When I originally wrote this, I didn't plan to post it on Honeyfeed, so I thought it was funny that the bee theme just happened to fit in 😂🐝
The kit bash feel is definitely justified, since I pretty much put in what I want depending on if I think it serves the story in a good way. The trick is to flesh out the details as the things go on and cement it all as a part of the world. So as far as the periodic table and other chemistry/science related themes, expect a bunch more in the near future! ⚗️🧪
You may find a few more Video game references as the story goes on😉 Some are more obvious than others.
I'm actually surprised and flattered you enjoy the details! I always thought that I should probably be more descriptive, since a bunch of web novels I've read spend entire paragraphs on one object in a room alone (Or as you said, can just breeze over stuff way too quickly). My thing about details like that is that I like to describe items that are unique to their world or not common in our real world. But I totally agree that those details help the reader feel like their more in the moment and give them time to process things!
There'll be a little more on mana in the next few chapters, but I think you bring up a good question in regards to the mechanics behind the relationship of food and mana. I do have an explanation for it, but I'll see if the next few chapters answer your question. I'll make a note of that! 🍎
Oh and overpowered MC FTW! 😎
Once again, thank you for continuing to read, Han! 👍
