need to read some of the darker things folks have written, I know there's a handful of works by certain writers that are apparently much more extreme in how the dynamics between characters work, but ultimately HDG as a setting is one of wish fulfillment, both for submissives, dominants, and those in between. I can't see it as anything but hopeful, even if sometimes the big plants are quite scary.
