No I’m a dragon, actually
WAIT PEOPLE ON TUMBLR ARE REAL FUCKING PEOPLE
I accidentally foreshadowed events that I didn't even dream up yet
Rereading my own stuff because I accidentally made a mistake in Off to Class. It's a fic dedicated to worldbuilding, character growth and foreshadowing. And holy crap rereading it made me realise just how much foreshadowing there is.
(SPOILERS FOR SMALLER BODIES)
Specifically during Miss Delight's lesson.
"Last lesson, we learned skin is the largest organ..."
Chemical Weapon introduces Ollie, who is infamous for being skinned.
"Without oxygen in your blood... eventually, death."
Catnap uses her smoke to leach the oxygen out of Leith Pierre's lungs and suffocate him.
"Today, we learn the basics of the neck."
The very next fic covers Dogday's throat surgery and breathing collar. Miss Delight shifts the lesson to warn him. This was the ONLY intended bit of foreshadowing in the whole fic...
All of this foreshadows the nightmare that is this thing
How... the heck??
But hey, it works!
Guys guys guys guys in the new Chapter 4 Trailer the Mini Dogday’s tail wags when he eats and it’s so precious because he’s excited to eat and I want to hug him and gently squeeze him and feed him copious amounts of beans
Someone needs to make a gif of his tail wagging immediately right now

Now I can hyperfixate slightly more calmly with the knowledge that yes now when people ask who my Ollie is I can drop them this link and force them to read 5k words

After Catnap was taken away, the Critters were never the same…
Claustrophobic and terrified of the dark
Always stays with at least one person; can’t handle being alone
Dating CraftyCorn
Frequently bursts into tears when reminded of traumatic events
Deeply broken after Catnap’s disappearance
Believes that she has been murdered
Doesn’t smile, doesn’t even bother
Will defend the Critters with his life but will not defend himself
Blind (one eye gouged out, the other not functioning)
Wears sunglasses 24/7 to hide his eyes
Not self-confident; fragile and traumatised
Jealous and nervous around able-bodied people
Paranoid and claustrophobic
Swears that she saw Catnap dragging a body
Sticks to Kickin constantly and helps him walk
Wants to bodybuild and learn self-defence
Still very anxious
Dating Bobby, sticks to her like glue
Defends Catnap’s memory but will break down in tears
Sticks to only painting happy things, avoids the memories of the fire
Constantly anxious
Paranoid that people are expecting him to do things he can’t do
Finds it difficult to concentrate and calm down
Often found alone frantically cramming knowledge in case he “needs” it
The only one who seems mostly unscathed
Nervous around using fire in the kitchen
Brings up her admiration for Catnap in casual conversation
Sometimes forgets that the incident even happened
And finally…
Completely separated from the other Smiling Critters
No longer considers herself as part of them
Aches when thinking of Dogday and therefore tries to distract herself
Anxiety is gone
Well, my friend.
