Are Petey & Tommy gay? It says they're going to ask Emmie to the prom.
They're just kits; it's just junior high; they're only having fun. And at 12, taking one girl between them to the dance is just a huge giggle anyway. But Emerald is a yaoi girl who likes boys who like boys, so she may suspect something. My guess is that, like Francis said sniffing them, maybe someday they will be. But there's definitely love, and I trust Francis a lot, so maybe the cat is right.
But the love is more important than the myth of orientation. I think if there's love there, that might turn the tables while Tommy and Petey are so young. Maybe 'the tables' aren't a real thing in the first place. Or maybe, saying "I'm not that way" when someone offers love is just dishonest and violent. If someone says, "I love you," you are that way, no matter what your 'orientation' says. Francis did say "I'm not that way" once, used it as a weapon, and he seems to take pause when he thinks of it.
Is Petey straight? We all know Tommy's gay.
I wouldn't do that: I'm not J. K. Rowling...
Are Petey & Tommy in love?
That one's worth answering. They're learning about love. I beg the question of what love really means, and whether "in love" is a real thing at all.
Will the boyfurs of 'The Milkshake Club' allow Emerald and Cassie and the other girls to play, too?
Crazier things have been known to happen. But why should the boys have the last say?
Are Emmie and Cassie going to get drunk and go down on eachother of a weekend sleepover?
I wouldn't do that: I'm not J. K. Rowling... but Shadow Cat might.
My version of the story starts with a Zima douche...
Awesome fic, dude! I wanna draw fanart!
By all means! Send me a link when it's done and I'll post it in the official TMC gallery, too. Writers are also invited.
Are there any more Milkshake Club stories? I've only seen...
They are (approximately chronological order):
How do you write so well?
Most of my ideas for writing come from someplace else. I hold still and get quiet, and let whatever it is that wants to tell the story come out. If I force it, or try to take over and control what's happening in the story, the results are really bad, and once ended me up in the emergency room. It takes me and uses me and sometimes throws me away after. And sometimes, even then, I come back and beg for more! And sometimes I'm too afraid to, of what I might see. Writing's like diving for oysters: only some prizes are pearls, but the sharks are always real.
I "got my voice" reading Heinlein. Find how you, the storyteller, speak best. Read your stuff out loud - and learn to listen to it. Does it comfort and intoxicate and entrain your ears? Do you like hearing it, the way it sounds? If you don't like the sound of the stuff you write, no one else ever will. When you stop feeling self-conscious and others start paying attention, you're on the right track.
But besides finding your own voice, you have to find your heart, too.
Gee, whiz, Beaver: how many languages do you know?
Fewer than a half-dozen, and smecks of some more. I tend to think in Latin, mostly. And I'm a ferret, not a beaver.
OMG this story shocked me! I'm offended! Disgusted!! Entitled!!!
Send me your reciept, and I'll refund 100% of everything you paid me. ;)
Impossible! I've never heard of such a thing as a "milkshake club"!
There was one at my junior high, in fact: 2nd floor, rear, boys' bathroom.
Why do you always use such big, hard words?
I never pick a word that's longer than the word I need to use. To lexiconographically flagellate my readership with a tautologically redundant plethora of excess surplussage would be superfluous, and almost insulting.
The Milkshake Club was too "light and fluffy"! Will Petey & Tommy ever yiff?
At their ages, I suppose they'd need to be tutored. Or shown inappropriate porn. You could email me some to pass on...
Can you make Petey and Tommy do {expurgated shocking sexual act}?
I can't make them do anything. Petey and Tommy are real - I'm a soulbonder: Google it. The young furs in these stories come to me of their own volition, sometimes do silly and exasperating things in my bed at night which make it hard to sleep. But I'd never throw one out, nor stop him from eating cookies. Sometimes Petey and Tommy sit in the chair here with me, one on each arm with their footpaws on the seat, their muzzles sometimes on my head or neck. But they kiss and lick eachother, not me.
On the other paw, you could always send a picture of yourself in said specified obscenity, and I'll ask them about it.
What's "emofur"?
An episode I'd like to furget... Also known as "Yiff-What-Yiff?".
What's "pulp furiction"?
It's a retro-anthro imitation of the sort of low-brow gritty novel about fundamental darkness inside the characters, popular in the 1950's. Not Goth, though, where darkness is inside the reader too. Other terms which might apply: gratuitous, racist, raunchy, sexist, sleazy stereotypical, violent. Stipulated. But it's fun! See my "Money Back Guarantee" above for details.
OtterCub ganked yer stuff! He wrote "Firefly Club"! Plagiarism!
OtterCub's one of the best furry writers I know. He started his story first, never has to borrow from anyfur.
What happened to Winterimage? I don't see him online - or his stories - anymore.
I don't know. And wish I did. I miss him.
