#in a lot of interactive fiction

[pirunika]

i think i dont like fantasy racism...most are just not well written or given the appropriate weight...you want a lighthearted setting? Then just do that. Dont throw around "slurs" one moment and make light of it the next moment bc Hey its Just Fantasy

We all know those elves resemble certain cultures. cmon

There are three investigations in the game:

The investigation that the MC is conducting.

The investigation that is being handled by the team.

The investigation that I left for the readers.

You, anon, are an example of how some readers genuinely make me happy with the way they pick up the clues that I've carefully placed in certain sentences and choices, feeling the story before it fully unfolds.

You made me so happy today, because this is the first time someone has come up with the closest theory out of all the ones sent to me.

Thank you for this, truly.

P. S. Please don't mind my little cryptic message. It was just for fun. Probably.

But if you analyze how the MC "woke up" at the start of the story… Actually, never mind.

Blood Choke Chapter 3 is now available!

Spend your day with Hana, Valentina, or Clear, and deal with the potential fallout from your night at the club. And, of course, meet with the council...

You will have to replay from the beginning. The code has been updated as well as additions made to the character creator; certain scenes will not trigger correctly if you try to play from a save.

This added around 100,000 words to the demo. Some various changes have been made, including:

Fixed an error at the end of chapter 2 where Hana and the mc magically teleported into the backroom with Valentina and Clear.

Added some flavor text acknowledging Hana's scratched face in the parking lot.

Added the option for the player to select mc's race.

Enlarged the default text size.

Corrected a handful of typos.

Content Warning: Explicit sexual content - there is no option to skip or fade to black. Discussion of racism (all routes), discussion of sexual assault (all routes), discussion of gender & gender dysphoria (all routes), transphobia (Hana's route), blood & blood consumption, violence.

Feel free to send me any feedback or bug reports here, as always.

Play it here!

A long struggle ends today.

You are the Iron Consort, partner and oracle for the Iron Scion—your wife, Drusa. The two of you have been locked in a prolonged war of succession against her uncle, and thus far your powers have kept the two of you one step ahead of defeat. The battle today will decide your fates.

Written for the 2024 Single Choice Jam.

August Pierce @infamous-if

I really really wanted to draw August in something more edgy and visual kei (dare I say kote kei even?) inspired sooo :3

My main inspiration was Malice Mizers Illuminati looks, some Dir en Grey (mainly Toshiya) and Jiluka 😸

And with the new Madmans Esprit visuals and mv I’ll probably draw someone inspired by that too hehe

vv close up & progress vv

[spriteofmushrooms]

The interesting thing about Jiang Cheng is that he refuses to be his mother's golden child to Wei Wuxian's scapegoat; he actively chooses Wei Wuxian again and again. He defends Wei Wuxian from her until she dies. It's unusual.

This doesn't mean that Wei Wuxian's experience was any less fraught--being hated by a caretaker is awful even if everyone else loves you. But it was an interesting choice by MXTX.

I mean, fair play to the man actually, it is quite a cute sign of Crozier's care for and knowledge of his crew that he knows offhand Diggle will like getting the pick of his personal stores, and the challenge of creating a fancy meal for the impending visitors - "He'll enjoy that!" :)

[night-market-if]

The NM in Milo and Gabriel's routes be like:

Who's next?😍

In this story, it is kind of the new norm.

idk why but i always imagine Michael as more of an animal lover/he gets along with animals more. And I love the idea that William becomes borderline possessive, so much so, he will NOT allow animals in the house, god forbid Michael’s attention is on something else other than him

Friendly reminder

[proshippers-against-censorship]

they might not condone it in real life but regardless people who get off on things like incest and pedophilia are, in my opinion, not good people

And in my humble opinion, people who focus their hatred on the harmless are incredibly misguided folk who more than often hurt themselves and others in the process, and are desperately in need of a wake up call.
