Isabella: I feel like I have a sense of it, but can't think of a word for it. The process of becoming a WoD-vampire or Twilight-vampire would qualify; the state of being one probably wouldn't; anything involving Elcenia-vampires certainly wouldn't. Becoming the Six Million Dollar Man probably would.


I'll have to ask Nemo if "conservativism" fits the concept he has in his head: it sounds broadly correct, but I'm not certain it fits the details.

All of your examples are correct, though 'the process of becoming a vampire' is a bit of an edge case and might depend on the circumstances. Becoming the Six Million Dollar Man is definitely in the domain. The word I think you're looking for is surgery.

That fits Isabella, but not quite...? Would a butterfly metamorphosis count?
Sorry for my bad english

Conservativism doesn't sound evil enough for Rashek. The world contains conservatives, and they rarely do things like prohibit guns because what if the dissenters get them. The word I've been using is Suppression, but I'm not all that attached to that either.

No, absolutely not.

I should perhaps include "Isabella's Domain is fundamentally unnatural."

Well, mostly I want to figure out how people find these things in the first place. Going by author doesn't work because you can't find where various accounts have made comments that I can see, threads aren't usually linked between worlds, and not everyone has a personal glowfic compendium >.<

And I have no problem with Remilia Scarlet pictures, they do fit, I'm just being silly and also mildly amused there's another Touhou fan among the authors :P.

I really really want there to be an actual master index of glowfic sandboxes that don't include Alicorn, and I tried to make one once, and it did not work at all.

I would like for that thing to exist too!

(I have one or two sandboxes in progress with forum members that I kept meaning to publicize, but I never got around to asking my coauthors for permission. If you're still trying to do the thing I can totally get on that!)
