Some Easter Eggs and A Poll. (Patreon)

Good Evening everyone! 

I just received some feedback concerning “Love the Sinner”, and it looks like the requested changes won’t require any massive overhauls, so I am crossing my fingers that I can release it to the public before long.

In addition, I got a good head start on “Carrots and Sticks” this past weekend, so that story is well underway as well! 

Tonight, I want to talk a little bit about some story connections and random trivia from my stories. 

I don’t have any illusions that my work is high art or something that people would comb through for clues, but it does amuse me to plant some easter eggs in my work sometimes. Some of these I consider fairly obvious, but I don’t think I’ve ever had them pointed out to me. Maybe people just thought they were too obvious to mention. 

The Panther Club: The club that Vixen used to work at in “The Cool Mom” and the club where Victor tricks Gina into dancing nude are the same place. It’s mentioned in passing in “The Cool Mom” that the club is owned by a “rich black businessman”. Namely, Victor Cross!

The Secret Program: In “Kitty in the Middle”, Kitty finds a mind-altering sound file editor on a forum named F4R1A. As you might have guessed, this program was based on research into the hypnotic speech patterns of Faria herself, making this a shared setting. The reason that the program has so many limitations is that it is unable to make the fine adjustments in pitch that Faria uses in her hypnosis. 

Tyler’s Cameo: This one may have been a little too subtle. In “Art Exhibitionism”, the first guest to cross the line during Zoe’s second exhibit is named Tyler. A cocky young man who has an appreciation for the “art of the female body”? Who does that sound like? This was intended to be a cameo for Tyler, the male main character from “Miss Udders”. He had his memory wiped in that story, but apparently that didn’t stop him from being a dominant little shit.

Faria’s Name: I established this very early on, though only in passing, but Faria isn’t her real name. It’s a pseudonym. Abbe Faria is a real-life historical figure who was one of the pioneers in the early study of hypnotism. I thought Faria sounded suitably mysterious and feminine, and Faria herself must have agreed in-universe! 

My Pen Name: Rabblelaid is a pretty stupid pun on the name Rabelais, a medieval French author who wrote earthy, crass novels about giants (any English major could tell you I’m massively oversimplifying. Sorry!). Rabelaisian is an adjective that can mean “crude”, “vulgar” or “lewd”. 

I also have a new poll today for my next Patreon-exclusive short story! 

I have done polls on new tags that I have never done before, but I thought today I would I would switch things up. I took some of the tags i have covered most frequently. Choose one, and I will write a brand new story looking at that genre from a new perspective. 

Which of the following would you most like me to write a story about?
