Chrumblr Whump Day 2: Kneeling

(Character is a Redwall OC. I am currently working on just snippets of character things since I can't imitate Jacques's style well enough for my own liking.)

Bell kept their head down as their captor paced around them, flicking her tail side to side. “Well,” the hooded cat said eventually, coming around to stand in front of the small mouse. “This one will have to do.” She settled one large paw on Bell’s shoulder and looked down with glittering eyes. “So, what do you say, mouse?” Bell opened their mouth, but their voice had deserted them. The terror was coursing through their veins. Where was Ruskin? The figure laughed. “Aw, this one’s terrified,” she said to someone in the trees behind the small camp. She patted Bell roughly. The blow almost sent them tumbling backwards. She laughed at their attempt to keep their feet, and grabbed the front of their tunic. “I think that means you’re coming with us, now.” Bell tried to pull away as she started pulling them along, breaking free of her strong grip suddenly and stumbling back. “No,” they tried to say, but the word died in their chest again. Helpless rage clouded their vision as they turned and ran—straight into another figure rising out of the darkness and tripping them with an extended spear pole. Bell curled, trembling, as the large squirrel stepped out of the darkness, looming over them. “Looks like you picked up a feisty one, eh, Serena,” he sneered, kicking at Bell with a footpaw. “Shut up,” the cat one snapped. She grabbed Bell by one arm and hauled them upright. The mouse went limp instinctively, hoping that Serena would drop them, but she held them upright until finally, Bell relented, and kept their feet under them. In the darkness, a bird called. “We need to go,” the squirrel muttered. “Before this mouse’s friend comes back.” Serena waved a paw. “I know, I know. Just a minute.” She stared down at Bell. “Kneel,” she said eventually. Bell didn’t move. Ruskin had to be coming. He shouldn’t have been gone in the first place—they remembered falling asleep curled up against him. If they could delay— “I said kneel.” Serena set a paw on Bell’s shoulder and forced them down. “Good mouse. Now, look at me.” She tipped Bell’s chin up with her other paw, forcing them to meet her glittering, dancing eyes. “You won’t resist me now, will you?” she asked. Bell swallowed nervously. Their eyes darted to the side, and Serena hissed. “Look at me, mouse.” Her voice hung in the air, sickly sweet. “Your friend won’t be coming back.” They met her gaze again reluctantly. Their voice finally caught a foothold in their chest. “What did you do to him?” they whispered. She laughed. “Nothing at all,” she said lightly. “But you know, sometimes young squirrels his age, they just… vanish.” Her eyes seemed to get bigger, and Bell found that they could not look away. The paw was heavy on their shoulder, trapping them just as surely as the eyes. From where they were kneeling, there was nothing they could see, other than the cat and her cloak. Everything was massive, looming. The trees around seemed hushed. The cat seemed to be growing bigger, her eyes filling Bell’s vision, then their mind, until even the thought of running was pushed away. Eventually, Serena laughed a dainty, tinkling laugh. “There’s a good mouse,” she crooned softly. “Now, you’re coming with me.” Bell nodded faintly, and in a daze, got to their feet, and followed the hooded cat through the woods, away from their camp.

i dont like the idea that kids these days are doing their fandom rps with ai chatbots. that's how you're supposed to make lifelong friends as a weird really online teen.

"chilchuck isn't a twink, he's a DILF!" now i get why you're saying that but i feel like you've maybe forgotten what chilchuck tims canonically looks like

i'm sorry but this man is a twink. also DILF isn't a body type it's a status (and technically, an opinion) so he can be both

"but he's middle-aged!" look at him. look with your eyeballs. his age has nothing to do with the fact that he Looks Like That. he's a twink. the sooner you accept this the less angry his fandom will make you

edit bc this post has become the bane of my existence:

FAQ

Q: wtf do you mean he's a dad? he looks like a kid. A: he is 29 years old, and a half-foot. half-foots are dungeon meshi's halflings, or hobbits, or whatever you want to call them.

Q: wait, if he's 29, why the fuck are you calling him middle-aged? A: half-foots have an average lifespan of 50 years. chilchuck was originally drawn with grey hairs (you can see that in the manga fullbody) but the mangaka gave up on that over time. he's middle-aged for his race.

Q: hey, doesn't that look like a little angry face on his boot in the manga drawing? A: yea kinda

💖 Day 3.5 is now available! 💖

For the last couple of months, only Server Boosters had access to the 3.5 update... Buuuuut now it's available for everyone to play in the 14DWY Discord — and soon itch.io once I'm happy with the QA and state of the game — so please don't feel pressured to join unless you want to!!

The full devlog + even more screenshots are under the cut ^^

What's been added to the 3.5 version?

📺 Streamer Mode!

I've been told that it's difficult to stream and monetise age-restricted videos on YouTube and Twitch, so I added an option to remove the sexual content and strong language used in the demo.

Now y'all can invite Ren into your bed for cuddles without putting your streamer career on the line /silly /lh

This won't affect the 18+ rating or dark themes/elements of the game, however! Although Streamer Mode will prevent you from seeing any "gruesome" CGs in the future, most of the core elements of the game will still be tied to the choices and decisions you make. So you won't miss out on the overall experience by using streamer mode!!

⚙️ Custom Pronouns!

It only took me one entire year to get around to it, but you can finally choose your own preferred pronouns (or use a set of pronouns instead)... At the cost of being able to change them mid-game ^^;

Since the original pronoun screen wouldn't update until a new scene was displayed, I temporarily disabled the feature. But once I find a workaround, I'll bring it back!

💗 Choose how others perceive you!

You can now choose how the cast and narration perceive you! Originally, the narration was kept strictly gender-neutral (outside of pronouns and genitalia picked by the player), but this will soon change in future updates.

For more clarity: you don't get to choose the words specifically, but you can choose between masculine, feminine, and androgynous terms!

📋 Separate top and bottom genitalia!

You can now choose your tatas and pps separately! >:3

Alongside that, you can also choose your preferred body type!

I removed the "both" genitalia option because a few players still assumed it was an obscure version of "intersex". That wasn't my intention and I don't want to mislead anyone, so I took it out for now ^^;

I also didn't want to include a screenshot of the new genitalia choices in action (because it's NSFW), so y'all get the same character menu screen for the nth time instead lmao

📱 Relationship Screen Overhaul!

You can now change your own status for more immersion, and long-term Server Boosters will eventually be able to submit and use their own icon within the game as well!

Stalking finding your friends has now become easier by using "Buddy Maps"; a new app that allows you to see the location of all the cast members!

I want to offer players more incentive to check the relationship screen since they tend to miss the status updates, so hopefully this might help ;v;

It also says it "updates every few hours" so folks don't go overboard and check every 5 seconds to see where Ren is gdsghf (also keep in mind that he's a hacker lol)

🖤 Additional Scenes Update!

Day 2 received a brand new CG!!!!! Originally, I planned on only adding a few CGs sporadically throughout the game, but it didn't feel right to leave Day 2 so... empty... so I added a brand new CG to (hopefully) make things feel more balanced and natural!

If you decline Teo's offer on Day 3, Leon will now call and try to convince you to reconsider. However, players are still allowed to decline, and if they do, they'll reach a dead end.

After listening to feedback on itch, I changed some of the dialogue during Days 1-3 to make it seem more consistent! They're only small changes though, so it's honestly not worth looking for sdgjssga

🎶 Updated BGM and SFX!

I wanted to try out a different style of music to see if it fits the vibe of 14DWY more! The BGM features more acoustics to suit the "beachy" theme of Corland Bay, though I made a conscious effort to include piano elements as well to stay true to the original!!

I figured it'd be better to give players a live example before I make a poll (to see if they prefer the change or not) and publish it to Itch.

Some new SFX have also been added, though it's very minimal and honestly not that noticeable.

How to download and play the update?

(warning: clicking on the following links will open Discord!!) To download the Day 3.5 update, simply join the 14DWY Discord server, verify your age, and visit the "14dwy-updates" channel!

Alternatively, you can also wait until the update is publicly released on Itch to play it as well!! (It normally gets released shortly after a round of QA testing/getting feedback from the server, though I may release it earlier if I feel like it hehe ^^)

Enjoy!!

[egophiliac]

starting off with an amuse-bouche of some of my initial favorite bits! y'all, this update was WILD.

[apollos-boyfriend]

my favorite part about the dsmp as it currently stands is that since the creators are done they’re over it you can just say whatever the fuck you want. there’s no possible future canon to dispute it. there’s no creator who’s going to step out of the woodworks because they’re not touching that again with a 30 foot pole. i can say the most insane bullshit never be proven wrong and i think that’s beautiful

[dendrochronologies]

there's so much to read. there's too much to read. can everybody stop publishing for a few years while i catch up.

[churchyaoi]

been thinking about these two a lot lately

Happy pride from Adam and Steve, my t4t gay vampire and werewolf!!!

They're from my webcomic. It's good. I'm not biased. It's funny and gentle and they time travel to a new location every full moon, where there's a new little mystery to solve!
