So much hype for Leila T_T. ETA on when she’ll be finished?
Same as Roo tbh. They've both been sitting at that "need repeatables" part forever. Given their crew status, there's been a lot of other things that need consideration. And that's all before factoring in other commitments and responsibilities that take up time.
Think I need to ban myself from giving out dates the rest of this year lol. Two years at this has taught me that I can never actually go fast enough to meet them, at least where current/past me is concerned. The absolute best a word count can be in a day is 5000. Anymore is great, but it's an uphill battle. Crew/Companion and persistent NPCs need to support wide swathes and many flavors of the game's player-base.
My record in workflow, most recently (end of May really), was the Cat Harem pregnancy for CoC2. That was about 40k in 7 days, breaking the one set by the first Bored Jumper scenes I wrote at 15k in 3 days. Variation wise, the big thing about that content was that there is a Rut and non-Rut variant to every single configuration, and I limited other variations to knot checks and pregnancy checks. The most recent scene I wrote in TITS that came out as 'efficiently' as the cat preg did was the Fem Sydian lovemaking scene. I kept that one extremely bare variation-wise due to its niche appearance -- you have to use blunt weapons and break her armor then do this specific sequence of events etc, but it's still an all-day thing.
With Roo the idea has always been to formulate a free-form sort-of sex approach for the main brunt of scenes between standard "click this, get this" and other conditionals, some of which have been written already. Position her, getting strip teased along the way (if she's not nude), lots of groping and sensuality, then doing her or getting a BJ in whatever scenario you've created.
With Leila there's so much I want to do and it needs to be written with respect to her crew-ability. I could always shunt some things off to being crew-exclusive, but there's still got to be at least six or so scenes to start her off with to satisfy any player's preferred role at the time -- and don't forget about conditionals, some of which I'm eager to start ASAP. Like teasing her in various non-sex options and getting swept into a sex scene. I'm very happy with how her sub/dom scalar is turning out though, and how, based on her sheer volume of sexytimes, you'll probably vacillate between being the bottom and the top and enjoy having it be remarked on by her. She 'learns' about the PC's aphro saliva, snakebyte throat, and cum sluttery as well.
All I can keep asking for is more time on the personal backlog.
Then we can start looking forward to a proper Year of the Rat. New scamp content is woefully behind all this.
