After a year hiatus the sitcom continues.
One's a serious and inexperienced gemere university student
the other's a dadal made of fire who delivers dangerous packages across the ocean
wouldn't it be great if doing these first next previous things wasn't super insanely obnoxious

don't worry the setting is super obtuse and information about it is scattered willy nilly
it's these two characters: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/22246442/ (although Situs is way bigger in that than she actually is i messed up there she is a small thing)
who are roommates in this city: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/27601407/
gaeger is a gemere, who can naturally feel other people's souls https://puu.sh/ABH6s/24905a6ca3.jpg
situs is a dadal, who are little scamps, but she's made of fire because she fell in the Ocean https://puu.sh/ABH71/a36d7f5afb.jpg
the Ocean is a giant rainbow mass of soul everything floats on that you use for electricity and light http://www.furaffinity.net/view/22799868/
that's about the important bits!

I have no idea what I'm reading. Someone is fire?
Wow, I finished the whole thing, I wish I knew what was going on because it seems really well written.
I feel like this was wroth it alone (i'm cliche I can't help it)
>"I'm not killing someone to find out what it feels like," Gaeger said.
>
>"Imagine you're having sex with someone you hate and you're winning. That's killing." That was really the best way to explain it, Situs thought.
Good stuff.

oops. Auroral Oceans is my most alien and over-detailed setting. There's like a 200+ page setting document that's deeply out of date and I hesitate updating it because last time I tried it took over 10 pages to compile all the notes for a single country. It's. I maybe went too far.
BUT.
I think the point of world building is not to build a super detailed world and then show it off obnoxiously. I once saw a furry book that someone was trying to publish and on the. First. PAGE it had a huge footnote about some history thing in the setting and it was huge, and it was like, no, you're making your world and its presence a character rather than a place for stories to happen in
my goal with these things is if you don't really get the setting for most of it to be understandable through context
in the first one she explains she's made of fire because she fell into the ocean. there's no huge in-story explanation for why that's a thing that happens because everyone in the setting already knows, but treating it like a fact among everyone else also allows the viewer to treat it as a fact even if they don't know what is going on, i think
but basically it's a world where the sky is a terrifying black Void, the Ocean is an infinite rainbow of energy, everyone lives on islands, and like 1/4 people have something weird about them

Nice!
Well that is why I enjoyed the story regardless if I felt a little lost, the writing and the characters work out so, like you said, you can infer a lot from that.
I like that a world has internal consistency, and an author that has a huge 'fact book' to keep it consistent is a good thing. An author who makes the 'fact book' the focus on the story, not so much IMHO.
In reality most people have no idea how an airliner works, jet engines, control surfaces, lifting bodies, no idea at all. But they can still buy a ticket and visit another place with one.

yeah
if the world is a character you're doing something wrong, unless it's like, a specific story about navigating and figuring out an unfamiliar world like the reader and the character has to figure it out together like
but otherwise yes
like Zonorhi isn't a name made up out of nowhere but all the reader really needs to get from it is that Situs is very easily sidetracked by irrelevant things
no one needs to know it was the original A'Abrin capital in the new world or anything
all that matters is Situs can't stay focused on one thing for longer than a sentence, especially if she doesn't wanna deal with it
