Yo, I don't think anyone can fully understand the struggle of being an ambitious creative, especially with anxiety (which is often the case). Your job as an artist or writer and other such professions is mentally taxing in a way that no other profession is. It really is difficult to explain, in any form, how hard it is to brain without your brain, and while deadlines push you forward, they can also be massive hurdles to creativity and quality output. Ultimately quality is more important than the deadline, so you have to give yourself grace and slough off that guilt of not doing enough. It's a challenging journey, and depsite the doubts and other things that nip at your heels, you have to pace yourself and focus on your objective. When you inevitably hit another wall, take a breath and assess how best to aproach it. Throwing yourself at it is a waste of effort. Those outside your shoes waiting anxiously for more more more will put on the pressure, but all you can do is what your body and mind allow you to do. Hang in there. You got this. I have faith that it will all be worth it in the end. Success or not you have gained and will gain so much, and it's all priceless.

I downloaded this purely because of the aesthetic vibe. I did not read anything on this page. I resisted giving it ago because it is incomplete and my "bookshelf" is overflowing with WIPs, but, as I often do, I gave in anyway. And now here I am, HOOKED, already.

Your creativity and inventiveness is an inspiration. I love the world your working with and the restraint you use in giving back story and building a sense of mystery. Keep up the great work! I can't wait to experience more.

I feel like the slow burn to a full face reveal is going to be deliciously tortuous and I'm here for it, along whith the overall growth of the characters and the MCs journey.

Interested and joined :)

I have not willingly read an essay, possibly ever. One point to you lol. This was a good read, that bolsters my confidence to continue on in my own story, both personally and as a writer.

"They start to accept the ups and downs, and move with them, make friends with them, and to dance with them. "

That especially, is the golden ticket. To dance with the change, be present and accepting of it, neither be controlled by or avoid it, but to embrace it with willful intention is the key to life, and, as we all know, our stories are meant to be a reflection of life, however mirror-like or distorted.

<3 Thank you for the boost in confidence :)

Do what you set out to do. Dive into the depths of the story you envisioned and forget everyone (all of us) outside of it. Playing safe in art is often an easy sell, but rarely is it memorable for long.

I have yet to check the update, but my immediate response to this is D: WHY?! and NOOOOO! Lol I have quite enjoyed the quirkiness that is the writing. It pairs beautifully with the world you are trying to sell us. I was waiting to write a proper review to say that I likened this VN to an Edgar Allen Poe story or poem (whom I am most fond of). The originality of what you are doing is truly inspiring. But I reserve my judgment on your changes until I have taken a peak. What an undertaking though. I commend you for the effort.  

seems to be a glitch if mc does not romance anyone before waking up from overusing her life source. it freezes. minimal saves and a cleared history. started a new game just to test the same  play through.

Looks like test anxiety in your images here. Is the whole game an unnerving experience trying to sign that one piece of paper?

I had the exact same thought! Do tell!

I heart this so hard lol<3

also curious about this. a hard sell, but there seems to be some strong vibes there of some sort of romantic history or sexual tension.... 

me too! they are hilarious, but im like which character is this? I've taken to writing down which is which on a sticky note lol

haha welcome to the club!

haha oh XP thanks!

Can someone please tell me what the fork F5 is?

lol I'm hoping it ends up being in our favor. Awake enough to enjoy it when it is out without having to wait yet another sleep to play.

so many times...like all week. I should have waited until Friday to start the process i think :P

wait! wait! It's now 8:30 pm in Honolulu. lol 

Fun fact. replayed each male LI route during the week in prep for the next ch and already can't remember which character is which. I got a Trin that is a human female I think.  Or maybe Xiris was the human female...? (lol) I got an Am'aris and a Gaia, and another I forgot the name of lol. One is a female kit with ombre hair of dark rusty red to a cream color with skin inspired by a peachy opal and eyes like Amber.  Another kit has deep teal hair with warm freckled skin, and  blue-grey eyes. The only other one I actively thought of the appearance for has a shimmery gray skin with silver eyes and vitiligo around one of them, and who has hair of ash  with accents of white. She is telaari. Most of them are pretty flirty, one of them is no nonsense , one is very gentle (Gaia), the redhead is ruthless, the grey-skinned one and humans are pretty diplomatic. 

nearing midnight around the world rn....so doesn't matter much haha

I feel you

Ha cheers!

Dying lol and maybe a little obsessive. Everywhere around the world where it is currently still the 27th, it is getting very late.  The earliest I think it is anywhere  right now is 9 pm. The 27th is almost over for the whole world. I already suffer from being "a day ahead" over in Korea. The wait is torture :P especially when the husband is napping and there's nothing to do  XD
