"I spent way too many diamonds to finish DALS. I normally would wait for a diamond rush but I just wanted to to be over"

One queer protagonist a day (Pride Month)

04. HENRY (KINGDOM COME DELIVERANCE)

Son of a blacksmith forced to turn into adventurer/fighter, Henry from Kingdom Come Deliverance 1 and 2 is the main character the player controls. He is a fully defined character where customization is reserved for skills and player choice through the story. Henry is one of the many bisexual protagonists in rpg games with player-chosen romances, as in Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 Henry can choose to have a fling with a man or to romance Hans Capon, the deuteragonist of the game!

RPG action game, first person

Queerness depends on player's choice

Multiple romances, one male romance (Hans)

Actor Johnathan Joss was just murdered for being gay. On the first day of pride 2025. He was best known for playing John Redcorn on King of the Hill.

I had no idea he was gay but he was married to a man named Tristan Kern de Gonzales (on valentines day 2025!)

They lived in San Antonio Texas where his family is from and he grew up. He was 59.

In Janurary 2025 his home was burned down which made news. It killed some of his beloved dogs. He didnt elaborate beyond he believed it was arson (gofundme is still up and i suggest donating to help his funeral costs and his husband

)

Now we know he and his husband had been threatened by several neighbors for being queer. They told pigs, pigs being pigs did nothing before or after it happened.

Yesterday Joss and his husband went to check their mailbox wherein they found one of their dogs skulls (statement from his husband

)

As they weeped and mourned in shock, a neighbor, Sigfredo Alvarez Ceja, came out and aimed at de Gonzales…but Hoss jumped in front of the bullet and was instantly killed.

Ceja, homophobia murdering coward, tried to take off but de Gonzales had called pigs who vaguely tried to do something. He was arrested and his bail set for $200k. Or as my sister said who the fuck sets bail for a murderer?

San Antonio.

De Gonzales is clearly mourning, posting pics on Hoss’ fb page. This one really struck me

This is why we need pride people, and not rainbow capitalism. Please donate to the gofundme and let san antonio cops knows what you think. De Gonzales said multiple neighbors had threatened them…id like to see those people investigated for arson.

Go into pride with rage and knowing. Have joy, kiss puppies, dont bow to homophobes. And maybe enjoy a little king of the hill.

In the May update, one of the most profound and emotionally rich stories of Romance Club came to its conclusion. Dracula: A Love Story led us through fear and awe, choices and doubts, sacrifices and trembling confessions. Today, we’ll take a peek behind the scenes and speak with the person who breathed life into this dark, passionate, and beautiful world.

Facts from Veronica, the writer of Dracula: A Love Story:

The finale was written in three cities alternatingly: Istanbul, Rome, and Chișinău. It happened unintentionally, but each of these cities is built on seven hills and played a symbolic role in the fate of the historical Dracula. My arrival in Istanbul coincided with a 6.2 magnitude earthquake, which resonates strongly with the plot. And my stay in the Vatican coincided with the death of the Pope, the Conclave, and the appointment of a new one—also symbolic, though in a different sense. Of course, these are just coincidences, but maybe don’t invite me over for now.

Instead of two final episodes, we had to write four to fit everything in. The total number of lines in the finale surpassed 10,000, while a standard episode is usually no more than 1,500 lines. My laptop keys gave out and flew off, and I had to finish writing on an old keyboard I dug out of storage, which I didn’t even have time to wipe down. It stayed perfectly on theme for Dracula—with its cobwebs and ghostly creaking.

The hardest part was triple the volume within the same deadlines, plus the realization that the finale wraps everything up: there would be no chance to go back, clarify something, or add anything. It was like sprinting a marathon.

Thankfully, just like Councilor Septentrion, I had a wonderful assistant, Anna. She joined the Dracula: A Love Story team in autumn 2024, taking on a portion of the detailed scene writing and technical aspects—codes, spreadsheets, art coordination, which allowed me to focus on the creative and strategic side of the novel. We’ve never met in person, but we clicked quickly, and by the time we reached the finale, the story had a reliable second pilot who understood me with half a word, and so the flight landed safely. Anna also loves cats, and she’s a deeply sensitive author and human being, which was the main reason I chose her for the role of my assistant (the sensitivity, not the cats—although...).

Once the text was submitted, the tech team, editors, translators, artists, and the composer began their titanic work on the finale... Everyone cared deeply and gave it their all and a little bit more, and I’m incredibly grateful to each of them.

This story’s path was long and far from straight, but I’m glad it all turned out exactly as it did. A year or two ago, I wouldn’t have been able to write the finale I created now. It took inner growth. Perhaps some readers won’t see anything particularly special in it, because the definition of special is different for everyone. But to me, this finale is exactly what it needed to be. I am endlessly grateful to everyone who helped make it happen: to the Romance Club management for their trust and support during the hardest times. To the team, for their efforts and constant creativity. And, of course, to the readers, for your patience, your loyalty to the story despite the pauses, for all your love and the light you’ve given in return.
