Coming attractions from Hella Schouten in the next while:
WIFEHOUND
Postwar mechsploitation / lesbian misogyny
Elena Malborough dedicates herself to marriage to escape some kind of dog-based trauma from the war. Will her wife’s attempts to figure out what happened to her soothe domestic tensions, or change the both of them for the worse?
No Hounds Go
Mechsploitation / dommebreaking / shitty labor politics
The Empire’s need for hounds grows, and so does its retinue of Handlers. More oversight, specialized hounds and imposed deadlines threaten to undermine the image a Handler needs to function. Can the most self-centered women in the world find it in themselves to come together in solidarity? Or will they simply be trampled in the struggle between Supreme Army Command and the Handler-President of the Union?
Little treat (microfic)
Mechsploitation / execution / hanging / snuff
There really is nothing better than watching a girl pathetically kick her feet as she is slowly hanged to death. Luckily, today’s execution of a ‘handler’ means no one will mind you giving yourself a little treat (making the rope way too short)
Unnamed Hound Empress Story
Reverse mechsploitation but it goes wrong
They killed your Handler and paraded you around as proof hounds can be rehabilitated. You sit in the lavish manor they tell you pilot nobility deserves. There are only two things on your mind: How much you miss the feeling of a muzzle pressed against your face, and how good the weight of a crown would feel upon your head.
