I spent my writing time today mostly revising this conversation to fit more in line with the seal-clubbing idea, because it was amusing. Maybe I'm overdoing it though.
I'll be writing more tonight, to include the base camp.
I'll be honest, I'm considering Valentine's romantic prospects right now, because I want him to feel good about himself and that includes finding non-platonic love in his life. (He needs platonic love too, that's still on the table.) Love's something he's struggled with due to his own personal issues and trauma, which will become increasingly obvious once I delve into how isolated he truly has become(we've already seen glimpses of that.) The problem is that I'm not coming up with any sincere ideas, which is jeopardizing that desire to let Valentine find healing in EVERY aspect of his life.
It probably shouldn't matter, because that's a distant future problem anyways. I just got reminded of it because of Mr. Bats getting a chance himself.
>>58622271Oh man. I feel so fucking bad for Fedorak. You're doing a damn great job making everything feel visceral and "real."
I hope to handle the conflict and instincts of the former humans as well as you and everyone else can when the time comes for me to tackle it.
