The Aching Hunger
Demo (TBA -- Prologue Expected to release in mid-late June)
Tumblr media
You are a good, upstanding citizen. You’re a devoted best friend, get good grades in college, and life is looking up. You would go as far as to call yourself a good person. That is, until you aren’t anymore. 
When your best friend gets cheated on by her asshole boyfriend, you’re furious on her behalf. And when you see him at a party, something in you… snaps. In a fit of fury, you murder him. 
And this unleashes a bloodlust in you that no one would have ever expected, least of all yourself. Soon, a terrible, aching hunger forms in the pit of your stomach and travels up to gnaw at your heart. You want to kill – need to kill. The question is: can you get away with it, or are you destined to fall? 
Tumblr media
The game has three romance options who go as follows:
Delilah (F) Delilah is the kindest, sweetest person you know. She would never even hurt a fly. But despite that, she helps you cover up the murder of her (ex) boyfriend with little more than a scolding look. There’s a burning in her eyes when you reveal your bloodlust before her. Could it be possible that she’s drawn to it?
Delilah is of average height with a lean, athletic build. She has black skin, coiled black hair she keeps in locks, and dark brown eyes. She has a round, heart-shaped face and deep dimples.
Sebastian (M) Sebastian has always been a bright, easy-going guy. He’s always been a pleasant person to hang out with, despite his poor choice of best friend. But ever since his best friend’s death – well, ever since you happened to murder him – his joy has been muted. If he ever found out that you murdered his best friend, he would never forgive you.
Sebastian is tall with broad shoulders and a muscular build. He has sun-kissed skin and curly brown hair that reaches his shoulders. His eyes are a light shade of brown. He has a scar on his calf that winds all the way up his thigh.
Hugo/Helga (M/F) H is your classmate who you’ve been assigned on a group project with. They’re a twitchy, nervous thing, often acting as if they’re afraid of the entire world at large. As your killing spree commences, however, they develop a fascination with your serial killing persona. Maybe they’re not as much of a delicate little lamb as you thought they were. 
H has a short, wiry frame. They have pale skin and light blue eyes, along with fiery red hair. Their features are angular and sharp, making them look almost shrewish. They have a smattering of reckles across their body.
Tumblr media

sonya is an og mama’s girl right? would her opinion of the mc sour if they had survived their birth but eulia had died?
Yeah Sonya is a total mama's girl haha
I think that if she had received the proper support in the immediate aftermath, then no, she wouldn't have soured on the MC. She would probably be overprotective of them since Eulia couldn't be there for them. But if Sonya didn't receive the proper support, I can easily see her turning on the MC in her grief. Her bitterness would suffocate her, sadly, and she would turn her hurt of losing her mother on her innocent baby sibling.

What are the family's reactions when MC is born?
Alaric -- He was too stressed about Eulia being on death's door to really be happy about the birth. He was worried over the MC too, though, because they were born weak.
Eulia -- She was too delirious with pain to really be aware of anything at all.
Sonya -- She was happy to have a new sibling, but afraid because she heard from one of the maids that Eulia was dying.
Eulen -- He was too young, really, to know what was going on. But he picked up on the bad vibes and was not a happy camper.

hi! i was just archive-stalking all the asks, and was wondering if there was a particular reason you made m!lux barren? also, is it where the demo ends around where we're having dinner with the fam (i'm avoiding spoilers lol for anyone else reading)? i feel like i'm reading stuff and that i missed a large amount from the info i'm finding but maybe that's just bc i played only the m!lux path. anyways, i absolutely love this story and i'm excited to see where it goes further!! <3
Hello anon!
I wanted to clarify that both male and female Lux are infertile. I did this for a few reasons. Firstly, I think that it thematically fits where I'm trying to go with some characters. Secondly, I didn't want to have to juggle the variables of adding MC-Lux bio kids into the game, it sounded like hell. And thirdly, Lux not having biological kids was important for plot reasons.
As for where the demo ends, yes, it does end when the MC is eating with their family.
And regarding you reading things on tumblr that you feel like you missed in the game, that makes sense, don't worry. I've shared things thusfar on the blog that you haven't seen in the game yet, though you will. You haven't missed anything :)
Thank you for playing he game so far and sending this absolutely lovely ask <3

is this game abandoned?
No, it is most definitely not! I understand that the lack of a recent update might be discouraging to some, but this game is still very near and dear to my heart, and I fully plan on finishing it. I've just been very busy with coursework and have been struggling with my mental health recently. With that being said, I plan on getting a small (~15k word) update out soon-ish. I thank everyone for their patience in sticking with me this far!

I'm so sure that I'm going to fail my midterm in the next one hour. Please console me why I shouldn't take it to heart too seriously. — A reader who's been torturing her stomach by now and it won't stop hurting.

who does each character love most?
What an interesting question, anon! For simplicity’s sake, I’ll put this at the crux of the story, when certain character relationships have shifted to their final, concrete statuses.
Caius: Lux
Isolde: Elysia
Riona: Ymeric
Alaric: Eulia
Eulia: Alaric
Ymeric: Andronicus
Sonya: Eulia
Eulen: Ai
Cordelia: Andronicus
Lux: MC
MC: Lux

Good vibes good energy I believe in you dawn ! 🎉🎉🎉🎉 -sarah
If this is about the exam that I thought I bombed, thank you, Sarah! I actually ended up getting a 95% on it, somehow. I'm not quite sure how that happened, but I'm not one to look a gift horse in the mouth.

I saw the ask about Lux being polyphobic, and was wondering how they'd react if the MC was polyamorous. I figure this is where the romance dies 🤣
I'll preface by saying that the MC is canonically monogamous. But if they did happen to be polyamorous, yeah, that romance wouldn't go anywhere lmao. Lux would lose all interest and no small amount of respect for the MC. Which, again, isn't fair, but it's just how they're wired🤷🏾‍♀️

I've got good news and bad news.
The bad news: I almost definitely just bombed my exam 💀
The good news: I'm going to dissociate so much from that fucking traumatic experience that I'm going to write a shit ton to distract myself from the sound of my dying gpa 👍🏾

do family members react differently to the corruption of mc? cause it would be interesting to see them react to a high corruption fem! mc (Sukuna but fem vibe-) versus a low corruption m! mc as the game progresses. really love how unique your IF is by the way and how much character development choices are since there is only one RO!
Yes, the MC’s family will react differently toward the MC depending on their corruption level. There will be some changes depending on gender as well, but it will mostly have to do with corruption. Sonya especially will take issue with a highly corrupted MC in the circumstance that a certain event occurs later on.
I appreciate your kind words, anon! I’m really trying to put my own spin on this game, so it’s reassuring to see that you think it’s unique 💜

You're dead. Or, at least, you should be. You remember what it felt when the bullet pierced your chest, the blood rushing out too fast, too much to stop. The man in red smirking above you. And yet, here you are. Alive. Safe in bed. One week before the day of your death.
Redo; Rewind is a story about time. Of an ordinary person working an ordinary office job. Sure, you might work for an info broker and, sure, you sometimes (often) commit acts of corporate espionage for said job, but that's just business.
This is something far beyond that ordinary life.
Time travel. It seems you of all people are capable of it. To manipulate time and bend it to your will. It may not be something you asked for, but you need it now more than ever.
Someone wants you dead. And they've already succeeded once. You can't allow it to happen again.
(Please note that Redo; Rewind is currently rated 18+ for depictions of violence/death, references to drug and alcohol use, explicit language, and heavy themes.)

Play as a customizable MC! Choose your MC’s appearance, gender, skills, and more!
Romance, befriend, or antagonize any of the 3 romance options.
Learn how to master your time control ability and use it to your advantage.
Avoid past mistakes and inadvertently come up with new, much worse ones!
Try not to die. Again. And again. And again...
Tumblr media
Victor/Victoria Zhang [M/F] - Your boss and owner of VZSystems, the front for their true work as an info broker. Clever, professional, and cold—a classic business major. That's how they appear, anyway. Having worked for them for sometime now, you know that, despite their intimidating appearance, they hide a much softer side underneath. Will you maintain the status quo as employer and employee, or will you cross the boundary set by your positions?
August Astaire [M] - Hitman, assassin, whatever you want to call him, the man's a killer. That much is clear after he put a bullet through your chest. But is that all there is to him? As arrogant and cruel as he seems, you can't help but wonder if there isn't more to him than meets the eye. Maybe if you play your cards right you could even turn an enemy into an ally. But, even if he plays for your team, how much can you really trust him?
Amara Ingram [F] - Your coworker of about two months now. You don't know her well yet, but she seems genuinely kind, with a good sense of humor and a sharp mind. Since being hired, she's quickly earned her place, proving to be an invaluable asset with her skill in engineering and programing. Undoubtedly, someone you're glad is on your side, but could your feelings for her extend beyond the professional?
