The Hare Trap Chronicles - [X]

This story is not one of mine, but one submitted to me in series by my beloved 🐇 Anon. Follow the story of Ignacy, a hedonistic young aristocrat-turned-vampire, and his many lifetimes of misadventure as he lives out his centuries as the 'black sheep' of his family's estate.

Conversations overheard by a Living Weapon 

  • “Ah, shit. Damaged again?”  “Yeah. Boss isn't gonna be happy that it'll be out of comission.”
  • “It almost got killed out there today. That would've been annoying paperwork.”
  • “Heard it obeys every command.”  “Think it'll kiss my boot?” 
  • “Just set the bone. Don't think the thing even feels anything.”
  • “Fucking ugly mug it got there. Looks like it was shredded by a lawnmower.”  “Right? Is it too much to ask for to have a mindless thing with a pretty face?”
  • “Stupid thing lost their gun in the fight. We should send it into the next one without one. Should teach it not to lose our shit.”
  • “What's his name?” “Who? Oh, that's not a person. Listens to any name as long as you look at it. Watch. Hey, fuckass. Come here. See?”
  • “Look at it. Big fucking idiot. Can't even change its fucking clothes. It's like a deadly toddler.”

The subtle lower jaw trembling and lip-quiver of a character beginning to shiver uncontrollably but still able to suppress the larger full-body quaking by tensing their muscles and to keep their teeth from outright chattering by clenching their jaw- for now.

white fantasy authors: okay so white people are from normalsberg and all nonwhite people are from the mysterious mystical kingdom of mystery world where the sands are mystical and weird. and also theyre ugly ass orcs

fantasy readers: this is fucking awesome. this rocks. youre so good at this man

nonwhite fantasy authors: so the knight is a black woman, and there are no orcs,

fantasy readers: okay what the fuck. can we stop bringing contemporary politics into everything. ugh. this sucks. i dont like this

Do you know how weird it feels to casually make future plushie plans and feel like I’m thriving with my art career while ICE is threatening to go door to door for “immigrants” and “criminals” (visibly brown people) and I have to carry proof I’m American with me every time I go out? I say this specifically here because I know it’s a majority white American website. Like I already thought of who I would call and go stay with if I were to be deported lol. I’ve soothed myself with “maybe it wouldn’t be so bad as long as I don’t get shot at or disappear”. And it’s just annoying because my white peers do not have shit like this weighing on their mind, they can choose to just fucking draw

I cannot emphasize how much I’m literally a US citizen who speaks good english (with an accent, but it’s something) and these are the thoughts I’m having. Imagine how it feels when you’re actually an immigrant and you can barely parse what the masked trigger-happy asshole with a gun is screaming at you.

okay, you know what? Running away shouldn’t be a crime. It shouldn’t be dangerous, either. Any kid should be able to leave their parents if they want, for any reason. No I’m not kidding.

“But Rue, where will these kids stay? Do you want them on the streets?”

of course not. In an ideal world, a kids would have multiple adults other than their parents they could look to for care, but I recognize that that will never be a reality for every single child. So: youth shelters, if they have nowhere else to go. There should be clean, warm shelters where anyone under 18 can stay for as long as they need, no questions asked. (And of course shelters that aren’t just for kids, but we’re talking about youth rights right now)

“But Rue,” I hear you say, “what if some moody teenager runs away after an argument?”

First of all, I’d rather a thousand moody teenagers run away than one abused child be trapped. Second, so what if one does? A kid needs time away from their parents, so they leave. The vast majority of them will get some time to cool down and then go back home, and if they don’t want to go back, period? Then nine times out of ten, they have a good reason. (Because yes, as hard as it is for you to believe, kids are humans who have common sense.)

“Okay, but what about the one time out of ten the kid doesn’t have a good reason?”

Then the kid doesn’t have a good reason. It doesn’t change anything. If someone wants to break up with their partner because of something stupid, you wouldn’t say they legally shouldn’t be able to. (And if you would, then you’re just a bad person.) No one should have to be in a relationship, romantic or otherwise, that they don’t want to be in.

whumpees with mantras!!! whether it be positive (They’re gonna rescue me someday, it’ll be over soon) or negative (I deserve this, they’re not coming back for me, whumper is right). it could be something they came up with themselves, or it could be something whumper is forcing them to say!!

just!!! a whumpee repeating the same thing over and over (especially during torture/punishments)

something i wish more fantasy media had is ridiculous extreme polytheism. EVERY god is real and the power difference between some of them is insane. at the low end you have minor folk deities with a few hundred followers and then you also have, like, hp lovecraft shit at the other end

the gods are in here killing and eating each other and shit and it’s ridiculously erotic

this is why i gave my protagonist like four romantic interests and counting from different castes

edit: i read polytheism as polyamorous but i stand by what i said

more fantasy media should also have polyamory too tbh. like what do you mean you’re in a high fantasy world with completely different culture and religions but you’re still bound to a eurocentric christian ideal for relationships. stop that

Top Ten Ways for a Hidden Injury to be Revealed

(In no particular order)

  • Whumpee collapsing in front of Caretaker(s) (ah the classics)
  • Whumpee hissing/wincing/crying out/etc. when someone or something bumps against their injury
  • Bloodstain(s) soaking through clothing
  • Caretaker(s) finding evidence that Whumpee's been injured (the scene where the injury occurred, video recording, bloody clothing, etc.)
  • Whumper who witnessed/caused the injury 'mentioning' it in front of Caretaker(s)
  • Whumpee's shirt/etc. accidentally riding up and revealing bandages/blood/bruises/etc. (Alt: the injury-concealing clothing being torn off/etc.)
  • Whumpee moving in a way that aggravates their injury and being unable to hide their reaction
  • Whumpee just plain 'fessing up to it
  • Whumpee claiming "it's not that bad" and it can wait, only for Caretaker to find that yes it is that bad when they finally check it
  • Caretaker walking in on Whumpee taking care of the injury themselves

If your favorite 'injury reveal' isn't listed, please feel free to add on!
