"From your guesses, you were somewhere between -5 and -3. Terrible, basically." really funny to read as a -12.5 for glasses

Will being trans be an option again in this one?

Got an error in chapter 2 gardens, trying to select the first option when in the alcove ("You froze. He was close, too close"), was like "Unexpected identifier 'State'". Couldn't select it, had to pick another option

Addition after finishing, something I struggled with was some of the choices regarding Caine. Like about the end results of his "curse" in the conversation with Nora, all of the options implied a loyalty that my character just didn't have, all being very saddened by it and "breaking/failing the oath" and such. That's the main choice section that I specifically recall (since was towards the end) but it came up other times too. I think it would be nice to have an option or two that's like "well shucks but more importantly now they're gonna go after me when he dies". Like beyond those particular choices, even in the story (i.e. not only how I was intending to play, but actually represented in-game) he was never more than just a job my character got roped into for unknown reasons. Like nothing against the dude, but no particular love or loyalty either. So if that's feedback you'd be receptive to, I think options reflecting that mindset would be nice :)

For whatever reason the name of this story refuses to stick for us and then like reading the blurb again trying to remember which story this is we hit the "You can add elements of fantasy races to your character's appearance, such as a tail, wings, pointy ears and many more." and it comes rushing back as a huge favorite causing a great yippie seeing an update

Hate to ask but would a dark mode be possible? I find it really hard to read with the medium grey background, and like the stat bars in particular are essentially unreadable for me

(playing online on itch) The portrait they mentioned didn't load during the first interaction with Carmilla, then right after that intro, with running into the classmates, the ass shot of Beth and the shot of Madison changing both didn't load (but the flexing pic at the beginning of that page did? which is odd, I was guessing like new images past X point all wouldn't). Held off on going further because of it, but wanted to let you know. Haven't had any images not load in prior versions, for whatever that's worth

Perfect timing for the update as I'm stuck with only my phone and essentially no internet for today. Glad to have this to read :)

>"Wait!" Worry saturates Tommy's thoughts. "Lilith? That's pretty... conspicuous. Are you sure that's the best choice?"

Damn I'm getting called out here

So limited with ROs as a dyke :/

And it really wants me to fuck Dante, really annoying when I seriously don't care about him at all, and I'm sure as hell am not attracted. Ugh, that and the aforementioned focus on men and just other shit, guess this one is wildly not for me

Probably not the best character to be relating to immensely (though I do with worse :/), but not your fault no need to apologize. It's a bit funny, though, that it didn't used to click, but had shit happen six months ago that really fit what happened with their "friends", and, yeah. Have even more reasons to love the story now, unfortunately 🙃

I relate far far too much with the MC. Its honestly hurts a lot, seeing my thoughts and experiences and such so directly reflected

I love the incredibly goofy period accurate slang

Contrasting what I'm sure is the prevailing opinion, Aurynn is absolutely awful. Detest this shitty shifty man and his fucking mind manipulation (that entire interaction solidified and justified my loathing). Really wish we could push back against him, his touchiness and flirting and such, but there's not much allowance for that. Like we're not allowed to actually dislike him in the story, and for such a character I find that really unpleasant and jarring

I specifically picked up on the Native American stuff, in addition to the Romani; I'm glad I wasn't wrong in noticing that. Feels nice to have that given how rare it is. Really don't see much based on Native Americans

I really enjoyed the slow seeing how it got to that point between chapters

This story broadly fits some themes that I struggle with a lot, like getting too frustrated and can't read stories with it, the whole weak link protagonist thing. It's very triggering for my irl problems. Had read on tumblr in an ask that it's not so perpetual, but even if it was this does such a good job of not making that the MC's personality. Like, how forward you can be about flirting, being honestly very dominant in some of those scenes; normally the protagonists in the stories I mean are only allowed to be stammering blushing messes. And, besides that, there's continuously choices that let me as the MC express the frustration and guilt and everything. Being able to acknowledge how bullshit and unfair the hand that was dealt is in the story itself is huge for making it feel like it actually matters, for resolving some of the tension as like proof that the author and the characters all care. None of that is the case in the other stories I reference, and it does so much.

I really really enjoy this, much as I still experience the frustration like a comment further down also talks about, and I never would've thought I could for something that would hit some triggers like that.

Also want to mention how much I love a lot of the flirting, for reasons already mentioned but also just how mature they feel. Don't know how else to describe it but I like it a lot. I know there's no poly but I'm looking forward to doing whatever thing I can manage with Duri and Zahn (which again goes with the maturity and variety the flirting and romance and sex has here).

Poor Oswin getting so big brother-y from watching first some random pilgrim and then an actual wolf fucking tripping over themselves to smooch the MC, it's very very funny

Really enjoying this, have since the initial but particularly now that using the time reversing has properly started. Very fun :)

Exceedingly fun, greatly looking forward to more

Had forgotten about the story but soon as the foxes came it all came back, yippee

Let me just give appreciation for the it/its support. Makes me quite happy

Problem I'm seeing is that the presumably gender selectable characters have "hers" where "her" should be. Probably need another pronoun variable for "hers" and make most of whichever one that's currently used there "her"? Pronouns are annoying.

Still really enjoying it years later, though :)

You're really just gonna make me look up a dozen sex positions, huh? I've never felt more of a virgin (or, rather, very very queer)

Edit, I'm straight up not finding anything for most of these. I'm so lost in this world of cishet nonsense that I'm giving up

Yeah it's not like it affects anything, I just wanted to check on it or if I was reading them wrong or something

Just wanted to ask, are the stat bars right? They almost seem inverted from what I was thinking my stats should be

Thanks for confirming :)

Will there be the option to choose our name then too?

Perhaps this is a dumb question but I found nothing in the tumblr saying, will there be further gender options later on? I assume so but I'd just like to make sure

Sounds about right, then :)

This was a very pleasant experience to me. Don't know what was an intended emotion, if anything specific was meant to be invoked, but I enjoyed it. If only I had this option in reality :/

It's not something I've really thought too much about, but holy shit it's so nice to have a game that's very distinctly for lesbians, with the comments about presentation and all that, and as a huge plus is trans inclusive. And poly with all the ROs. And it has an old vampire protagonist. Literally couldn't get any better. Been having a rough couple days due to transphobia and this just makes me so happy.

Yeah I'm going through it and my only thought is "I already hate everyone and everything here :)". Like I still kinda enjoyed it but holy shit everything fucking sucks and the people we're around are such pricks.

Btw, came across two cases where it gave $nickname instead of putting in the actual nickname. Looking forward to seeing how this story goes :)

To add, if you double tap (may take a couple tries), it'll work. Additionally, you can go to the desktop version and do it from there (way more of a hassle but that's what I did when I couldn't get it to go, before I figured out double tapping worked).

Sorry, another ask, is the person were set to marry always a "Prince"? Asking since Prince Victoria sounds odd to me, though I know that title can be gender neutral in some contexts/cultures.

So this is a particular question that, if one wanted to act upon it (like to incorporate this different perspective), would require a ton of work but I can't help but ask. Why are we being so secretive and wanting to leave (if relevant, I'm going through the room, haven't gotten to any of the updates past that yet)? Like we keep thinking we're some sort of imposter that needs to hide, but putting myself in the situation, I'd think something happened to me and I lost my memory, and just need help from everyone. Definitely wouldn't jump to "I'm a fake and I can't let them know" (at least no more than my layered multi-faceted imposter syndrome makes me think).

Have you decided to reopen and keep it public, then? Since I saw that you had made it private due to it being too personal for you.

I love your take on werewolves! It being like a separate entity within you, kinda acting separately with its own thoughts, like with it "communicating" through the audible (to you) growls and stuff. It's really neat :D

Assuming you found the right thing, I do feel it's worth mentioning for the sake of being responsible that she's, uh, kinda problematic :/. Not anywhere near GTM levels but not great... In any case I hope you liked the song. I was kinda worried about putting the specific lyrics, that you or someone else would look it up and then do digging and a mess would come of it. And I realize as I type this that bringing it up is only going to lead to that but I'm too stubborn and too far in to not send this reply :///
