MCL NG Ep 16 edit

Did I just skip an episode? Yeah...

It's not that I didn't like the last episode, but I just didn't feel like editing the illustration. Maybe I'll finish it some other time. But I did liked this one, so I started editing when the episdoe was relased and I just finished now.

I did like the episode and how we got to find out more about Jason's dad. We also had a sweet moment seeing him so vulnerable. I like it when he's like that.

Some HC:

Believe it or not, Elizabeth also had someone she wanted to visit. It's her godmother, Meilah. She died when Elizabeth was very young.

Whenever they were at Jason's dad's grave, his mom was watching from afar. Elizabeth did see her but didn't know who she was.

She felt overwhelmed whenever Jason introduced her to his dad, that she shed some tears but quickly regained her composure.

At this point, Elizabeth pretty much likes Jason but won't confess since she thinks he will make fun of her or something, or use this against her.

Here's the outfit:

Jason's past info reveal on EP. Five X My own thoughts...

After playing the latest episode of MCL New Gen I had to do this post because when Jason told us about his father I almost fell of my chair screaming "OMG I WAS RIGHT???!!!!!" For those who didn't play the episode 5 yet: 🚨⚠️spoilers 🚨⚠️

So... I had this feeling that Beemoov was going to introduce a family drama for Jason, particularly involving his father, to justify his poor behavior, ya know? Like...: the typical story where the teenager loses his father, faces family problems and ends up becoming bitter and tough because of it. The whole "family is a mess" narrative LOL (I honestly hate that concept of "You can heal she/he" thing that usually come together with this kinda plot, that's why even though I made a difficult past for Jason in my fic, he secretly goes into therapy often... so Candy won't need to worry about being a damn "healer" for him 😂)

In fact, I even considered killing his father when Jason was a teenager in my fanfic because I was so sure his dad was dead. But then I thought, "No... Beemoov wouldn't use that cliché of the man who lost his father too soon and had to take on family responsibilities at 18, right? What a drama!"

So, today I'm here to justify the plot I thought about to you: I didn't kill off Jason's father in my fanfic because in my mind it would be too obvious and cliché. Instead, I wanted to explore a different angle that still included family issues and could add depth into Jason's character. But then... I realized that my own story also ended up being quite dramatic LMAO 🤣😅🤐

The way I created Jason's family tragedy, I know it got intense, and sometimes I feel like such a villain for it (~crying in author language~). For a kid, it must be very though waking up from an accident and listening "So... Your father is in a coma. We don't know if he'll wake up or no. He can live but he can also die suddenly, be prepared." And then you wake up everyday hoping your father will wake up but he didn't and you get nothing instead of a fake hope that the next day will be different... You are unsure if he's going to live or die. You didn't lost the person, but you lost its presence, voice, bad jokes, caring, etc. However, you still don't want to lose hope. So, for Jason kid it was like "I'll do my best everyday so when papa wakes up he'll be proud of me :D"

I decided to put Jason's father (I named him as Gregory) through a coma when Jason was a kid for two main reasons: 1) Give Jason a motivation and 2) don't make him deal with "taking care family matters out of the blue" once he was too young.

> That leads to his uncle (named Viktor) accompanying Jason's growth and teaching him everything about the family business, being a leader and etc. Of course Viktor had an aggressive method once Jason father's part of the family is crap and cruel (as I shared on this post).

Despite growing up with his uncle filling his head with nonsense about love being a weakness and such things, young Jason didn't want to be bitter and iced-heart like that. (Yep, he was a hectic kid but that doesn't mean he was evil, he just liked to have fun messing around.) He remembered his father being kind and gentle, almost as if he wanted to break the tough mold of the family. But later Jason faced many disappointments because, being from a wealthy family, (BTW, I got kinda sad when Jason said they were not rich in the EP 5, but now that's done and I don't regret describing his family the way I did once we didn't have any information hehehe) many people around them were fake. He also suffered bullying for being skinny, so... All of those bad things led him to think around the age of 16-17: "Well, there's no other way. When I'm not at home I'll have to put on this mask that my uncle taught me so others won't walk all over me."

However, internally Jason still held hope that Gregory would wake up someday and... Within his good heart, there was the desire of wanting to make his dad proud ~if he woke up~ Jason had as a kid > it still remained there in his mind, so he gave his best effort in everything they put he to do back that time. But at a certain point there was so much pressure on the poor boy that he ended up having a breakdown. 'Do this' 'Don't do that' 'Be perfect' 'Get good grades' 'Blah blah blah'... At the age of 18-19 Jason found himself having like those "I'VE HAD ENOUGH!" moments of life LOL 🤣 He never really liked everything the Mendal stood for, anyway. He always found it a drag to attend luxury dinners, close deals and pretend to be someone he wasn't… Jason ended up becoming a rebellious young-adult despite being studious and dedicated to his goals.

And then things got worse when Jason was near his 20-21 years old: his father sadly woke up in a minimally conscious state. (So: today his father is not dead, but he's not "living" as well. You know? When someone is awake but can't talk, move, etc. sometimes the person can exhibit limited and inconsistent responses to external stimuli, but that's all.) I think that was the "breaking point". Jason got deeply disappointed: He felt like everything he had done in his entire life was for nothing. As a result, the dark-haired began to exhibit dysfunctional behavior, skipping work at the family company, arriving late etc, etc. Viktor took advantage of this moment of weakness and convinced the board/the general council that Jason became irresponsible, went off the rail and therefore was unfit for any leadership position and would never be good enough to take the vice president or president's company role. That made our hated beloved protagonist really angry, it felt like a big betrayal for him. Following that, in a fit of impulsivity, Jason had those moments of "'Fuck you guys. I don't need you idiots. My family sucks and I'll prove them that I can make it on my own without using my father's name.' And that's why he resigned from his position and began working on something else, which would later culminate in the founding of Goldreamz. (Fortunately, this was the moment he decided to start seeing a therapist again, for our sake's.)

Well... I gave you too many spoilers of the fic already, so, basically: Jason’s past sucks and his journey in my point of view is intertwined with themes of redemption, ambition, growing and a desire to protect those he cares about besides his own heart ~which he chooses to not open up with random people. He's not an asshole/jerk, but he decides consciously to behave as if he is one because a bunch of internal reasons. (His therapist is still trying to work on that btw 👀) Jason only shows his truly self when he with his mom, brother, close friends and some of his mother's relatives. (And hopefully, near Candy... As time goes by and they fall for each other) Selective behavior, ya know? It is common for people undergoing therapy to selectively share their true feelings and thoughts with a trusted inner circle, while emotionally protecting themselves from others. Besides, we must remember that therapy is a long and sometimes non-linear process: Jason may resist complete changes, preferring to maintain a protective behavior while slowly working on his internal issues. Jason does not intend to change it, actually. He's happy with only the people he cares about knowing who he truly is... He's like: "bitch, I don't care" about the others. 😅😆

With all of that said: I can’t wait to delve deeper into Jason's motivations in my upcoming chapters, exploring the intricate web of personal and professional stakes that drive Jason’s actions. 🤭 Stay tuned for more revelations and twists 🤪

If you’ve been following my fanfic, let me know your thoughts on Jason’s development and how you think his backstory ties into the larger narrative. And if you’re just catching up on the game itself (MCL New Gen), what do you think of the latest episode? Let’s discuss!

If you're not following my fanfic, I recommend you read this post first 😅 Thank you all for supporting my work and crazy ideas 💖

I finished playing mcl alternate life with lysander and now I am so sad 😭😭😭

It was so cute (maybe bside ep 5🙂 it was kinda traumatic actually) and oh my god

I am so emotional over such silly things like 😭

But overall I loved it (maybe also bside the moment when lysander took us to the cemetery because I almost started to cry) (and that cemetery moment made me realise that maybe I have a type of a boy in those games because ep 16 of mcl ng with jason if you know you know was also so traumatising for me)

Yeah anyway now I am sad and i have 127 AP left so I can't do anything

I thought to myself that maybe next I will play alternate life with Armin? I saw the first episode and it was so nice like cmon 🤭

💔 sorry for mistakes and typos I am just not functioning well today

[glittermaidsposts]

Idk why but i get ep 26 og mcl vubes from ep 16..will see trmw :D

[yukina-otome]

Opinion on MCL UL and on episode 16:

I stopped playing mcl long time ago when there were only 5 to 6 episode on university life. I couldn't take it after my babes Lysander and Armin were taken away. I tried i really tried but to no avail. I just couldn't get into Mcl anymore.

Even tho i stopped playing i kept myself informed about the plot, the game, the characters and the illustrations.

And so when i saw this episode cgs i was like god this is getting hot ! I need to know what happened. And so i found myself watching Aerie's videos.

So here is my opinion:

1-Hyun's route:

This route have less drama than a 1 year old baby's life. Its a very dramaless route. Not that i mind. I dont mind routes that are sweet and peacefull for the most part (Ikerev Ray). But god oh god is this guy boring. I don't know. Yeah he's very sweet but thats pretty much it. There were some theories in the beginning of UL that said he was a yandere. That would have been a good idea and it would add to hyun's route some spice. All in all hyun's route is a flat boring route and the smexy time with him felt as akward and flat as my ironing board. (The cg is very pretty tho)

2-Priya

Most likely one of the best routes in the game. Its very balanced. I like how they took time to talk about how mc felt insecure about being with a girl for the first time. Priya is a sweetheart. I liked her back in MCL HL but only as a friend. For the smexy Mc felt nervous about doing it with a girl and so they didnt do it until mc felt better and more at ease. I liked that a lot. BUT i felt like the scene was rushed. So much more could be done... i was disapointed. Also mc's body proportion in the cg looked wrong.

3-Rayan

Okay okay Beemoov got me there with the sexy teacher AT FIRST. I thought we would have a very mature relationship with an older and very level headed and mature person. But i feel that out of all the 5 routes mc and rayan relationship is the most childish and immature. I mean common she threw herself in her arms in front of everyone, she almost called him by his name in public many times, the "library date" was just so obvious. And they get all paranoïd at the wrong time.... i mean baby just walk into the building normally, there is nothing suspicious about that and no one even know rayan lives there. Looking left and right like a thief makes you stand out even more. Now to the smexy time: Euh...how can i say that....it felt very short...? I mean common when it ended i was like : "What? That's it? Well that was fast...the guy didnt last long" but again he didnt have sex in 5 years so i forgive him.

4-Castiel

I like his route a lot. Its my favorite. Its very well balanced between romance, fluff and drama. Sometime castiel felt kind of OOC but i didn't really mind. I actually dont have much to say about him. The smexy time was normal. I read better written smut in other otome games and even on tumblr but yeah it was acceptable. I feel that in general beemov can't write smut. Even in eldarya i had the same issue with it. It always feel rushed flat and empty. But castiel is a sweetheart we must protect. The cg was pretty....i had one issue with it : GOD PLEASE MC DONT LOOK AT THE "CAMERA" LIKE THOSE P*RN ACTRESS IN THOSE CHEAP MOVIES.

5-Nath

Does beemov have something against nath? Why do you need to make the poor guy suffer so much. When i finished reading nath's route i almost felt like crying. And that comes from someone who is very emotionally detached from mcl because i havent been playing it. Poor nath addicts. I feel you girl. His route is too dramatic. Give the poor guy a break. At this point of his live i feel like the only thing that keep him from jumping off a building is mc. The smexy time was very dramatic and sad rather than sexy. I dont even think we should call that smexy times. I didnt feel hot or sexy. It felt sad. Like a very cold shower. I admit that nath scene was very well written. But please beemoov of you see this give the damn guy a break. He deserve it.

Well that's pretty much it. That was very long. But thank you for reading my rantings.

I feel that beemoov writing is getting worst every episode. Or maybe it is just me because i started playing other otome games with way better writing and plot.

Thoughts on Castiel's route

I feel like that when Castiel learns about Nath's situation and how "involved" Candy is he'll be M A D af.

I don't think that he could easily accept Candy being in danger because of Nath, I imagine his first reaction being a mixture of anger and concern.

Later on he may calm down and try to think straight, but I can totally picture Cass losing it when he'll understand how much Candy's safety is threatened (+ it's true that him and Nath are getting closer, but I don't think he already trusts him. Cass'll be like "I fucking knew it, now stay away from her")
