Paging @pengarr.postes.club

pengarr.postes.club•15 days ago

oh WOW

Yeah, I could probably do something like that

My portfolio for narrative is a little light compared to a lot of the other mech lesbians out there but where do I go to apply tbh?

unormal.bsky.social•15 days ago

im still in the musing stage atm!

osakanone.bsky.social•15 days ago

huh?

Brian.

Brian you're like the "let's go lesbians let's go" guy and I'm not even kidding.

zkat.tech•15 days ago

hell, @benjanun.bsky.social look at this. (just so you can be amused I'm not trying to dump anything on you)

yurimobilefort.bsky.social•15 days ago

hi i've been doing mecha/henshin hero lesbians for like literally a greater slice of my life than i haven't at this point. happy two decades of melancholy mecha lesbians

Ahem… @theoracraft.bsky.social

*Leaps out of a Tesla II Battletech cockpit* You called? Give me the low down.

unabridgedgamer.bsky.social•15 days ago

I'm serious, you want her. I can vouch for her writing capabilities. You'd be netting an absolute goldmine.

(Just heaven have mercy on you if you try to GM a TTRPG with her, she will break every scenario in the cleverest way possible!)

theoracraft.bsky.social•15 days ago

WHAT DO YOU MEAN I can't burst the hydraulics of the opposing mech's legs? Do you know how hot 8 medium lasers run? Susceptible 👋 to 👋 temperature 👋 extremes! At least gimme some leakage! Ew, not like that. For now. Like that *later*😉.

I think you've figured out a good start to your religion

nullconvention.bsky.social•15 days ago

yes but here me out...

jessfrom.online•15 days ago

hi, im sure you are flooded with replies at this point but im a published lesbian scifi author & experienced game designer in multiple mediums & love mechs & love your work & would LOVE to do this!

+ while im here, i feel like i NEED to say how perfect @yuriposting.bsky.social would be at this too.

jessfrom.online•15 days ago

(but yeah, if at any point down the line you're moving forward on this and would want to see a portfolio, specific original writing sample, or even just have a conversation about it, please reach out any time!)

unormal.bsky.social•15 days ago

100% will do, though i am of course legendarily slow :)

@coreyjwhite.com would love this. also *I* would love this.

thedescenters.bsky.social•15 days ago

tbh i've always enjoyed games as a narrative vehicle and I know for a fact my work goes hard in them. especially for naturalistic dialogue. i'm probably the best at that.

thedescenters.bsky.social•15 days ago

we've published together on strange horizons recently (http://strangehorizons.com/wordpress/fiction/crisis-actors/) but I think the one of ours that might be more your speed considering what I know of your posting is this one: https://www.patreon.com/posts/all-my-guns-are-119135802 Let us know! 💖

coreyjwhite.com•15 days ago

Yeah, I'm *sure* we could do some great work in a mech setting. Had mechs in my heart since MechWarrior 2.

whisk.bsky.social•15 days ago

loved this - thank you for sharing it!

thedescenters.bsky.social•15 days ago

Aw thank you, no worries! 💜

ars-synthetica.bsky.social•15 days ago

I know several writers who are writing lesbian mecha fiction right now. Some insanely good stuff.

Would strongly recommend reaching out to @malachiteos.bsky.social and @yuriposting.bsky.social if you're looking to hire writers.

unormal.bsky.social•15 days ago

still musing on the shape of the project, but making some lists!

ars-synthetica.bsky.social•15 days ago

Sounds good!

If a sample of their work would help for said lists or for inspiration, they both have publicly available writing at https://starset.dev/hekates-call-chapter-1/ and https://archiveofourown.org/works/48577036 respectively

ars-synthetica.bsky.social•15 days ago

I've also written my own work in this space https://hategrenade.itch.io/steel-jaws but I have a full time position already, so I can't promise you my undivided attention.

modernmodron.itch.io•15 days ago

Ohhhh color me interested in this! Can't wait to read it

catacalypto.bsky.social•15 days ago

this is like pouring blood in the shark tank.

unormal.bsky.social•15 days ago

I speak the language of my people.

gearhook.goblin.horse•15 days ago

No, this slitting the lamb’s throat in the tank. Fresh, warm, and far more potent.

unormal.bsky.social•15 days ago

this is the power we need

gearhook.goblin.horse•15 days ago

Haven’t I posted the short fic about the proxy toxic Yuri— experiencing depersonalization through war and combatting the desensitization of the horrors despite the dopamine being pumped through the women’s bodies when they send 300 tonnes of life-ending lead through yet another bulkhead?

unormal.bsky.social•15 days ago

if you link it i will repost it to make sure more people read it idk

gearhook.goblin.horse•15 days ago

I’ll dig it up— but it should have been indicative of what this does to people. Armored core 6 came out and was just… gender for like 3 weeks solid.
