Get ready for November
NaNoWriMo approaches, and I have just one question for you: What if The Noid was SEXY!?
Hear me out first, I swear I'm not nuts!
As those of you who've browsed my content on TikTok have probably already seen, I've been a bit preoccupied with The Noid for the past few months. And, as my gremlin brain often does, I ended up asking myself the question: "What if there was a sexy version of this?" I presume this train of thought is how a lot of women's Halloween costumes come around, but I'm not thinking scarlet bunny girls, I'm thinking macho kemonomimi men.
I tried to brush off the idea the moment it came into my head but unfortunately my thoughts drifted back to a conversation I'd had with another creative. She'd bemoaned that in smutty stories with fantastical height gaps, the larger character is always the more dominant one. She then gave me a couple of loose scenarios where only a smaller character would fit the dom role, and I had to admit, it was a tantalizing--and seldom seen!--trope to play with.
And so I set myself to the challenge of making a Noid-ish character who's also smoking hot. It's proved to be very difficult, but I think I'm onto something.
I don't want to give away many details yet for this particular project, because most of it is still up in the air and I'm not even sure I won't get bored and leave it unfinished, but his name is Screwy, he's a six-inch-tall beefcake who never wears a shirt, and he HATES pizza. Oh, and he's killed at least ten humans. I feel this last factoid needs a disclaimer that I'm not riffing on the Kenneth Lamar Noid hostage tragedy. Screwy is a gremlin, so, for better or worse, he's brought down some fighter planes.
Fun fact: the original Noid concept art depicts him as a
more traditional gremlin with a bomber pilot outfit and tiny weapons!
Speaking of NaNoWriMo, I'd like to get back to the superhero book I started last year sooner rather than later. Meanny and the Dust Bunnies feature pretty heavily on the Goodies section of my site with no book to pair them with and I think that's a shame! Maybe I'll bang out some paragraphs today to get myself back into the writing habit.
And hopefully I'll be able to keep up a blogging habit for the rest of this month, too!
