Upload Notes: Weathered Affection Parts II & III
🕑 Added 2020-09-21 06:05:14 +0000 UTCHowdy everyone~ Up front, I decided to upload this last "half" of Weathered Affection into two parts! For my patrons, I've made both parts available right away. Dig in and enjoy! For non-patrons, you'll have to wait just a little bit longer for part III, but part II will be available in just a few days~ I decided to break it up this way due to the length of each segment, and because there was a pretty nice break point when the car chase ends.
With part III done, Weathered Affection is complete! I had a lot of fun writing this story, like I had said last week in the previous upload notes. There weren't any more opportunities to get that Cloverfield-like vibe, the narrative was past the point of using that as a mechanic, but I still think I got a gritty sense of suspense with what I had going~ Sort of feels right that after watching the monster on screen, it's then upon you, chasing you~ Really fun dynamic, and I still want to revisit that concept again! I think it could make for very fun shorts, especially if I used pre-established characters or people's OCs or something...
We also dip into the past and see how Lorita and Cassidy first met~ I think this was very cute, hehe. Originally, I had written things so the flashback was more of a thing in mention, with no direct description of their high school history. But both the patron and I thought it'd made the interactions that much juicier if we saw their relationship play out with more specifics. It also makes for a nice break, I think! After watching all this destruction happen, it all occurs to Lorita that she's the one being hunted for by the monster on screen, all because of some long-gone drama. The flashback, admittedly, isn't the highlight of Weathered Affection haha but I do think it added, not took away~ I think it makes both characters sympathetic -- Cassidy's hung up from having been manipulated, but the reader is surely aware that Lorita doesn't deserve this.
Had a bit of an exhibition thing towards the end, too! I feel like I could have played this part up just a little better, but it came towards the end and I already felt like things were progressing slightly too slow. So I tried summarizing the ideas I wanted to otherwise get to, like news helicopters watching Cassidy masturbate, or Lorita's neighbors seeing her be used like a toy. The intro to Weathered was pretty good, I felt, at establishing a "general human" perspective, so I think that helps allow me get away with only so little mention of the exhibitionist qualities.
It was very cool working this all out! Really enjoyed the experience, so special thanks goes to the patron that requested this story~ And thank you to all my patrons! You're all too great~ Hope you enjoyed this story, and look forward to the next one!

Really enjoyed this one; scary, exciting, erotic...and the simple addition of the flashback filling in the origins of the characters' relationship fleshed things out nicely. I imagine Cassidy and Lori will have some fun adventures in the future. Well, fun for one of them, anyway. Thanks to you and your requestor for another great tale!
