I'm reading Licht's route now, and it would be so nice to finally hear his voice… but… By the time the voices are added, I'll probably be almost finished. Such a bad timing…

Prince Yves,
Thank you so much for this blog - I'm really enjoying reading it.
I've been baking bread and sweets for a few years now, with mixed success (happy to note that I actually managed a pie crust last year). I'm about to take the next logical step... grow my own sourdough starter.
Any words of advice? I'm a bit nervous about it. It seems like such a delicate process.
Thank you in advance, Your Highness.
Hello, there.
I'm so grateful to hear you've been enjoying my blog. I'm glad I can bring happiness to someone in any kind of way.
Congratulations on the pie crust, those can be quite difficult to work with. Especially without modern refrigeration.
(What's that?)
(... I have no idea, Licht. What did I just say?)
A-anyway. Don't be too scared. A sourdough starter is actually a very hardy thing once it's grown a decent size! Sometimes I forget to feed mine for weeks at a time, and it's just fine!
But, please make sure to feed yours regularly ^^;
My words of advice are:
Make sure your water is pure. Either spring water or distilled water. Any chlorine or other unwanted minerals can kill your starter.
(What's chlorine?)
(I don't know!! Now please get out of the kitchen before you start a fire, Licht. I'll start on your darioles soon.)
Also, use either bread flour or all purpose flour to begin with. You can phase it out for some other type of flour when it's matured. It's easiest to see the consistency and reactions when using the flours I recommended above.
Lastly, be careful of the water temperature. Lukewarm water will give you best results in the starting stages. Room temperature water will work fine when it is mature. Do NOT use hot water, it will kill everything.
As for general maintenance, I feed my starter once every two weeks or so. Make sure to discard some starter if you haven't used any, otherwise you might end up with an overflowing mess.
When you store it, it NEEDS to be in a container that is not airtight. It will shatter from the escaping gas otherwise. I use a jar with a wire clamped lid. If you remove the rubber gasket, it won't be airtight.
(What's-)
(LEON I SWEAR-)
You can also simply place the lid of a jar over the top.
And although it's not necessary, I recommend getting a Danish dough whisk.
...
No one this time? Good.
Anyway, it's quite helpful for mixing the started thoroughly when you feed it, and nothing will get stuck inside.
Oh, one more thing. Do you have a scale? If not, get one. Non negotiable. Your starter must be fed equal amounts of water and flour by weight once it has matured.
I think that's everything! Let me know if you have any questions.
Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to go lie down. All this breaking the 4th wall has got me very tired.
-Yves Kloss

It all started with a sketch of a horse and then I wanted to draw a rider for it... So here is Klein Twins :)
And huge thank you for all the nice comments and compliments in the tags! 💜💜
I love to read your thoughts about Clavis and it has also been nice to see that people have enjoyed my ramblings about that gentleman gremlin ^^
I was asked what route I took: I took dramatic route : D that's my default because I want to see what happens xd But for Clavis, I will most certainly do the romantic one too. But after Gilbert because I made a deal with a friend of mine that I got to play this game too. That we would do Gilbert's route next.
I'm looking forward to it actually, I know it might sound bit weird since I said in the last post that I probably couldn't do Chev's route because what happens in Clavis's... But I think the devil is in the details. With Gilbert (and Silvio) I know from the start that this is going to be a helluva toxic relationship and these guys are nuts. With Chev... it is more a tone issue and how he is shown. I probably could talk about it more at some point why I think that, but I will spare you guys from it now. But those are purely my opinions, no hate if you are a fan of his ^^

One thing i always think about is was the king clueless about how the twins were being treated by their mom or did he just choose to stay ignorant about it

OMG DID YOU GUYS SEE THE NEW JP UPDATE?! THERE ARE CHIBIS JUST LIKE VAMP BETWEEN LOADING 🥹🥹🥹🥹
Translations below
It is rumored that...
Clavis was suffering from cowlicks, and so developed his own hair oil. He showed it off town and it flew off the shelves. It's a popular product even today...
It is rumored that...
When Luke often takes naps in the garden, the animals gather around him and begin to nap together. Sometimes there are so many that you can't even get within a 10m/30ft radius of him...
It is rumored that...
Yves sometimes shares the sweets he makes with the animals that live in the royal court...
It is rumored that...
His beloved horse, Maron, loves Licht so much that she won't let go of him, and Licht even sleeps with Maron in the stable...
It is rumored that...
While Nokto generally spends his nights seducing women, he occasionally visits the library late at night to study. When he ends up bumping into Clavis, it creates a very awkward atmosphere...
It is rumored that...
The first time Keith compounded a truth-telling agent to try it out for himself, his butler desperately tried to stop him...
It is rumored that...
If you pass by Rio's room, you can sometimes hear passionate confessions like "I adore you!" and "I love you!"
It is rumored that...
One can often see servants lining up in hopes of being picked to serve Silvio so they can get a reward later...
It is rumored that...
On days when Jin discovers a delicious drink*, you can hear him humming/whistling in the bathroom...
* Note i think this means more like "a new cocktail recipe" or a new drink on a menu at a bar or something
It is rumored that...
During his stay at Rhodolite Castle, Gilbert was often seen going to the kitchen, and after he left, a large amount of food would have disappeared completely...
It is rumored that...
Leon, being a popular man, has been confessed to by girls as young as 5 years old and as old as grandmothers in their 60s...
It is rumored that...
The name Chevalier is derived from the fact that the Michele family has been a family of knights for generations...*
*Note that "knight" in French is literally chevalier.
It is rumored that...
The bureaucrats who respect Sariel all seem to own Sariel's favorite quill, and it is said that you can tell if someone is a Sariel fan by looking at the quill they use...

Ikeprinces Ranked By
Their Swim Speed
God Tier
RIO . This may be controversial, and while in practice his speed seems indistinguishable from Silvio’s, on paper it’s a different story. He didn’t survive a lifetime of well-intentioned harassment and water chases to come out as the loser. And frankly, even Silvio’s a little proud of his bro.
SILVIO . (Bane-voice) They say he was born in the sea. A sea of amniotic fluid.
LUKE . What he lacks in swim speed (which he doesn’t) he makes up for in sheer power.
Olympic Tier
KEITH . He is a powerful, tol boi.
LICHT . Our exercise king does not limit himself to activities on land.
JIN . You can’t be in his line of work and risk getting caught, no matter the terrain.
SARIEL . His regular outfit is basically a medieval goth wetsuit.
LEON . Faster than Chev? What? Am I on drugs? They have comparable swim speeds, but Leon has a sleight height advantage which he has learned to make exquisite use of.
CHEVALIER . What he lacks in swim speed he makes up for in sheer power and underwater presence. Shark energy.
Wet Clavis Tier
CLAVIS . What kind of list would this be if Clavis wasn’t exactly one spot below Chev.
Weenie Hut Jr. Tier
NOKTO . No
YVES . Ponds hate him. Mud wants to date him.
GILBERT . You cannot measure what does not exist.

Keith's route shows how naive and completely unaware Yves is, and on the contrary, how unexpectedly insightful Licht.
I really love this guy, but he usually shows no interest in anything at all, except swordplay and horseback riding… But he notices the smallest details and recognises love affairs… This man is a mystery…
I love it)
