Mother's Mayhem pages 1-4

@galvatronus Amazing work I love it

@Marry What rest of your thoughts on it and theories about the mother, her son, and the dice?
-
@galvatronus Well, you really want to know? You probably won’t like my “theory” because I don’t dig on incest so the story ends up being she isn’t his mom, but a fae that he’s ensnared using a charmed Dungeons and Dragons set. He’s able to pull creatures from the other world, but even in our world they are subject to the dice and other artifacts of the game. He just has her posing as his mother so as not to bring suspicion. I’m quite sure the author isn’t going for that though.
I don’t know about anyone else, but I’ll admit that I do a lot of editing in my head canon to kink stuff I read to filter out stuff that isn’t my thing. I do it because I often enjoy something for completely different reasons than the writer intended.
I don’t mean any harm by it, I suppose I’ve always assumed other people did that as well. But I get why it would upset creators that readers are filtering out the thing a writer is insisting is the point. (“Mother’s Mayhem” right?) I do that with a lot of the violence stuff especially. I mentally insert “they are just role playing, she’s just acting scared because it is fun to be scared when you know you’re actually safe. The next panel is them giggling about it while they cuddle.”

I can’t be the only one who noticed she rolled an 8, not a 17.

When you roll two ten sided dice for a check like that one counts as the tens (IE: 10-20-30-so on.) while the second is the 0 through 9. So she might have rolled a 17, or a 71 since she didn’t establish which di counted as what.

@HHunter1 Who didn’t establish which counted as what?
-
@galvatronus
Sorry, the woman didn’t note which di would be for the ten’s spot and which was for the ones.HH1
-
@HHunter1 which of her roles was it during, 1st or 2nd?
-
@HHunter1 You’re describing a D% system, in which case her roll is either 17 or 71 (you’re basically rolling a 100 sided die at that point). Nothing on the chart is above 20 so I doubt it’s that. We’re probably looking at a pool of D10s like Exalted
What you’re describing is fairly popular in Japanese systems and called 2d. But that assumes D6s instead of D10s.
I worked in a game store for years
