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!
