So, first I want to say, the writing is really good. It is, dare I say, enthralling :p
I didn't expect something so dark and kinda just fucked up. Usually with these kinks that involve fictional characters suffering in some way a loss of autonomy, a violation of consent, the implications don't matter and the moral weight just isn't there. The horror innate to these things is hand-waved away, because their depictions are so unreal and cartoony that these things might as well just be Tom & Jerry, where getting hit in the head with an anvil just makes your head look funny for a second or two.
That, or they're just easy to ignore.

That is not so much the case here. It's like, oh that's hot- and then it instantly turns into anger and sadness and interest in the story.

I am very curious though, how are you able to write an antagonist like this while having it be your own persona? I feel that I'd have a very hard time doing such a thing. To be honest, I found it a little scary and off-putting. I don't mean to sound as if I'm casting some self-righteous judgement. I'm well aware that it wouldn't make sense for me to do so, I don't know if "hypocritical" would be the right word but it would certainly be very silly of me! I'm just wondering, how do you do it? Is this the "evil" version of your fursona? Or am I thinking about it too hard?

Oh, and the little slices of the world that were given seem really interesting too. I almost want it to be see it as a setting for a TTRPG, maybe like Vampire: The Masquerade or something of that nature?

Thank you very much! I really enjoyed exploring the darker sides of a kink that already leans a bit towards dark, and I think that shows in the writing. The misery and total helplessness is either part of the fun, or it's effective horror - it depends on the reader!

The Jarby you meet in this game is the "baseline" for Jarby - he's not an evil twin or anything, he's just evil. I definitely get how that can be off-putting, and I'm actually not sure why having a fursona like him appeals to me so much, but it does. Without getting too deep, maybe he's an escape from having so much empathy for others? Or feeling like I don't have control? Hard to say!

I'm really glad you brought up VTM! I absolutely adore that setting, and it's a big reason why Jarby is a vampire bat. He'd be a Tzimisce for sure.

Anyways, thanks again for playing, and for taking the time to share your thoughts!
