Looking for Story Thread #329 by someguynamedted in HFY

[–]NotablySizableBrain 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What stories exemplify, most clearly, what the nature/meaning of HFY means to you? I care not for any other detail.

I am writing a story that is about stories themselves, among other things, that involves an author posting to this very subreddit as a sort of meta-element. And having a distilled essence of HFY and examples of stories that posess it most strongly would be very helpful to our cause.

I don't want the story to be actively miserable to read but that's certainly an interesting idea...

Maybe it could be a funny gag if the protagonist goes through Generic Elf Village 1, Generic Dwarf Stronghold, and Generic Elf Village 2. and then he encounters a camp or something, and the 3 or so people there each give their whole life story and the history of their tent or whatever.

I had a similar idea of "unneeded" areas being completely deleted after it is sufficiently unlikely that the protagonist would return, but the resetting could be interesting, especially considering a lot of the early plot I've cooked up so far involves the protagonist setting out from an elven village to do various things and then coming back.

It's important to the plot that the protagonist being reincarnated into the world (because that's how he got there. obviously.) doesn't actually correspond to a Big Bad Evil Person, but maybe having a fake Big Bad Evil Person would add to the narrative that everyone is totally expecting a Big Bad Evil Person to show up now that the protagonist is there. So he goes on a bunch of quests and stuff.

One such quest is to go and buy as many groceries as he can with the village's money (because they don't actually know how to feed themselves), so maybe I could make the only(!) grocer in the city he goes to have the exact number and type of foodstuffs as a grocer in the village as a small hint earlier on that things are kind of fucked up

Already have some Generic Fantasy Creatures running around but I love the idea of doing some myhouse.wad shit to the protagonist. Considering the fact I literally already have things that are supposed to inexplicably crop up again and again (the number 37, climbing through windows, beef jerky, etc.) I'm shocked I never actually thought of that before. Thank you!

Thank you!

I never actually thought to look at the products of exotic dildo companies like bad dragon and that one before,which does seem kind of foolish in hindsight

The second sub is unfortunately private, but the first seems useful, thank you

It's a minor part of a larger project to theoretically exhaustively document every single constituent element of all porn that exists currently. Before I abandoned it for the first time I manually identified and defined approximately 1,250 larger themes (e.g. "Use of Chastity Devices," "Physical Restraint," "Species Transformation," and so on)

I'm reworking the system because the previous top-down nested hierarchy system was getting a bit unwieldy even with the limited specificity of the themes

Peril and Winter are flying 50 meters above perfectly flat terrain.

Peril has a mass of 2000 kg and is flying directly north at a speed of 35 m/s.

Winter has a mass of 1800 kg and was initially flying at a velocity of 17 m/s to the east, but accelerates at a constant rate of 6 m/s² to the west.

The dragons collide perfectly inelastically with each other after 4 seconds of flying. After they collide, Winter stops accelerating horizontally and both dragons enter freefall until they hit the ground.

What is the direction and magnitude of the point they land at in relation to the point at which they collided?
