But you guys know what Sette is referencing, right? If she lost her teeth, then this other lion girl must have lost hers too. She remembers how awful and frigged up that day was.

Trauma team treatment strikes again!

Ahaha, did you call the teeth? You're such a close reader!
Ashley
Make! All! Shonen! into! Silent Hill!

Woah so I've also had this same nightmare. All my teeth fall out or I pull em out like chiclets. What does it mean???
Madison
Oh wow Sette you just lost your baby teeth in the most horrifyingly painful and bloody way! Time to go fuck off in the woods until you turn 12 and get eaten!
Manic Raven
Sette is so spry <3 re. your comment Wednesday about this not being shonen, I think the battle manga genre would be vastly improved (in lieu of driving itself off a cliff) by having its requisite power beams be powered by trauma dumps instead of the metaphysics of friendship or whatevs
Luuuuuuu
'The cruelty was important to him' gives me extra goosepumps here. Like he didn't just design her and Jac's bodies but the whole rituals of how they're raised and treated, and this would be a Big and Significant Event of Significance.
Madison
Also ooouhhh poor baby poor Sette’s, I can’t imagine Khette enjoys this time especially re: that one ask you answered about when Sette was raised until….
Madison
I…. I was…. Right? I WAS RIGHT AGAIN!?!?!? AHAHAHAHA

I would say Duane benefits from -accepting- his past, and all that he's been through. If he forgot it though, the way our pointy girls are so keen to, I think he'd suffer for it the same way they potentially have. It's often said that acceptance beats avoidance. First Sette has spent a thousand years not accepting what her family did to her, with it eating her up inside. First chance she got, she dumped all knowledge of it. Doesn't seem to have left her in a much better state of mind.
Renee
It's interesting to me that Duane benefits from forgetting/letting go of his past, whereas the Settes are the opposite

I usually just faff around until I can't justify being up anymore; it's way less motivating.
Ashley
Oh, man, good luck at the tooth doctor. I just want to have all mine pulled and eat only milkshakes afterwards.
Ashley
She's been paying attention the past uh, 400 pages, haha.
Ashley
Aww, I'm glad to help you maintain a consistent sleep schedule :) But what do you do the other four nights of the week!
Luuuuuuu
Honestly maybe she's fortunate getting it all over and done with all at once. ...'cept unless it's horribly ritualized. :<

Did you know reading the latest Unsounded page is my reward for going to bed?

Straight for the psychological warfare! I'm so proud.

Someone tried to bring a physical weapon to a trauma fight

As someone with two root canals and a bone graft/implant upcoming this hits a bit close to home. But good on Sette realizing that her memories may be painful but are a part of what and who she is?
Luuuuuuu
I have a whole Thing about it
Ashley
I literally had this nightmare last night, but my brain had spoilers, so.

Tooth Fairy Sette wouldn't leave a sem under the pillow but a crudely drawn note insulting the kid for having their tooth stolen along with everything else of value in the house.
Luuuuuuu
I guess I was close with POCKET SADNESS because ugh, I just realized if she wasn't sent out into the woods before her teeth came out - it was probably horribly ritualized, given The Man's fascination with cruelty.
Mister Scarecrow
Imagine? Okay, hold on a second... Yeah that's unpleasant.
Rifter
Hey we were half-right! Pocket... Errr, something!
Luuuuuuu
Also :C I've had this nightmare, these poor kids and that's all of them at once too, ugh
Luuuuuuu
POCKET TEETH! We were all wrong.
