I've seen stories with GL poly relationship that don't add a harem tag because they don't want to be associated with the negative tropes of the harem genre, even though it's the closest widely accepted tag for stories like that. Futa can be hit or miss. depending on how it's used. I count them...

Ah yes, when you don't specify what kind of average you mean.

Elder Scrolls casually said yes and merged all iterations of cat-people into one species.

This one is especially funny for me. I'm a big Warhammer fan, and when Games Workshop decided to retire the classic Warhammer Fantasy setting and released Age of Sigmar, so many people complained that it's too High Fantasy. Don't get me wrong, the newer setting is balls to the wall bonkers and...

Higurashi is one of the best horror stories I can think of. It actually takes its time to establish the non-horror live of the characters and slowly brings in the horror elements and works so well for it. In contrast, some movies can't seem to wait to bring in the horror, but it's all...

If you decide to go for it and want some references, I can recommend The End and the Death, specifically the 2nd person sections that follow Horus, the main bad guy (more trying to overthrow his father as the ruler of humanity and less kidnapping though). It's the finale of the 40k prequel...

2nd person is trippy as heck, I say go for it if you think you can pull it off.

And once more everyone ignores the glory of the second person perspective.

Yes, more than one Botfly would be kind of really bad.

I think my main issue is with using the term antagonist. Maybe it's just me, but it implies some form of agency, goals and decision making that puts them in conflict with the protagonist. People of course, animals, heck even an AI, as bound by its programming as it might be, all can have that...

Romantic doing a lot of work here. I think for me it's Anubis, Horus or Wyrm by Wolfgang Hohlbein. I would love to list Lovecraft here, but I think I might be too science brained to be scared by air conditioning, UV light and intermediate level geometry.

Maybe having other characters say or do some things that are just a bit off could work? someone has rehearsed his lines a bit to much and just keeps answering way faster than they should since they don't actually have to think about the questions someone that, for some reason, has to play two...

Did some quick searches and apparently there are multiple endings per case, but only one of them is correct. And something about ink color being green when you got the correct ending and red when you accused someone innocent (apparently with the back/return button on the controller).

Did you mean to say that it might make them a completely new, atrificial, species entirely, but not Dire Wolves? Or that it doesn't make Dire Wolves deextinct because they are not Dire Wolves? Or mayb even both?

Geneseed is used to create Space Marines, some of them use cybernetics and prosthetics. For most, it's to replace parts that are too damaged, so it's less another upgrade. Iron Hands can sometimes do it for ritualistic purposes, if I rmember correctly. Obliterators on the Chaos side meld the...

Depends on how you define a villain. You usually don't need someone behind a natural disaster, if that's what you mean. A selfish prick that's out to save himself (and most importantly all his stuff) even at the cost of others, like the protagonist? A greedy f-er that wants to make a profit by...

I'd vehemently disagree that 'it makes for a better story' is a legit excuse for having glaring contradictions in your story, and that's independent of the medium. I'll be with everyone else defending a story when people overreact and call it a plothole when something that can be reasonably...

There are some stories where I'm extremely concerned that something bad happened to the author, when the comments indicate they had every plan to continue but then suddenly stop and no longer log in.

In the context of SH, adapted from could also be used to denote that something is a final version that's based on a rough draft that's also still on the site as a separate story.

Yeah, that's been like this for as long as I can remember, definitely not something specific to your story, as far as I can tell.
