/swc/ - shittywebcomics

I've spent a lot of my internet life exploring every seedy underbelly I can.

Usually my excuse is "so I can understand it" as I feel that should be the job of any true writer.

But mostly it's out of boredom and perversion.

I don't know why I went into the werewolf shit in that SWC porn thread when there's already this one.

I'll go more into the werewolf stuff here, and why my gay werewolf fag characters show up so often on SWC.

First, I have a bunch of stories and characters, but I have serious plans for them, and don't want them associated with SWC. I know most of our fans on tumblr never like or reblog a single post we make because they know it would be used against them, which I understand fully, because our blog is a heavy dose of trolling wrapped up with critical analysis, sometimes just critical trolling, and then a bunch of other random shit sometimes that doesn't even make sense. But yeah, because of that, the stuff I want to publish or the stuff associated with me outside of the blog, I don't mention on SWC, ever.

The werewolves I feel are safe. Plus they're kind of side characters that I can use in multiple different kinds of stories. The original werewolf story with Thomas and Laily involved them before I had a name for either character, it was just "male damsel in captive tower, modern era style, rescued by princess to go off and have adventures, they turn out to be werewolves," which I thought up around 2002, but never wrote anything for, it was just an idea. It came back to me in the past few years as something I could expand into a full fledged story, and that's when I started writing more seriously again, but still never posted anything involving them, they were like secret characters, and eventually I took them and used them for other things.

I like Thomas, I like the idea of him and his character, because it's one of the first times I realized that the character could write himself if I gave him enough of a personality. Essentially, he's a shrimp, like 5'2", who is twig thin and couldn't win a fight with a shower curtain, but then turns into a xyber huge bara as fuck werewolf. Then it's just a matter of putting him in situations where he either gets into huge gory violent fights, or where he has to deal with people or situations as a wolf or in his dinky little human form, and how he'd either react to each situation differently, or even how he'd react to them the same but be forced to handle them differently.

Tenk makes fun of Thomas because at 5'2" he's actually shorter than Tenk's own shrimpy character, Demya. When I think about Thomas, I always imagine how most other characters, either in my stories or other stories, would react to him knowing that he's a giant monster werewolf and then vaguely kawaii bishie human. I think this would lead to a lot of interesting situations, or at least one short lived interesting reveal. Especially with Thomas as a human having to react to people who know he's a wolf but being in a situation where he can't wolf out. As I figure, the thing he'd hate the most is people trying to take advantage of him being small and him having to deal with that.

These are just the werewolf ideas though, and I tend to keep this kind of material shelved. Except for Kill Everything.

There are several references to the idea of a "power fantasy," especially in superhero comics, which is what Thomas appears to be. Well, "sad pathetic self insert mary sue power fantasy furfaggotry" is probably what most people would say, but I'm sure that goes without saying.

The thing that I tend not to mention is that in reality I see Thomas the werewolf as more of a "weakness fantasy," in fact that's how the very first story years ago was meant to be to some extent, a young shut-in loser who can't go out into the outside world no matter how much he wants. He's rescued by Laily, who represents all of the outside world, and yet also something more insular, specifically the concept of sex and isolation but in the open world with no one around to judge or punish for two young lusting people fulfilling their desires, blah blah that kinda SHIT, but the point is that Thomas starts off incapable of having any strength on his own until a legitimately affectionate woman comes along for him.

This comes from my really sad nerdy young days where I was only just ending my belief in soulmates, but that's what this story was originally, a soulmate fantasy. I'm embarrassed of myself for believing that sappy retarded tripe back then, not just because it was sappy and retarded, but because it was a falsehood. Upon recent rewriting of the story, it became something vaguely different, but it's still essentially weak and lost Thomas desperately wanting to go outside, rescued by Laily, they go have werewolf adventures (actually as the story ended up turning out, the outside world is a nightmare of responsibility Thomas can't possibly manage that almost leads to his death and the extermination of his werewolf clan, due to being stuck in the middle of two warring werewolf clans that demand Thomas' new clan pick a side).

In other Thomas stories, they again end up being something like a "weakness fantasy," not so much because he is weak, but that he ends up in situations where he must become weak by going human, and how he resents being a shrimpy human dude and so on, because who wouldn't prefer to be a huge bara that stomps around ripping people to shreds and then ruining every bitch's uterus? I dunno that sounds fun to me anyway, but character-wise in most Thomas stories he would see it as life itself and not see much point in being a human, at least at the beginning. Then maybe he becomes comfortable with his human side and blah blah, rescues the royal such and such forcing humans to respect the etc, but only after he wolfs out and rips through hundreds of bad guys with fuckin blood and guts spraying everywhere Berserk style.

So that's what my werewolf faggotry is about, it's really just a desire for stories that have a bunch of action and violence just for fun, no greater themes or faux epic story, just a giant monster protagonist that rips people apart, but at the same time he's a shrimpy kawaii bishie who hates how xyberkawaii he is forced to be in human form. In a way it's just a goof for me, but it is fun to write or at least daydream about. Dat dat's wut I tink.

I thought this was really funny by the way.
