Runaway to the Stars: Rough Pages 10
Added 2021-06-09 19:00:05 +0000 UTCThe avians flying in the background are wearing weighted vests for exercise purposes. Dirtball is only about 0.75 Earth gravity, so you have to exercise diligently to keep up your muscle and bone density. Unless you're a human or a bug ferret, in which case you're probably full of artificial genes that mitigate the negative effects of microgravity.

A bunch of other Patrons have had similar experiences! It seems most of my blog followers didn't even know Talita has been the intended protagonist this whole time 🤣 I've only realized now that I'm writing just how little posting years of worldbuilding art does to actually shape audience expectation of the intended work. Inside the blog format, people tend to focus on specific tags and end up with wildly different incomplete pictures of the narrative. Which isn't a bad thing! I like that my tag system lets people target the particular works of mine that they're interested in. But it's definitely great motivation for uh, getting around to actually making the story I want to tell

2021-06-10 01:50:07 +0000 UTCDoes this mean that Talita has to wear weighted clothing too?
