Ask the BellHunters

Hello, I'm Dawn Hunter-Bellwether...er, formerly Dawn Bellwether if you didn't recognize the added surname. And before you ask, yes 'that' Dawn Bellwether. Ex-Assistant Mayor, Ex-Mayor, Ex-Criminal Mastermind (Reformed thank you very much), City Savior, Controversial Author, and Predator/Prey relationship advocate. I'm also, as you probably guess by the hyphenated last name, married, and happily so to my mate Vernon Hunter, a gray wolf. I'm also a mother to three wonderful pups, something I never thought I'd ever have the chance to be! But, lamb sakes, I've gushed enough about myself here without explaining exactly what this blog is for. You see, after the release of my book “Predator Seeking Prey”, our little family started to get a lot of public attention again, and with it came a lot of question from curious mammals and other pred/prey couples from all over Animalia. My best friend and mate Vernon thought it would be a good idea to deal with these questions directly by opening a sort of blog/forum and taking those questions about our lives directly. Since then, I'd like to say our little blog has been quite successful, with even members of our family and friend circle pitching in and taking a few questions as well. So with all that said., please feel free to Ask Away!


Oh, and also, feel free to check our old location for previous asks until we can get a better archive system in place!


The original Ask Dawn And Vern Tumblr! This blog is a continuation/reboot of the "AskDawnAndVern" tumblr, as I am permanently locked out of the Tumblr at present.

(Blog Author Note: This blog is based on the fanfiction “The Rehabilitation of Dawn Bellwether” as well as it's pseudo-sequel “A Lamb Among Wolves”. If you haven't read them, it'll probably help you better understand what's going on here if you do. I'll link both stories below. Oh Also, I'm open to questions as well. Simply direct “Author” emails to “WastedTime” when composing them. And before I forget, I have a Patreon! Five dollars gets you access to in progress fics, Ask priority, and art previews of both SFW and NSFW art. Of course, even a dollar would help. Seriously, it's how I keep projects like this alive.

General Ask; Other Lethal Chefs

 


Melanie: Oh Gus is pretty bad...

Gus: Hey, I can make instant ramen! That's enough! *Laughs*

Megumi: Instant Ramen is inferior ramen...*Huffs* As Zootopian's you have no excuse! You have plenty of genuine Japandese Ramen places around here!

Gus: Well sometimes you're in the middle of a twelve hour Oblivion session and you don't want to leave the apartment just to get a bit of food in you so you can keep going! You lose precious time!

Vernon: *Snickers* Just gave me a flashback to our roomie days...anytime you had off fer the day, and it wasn't BnB night, you'd be fused to yer beanbag playin' some RPG fer half the day...I think you wore a hole in that thang before I moved out.

Gus: Not the point of this conversation Sheepdog, thank you...

Melanie: I do most of the cooking for us, more so to make sure we actually eat decent food...if Gussy was left to his own devices it would be all cold cereal, ramen, and turf tarts.

Gus: I mean...I'd order pizza too...

Melanie: *Snickers*

Vernon: I can't think of anyone else in the group I've seen cook...so...what about y'all Brooms? Joel?

Joel: I make a lot of Japandese stuff, so I don't offer a lot because I know most of you guys aren't into it.

Megumi: He's not bad...he gets by...I'm just better at it having grown up actually making the food he's trying to mimic.

Joel: Is that why every night your turn to cook comes up you offer to take us out?

Megumi: *Blushes slightly* No...I'm just lazy...*Laughs*

Broomie: I can get by, probably a little better than Gus, but nothing to write home about. At least I'm not leaving demolished kitchens in my wake. *Chuckles*

Vernon: Outside o' that...only mammal I've heard talking about not bein' a great cook is Ada...mostly cause she ain't never had time to really practice...I think between her and Yuri they live off o' Snarlbucks and vending machines thanks to their jobs. *Laughs*

Dawn: Well, the last Ada...confided in me about trying to cook, she told me she tried to replicate one of Audrey's pies as she was taught...but ended up burning the crust pretty badly...to the point where they basically ate the filling out of the shell...

Vernon: She couldn't tell she was burnin' it from the smell?

Dawn: You know how Ada's sense of smell is...powerful but very resistant to bad odors, so she might have inadvertently tuned out the smell until Yuri brought it to her attention. Since then, she's been pretty skittish about trying again. But still, that's not quite on par with Xavier setting the stovetop on fire while trying to boil water...

Melly: *Snrk* Y-you're joking?

Dawn: *Shakes Head* Nope, though to be fair that's because he knocked over Malcolm's cooking oil while clamoring to keep his water from boiling over...Malcolm said he was inconsolable for the rest of that weekend...he couldn't get over that he had essentially ruined the stovetop trying to do something as simple as boil eggs.

Vernon: The Anti-crust strikes again! *laughs*
