TanukiTycho

First day, officially, on the on the job and somehow Tycho nearly spends the entire break on others.

#WIPSnips #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts

You can easily imagine how taxing it can be and the urge to finally unbuckle the belt. So Okashi(the 4th[not in story]) had created a space in her domain that allowed Servants to temporarily stay for 1 to 5 days max, and catch their breath before returning to the field or home.

It sounds like a lot, but it's more like routine.
His roots are truly in the cabin with Drilltooth, but Moon Rabbit Services is a demanding service that requires rabbits to be on sight for multiple days, so once that times up and everything's being reviewed...(cont.)

Meanwhile, Tycho, if he's not in servants, quarters on a job or resting in Moon Rabbit Sevices temp rooms. He is usually found in some forest in a cabin with Drilltooth somewhere in(possibly) Iceland. If not spending time with his family in Monroe, in the apartment above the diner.

Murabaa has a nice place in Alexanderia where he's taken in his mum(by Horus' request), who's kind of always in his ear with a photo album of women who are eligible Bachelorettes, she think would be his type... he tries to brush it off, constantly saying he'll find the right lady on his own.

Sidra is Nomadic. She wants to stay in one place with people... but her Chaos Theory aura kind of always ruins anywhere she stays in too long even if she tries to tank the brunt of it on herself.

Repost this if Trans people should have Samus Arm Cannons (below, a diverse collection of implicitly trans people wielding trans pride flags and also huge scifi arm cannons)

Sorry, and thank you for allowing me to do so.

I just like to share my work, to tell the tales of the weird ass world, I've been able to create.

As Sidra had reached the gates of the city, she felt her phone buzz once in her pocket. She'd just gotten it out in time to catch a glimpse of the text's notification; "Text me, when you can step away-" the message cut off, and disappeared, she knew well who it was from, her Father, Set the Egyptian God of Chaos, War, and Storms. Sidra clicked the message twice as she passed the border walls of Alexandria, the message was quick and simple; "Text me, when you can step away from the Mortal Plains I wish to speak in person, in A'Aru." Sidra rolled her eyes, and shot back, "Why not in the Mortal Plains? If it's about the Enlightening, I'm voting No, I'm still standing firm on that, Dad." She almost immediately got A message back, "I know, you're as stubborn as me on that point, I respect that. But this isn't about the Enlightening vote. What I want to talk about is much more thorough then these little messages can handle." Set noted, in his message, "Is it about the Influx of Demons, in Power and Numbers? Murabaa beat you to that punch." Sidra noted as she made sure to keep moving, checking in front of her every so often. "No. It'll be something you're going to be more thrilled about." Now he had Sidra's full attention. Anything Set found 'thrilling' often meant something with a bit bloodshed, chaos, or warfare. "Well, I just finished restocking my rations, I'm entering Nitrian, and have nothing better to do. So... I can chat." Sidra messaged Set one more time, just as she reached the final border of Alexandria's governing zone. Just outside of it she could sand whipping into a small dust devil. Sidra put her phone away, and approached the storm, slowly it reached a height of eight foot, then slowed, and descended leaving a man-like, masked creature that stood in at eight foot, one inch.

Just a small snippet from one of the first chapters of the first book.

The Demon Redemption Program or "DRP" is designed for Demons who still have time to spend in hell, appeal to get their time reduced by joining Moon Rabbit Services, and serving gods.

The process of applying is tricky, and it's no walk in the park to get through. But it does teach a lot of skills.

Like I said; it's kind of easy to tell he planned on using the Tanuki. As for what happened between points A & B? It's a long story, I love. But my only clue to it is;

Even if we don't know it, sometimes we subconsciously send out smoke signals for help. It just takes an observant eye to see them.

Tycho backed up, "Don't you-" the squirrel started with a proud smirk, but that smile faded as Tycho bowed to it... now it seemed surprised for a moment, but regained composure as Tycho stood at full height again. "My apologies, sir! I am Tycho Banji. Fresh out the Demon Redemption Program- I volunteered for it, Okashi asked me to always mention that." Tycho explained in detail, there was a pause. "Tycho... Banji?" The squirrel repeated, Tycho began to shift uncomfortably, "Tycho, Rezala, Banji? The adopted son of the Rezalas who joined Okashi's staff as an understudy at Sixteen?" The squirrel asked, seeming genuinely interested now, abandoning whatever anger it had before, flipping it's mood immediately. "Er... Y-yes, sir." The Squirrel grasped his hand in both paws. "Let me apologize then! I didn't realize you were the Rezala joining our staff! You're just probably wet around the ears for this kitchen, first time working with more stunted stature staff, eh?" The Squirrels teased, jabbing his gut with his elbow. "I'm Drilltooth. It's a pleasure to meet you." Drilltooth introduced himself still holding Tycho's paw. "It's quite all right, I'm no one special-" That's when Drilltooth let go and spread his arms to emphasize his point. "No one Special?! Are you kidding?! The Gods love the Rezalas!" "They Do?" "Yeah! Rezalas Big Bites is a must-go-to stop for gods when they drop into Louisiana! I haven't gone in much too long myself- Say; it's almost Lunch Break, maybe I could show you around, and we could share a Rezala Creole-style Smash Burger, eh?" "That... sounds wonderful! I was worried about even beginning to ask for a tour of the kitchen." Tycho admitted meekly, Drilltooth quickly grasped Tycho's arm, then dashed up in the blink of an eye, riding on his back. "Oh don't be- I was just having a bad day till I met you. Everyone here is wretchedly nice to newbies."

I'm biased with this one, but I love Tycho & Drilltooth's first interaction. ANYONE could tell Tycho, Drilltooth, has alternative motivations.

(Additional context, the Demon Redemption Program lasts 2 to 8 years depending on roles your training for, Tycho was in it for 4yrs.)

I'll be honest. I don't remember what I based Sidra's armor on, but she rocks it well as the energetic "Red Lightning"

And yeah, this is a really old drawing if the lack of timestamp doesn't give it away.

Show me how you draw armor.

A Tanuki/Japanese Raccoon Dog smiling mischievously while loafing.

I love timestamping my work, even if it's handwritten or drawn because of the stacks of paper or (when I had a computer) the massive number of memory taken up on a folder. I can see how much I've done and really get perspective of how much I got done.

Even if some of it sucks.

Boring answer, I know. But depends on where you are. Some places have good layers of snow, and some just don't get any at all.
Some of it is hustle and bustle. Some just isn't all that exciting.

Context; I challenged myself to write from Tiamats' perspective, and 90% of the time They, as in a Group, are sharing a single avatar body.

Also I used the synonym "Authoritative"

Meanwhile, Murabaa will adamantly deny the dust bath thing... He doesn't mind taking regular water baths or showers, but his feathers feel quote; "heavy and unpleasant for a while." When he does, his Dust bath time is like a good hot shower to most people.

(3/3🧵[ Sorry for the extensive reply!])

I wouldn't worry too much about Tycho. There are some who prey on his kindness, and he recognizes it. But to him; "I get payed plenty enough on the clock. One or two favors off the clock won't kill me if I'm in the mood."

(2/3🧵)

She is a bit nitpicky... and used to attempt stunts she saw in movies but keeps her expectations of reality vs. animation in somewhat check. It doesn't stop her from attempting to fling or swing herself using the momentum and weight from swinging her 4 ton axe... and succeeding in a sense.
(1/3🧵)

Sidra's greatest pleasure is a challenging fight. One that gets her adrenaline pumping and making her try... or really well choreographed/animated fight scenes in movies.
(2/2🧵)

Believe it or not, Tycho loves to serve others. He finds peace in making someone else comfortable. He often spoils Drilltooth(and Stolas) off the clock.

Murabaa finds his happiest moments during dust bathes or while chatting up people he deems higher ranked than him.

How about a self promo day? If you're an indie author, share your latest release and tell everybody about it :) #WritingPrompt

I had to create some kind of umbrella term, I just don't remember how I can up with that one.

#WIPSnips #WriteSky #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompts

Amygdala by Sam Fennah for its absurd weirdness and yet interesting story.

And

Legends & Lattes by Trevor Baldree for its cozy slice of life tale. I'm hoping to grab the other two books in the series before the end of the year.

Basically, yeah, being relevant or sometimes even just mentioned in passing. Even if they may or may not get a line. Kind of like an Easter egg for my future self to find or for people who know the stuff below the tip of the iceberg.

Context, Development, and Relation. There are so many characters in the series who are Side Characters with names, they're consistent and either are familiar/relevant to the main three.
So they needed names like;

Cloves, Kome, Okashi, Big Jeane, and plenty more.

Why is the antagonist of your MC their antagonist? What caused the friction? #WritingPrompt

Every use of "Belong" is surprisingly in old or supremely spoiler context. But I found one.

People have a weird fascination with why some people are attracted to others. I can understand why, but sometimes I don't.
#WIPSnips #WriteSky #WritingCommunitt #WritingPrompts

Very much so. But it makes for interesting dialog.
I love writing scenes with him because I can play around this nihilistic mindset that's stuck in the age of ragnarok and has to be given information about the world outside from rabbits who are brave(or stupidly kind) enough to stay and chat.
