oh here’s another conundrum for you: the opening scene of the next last kings story is Kes and his family slaughtering space chickens. and I wrote it sensitively and realistically, based on my extremely extensive personal experience with my hands inside still-warm carcasses for business reasons. I’m feeling pretty good about the scene, I think it’s both vivid and engaging, I’m looking forward to posting it and seeing what people think.
However. Rereading it, I can completely understand how it would definitely be Not Everybody’s Jam. So, in a rare moment of self-reflection, I resolved that I should post an alternate summary that just recounts the important character beats and plot points, and then have an anchor link so people can skip straight to the part after that’s done.
But if the anchor link doesn’t work, I’d also like an option that people could scroll real fast and stop when they see the …
I was going to put a line of bold asterisks, but that can be hard to spot in some fonts.
So I thought, I know! I should put in an illustration or something.
… I can sort of draw, but. I. I dunno.
Maybe I can manage to doodle something small that looks like a Space Chicken.
