Insert someone into someone’s life. Online date works. Then swap that person out routinely with a different paid actor that looks similar to them and acts similarly. How quickly or slowly can you transform someone’s mental image of someone with gaslighting? How subtle do you really need to be?

(Slap) Get back to XNPC. But yeah I fully understand wanting to tell a new story. I’ve fully developed, storyboarded, and outlined like 4 stories I will probably never write in the last year because I have an ongoing weekly serial that eats up 80% of my writing time and I don’t want to leave...

Monica definitely qualifies. As do… basically all of the characters in that game when under her influence.

Yeah that’s the basic idea. The Yan is a shortened version of a Japanese term for “to be mentally ill” and dere is a shortened version of “lovey dovey”. So in love + insane, and generally that means specifically dangerous insanity. It’s easy to romanticize but if you take the concept remotely...

I have one. Nendra is probably the most miserable person in my story. She’s part demon and has a lot of psychological problems partially as a result, most importantly including sadistic intrusive thoughts and anger issues. She’s actually the wife of the guy the MC got isekaied into, who was also...

If you make an attempt to cause people to have a certain thought, feeling, or experience then that’s art. If you successfully give people a certain thought, feeling, or experience then that’s good art. If you successfully give people a certain thought feeling or experience that can be repeated...

I actually use date and timestamps in my story as glorified scene transitions, which really helps. Its probably not that important beyond knowing when a night happens because that’s when my MCs powers reset, but it’s there.

Yeah sorta. The way it’ll actually work is that the economy will shift around as whatever roles exist that humans are required for will become more important and people who can’t do those things will be increasingly marginalized. Exactly what it is that humans can reliably do better than 2040 ai...

Ai is good as Neo google. Ai is good as a quick and dirty translation. Ai is alright as a beta reader in a box as long as you have it TELL YOU what to fix instead of letting it fix things for you. Thats how I use it most often, and I frequently disagree but just as often it points out something...

Possibly the tuning fork for active sound cancellation as the quick and dirty option OR is highly targeted to counter certain verses (or at least all verses that integrate the one narrow frequency it counters), but something like a crank operated music box for more complex “countersong” like the...

Presumably the eldritch abomination cheerleaders are a legitimate threat and at least the SEAL and the cowboy are reacting to them as such in a remotely competent manner. That would put you into something ridiculous taken seriously territory, assuming that all of the people you listed are...

In my experience there are two types of humor that work best when writing something that exists for any p other than just being a joke. Something serious taken flippantly. Something ridiculous taken seriously. Is MC making dickish comments to the armed gunmen trying to kill him, perhaps as a...

I’m gonna need some world building. What is the mechanic by which victory in this twerk off defeats the dark lord meaningfully? Is there a legion of oppressed orcish club goers that will abandon his cause in favor of my own upon seeing my heroic donk work? Are the gods watching and super into...

I felt proud that I finished it. I never want to be the kind of writer who has a dozen half finished stories so I kept going till it was done.
