Fluffy ZenZen? 👀👀 (little sister here to be a pain ofcsofcs)
Every visit to Zen's place became a new story to unfold.
The first time you went to Zen's apartment, the butterflies swarming inside of your stomach were so agitated and fervent that you swore you could still feel them to this day. Back then, part of the issue had been convincing Zen to allow you to come over in the first place. You respected his efforts to be a gentleman, but also...
You couldn't help but chuckle at how flustered he had been, blabbering about a "beast" that would come out "under the full moon" and how you needed to be "safe." It was endearing, but as much as you adored Zen, you wished he could be more upfront about his feelings. You weren't a child! Why did he have to make himself sound like some hungry werewolf?
His warnings had instilled a sense of caution into you nonetheless. You wanted to see where he lived and try to get closer to him, but maybe he had his reasons for wanting to keep a bit of distance between the two of you. Maybe he had skeletons in the closet that he wasn't ready to unearth just yet.
Rather than any skeletons, the first time you finally visited Zen's abode, you found... a whole lot of nothing, actually.
"Zen! This place is so bare!" You could remember your protests at the sparse furniture. "Even your refrigerator is growing cobwebs!" Did he seriously live on salads, water, and beer?
"I'm not a flashy guy!"
"Liar!"
You both knew that wasn't the case. Zen was always eager to flirt and show off his body every opportunity he could. Why wouldn't his apartment be flashy too?
That was a major turning point in your relationship, when you began to see past his facade and realize he was actually more timid and humble than he wanted others to know. Zen put on an act of arrogance to conceal his insecurities, and his minimalist living space reflected who he was at his core: a simple person who was satisfied with just being appreciated and loved, not for his looks but for the comfort and kindness he could provide.
Each subsequent visit revealed a new side to him. Slowly, his apartment began to take on new life. You weren't sure where all his trinkets had appeared from, but the next visit you discovered an old costume hanging on a door, and the visit after that you found CDs from a variety of musical that he used to practice. (You teased him relentlessly for still using a Walkman to listen to those.)
"Zen? What's this?"
You stepped out of the restroom to see his closet door halfway open. While you didn't want to invade his privacy, your curiosity was too strong. A long, wooden handle was catching the faint light from his bedroom, and you couldn't help but wonder what it was.
"Handle" wasn't very accurate. As you drew closer to the closet, you saw strings running down the surface and knobs on the side.
"Y/N! Hey, hey, what are you doing, going through a man's personal stuff?"
You nearly jumped out of your skin as Zen's voice suddenly appeared behind you. You were so absorbed in the mystery in front of you that you hadn't noticed his approaching footsteps. "Zen, if you say things like that, I'm going to think you have weird secrets in your closet."
A deep blush spread across Zen's pale face like a rosebush in bloom. "That's... anyway, let's go back to the living room."
Swallowing the disappointment rising in your chest, you reluctantly nodded. "Okay." You didn't want to push him to do something that made him uncomfortable, after all.
You exited his bedroom and walked over to the couch, flopping down onto your favorite cushion. You expected Zen to drop down next to you, like always, but he was nowhere to be found. "Zen?"
A moment later, a shy pair of ruby eyes peeked at you from the doorway. "I'm rusty. Just know that, alright?"
Rusty? What was he talking about?
You had to fight to keep your jaw from dropping as Zen entered the living room with an old acoustic guitar in his hands. "But since you're so curious... I'll do my best to serenade you."
His hands trembled slightly as he sat down beside you, trying to place his fingers in the proper positions. "I'm lucky my parents didn't smash this girl when they found out," he mumbled, half to you and half to himself. "She carried me through a lot of tough times. I guess it's only fair to play her every now and again."
Clearly there was a story behind this guitar. A story that went beyond the guitar and to Zen's past, his story, his life. "Zen, you don't have to-"
"That should do it. Alright, love. You're very lucky to get a one-on-one show with me, you know? I wouldn't turn this down if I were you." The light returned to his eyes, and he turned to you with a beaming smile. "What'll it be, darling?"
"Hyun..." You could hardly choke out his name as tears began to prickle at your eyes and your throat. Hoping to brighten the mood, you decided to tease him a little. "Hm... how about a little Elvis?"
Zen's dumbstruck and slightly horrified look said more than a thousand words.
"... Anyway, here's Wonderwall."

More CMCs! Next is Yoosung and his CMC, Sae-eun Choi. They are both bisexual!
Sae-eun, as you might have guessed from her name, is the prime minister's daughter. She's 19 and attends SKY University with Yoosung. While her father is trying to raise her to follow in his footsteps as a politician and carry out his legacy... she wants nothing more than to study computer science and make video games! She's always dressed formally and always speaks politely. Her dad is constantly whisking her away to conferences. Having to be the perfect heir, she couldn't even tell her dad about her hobbies, let alone the fact that she likes women!
She finds comfort in Yoosung. He doesn't expect anything extraordinary of her. He just loves having a friend who plays games with him, who goes on raids and does co-op and the like. And even when he shyly makes her a humble omelet or stew, she savors every last bite because it's cooked with love. She feels safe to be herself around him, including confessing that sometimes, beautiful women really catch her attention!
It's actually Sae-eun who helps Yoosung come to terms with his own bisexuality. Let's be real, the way he talks about Saeran is Not Heterosexual. Yoosung complains about wanting a girlfriend, but honestly, he'd be happy holding a boy's hand too.
Candidly, Yoosung probably struggles with the thought of having a boyfriend because his own relationship with gender is a bit rocky. I think Yoosung is a trans man, considering the way he emphasizes not just being seen as an adult, but as being tough and manly in his route. His dysphoria isn't as bad now as it was when he was younger, but I can't help but wonder if his family rarely talked to his aunt because she's so staunchly "religious." Rika always accepted him and loved him, so he may be feeling his grief too heavily to let too many other thoughts consume him, honestly. :(
But he's comfortable and happy with Sae-eun. They both bring out smiles in each other and get to be their authentic selves. She loves to take her hair down and steal Yoosung's hoodies. She said she'll give this particular one back as soon as he beats her in this game. (Sae-eun has had this hoodie for 3 weeks now.) He once tried to cheat by swiping her glasses, so now she wears contacts to play games with him. (She's blind as a bat without glasses or contacts.)
Straight-passing, but not at all a straight couple!

I need to be painfully honest for a moment.
I love Mystic Messenger the game, the characters, the story, etc.
However, the fandom is a bit of a sore spot for me right now. It causes more pain than it does joy. I cannot interact with the fandom without causing myself literal chest pains or my throat to close up. That includes answering asks, chatting on social media, etc. (I may try to c0mm my cmcs but that's the extent of what I can handle, as they are mostly my own characters.)
I Hate feeling this way about something that deep down, I do enjoy. But I know if I force myself to engage with fandom right now, that love will be tainted. I don't even find comfort in Saeyoung the way that I normally do, and trying to think of him as a comfort character (let alone my love) causes psychological distress.
I don't know when this sickening feeling will dissipate. I do know that after answering that ask a moment ago, I am struggling to breathe.
I need to step away or I will lose this love. That would kill a part of me, and I... I don't think I'm strong enough to survive that.
I'm sorry. Please love the RFA extra right now, while I can't.
~ a very tired mod

Can I request RFA and Saeran with MC who is the twin sister of Rika? Rika never mention she have a twin sister and MC is unaware of Rika relation of RFA or Mint Eye
Hello! Given what we know about Rika's backstory, I want to ask a follow-up question. Do you want a biological twin who never knew Rika (maybe was adopted by other parents)? An adopted twin (another orphan who was Rika's age and was adopted with her)? Or like... a combination, where Rika and her twin were both orphans who were both adopted by Mrs. Kim?
Rika was in an orphanage as a baby until she got adopted around 3 or 4 years old, so I want to check if you have a preference for how I approach this. 🙂
Thank you!

If Saeyoung wore high-waisted jeans, would he wear them like this or like this?
It's times like this I wish I could draw because I can't get the mental image out of my head of Saeyoung in The Trousers except they're shorts that go up to his chest

They are already selling data to midjourney, and it's very likely your work is already being used to train their models because you have to OPT OUT of this, not opt in. Very scummy of them to roll this out unannounced.

You know how I did the RFA's best girls? Yeah, well, think about the Idols favorite Routes instead. That's a challenge.
Okay, I was going to wait until the end of Superstar s2, but I'll just add the Liella girls later. I'm impatient. Wheeze.
I'll go by group, then by year, and I'll then smile->cool->pure within each year!
u's
Rin would enjoy Saeyoung's route the most! She loves cats, so Meowy gives his route bonus points, but I think she'd also really enjoy joking back and forth with 707. When Luciel in the apartment turns colder and more secluded... Rin wouldn't give up on him. Rin's best friend since childhood is Hanayo, who is an exceptionally timid girl with a lot of dreams but a lot of doubts. I think Rin would want to stick by Luciel til the end. Also, gender. Rin is highly trans girl coded, and seeing Saeyoung be no biney would be very neat for her.
Maki would unexpectedly enjoy Zen's route. She's someone whose family pushes her towards a prestigious career path of being a doctor, but her true love and passion lie in the arts. She's a musician at heart even if she has a doctor's brain. She'd definitely scold Zen for being too reckless as a teen, but I think she'd find his route therapeutic because she can watch him work hard for his own dreams.
Hanayo would love Jaehee's route. Hanayo was too afraid to follow her dream of becoming an idol until her friends gave her a push. She'd cheer for Jaehee who works so hard but doesn't feel passionate about her work. As soon as Jaehee shows interest in the coffee project, Hanayo would be her biggest fan urging her to pursue her dreams.
Honoka is a dreamer but also a go-getter. In that sense, she'd like Zen's route. He went after his dream without reservations, and she'd admire how he works to make a name for himself. She's also kind of... lacking in the intelligence field, so maybe she'd relate to Zen there.
Umi is no nonsense, so a gut instinct may say Jumin, but she'd feel far too restricted. I think she'd enjoy V's route. Solving mysteries, escaping a cult, getting answers, and freeing an overly self-sacrificing character from the clutches of his own guilt. Umi would probably play one of the OS routes then go "THAT'S WHAT HAPPENS WITH V?" She's fixing him. She's pulling his ear and talking sense into him.
Kotori, by contrast, would probably like Jumin's route. She can be strangely possessive herself. She also hates making decisions. But her tender heart would instinctively know which answers could soothe Jumin's troubles and save Elizabeth the 3rd.
Nico is a workaholic who'd also love Jaehee's route. She almost failed in her dream of being an idol, and she'd refuse to let Jaehee give up on choosing a future that made her happy. Nico is honestly super passionate and determined and caring beneath the memes.
Eli is kinning V and really I think that says all that needs to be said.
Nozomi only cares about Rika's Behind Story. Nozomi didn't even want to play until she heard about Jaehee, and then when she saw Rika? Oh, dear. Nozomi is getting the lore and smothering her in affection. Nozomi is gonna either help Rika or make her worse.
Aqours
Hanamaru is going to be a Ray route kind of girl. First of all, since she grew up sheltered in a temple and has little knowledge of modern technology, she would actually hop in a van to a mysterious location because some guy called and asked her to help him. Sob. More importantly, she's a big reader, and she'd fall for the fairy-tale aspect of Ray's route. But she'd be down for the darker parts, too! She's quick to humor fallen angel Yohane, after all. She's surprisingly adaptable.
Yohane might find a weird interest in Jumin. Their autism presents in exact opposite ways: embrace vs. suppress. But I think she'd find him neat. He's intelligent and practical, but he gets caught up in whimsy too. And Yohane did kidnap a dog once.
Ruby isn't playing. She just isn't. Ruby's androphobia would stop her. I'm not even trying to be "oh she's too lesbian" she's literally afraid of men. But she likes hearing Hanamaru and Yohane talk about the game!
Chika is kind of in her coming-of-age story throughout her arc. Finding herself, finding her dream, finding her strength. She'd appreciate Yoosung, who has seen himself as inferior and boring compared to everyone else and desperately wants to be more than that. Chika became an idol because she was chasing a shine in the sky. Yoosung is a shooting star. It works.
Riko likes V route specifically for that one bad ending. You know the one. She's immediately looking for any fanart or doujins.
You is going to adore Jumin. His route may not end up being her favorite from a story perspective, but a character who's diehard loyal to his childhood friend and has been secretly yearning this entire time? She can relate. She will complain when trapped in his penthouse, but she'll also like the aquarium in the background. Pfft.
Mari is going to kin Saeran because she knows what it's like to have an oppressive mother who tries to force her into things and use her as a dress-up doll, a puppet, rather than a person. Mari is eccentric and outgoing and over-the-top at first glance, but she's actually a deeply sentimental person who's scarily dedicated to her goals. Also she'd like Unknown's goth thing. Mari is our heavy metal enthusiast, after all.
Dia is going to be the yin to Mari's yang, as she tends to be. Her favorite route would be Saeyoung's, because she's a devoted older sister and she understands why Saeyoung would go to such extremes for Saeran. I think she secretly embraces his goofy side, too. Dia acts strict and stern, but she's a huge dork beneath it all.
Kanan understands the stress of being torn between duty and passion. She needs to help with the diving shop for her family, but she wants to be an idol at school again. She's self-sacrificing to a fault. So, yeah, she's gonna like V's route. He's torn between his duty to the RFA but his passion for Rika... which, is itself born of his supposed "duty" to his mother by helping a broken young woman all alone. He's complicated. Kanan will like the hug CG.
Nijigasaki
Rina is here for the hacking battles between the twins, whether 707 or Ray route. Ultimately she goes soft for Saeyoung because he makes Meowy and she has canonically made her own Meowy.
Shioriko is gonna like Jumin's route but won't admit it. He's a little too assertive in doing what he thinks is best for MC, and she sees herself in that from before she joined the idol club. They both need a nap and a hug. And therapy.
Shizuku is gonna adore Zen. She's a theater kid! She thinks he's amazing for being true to himself and not hiding! She's writing Zumin enemies to lovers fic though!
Kasumi is going to like Yoosung's route. She's tired of being treated like a baby, tired of being treated as not a good enough club president. But she also prides herself on her cuteness and loves to emphasize it. She's gonna relate to Yoosung a lot.
Ai will love 707 from the start, because he's goofy and she loves bad puns. She loves smiling and having fun. Ai also has a soft heart, and she'll be good about Luciel during the tough days of his route. She'll sympathize with his sorrow, because she felt awful when she thought her sister figure resented her for pursuing a dream and leaving her behind.
Lanzhu is... someone who has always struggled to make friends. And she kind of became a spoiled, isolated tyrant because of it before saved by the power of friendship. I can't believe her favorite "route" is Rika's Behind Story (actually I can).
Setsuna's favorite route is Saeyoung's because she's got masks on masks, too. They both have had to sacrifice their own selves to protect what they love. Also she's super into his cosplay.
Ayumu is DEFINITELY gonna love Ray's route. She'll enjoy the whole route, but she's going to adore Ray in particular because she sees a lot of herself in him. Preparing a fluffy pink room... for the object of his obsession affection... with flowers and floriography sprinkled throughout. Yeah, she's into it.
Kanata is another doting big sister, so Saeyoung for her! She works herself into the ground for Haruka's sake, and she'll empathize with Saeyoung for all he's done for Saeran. Also they both need a nap. Please.
Karin is someone who comes off as cool and mature, but she's actually kind of insecure and has immature moments. I feel like Jumin would be her favorite. Plus she'd understand why he's keeping her there, considering she has an awful sense of direction and needed to be chipped by her friends.
Emma, the sweetest girl, is going to like Jaehee's route. Emma is big on family, and her heart would break for Jaehee who's all alone. Emma traveled all the way from Switzerland to Japan to pursue her dreams, and I know that conviction and huge heart will be cheering for Jaehee all the way.
Mia can't play Another Story because she's only 14. Tragic. Guess her favorite has to be Yoosung. She knows how gifted burnout feels. Yoosung was a spectacular student in high school but now he's lost and stuck. Mia felt stuck and hopeless with her music for a while, too, even while being hailed as a prodigy.

💞💜💟 Intro to my Zen route MC!💟💜💞
Since it's Valentines Day I find it fitting to post more about my most lovely, bubbly, pink/purple obsessed MC!
Design is based on the pony pfp from the game lol
She/her
She's a performer like zen
Thoroughly enjoys traditionally feminine things like makeup, fashion, skin care etc.
Magenta, purple & pink is her COLOR!! Argue w/ the wall
Close to Zen's height & towers over him when she wears heels loool
Sanrio girlyy (my Melo is her favorite fs)
Since she and Zen share a lot of things in common regarding personal upkeep, humor, & the arts, they instantly clicked. I like to think of their relationship as pretty fun and lighthearted! They see each other as equals but r sooo competitive in the best ways-especially when it comes to gift giving or dates! I think of them as ppl who do anything & everything for each other & are as open as possible about it! Idk they're cute & i thought they were the best pair to post around Valentines season <3
More drawings under the cut
Enjoy the art dump! Some drawings I did earlier than others so you can def see the changes in style & coloring methods-not too drastically different but you can tell the saturation was off sometimes & i apologize for the inconsistency ( I had a whole situation with my phone & recovering images it was a mess))
I am fs planning on doing more MC's! I'm still working on that comic I toootally didn't forget about too...🧍

shot by cupid’s arrow? - some valentine’s day scenarios for your otp
spending all day watching cute craft ideas online
having a rom-com marathon in the livingroom
trying (and failing) to make heart-shaped adaptations of any food
meeting up and realizing that they both hold very different opinions on the holiday (maybe one brings tons of gifts while the other has a simple-store-bought card)
“babe, i love you, i do, but if i eat one more piece of chocolate i think i’m going to throw up.”
coincidentally making (surprise) reservations for each other at the same restaurant at the same time
“i thought you’d at least ask me to be your valentine…” “we’ve been together for three years, i thought that was a given.”
neither of the two caring much for valentine’s day, but being dragged out for a double date with friends (and they end up having a great time)
one is sick for valentine’s day, so the other makes a cute care basket and stay-at-home date plans
“how much did all of this cost you…” “does that really matter?”
A’s friends all judge their gift for B, as it may not be the most ideal gift to give to someone, but of course, B loves it (and A seems to enjoy rubbing their reaction in their friend’s faces)
taking flower arranging classes to make the best-quality bouquet for their lover.
pottery date, making their own homemade gifts for the other
spending their night walking through the city together
“i know you’ve been wanting it for a while, so i thought this was the perfect time to go get it for you.”
“oh! glitter….yay!”
“shut up, you bought the bear a matching sweater.” “i did.”
“i used to hate this holiday, you know?” “you remind me every year, honey.”
“i can’t wait for next year.”
