I'm working my way through the Hellhound tag (i love them sm) and I keep seeing mentions about the list of functions and qualities the various hellhound forms need to meet. Is that listed anywhere? Could we see it, or would it be spoilery?

Thank you! (I, too, love them sm)

As far as the functions go, I don't think there's anything about them that's too spoilery, but this got long so I'll put it under the cut.

Basically, the "functions" and "qualities" that I've mentioned relate to how difficult it'll be to code different versions of the hellhound into the game. Now, there isn't a written/set list perse (so, sorry, already not sure I can provide a satisfactory answer but I'll try my best), it's more that I know the things the hellhound has to do and then each form can't be too different or unique that it requires a lot of extra coding (like, for example, I've said that I won't do skunks or frogs in the past because skunks add too much variation with their scent and spray and frogs add a new method of ambulation—hopping around—and can't do basic things I need the hellhound to do). But for the most part it's an intuitive thing so it's hard to try to quantify all that stuff for a list.

To picture/understand it kind of like I do, you basically strip down the animal types to their component parts. For instance, the capybara and the goat (both members of the large category). Both have four legs and move more or less as expected for a creature of their size, both can bite and attack things, both can express affection with similar actions, both can see and hear, etc. There are things which make each of these creatures unique (like the rareness of the capybara and the horns/hooves of a goat) but for the most part those are cosmetic and don't come up as often as something like a skunk's stench would.

It's also worth noting that while there's a set list for you to choose from with your hellhound's form, that doesn't mean these forms are the only ones hellhounds can take. For example, I think I've said "no" before to the idea of Z's hellhound being a hyena, but I've also mentioned that the Secret RO has a hyena hellhound. Additionally, other hellhounds could appear as tigers or mice, etc. Those just don't fit into the size categories that I work with when coding.

So, I guess it's less "does this creature have X, Y, or Z features" and more, is it similar enough to this other stuff that it won't be a pain to code.

Now, I can show you all the different tags (or "qualities", I guess) each hellhound can have, what each tag means, and which tags each form has, but I don't know if that answers your question. Maybe it would? Honestly, not sure if this has answered your question at all 😅

Anyways, shit, I hope all that makes sense. Please let me know if it doesn't or if you would want to see the tags! 😁

How did you get into the Locked Tomb series?

One of my irl friends said, "Hey, have you heard about these lesbian space necromancer books?" When I said no, he proceeded to give me his best, most incoherent attempt at a spoiler free explanation.

Let's just say I was intrigued. I borrowed the ebooks from him and tore through them in about two days, with very little sleeping involved, after which I immediately made this tumblr and began shouting about Ianthe for all to hear like a weirdly horny town crier.

Thanks for the ask!

Do we combine stuff from the kiss prompt list? Maybe campfire for a bet with whoever you want

A Kissing Prompt List

“Live a little,” Roach gives their usual grin, half empty beer bottle in hand, the campfire in the low light casting highlights across Roach’s face.

Jonny swears there’s something a bit… off about how the campfire catches their eyes.

“Aren’t we all a bit old for truth or dare-” Jonny sighs, pulling his jacket a bit tighter despite the warm summer air.

Why did he agree to be outdoors like this?

Lucas leans into his shoulder a bit more.

Oh yeah, that’s why.

Roach laughs at that, and Jonny swears for a moment there’s something a little weird about that one too.

Lucas gives him a nudge, “I’ll make sure Roach keeps his pants on this time-”

Roach sighs, “Oh come on Newman where’s the fun in that-”

Jonny feels Lucas’ hand on his knee.

“Fine-” Jonny sighs, “Who goes first?”

Roach grins and Jonny realises the neck of the beer bottle is pointed squarely at him, “Really?”

“Really,” Roach takes a swig. “Dare-”

Jonny raises an eyebrow, “I thought I pick which one I do-”

“Nope,”

Jonny sighs, “Fine, out with it-”

“Kiss Newman-”

“What?”

“You heard me-”

Lucas chuckles.

Jonny presses his lips to Lucas’ cheek, “There-”

“Oh c’mon-” Roach shakes their head, “That’s not a kiss,”

Lucas and Roach share a look for a moment, “C’mon Jonny I don’t need to show you, do I” Roach leans in as much as they can manage.

Jonny can’t work out if their target is Lucas or himself, he’s not fond of either option.

“Woah!” Jonny leans back, almost a little too far almost coming off the log he’s sitting on.

“C’mon-” Roach pokes Jonny in the nose, “I’m being nice, you like Newman, this is an easy one-”

With a huff Jonny curls his fingers under Lucas’ chin and presses his lips to his.

He only intends it to be a peck but Lucas leans in a little and it lasts just a little longer. For a moment Jonny wants to make it a bit more but then.

“That’s more like it-”

Jonny pulls back, arms crossed. “That good enough?”

Roach shrugs, “For round one, yes-”
