Ask The BellHunters is LIVE!
I'm just gonna start out this entry with the big news first, which is basically an echo of the headline. Ask The BellHunters is up and functioning! It's live baby. Obviously there's still a bit of work I'd like to do... but there isn't all that much tweaking left if I'm being honest. I can't get any of the text to center, which I would honestly love for the bio part. And in the future, I'll probably add a bio page somewhere, as well as more characters to the title bar. But I mean, it's up and ready to go. Even has it's own domain! Check it out below. AsktheBellHunters.com So, what does this mean for AskDawnAndVern? Well...I mean, unfortunately it means it's going to be a time capsule. I can't get back in, and Tumblr won't help. So if you could, please share this info around and let everyone know that the BellHunter Brood has moved. Going forward, we should be getting back to regular weekly updates. Luckily, I do still have the asks from the previous blogs saved, so I will continue to work from the archive. That said...I can't exactly...close the box anymore...since...it has a personal email now. So...I only ask that you don't go too crazy overloading me with asks. :3 -WT

Nick: Only strippers...
Judy: NICK! Nick: What, you know strippers are some of our best informants!
Judy: Well, yes....but don't you think it's a little messed up to imply all foxes named Krystal are strippers?
Nick: You're right. What I meant to say is every mammal I've ever met named Krystal is, or was a stripper.
Judy: NICK!
Nick: Hey don't look at me, I didn't name 'em. Seriously folks, if you want to make sure daughter's life will stay on track, don't name them after any form of jewelry...or precious metals...or concepts.
Judy: Concepts?
Nick: Like Destiny, Hope, Charity...or my personal favorite *Chuckles* Chastity.
Judy: Nick, this is all really, really offensive, and misogynist for that matter!
Nick: I'm just telling you what I've experienced personally. And I know nearly every mammal in Zootopia, so...I mean, how wrong can I be?
Judy: Nick, I honestly expec-.
Nick: You have a sister name Krystal don't you Judy?
Judy:...
Nick: And what does she do again?
Judy: *Covers her face with her ears, blushing* That's besides the point!

Judy: It depends on the rabbit. I don't know how much most of you know about my family, but there's a lot of...ear diversity in the Hopps burrow. For instance, I have longer ears than both my parents, and my mom has really short ears, probably the shortest in the family. For her, tying her ears in a knot is pretty much out of the question. As for me, while mine are long enough to 'technically' tie into a knot...
Nick: It's not exactly a tight one.
Judy: Exactly.
Nick: I mean, right off the bat, despite being the master of stealth that I am, there is literally no way I could try to tie Carrot's ears into a knot without her noticing.
Judy: After all my ears are still attached to my head, with some degree of muscles and nerve endings running through them. Just Nick lightly running his paws over them is enough to get my attention, so anything more mechanical than that is going to get my nose twitching before he can even make any real move.
Nick: That said, Carrot's has graciously let me try to do it a few times for fun, and like I said, It's not very tight. I mean, aside from the risk of hurting her, ear flesh and soft fur does not make for a solid tie.
Judy: So, based on personal experience and observation of those in my family, I'm gonna say there's a good chance you can't tie a rabbits ears into a cartoony bow knot...or any real knot for that matter. All that said though, I do sometime 'tie' my ears together with a clip or scrunchy if I feel like it. But still that's not exactly tying both ears up with each other.
Nick: So what you are saying is that if we come across a rabbit with ears as big as the rest of it's body we might have a shot?
Judy:I think you'd have to go to some Roaropean royal family rabbits for a chance at finding that.

Val: Just don’t tell him, the last thing he needs is to get a big head over it.
Kodi: Like I don’t already have one. 
Val: YOU WERE PRETENDING TO SLEEP! YOU JERK!

Gazelle: Well I haven't met a single hydrophobic tiger if that's what you are asking. *Giggles*
Wolford: I mean, me and Fangmeyer are shacked up in Sahara Square. Access to a good swimming hole is a must when you live there. Although, Vanessa holds back way less than I do when it comes to getting in the pool.
Fangmeyer: I keep telling you Billy, it's easier to get over the initially shock of the cold water if you just dive in! *laughs*
Wolford: Easy for you to say! *Laughs* You don't have to worry about making it past that...'half way mark' if you know what I mean.
Zach: Good to know I ain't the only fella with that problem.
Wolford: I'm pretty sure it's a universal thing. From male micro-fauna to mega-fauna, we all gotta get past dipping the boys in. *Laughs*
Zach: That said, Vanna's preferred way of workin' out is swimmin'. Well, dependin' on the season anyway. Otherwise it's mountain bikin' er' morning yoga. As fer iffin' we have our own swimmin' pool, or if my misses prefers to swim 'au natural', that's be a no on both parts. We haven't got around to 'luxury' additions to our new place just yet, and well...y'all know my Kitten, she prefers to dress sorta conservatively.
Wolford: Like...how conservatively?
Zach: Usually a one piece deal. Some purty and frilly, but not exactly aerodynamic. Or iffin' she's doin' a workout she'd be wearin' one of them athletic swim suits.
Fangmeyer: I wear the same sort of thing when working out, but for leisure I like to show off a little more fur. Helps you cool down and dry off faster. Of course, I'm not really keen on...bearing all in any sort of public setting.
Wolford: And our apartments don't exactly have private pool access.
Gazelle: Some of my dancers prefer to swim Au natural, and others prefer to swim in a speedo. I'm pretty sure most of them have personal pools, but the ones who enjoy an Au Natural dip also tend to be the ones who make frequent use of those 'free memberships' to the Mystic Spring that I gave to most of my staff and crew. I still have some extras if either of you would like one?
Vanessa: I'm honored you'd offer Miss Gazelle, but...honestly I'd never use it.
Zach: *Chuckles* I don't think my Kitten would be caught dead there, no offense.

WT: Ah, I sense this is going to be a pattern with these. Still I love the exercise, both thought and artwise.
Twenty years after the events of Rehab/Law, I see the pair having obviously 'tithed' the knot. Malcolm I imagine is still running his restaurant, which probably has remained about as popular as it's always been. I mean Malcolm takes great pride in his cooking, and running the kind of place that gets a lot of patrons to dine there, but he's never been to seek an obscene level of fame in the culinary world. His dream was to run his restaurant, and run it well, and he's pretty much reached that point in his life.
Then there's Xavier, who would still be working at Fienstag, Goldram, and Hunter. His fur a little grayer, his glasses at a stronger prescription level, but he's much the same wolf he's always been. I imagine that maybe one of the partners has retired in the twenty or so years since Rehab, the position maybe being taken over by offspring to maintain the name. As for Xavier's case level, I imagine he's had to tackle an increasing number of pred-prey relationship legal cases over the years. With both hybrid children becoming increasingly common as the technology improves to facilitate it, and with more couples open thanks to Dawn's book series, and her and Gazelle's advocacy efforts, a lot more couples are dealing with the cost of being out without fear. So Xavier probably has a staple of younger lawyers he's training to help better accommodate the expanding field of civil cases.
Then there's Elizabeth, a somewhat prim and cultured skunkette that the couple adopted. I feel as though she was in a similar situation to Yuri in regards to Piper, with this Elizabeth being wrapped up in a case at Xavier's firm. In this case, Elizabeth was being raised by a step-parent. Her biological mother wanting nothing to do with her, and her father having died a few years after marrying the step-parent in question. The step-parent didn't exactly care for Elizabeth, and after the death of her mate was basically stuck with her. Naturally Elizabeth found herself in a wicked step-mother scenario, her half-siblings being treated like actual kits while she was treated as an indentured servant. What ends up bringing her into Xavier's path is that said step-parent set a deliberate house fire to get insurance money, and took the time to get her other two kits out, but left Elizabeth inside to add a level of emotional plausibility. The skunkette survived, but it left her wit a bit of a burn scar one her face that she's rather self conscious about. Xavier catches wind of the case, and after being dragged into it despite it being out of his usual case-load, he becomes invested. So when the case ends with the Elizabeth essentially set to go to the adoption house, Xavier and Malcolm decide to take on the role of her foster parents. As an adult I can see her being involved with music, although something of the more classical variety, such as violin. She also takes pride in her appearance, but not to the point where she's snooty about it. And that's your 20 year plus San Francisgoat Hunter Pack.

WT: Welp, a little late, but at least I actually made this one. I can’t believe it’s been four years already...If I didn’t feel like I was running out of time to write my last planned fics for the BellHunterVerse, I certainly feel the pressure now, as I know there’s pretty much no way my fics can accommodate whatever Z2 will be. Consider this pic a sequel to “Year 2′s” Anniversary pic. Had I actually made it a series, last year would have seen a pic of Dawn still in her cell in solitary confinement, scratching a third-year marker into the wall. This would have made year four, the year of Dawn’s parole a bit more impactful, but I think it still works none-the-less.
All that said, I want to thank you guys for your continued reading and support. It means a heck of a lot to me, and I really appreciate it.
To Zootopia! And the lil’ sheep that melted my heart enough to start writing about her. And of course, all of you...

Japanda Journeys Episode 5 Pg 3!
You were probably wondering where the heck the asks were this week, or why I hadn’t said anything yet. I apologize for the delay, but I had to do some retooling behind the scenes to figure some stuff out, and I was also dealing with some arm issues. I’ll go into details in a little while, as I have a roadmap and may Patreons to thank.
That said, here it is...god it’s been months since i did one of these, but Joel’s Journey continues. This strip properly introduces Megumi Gomipa, owner of the Manga shrine and the last mammal standing between Joel and Yukari-chan being re-united. Then again, she’s merely a shopkeeper...it should be a simple transaction shouldn’t it? There’s probably no strings attached to the sale...right? Based on Megumi’s actions in the last panel..perhaps not...

WT: Unlike the other pages, I suppose this one doesn’t end on something funny. That’s because the write up for this sequence was far to dense for one page, and so it was split for better framing and clarity purposes. If it’s hard to read, right click and choose “Open in new tab” or just “Open Image”

Vernon: Welp, in terms of gettin' a gift fer my Ma, it's always kinda...well a bit of a struggle. Not cause I don't wanna get her nothin', it's just...with seven brothers and Pa to contend with, there can be a lotta...accidental gift overlap. I remember one year some how all of us thought to get her real fancy fruit baskets, with jams and stuff, and while all the fruit choices were different...I mean...it was just too much...
Dawn: How big were these fruit baskets?
Vernon: Welp, mine was average sized, but Yuri *Chuckles* he tried to make a big show of it by gettin' Ma a Megafauna sized one.
Dawn: *Giggles* Seriously?
Vernon: Cost him a pretty penny, not just fer the basket, but fer the delivery. So you can imagine how sore he was that the rest of us got her similar stuff. *Shakes head* I can't tell ya how much of that stuff ended up compost fer the next years pumpkins and corn...
Dawn: Well, I suppose that means it didn't go...entirely to waste.
Vernon: O'course this year, me and my brothers all discussed gift options months ago to make sure we didn't have a repeat of the 'basket' incident. And although it took a bit of fightin' with Wade and Zach, me and Dawn managed to score the “Spa Day” gift rights.
Dawn: You really can't go wrong with a good old fashioned Spa Day gift. It's almost foolproof.
Vernon: We managed to win the rights cause Dawn argued that since she we had figured to get one of 'em fer Clover too, both of them could go together.
Dawn: *Giggles* Well I find Spa days are much more entertaining when you have someone other than the masseuses and staff to talk to.
Vernon: I'm sure Pa's happy fer that. He didn't seem keen on the idea of Ma bein' around well-toned masseuse mammals.
Dawn: *Giggling*I hope that insecurity doesn't run in the bloodline...
Vernon: 'Course it does. Why d'yall think I didn't get you a Spa Day package myself? *Laughs*
Dawn: *Giggle* *Snort* Oh Puppy, hush!
Vernon: In case yer wonderin' what my Pa got Ma, welp he pulled the whole classy dinner at a restaurant thing. Granted, that weren't the gift, no, the gift was him re-proposin' to her. He's fixin' to have 'em renew their tithe in August.
Dawn: Aww...that's so adorable.
Vernon: I'm surprised he didn't plan it fer their thirtieth anniversary. But better late then never I guess, *Chuckles* I think the new pups in the house made him kinda nostalgic...
Dawn: He seems really happy to be a Dad again.
Vernon: Speakin' of new parents, why don't y'all tell the folks out there how yer mother's day went Honey Lamb.
Dawn: Oh my goodness! *Chuckles* I almost forgot...
Vernon: Almost fergot our gifts?
Dawn: *Laughs* Don't be silly Puppy Love! I could never forget what you and the Pups did for me for Mother's Day! It's just...I'm still not used to the title. *Giggles*
Vernon: I can maybe give ya that back when we had just adopted Allison and Edison, but y'all can't tell me given birth to Paige didn't etch the fact that you was officially a mother into that ol' noggin' oh yers?
Dawn: *Laughs* Well, I had a C-section for Paige...and I was pretty well numbed up form the meds. A lot of that was pretty hazy.
Vernon: Mhh-hmm...
Dawn: *Giggles* Well it did make it all the more surprising to be woken up with breakfast in bed, care of my wonderful, caring pups, and my big, strong, handsome Puppy. *Pets Vernon affectionately*
Vernon: *Chuckles* I'm glad y'all liked it. The Pup's poured their hearts into makin' that lil' spread. I supervised o'course, but I tried to use a light paw.
Dawn: That explains the “Astronaut Orange Juice”.
Vernon: Hey, I was okay with Edi addin' the Tang to it, but I musta' missed him pourin' in the cup of “Meteo-Puffs” into the glass. I kinda got wrapped up in teachin' Alli how to flip a pancake with just the pan.
Dawn: *Giggling* I loved the card from Eddi too, and the little wolf plush that Alli got me. It looked just like a little fluffy version of her, and it'll go wonderfully with the little plushes that looks like you and me.
Vernon: Gettin' another one that looks like Eddi will be easy....but we might need to find some one to make use a custom fer lil' Paige. *Chuckles*
Dawn: Oh, and Vernon got me this beautiful sterling silver and amethyst pendent shaped like a heart. I absolutely love it.
Vernon: Yeah, I held off givin' that to her till dinner. Luckily Wade was willin' to take the pups off our hands fer the rest of the night so we could enjoy the evenin' together, just us two.
Dawn: It was wonderful, those turf burgers you made were almost as good as the ones at The Grazer's Green.
Vernon: I can't take full credit there, I did have Malcolm coachin' me a bit ahead of time.
Dawn: Then we spent some time curled up on the couch watching some of my favorite movies before having a wonderful Mint chocolate torte for dessert.
Vernon: I can take even less credit fer that. Had to pick that up at a fancy bakery.
Dawn: After that...well, let's just say our mother's weren't the only mammals to get a little Spa treatment. Although Puppy's version was a bit more...Intimate...*Giggles*

Vernon: Well, so far I've met Ada's older sister Ama. She was out recently to Zoot fer a business trip, and apparently her and Ada made some plans fer some casual time at Ma and Pa's before she had to go back to Zoo York.
Ada: It was easier ta put tagedduh den tryin' to get hers to come out to Seaodder. She almost neva has buisness dere.
Vernon: Dawn and me we're visitin' fer the weekend with the pups at the time. Meetin' her was....well it was a trip iffin' I'm bein' honest. No offense Ada, but you and Ama er' as different as night and day.
Ada: *Chuckles* Yeahs, we get dat a lot. But don't falls for da fancy accent. It's totally fakes. She's got a barx accent as tick as mine.
Vernon: I figured that was the case when she pulled me into that...er...uncomfortably tight side-hug, and said in a real low tone...”So, I hears yours da one dat made my little sis cry, is dat rite?”
Ada: *Cackling* Yeas, I shoulda warned ya she was da protective type...She stuck her neck out for me when it came to mys mom and dad, and she still does dat.
Vernon: I....just wish you had warned me up front you told her about...that incident...
Ada: She's my big sis! I wasn't not gonna tell her's you made fun of my 'hyena' featchas!
Qali: I wish you had told us you had a sister!
Ada: I did fluff fa brains! A bunch a times! Heck, I brought it up da foist night Dawn slept ovas, rememba!?
Qali: Oh...yeah....But I mean...You didn't tell us she was a total Babe!
Ada: Yeah, *Shakes head* She was always da “Gifted one” in toims of “Feminine Qualities”...
Dawn: Not to offend...but that's a bit of an understatement...
Qali: Her chest was bigger than my head!
Dawn: Mine too...poof included.
Ada: Wells, dat stuffs neva came up. Neva felt like dere was a relevant time to say anything like dat. It's like how Kit-Kat ova here's neva told us her big sista woiks in porn.
Qali: WOAH! WHAT!?
Dawn: That....no way...I don't believe you.
Vanna: W-Who told you that?
Qali: You mean it's true!?
Vanna: I've only told Zach about Myra because...she sprung a surprise visit on us in our new house...
Ada: *Chuckles* Well, Yuri's like to do a little background check on dose of us enterin' da family.
Dawn: That's a little....stalkerish...
Ada: Eh, it may not seem like it, but he does it cause he cares...its just a way he can look out for da rest of his family witout dem knowin'...You know how he is about people tinkin' he's got a heart in dat chest of his...
Dawn: Eh...it's still a little...
Vernon: It's uncomfortable.
Qali: But why didn't 'you' yell us you had a sister Vanna?
Vanna: I...I mean....at first it hadn't come up...but after our...y'know our talk at the ranch about....body issues...I thought if I ever brought her up it might make some of you feel even more...uncomfortable about your bodies...*Sigh*And then after that surprise visit, I elected to just go out of my way to never bring her up because she's very...very open.
Vernon: Open? What's that mean?
Zach: One of the first thang's she did was show me her latest pin-up in “Cat Fancy”.
Vernon: Wait, like...undressed?
Zach: Naked as the day she was born and makin' a 'v' fer victory with her legs. Didn't even flinch as she rolled out that multi-page pin-up. Heck, she was proud of it. N-not that there's anything wrong with it I mean...it's just...
Dawn: Awkward...
Zach: Extremely...
Dawn: Vanna....I'm so sorry...
Vanna: I only wish that had been the worst of it...
Ada: Worse den dat? *Cackles* Well now youse gotta tell us...
Vanna: Well...Myra...she...I mean...I...she...
Zach: She not only asked to see 'what' I was packin' to make sure I was good enough fer her sis, but offered to...”sit in” on me and Vanna bein'....together....y'know...”Together”....
Vernon: What? Why?
Vanna: She wanted to...coach us...
Zach: And offer tips...
Dawn: Lamb Sakes...
Ada: Wow....when youse said open...youse really meant open...
Qali: Geeze, between Ama and Myra, it makes my family seem so much...less interesting.
Vanna: You want one of your sisters to be a porn star with seemingly no respect for personal boundaries?
Qali: No....I mean, I just feel like my family is so...ordinary by comparison...
Trenton: *Patting Qali's head affectionately.*No shame in bein' ordinary in a crazy family like ours...
Ada: Side's, you dos got crazy sistas, cause you gots us! We mays not be blood, but we's are related by our terrible taste in males. *Cackles*
Qali: *Giggles* I guess that's true...
