A Dramatic Irony
A/n: Trying to combat writer's block so I decided to do this little drabble. Spoilers for the WHB prologue, and also includes my theory that MC will turn out to be God in some form or capacity. Because why the hell else would the angels turn over to our side?
GAME IS 18+ THIS DRABBLE ISN'T, BUT EVEN THE PROLOGUE HAS ADULT CONTENT! MINORS PLEASE BE SENSIBLE!!!
Tumblr media
“So, it was you? This whole time?” His lips graze against your throat. He’s warm, of course he is. All that holy light spilling out? He’s so warm it’s almost uncomfortable.
Everything about this is uncomfortable, really. But of course, like always, you’re at the centre of it. Of every situation, from the depths of hell to the cloudy tops of heaven.
“I’m not Him,” you grit out, your body shivering. You don’t dare move. Not with Gabriel, the man who had sworn to kill you, who had chased you over hell with armies of feathered fiends, with his teeth at your jugular.
It doesn’t matter the way he shakes just the same as you. It doesn’t matter that his fingers skim delicately - reverently - across your stomach. It doesn’t matter that those eyes that before looked at you with absolutely nothing inside, now seemed to overflow. With love, obsession.
You know, before all this, you’d been an atheist. Before an unholy angel had crawled out of your computer and a righteous demon had saved you and your best friend’s life, you had thought God couldn’t exist. That the world couldn’t be so cruel if someone like Him truly did exist. That your childhood wouldn’t be mired in tragedy, that you wouldn’t struggle to get out of bed every day. That you wouldn’t have to blink away flashes of the scent of copper and soap.
And of course, then you’d made a deal with the devil. You’d gone to hell. You’d broken countless contracts, and warred against heaven. You’d had to fight for every second of your life, and you’d done it bitterly, angrily.
Angry at this God that had disappeared, and angry at His stupid mistake of making every angel madly in love with him. Angry at how He never thought of the consequences of his actions, of how He never imagined a world He wouldn’t exist in. How just by your birth, you’d been destined to suffer. How your parents would have died no matter what, how you would always have had to walk this thorny path.
How He never seemed to consider what could happen when you created one of the strongest beings in the universe and forgot to give them a fucking moral compass.
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry,” he murmurs, ignoring your words. His too-warm body crowding in too close to yours, as your fists curl against his chest, desperately trying to push him away. It’s no use because no matter what’s in your blood, you aren’t strong enough - what is Solomon’s, and what is His.
Because, apparently, those stupid mistakes you’d cursed God for, were yours.
“I’m not Him,” you repeat, hands moving to claw at his throat. He doesn’t react beyond a small sigh of pleasure, curling into your touch like a cat in the sun. “I’m not Him. I don’t have His memories. I’m not Him.”
“I told you, didn’t I? I didn’t have any negative feelings towards you. I’m sorry, I’ll fix it. I’ll make it up to you, I promise. Please, just let me stay by your side?”
It’s such a strange dichotomy. The angel who sees this as a beautiful, miraculous reunion. And you, who sees this a tragedy. One you could never escape. The angel from before, swinging his scythe at your throat, and the one who now presses plush lips against that same skin. It’s too ironic, isn’t it? It just can’t be true. It just doesn’t make any sense.
“I don’t want you by my side,” you sob, but he just shushes you, pressing kisses against your head and across your face. He licks up your tears, groaning at the taste.
It’s too cruel. You have to wonder if the old you, the one you can’t remember, ran from this.
His hands tighten around your waist. It doesn’t really matter what happened before, because you know you won’t be able to run this time.

Lucifer
Lucifer is the one who first found out you’d experience a heat. He could smell the hormones coming, suddenly realizing your fate. He called a meeting in the dining hall of HoL to explain your heat to everyone, specifically to tell his brothers to keep their distance from you and there will be consequences if they do not obey his rules. Your heat came that night, taking complete control over you. It was so much harder to handle than you expected, you didn’t know how you were going to survive without someone’s help. You needed relief so bad but you alone didn’t do the trick. For the next couple days when you left your room you could sense how tense all the brothers were. All the brothers except for Lucifer, who externally is oozing calm. All the brothers are extremely confused and bewildered at how calm Lucifer is. How is he resisting your lust and hormones so easily? They all question internally while watching him. But what they dont know is that Lucifer is struggling the hardest. He puts on a show whenever you or his brothers are around but when he’s alone you would think he’s the one in heat. He’s constantly pleasing himself, trying to get some relief from you and your hormones that are constantly haunting him. He’s never had to fight against himself this hard. He wants you so bad but he’s scared he’d hurt you.
His resolve all dissolves one night when he hears a small series of taps on his door. He quirks his head up from his desk and strides to his door. He’s opens it to see you, hair and clothes disheveled, skin bright red and sweaty, and panting on your knees right in-front of him. “Luci please I can’t handle it anymore” you plead to him. he’s façade completely crumbles when he sees you. His sweet little thing beneath him begging for him to corrupt you. He groans immediately picking you up, locking the door, and throwing you on his bed. “You have no idea how much i’ve held back, just for you to whine like a slut for my dick” he groans as he hovers over you, teasing you with his words. You’re squirming underneath him begging for him to touch you. “You’re such an obedient doll, knowing to come to me, you’re mine darling dont you ever forget that” He says with a smirk while kissing your neck starvingly. You’re mouth is parted and whimpering the whole time he kisses you, making his cock impossibly harder. Knowing he’s making you sound like this makes him feral. He picks up onto your knees and stands infront of you, his bulge pressed against your face. “Here darling, this will make it all better, open up” he whispers to you. He pulls his cock out while shoving into your mouth. He begins to facefuck you while softly stroking your hair. He’s being so rough yet so loving with you and it’d driving you wild. he pulls out suddenly and flips you over onto your stomach. “I can’t wait anymore doll, i need to ruin your sweet sex” he moans while thrusting into you. “Please i need you inside so bad Luci! “You moan so sweetly for him, making it harder for him to not completely destroy you. He wants you braindead on his cock, and with what he has planned for you, you will be. “Fuck- take it love, all this is for you” he groans while leaning down, pressing his chest against your back to give you sweet kisses and hickies along your back. He’s also whispering the dirtiest words in your ears. Lucifer knows exactly how to please you, and he’ll do it all night and all day, however long it takes to finish your heat. He has to take care of his sweet doll.

Omg I’m so happy that Seven Days drabbles are welcome! Could I request things like Seven Days MC purposely pushing JK’s buttons to see what happens?
A/N: Hi hello please request for Seven I wanna write for it so bad but I can't because it gets reported please I LOVE THEM SO MUCH-
-> Masterlist
Tumblr media
Considering that Jungkook isn't at all what you're used to when it comes to men, it's also surprising to you how your simple interest and somewhat almost childish crush on him has turned into curiosity.
And it's also become quite.. fun to play around with him a little, turning the tables around for a change.
He's not actually ever openly told you what he's into- he always just seems to adapt to whatever you seem to like, and in your own humble opinion, that's just not fair. Is he secretly a sadist? Or into stuff you definitely aren't? You want to know. You don't want him to just bend his bones around you, just so you're happy.
You want him to be happy too.
Something you've learned about him by pure observation alone, is that he literally seems to buzz whenever he can do something for you. He fully immerses himself into caring for you, even if it's just 'hey, can you maybe watch the soup on the stove while I shower?'. It's cute, in a way, how he becomes happy at every touch you offer him.
He's a cuddler, even though he tends to end up in quite frankly ridiculous positions during his sleep- and it also offered one of these 'happy-buzz' moments with him.
He'd mentioned, very fleetingly, how he seems to sleep really well next to you at night these days. How he usually wakes up with a sore throat, and neck pain- but that it's pretty much gone now. You'd told him, equally as nonchalantly, how you noticed that he tends to move into an odd position at night, which makes him snore due to his head being tilted back too far- and that you've started to wake up from it. At first, he'd clearly wanted to apologize- but then you'd said that you just turn him a little, or adjust his pillow, because you already worried about him not sleeping well otherwise.
The look on his face was priceless; eyes all round and lips slightly parted, an expression of surprised affection that seemed to even catch him off guard as he had to visibly shake himself out of it, laughing it off before he thanked you, occupying himself with poking at his food instead to gloss over the almost shy smile growing on his lips.
And it's also really fun to test his patience.
You're not sure if he's aware of your games, but even if he is, you don't really care. Seeing him look at you with his jaw clenched and lips pursed, words on his lips but never spoken, hands having to physically hold onto something as to not move, it makes you feel empowered. You're not worried about any actual consequences- because even if there were any, he'd never hurt you.
You trust him. You're not scared of him.
"Hey, can you give me that?" He asks as you struggle to open the water bottle, but you whine, turning away from it as you continue to fight with the plastic cap. "Darling come on, just let me do it for you-" He chuckles, but you get up now instead, so he can't reach it.
There it is. The first sign- his tongue playing with the silver piercings on his bottom lip.
"You're gonna hurt yourself-" He tries again, voice still soft, but you shake your head.
"I can do it." You deny, now even moving to use your teeth for help- when he gets up, walking over to you.
"Stop being a brat, let me help-" He attempts once more, but you now walk again- falling into a little jog as he grabs for your shirt, fingers barely reaching the straps of it which snap right back against your skin. "Baby..." He threatens now, voice low and challenging. But you're not intimidated.
He's yet to actually prove his dominance, after all.
He thinks you can't take it. You know that's probably what he believes- that you can't handle it, that you're fragile and weak and oh-so-delicate. But you're not. You're not sure if he's turned you into this, but in a way, you've developed almost a hunger for what he might do to you if you were to finally make his patience snap.
You've gotten close before- you're getting close right now, you're sure.
But how much does it take for him to finally put you in your place?
And how will he do it?

A HUMANS WRATH
Prologue
A/N: So this is my first story thing on here so please be nice, I’m sensitive lmao. Anyway this idea came to me one night as i was trying to fall asleep. I was wondering what it would be like if there was an MC who hated the brothers after lesson 16 and ended up treating them like crap. But if they got switched with the regular timeline MC (which is y’all). Anyways hope you enjoy! <3
Warnings: Lesson 16 spoilers, death, choking, angst?
The start of something disheartening
Tumblr media
There are numerous different timelines in this world however most of them aren’t as great as others make them out to be, you of all people should know. You have lived through almost being killed in cold blood and hell you even watched yourself take your very last breath with your own eyes.
It was a weird feeling to describe, in front of you was yourself however not you at the same time.
You had quietly watched from the staircase as you were being held up by your neck slowly losing oxygen and struggling to free yourself from the demon's grasp.
Belphegor held you up with a single hand and watched mockingly as you had met your demise. You were connected. Everything they felt while dying you felt it too. I mean that is you. The firm grasp on your throat, the burning sensation in your lungs as you try your best to gasp for any sort of air available.
The tears prickling the corners of your eyes as your head feels like it’s about to explode. And lastly the hurt you felt in your chest, not from your lungs or even the lack of oxygen, but from the betrayal. You weren’t stupid, he was a demon after all, a very cunning one at that. You knew he could kill you, however just as you did for his brothers, you had also given him a chance, it’s only fair right?
Well if it isn’t the consequences of your own actions. Lucifer did warn you after all, but no matter what he did your curiosity continued to fuel your persistence. All of the brothers admired that about you, but could that quality be so admirable at this instant?
Bringing you back to the present you stood there watching your face contort and struggle as you clawed at the demon holding you. Why couldn’t you look away? Was this something out of a nightmare? What did you even do to deserve this? All those thoughts swirled around in your head but came to a halt. After everything that happened, at the end of the day that is you dying right there is it not?
You had finally taken your last breath. The body in front of you went limp. Your body went limp. Screaming and shouting were then followed after your body hit the floor. Whose voice was that? Mammon’s? It didn’t matter at that second, nothing mattered. Everything was spinning, the demons were spiraling, what was going on…
But before the situation could get worse low and behold the demon prince was there to save the day with his charming butler at his side. Explaining to the seven demons that you were a distant descendent of their most beloved sister. After that knowledge their demeanors changed in an instant and a part of you hoped that it wasn’t because of your lineage. However with each passing day they assured you that they had loved you for being you, not just because of your ties to their beloved sister.
In the end the incident was never brought up again and you continued your journey with your companions through your stay at the Devildom. However, did anyone ever apologize to you? Or did you just forget about the whole ordeal as a response to the trauma they had caused.
Well maybe you did, but another version of you didn’t.
As Barbatos said, there are many different outcomes to a situation in many different timelines. Yours just happened to be a favorable outcome for everyone. However another version of you in a different timeline despised the brothers.
You felt completely sick knowingly you were a descendent of their sister. To be related to such creatures was enough to make you gag. Sure you tried to enjoy your time with them previously but all that was thrown out the window the second Belphegor had killed you. You weren’t about to forgive them, not a chance. No matter how hard they tried to get close to you all of them had been pushed away and kept at an arm's length.
You weren’t about to let them deceive you again. They were demons after all so you could never be too careful. However they just didn’t know when to quit. It honestly annoyed you at how much they cared after Diavolo revealed that little secret about your history. You never believed they cared half as much as they did before that was revealed so why are they bothering now.
The demon brothers however approached the situation differently. Sure they felt great guilt for watching as Belphie killed you but there you stood a second after your last breath, completely fine, not even a single scratch on your head. And that’s when they realized they were given a second chance, a chance to make it up to you, to make things better, to ask for forgiveness. It was only a bonus to them that Diavolo had revealed that you were a descendent of Lilith.
They however were in for a rude awakening when you wanted nothing to do with any of them. That can’t be right? You should have been able to forgive them so this incident could be swept under the rug and be completely forgotten about. But no you were stubborn and they knew it, it was a quality they had also admired in you, now however it’s soon to be one they despise.

What Have I Done?
.7K Words | GN!MC
Simeon walked the corridors in the dark of night towards the sound of a faint knock on the front door.
No one else was awake in Purgatory Hall, not even Solomon doing experiments. He’d gotten distracted writing, too distracted to notice how late it had become.
He worried at first it may be a demon up to no good, here to pick on the exchange students, but he was startled to open the door and find you.
You shook from the frigid air of the Devildom night, and the bright moon was blocked by clouds to make it worse.
“Hey, Simeon,” you rasped. Your throat was dry and your nose was red and leaking slightly, it was obvious to Simeon that you had been crying.
“MC, what brings you here so late at night?” He asked with a distressed look on his face as he ushered you inside where it was warm.
You stayed silent for a moment, unsure if Simeon was the right person to talk to but the kindness and worry in his eyes reassured you it was safe.
“I-I really just need to talk to you about something,” you admitted and he seemed to relax a little, glad to know you weren’t hurt and hadn’t been chased to his doorstep.
“Yes, of course,” he said and with his hand against your back guided you to the living room and handed you a blanket draped against the back of the couch for you to wrap yourself up in.
He turned to walk away, “I’ll go make us something,” he said but you grabbed the end of his cape to prevent him from leaving.
“No thank you, I just need to talk,” you said hurriedly, slight panic in your voice.
His brows furrowed in concern and he nodded and sat next to you. He took your hands in his and met your eyes, asking calmly “MC, tell me what’s happened.”
You bit your lip and looked down for a moment in guilt.
“I can tell you anything right?” You asked.
“Always, MC.” He smiled softly.
“And you won’t judge?”
He paused for a brief moment and shook his head, “I won’t. I promise.”
You let out a deep breath you didn’t know you’d been holding in all this time and without meeting his eyes confessed. “I’ve done something I think God will never forgive me for…”
His hands tightened around yours and he pulled you in closer to him as he shook his head.
“That’s not true MC, my father forgives all, no matter what it is you’ve done.”
He waited for your response and you asked somewhat coldly, “All? Even Lucifer and his brothers.”
Simeon froze, a dark look in his eyes—pained, even.
Slowly he answered “…he did. He did forgive them, but… there needed to be consequences, irreversible ones.”
You eyed him closely shocked by his response. You had honestly never thought for a moment they’d be forgiven. Simeon avoided your eyes as he stared into the distance.
“MC, they started a war, they killed our family…they wanted to commit patricide against the creator of all—the creator of them. I admit…it looks as though they were never forgiven…but I assure you even Lucifer was forgiven.” He sighed, having struggled to talk about the most painful memories in his life.
You hugged him, regretting bringing up the topic. He smiled and patted your head, running his fingers through your hair.
“Now what on earth could be bad enough that you’re comparing it to the celestial war?” He was no longer stressed to hear your answer, after all, if even Lucifer was forgiven for his attempted coup, then surely you, a sweet little lamb, would be forgiven too.
Your grip on his hand tightened and the fear showed in your eyes again, his expression sullied as he saw this and leaned in closer as you spoke very quietly.
“But even though they were forgiven… they’ll never go to heaven…” your voice trembled and he rubbed your back reassuringly.
“MC, please. Calm down, take a deep breath, and tell me what you’ve done.”
There was a long pause before you confessed to him in a shaking voice softer than a whisper.
“I’ve fallen in love with the devil’s son.”

I want angst!!! How would the ROS react to the MC staggering into their shared house to be beat up? Someone Robbed the MC and left some nasty scars.
Hello, dear.
Oh my god, who hurt you, dear anon? 😂
But alright, if it's angst you want, then angst I shall deliver!
~
The door to their house stands wide open, revealing broken windows and signs of a violent struggle in every room. The Slayer lies on the ground amidst the chaos, covered in blood and bruises, their arm clearly broken, cuts scattered across their body, and their clothes torn from the intense battle.
Their breath come in heavy gasps as they struggle to avoid choking on their own blood, teetering between consciousness and unconsciousness.
~ Amisha's senses detect the scent of blood from a considerable distance, prompting her to sprint back as swiftly as possible. Unfortunately, the assailants had already vanished by the time she returned. Hastily, she enters the house and finds her beloved one lying on the floor, shattered and gravely injured. A conflict arises within Amisha, torn between pursuing those responsible for this heinous act and staying to provide assistance. But witnessing her beloved in such a vulnerable state, she could never abandon her in such a manner.
Kneeling beside her loved one, Amisha gently cradles the Slayer's head in her lap, attempting to soothe their labored breathing. She had witnessed her partner's injuries before, but never to this extent. A sharp ache pierces her heart. "It's alright, my love, I'm here with you. I'm sorry, so sorry. You'll be alright, just please don't leave me. I'll find a safe place for you, I'll fetch a healer. You'll recover, I promise… Please…" tears well up in her eyes as fear tightens its grip on her heart.
~ Veleena's trained eyes immediately detect something amiss from the unknown footprints on the doorway. Carefully stepping inside, she hides in the shadows, searching for intruders. Her steps are silent as she avoids the broken glass on the floor. When she spots the Slayer sprawled on the ground, all caution is abandoned. She falls to her knees beside them, her eyes wide with desperation. Uncertain of what to do, her voice comes out slow and low, barely a whisper.
"What happened…? Who…" Her voice trails off as her eyes scan her loved one, who is barely breathing. Her stoic face contorts with despair as she reaches for a clean cloth, gently wiping away the blood from the Slayer's face. "Shhh, I know… Rest now. I'll take care of you, I'll take care of everything."
The night is not over yet; Slayer's blood will not be the last she sees.
~ Khalid enters the house, accompanied by his guards. He doesn't care about the house or the money or the ruined expensive furniture at the moment. He can replace them all, but no amount of money can bring back his loved one. When he finds the Slayer almost unconscious, he immediately orders his guards to bring the best healer and sends others to hunt down the attackers. No one dares to mess with a Xa'aron Prince, and no one hurts his loved ones without facing consequences. He will make sure they pay for their actions with their lives. He spends the next few hours sitting motionless beside his partner, watching as they suffer in their sleep.
~ Veldon went out to purchase a few gifts for his partner and gather ingredients for a special dinner. He always enjoyed taking care of and spoiling his loved ones, so he anticipated a delightful evening as he made his way back home. However, his excitement quickly turned to panic when he noticed the open door and broken windows. Without hesitation, he dropped the bags and rushed inside the house.
His heart sank when he saw the Slayer, covered in blood. Instantly, Veldon scooped up his partner in his strong arms and carried them outside to where his horse was tethered. With great care, he managed to place the Slayer on the saddle and mounted behind them, holding them tightly against his chest. He urged the horse forward, desperately racing towards the castle in search of help.
"No, no, no, no. This is all my fault. I should have been here. I'm so sorry, my love. I have failed once again. Please, stay awake, my darling. Stay with me. Don't speak, don't sleep."
~ Kaellë, filled with fear, musters up courage and enters the house in search of the Slayer. Once she locates them, her professional healer instincts take over, pushing aside her fear and worry. She focuses solely on her task at hand, needing to be composed and efficient.
Within moments, she begins using her healing magic, mending broken bones and closing wounds. Her attention remains fixed on her work, with no distractions or deviations.
After completing her healing, she finally allows herself to release her emotions. Collapsing onto the Slayer, she clings to them tightly, sobbing and pleading.
"Why would you do something so reckless? Don't put me through this, don't fight, just run. I can't bear the thought of losing you, please, I beg you… I cannot fix everything, I cannot fix death."
~ Mauthak is furious. He sees red. He destroys the remaining furniture that the bandits hadn't already broken. With the Slayer in one hand and his great axe in the other, he storms towards the city. After ensuring the Slayer is well taken care of, he follows the attackers. He can't wait to find them and have some fun. Their heads will be on stakes. No one messes with the Master of the Orc army. No one messes with his most precious possession.
~ Secret's eyes sparkle at the sight of the Slayer's blood. Oh, how delicious. But wait, Secret is not the reason why there is blood on the Slayer's body; the Slayer is hurt, suffering. Secret would never allow anyone except themselves to taste the Slayer's blood. Oh, no.
Secret easily lifts the Slayer and gently places them on their bed. They are unsure of how to care for someone who is injured; they don't know how to heal wounds. But Secret knows how to hurt, how to hunt, how to kill. They know how to protect what is theirs and punish those who cross them.
Once Secret discovers the individuals responsible for causing harm to their soulmate, they will not be content with merely inflicting torture and death upon them. No, Secret will relentlessly pursue their entire families, decimate their entire village, and obliterate any trace of their name and existence from the world.
Following this ruthless pursuit, Secret returns home to revel in the comforting presence of their soulmate. They will diligently attend to the Slayer, gently licking and cleaning away the blood and tending to their wounds with as much care as they can.

Are any of the ROs (and minor ROs) Yandere? Some seems like it
(;^ω^) Aha, to various degrees, some ROs may fall into (or near) that category. I'm not confident in actively applying the label on anyone other than Dearil (hence his minor route being harder to access / more forewarned than the others), due to his openness towards violence, possessiveness, and obsession in the realm of 'love'.
Mishka may be second place for the title of yandere, but I wouldn't necessarily claim that's what they are (though perhaps the archetype is applicable in the eyes of others). Mishka is very willing to go to extreme lengths for the appeasement and (in their eyes) well-being of the ones they love, and they may oftentimes find themself on the brink of acting autonomously in this manner with little fear of consequence towards their actions . . . but, in reality, they can remain somewhat harmless if firmly 'leashed' by an expressed and heartfelt want for them to not act in such a way. This is witnessable in their platonic relationship with Fyodor, their first instinct and urging always being to kill whoever is perceived as a threat to him, yet a firm rejection from Fyodor silences them into a brooding (and rigid) tolerance towards the unwanted presence. Mishka, however, while very devotional to their love is not so much obsessive, and even less so possessive (instead falling more into being dangerously protective). They talk a lot, and what they say can be very concerning to hear, but their capability to act is strongly capped by whoever holds their heart. And rather than greedily and relentlessly pinning the object of their affection down beneath the iron grip of their claim, Mishka is instead one to eternally pine and crave the affection of their heart's desire with no expectation to ever have a drop of their love be genuinely returned.
Fyodor can display associations to the yandere archetype, especially in terms of turning from sweet to deadly, but I would only ever go so far as to call him a 'soft yandere', maybe. His love can border on obsessive, reigned back and sometimes spilling over that brink, and its influence can be as harmful to him (and others) as much as it is reformative. It is no secret that he does often venerates his love to unhealthy levels. If push came to shove, he is also capable of some truly heinous acts on behalf of the MC, though it would come with a crushing sense of compounded guilt and shame once removed from the immediacy / intensity of the situation. Mm, but to call him full-on yandere . . . eh, I'm not so sure. Fyodor may loath separations with his love, but not so much so he would insistently stalk them without their knowledge (◯ロ◯) - he would more so be very clingy and drag out their departures as long as he can before anticipating their reunions with warm excitement. He would kill, harm, maim, disfigure, etc. with the simple command of a word or look from the MC (deep in their romance), but he would not do so on a whim / suspicion / urge born from jealousy or possessiveness. It's not as though Fyodor is intentionally portraying a two-faced persona to lure in the MC only to then reveal the "true depths of his perilous obsession". Fyodor knows he struggles with mental and emotional instability (for which he seeks help, currently, through his association with the CARDINALS) and tries to be honest about his state of being, though his skewed perception of himself and his actions may make him seem like a "wolf in sheep's clothing" to many. Much of his violent tendencies are a byproduct of lifelong nurture, associating it with expressions of love through service, and will wither in time with the necessary support. His borderline (if not outright) obsessiveness as well can temper itself with time, easing into something healthier and more stable (but still not losing its sense of reverence and passion) as Fyodor recovers from the influence past relationships scarred upon him. My (personal) verdict: Fyodor is dangerous, and lovesick, but not yandere. d(´¬`)b
Other ROs such as Elouan, Sigmund, Kamiko, and Jae are capable of doing some questionable stuff for the sake of their loved ones (especially romantic partners) but they lack the depth of obsessiveness / possessiveness / mental or emotional instability to really reach yandere levels. Sigmund and Kamiko have strong levels of devotion, but not the obsession or a degree of possessiveness to warrant a yandere label. Elouan and Jae have a comparatively open attitude towards cruel or violent means in the name of their love, but not to a degree of extreme irrationality and certainly not out of a jealousy / possessiveness towards their partner.
Niccolò, Curadora, Akil, and Imka are far cries from anything yandere. (Other than, perhaps, someone initially mistaking Niccolò's open curiosity towards all there is to know about the MC as obsession.) Mutya has issues with her anger (sometimes intense enough to be considered wrath), but her emotional outbursts are by no means 'yandere'. Lempo lacks any of the jealousy, possession, violence, or obsession of a yandere as well, even if she can pose as arguably problematic in other ways. Retriever can be horribly quick to jump the gun on commitment, diving too fast and too deep into new relationships, but he doesn't have the dangerous qualities or delusions of a yandere - just different degrees of obliviousness and misguided passion. Bones is not yandere but has his own set of issues all the same, haha! ╮( ╯∀╰)╭
Thank you for the ask! (・⌄・)b

What are each of the links relationships to their respective Zelda’s? Friends? Lovers? Strangers? Enemies? Family?
I hope you’re ready for an essay cuz that’s what you’re gonna get!
Sky: his Zelda is his lover! Idk how I’m gonna do their relationship… cuz the Sky arc that I’ve been working on is outdated and doesn’t match the new story of lbl so that’s super complicated lol. But he worries over her constantly and gets nervous when they’re apart. Separation anxiety am I right?? Groose is his best friend and they mean the world to me guys. They’re both himbos but groose is at least a smart himbo so he keeps Sky safe from doing super stupid things. He’s also really good friends with everyone in skyloft! Tho he had some rough patches with some of them after the events of skord for reasons, he’s doing fine now! And Sky is kinda awkward around strangers. He’s friendly and curious around them but compared to skyloft he’s never met them before so he says and does weird stuff, but he’s also chill so it doesn’t matter all that much. And Sky doesn’t have a family. Gaepora is an honorary father figure but overall his family is dead. So rip. His enemies are dead now but they were the only people he hated.
Minish: he and his Zelda are very very close! Best friends! Minish cares a lot about her and her well-being. Minish is good friends with all the Minish and with his Malon! Now… I’m kinda stuck on the lovers thing… cuz idk if it’s right to have Minish with someone? He’s the same size as an 8 year old and I’ve been trying to at least make his face look more 17ish, but I might make him a little bit more muscular since he’s a blacksmith and is very strong, but idk if I’d even be comfortable having him be a couple with someone else. Idk. I’ll see how you guys feel about it tho. Minish struggles with strangers, they think he’s kinda strange cuz he’s built like an 8 year old but is actually 17. He’s nice enough to them and he tries to be friendly but overall he keeps to himself. The major enemy that has affected him terribly was Vaati. He was 8 when he faced Vaati and he almost died (Hylia was the reason why he lived), and then he faced Vaati again during Four Swords (he was the first four swords guy, the one that takes place after MC). So Vaati is a bad subject for him.and then the only family that’s alive is his grandfather and while he is strict and scary, Minish loves his grandpa and they’re very close.
Time: his relationship with Zelda is complicated, cuz the Zelda in the adult timeline was someone he was super close with and was also in love with, however the Zelda in the child timeline is not the same person he loved. They barely know each other, and while the Zelda is nice, Time doesn’t know how to talk to her, plus when he told her about Ganondorf, he was more focused on finding Navi, so he didn’t stick around for that long. But he does care a lot about her, after all her influence helped him in Majoras Mask. Time doesn’t really have any friends, he never had the motivation to rekindle the friendships he had after what had happened. The only reason why he’s with Talon and Malon is cuz Talon was nice enough to take care of him when he was sick and alone. Aaaand cuz of that he fell in love with Malon and was able to accept that the timeline he is in is one he’s gonna be in for the rest of his life. He loves Malon a lot and he tells her everything, Talon doesn’t believe everything he says (but he will with my dumb crack au lol). Time is pretty intimidating around strangers but really he’s just as intimidated as they are. With enemies… the major one he’s looking out for is the FD, everyone else is either dead or suffering the consequences of their actions.
Legend: his relationship with Zelda is also pretty complicated. They are very close and have a lot in common, however, Tulip really loves Legend, but he doesn’t know how he feels since he hasn’t moved on from Marin. He’s confused around Tulip to say the least. I haven’t played enough of Legend’s games to think of anything for friends lol. Every enemy he has is dead, but he’s still upset about Ganondorf and Aghahim (idk how to spell his name bruh) since they killed his uncle. And last but not least, he has no family left, his uncle was murdered right in front of him
Hyrule: I’m taking a lot of creative liberties with him lol. He and Peony are super close and Peony has a HUGE crush on him. Hyrule respects Rose, and she is a lot older than him but she’s still a good friend to him. Hyrule is good friends with that secret Moblin, and he overall is a lovable himbo so a lot of people like him. The biggest enemies are the monsters trying to sacrifice him to Ganondorf, but luckily Ganon is dead so he doesn’t worry about him (or does he???) and he does have a living family! He just doesn’t know them or remember them! And he hasn’t met them in this au so he doesn’t know that exist! This is just a personal headcanon of mine so you can ask about his fam like… later or on my main blog.
Twilight: he and Zelda have a rooough relationship. They’re both so different from each other and Nebula comes off as cold and blunt which drives Twi crazy. They only really got along when they needed to and because Midna was a mutual friend, but overall they don’t like each other all that much. I’d say twilight has some good friendships, except he’s been isolating himself from everyone, but the resistance still talk to him and he’s still best buds with Fado, and Illia is still his best friend. For lovers, he still loves Midna and hasn’t really thought about anyone else. He kinda felt pressured to get with Illia so he doesn’t end up with her since she deserves someone who loves her the same way she loves him. Twi is pretty kind to strangers, all I can say. All his enemies are dead and the biggest enemy he’s facing rn is heartbreak. And family. Ah. I love his family more than life itself. His biological family is not alive but he was adopted by Rusl and Uli and they are such doting parents who try to help him feel better about what happened and stuff. And Colin adores him still and Rela (his new baby sister) is a baby and doesn’t know what’s going on but yeah. I love his family and Twi loves his family too. He’s just struggling with life rn so he hasn’t been with them a whole lot.
Four: ok, all the colors care a lot for Lily, Green has a crush on her however the others just see her as a really good friend. They grew up together since Four’s mom died when he was 3 months old, and the king was kind enough to let him be raised with Lily while his father was working, so they’re super close. Red has a BIG crush on Erune (from the manga), Blue is too focused on his teenage angst rn and Vio just does not care about love atm so it’s really only Green and Red with crushes lol. I suppose after lbl they’ll have their own friends except for Blue (who again is going through teenage angst rn) but ye. Green is polite and kind to strangers, Red is happy and joyful around strangers, Vio is rude but respectful enough towards strangers, and Blue is just pissed off all the time so strangers are scared of him. Their main enemy is gone now so they’re just kinda dealing with the affects of the four sword rn. And lastly family, their father. My absolute beloved. Their father is a very strict and serious man but he’s very worrisome and doting over his children (and Lily too. He kinda looked after her when he father died). They look up to him and want his approval, mostly Blue is struggling with the relationship tho (I just have a lotta thoughts on Blue ok??)
Windy: he wants to get maaaaaarrieeeeeddddd to tetra cuz he loves her so much and is such a loveable ray of sun shine around her while she looks pissed off all the time and I ADORE them. Telink is TOP tier. Windy is good friends with everyone since he’s just so sweet and mature but also very goofy and fun and strangers adore him cuz he’s polite around them. The biggest enemies rn are just dumb pirates and stuff, but Ganondorf really affected him negatively, so that’s a guy he hates. And family! I’m kinda basing his relationship with Aryll on my relationship with my older brother. Aryll looks up to him and Windy just looks out for her. His relationship with grandma is good and he adores her very much. Now for my favorite character friggin LINEBECK. He BASICALLY adopted Windy and Aryll, and Windy loves him very much cuz he’s a father figure who was able to stay, since his other father figures kept dying, but Linebeck is here to stay so he loves being around him. He’s also pretty anxious about his well-being cuz you know, father figures are always dying. Actually Windy is very happy on the surface but he’s EXTREMELY anxious about everyone’s wellbeing and feels responsible for them constantly. So oof
Spirit: he and phantom have such middle school crushes on each other and they’re very close and are best friends and they mean the world to me cuz they are so frigging cute and chaotic and yeah. I don’t think Spirit has too many friends except for Phantom, Niko and Alfonzo but they’re more like mentor figures than anything and Phantom is his Zelda but yeah. He’s kind and respectable around strangers except with his mutism it’s hard for him and others to communicate with him, and some rude people don’t have the patience for him to write everything down. He doesn’t have any major enemies and he doesn’t have any family so there’s that.
Age: he and Rune are good friends, tho they had an awkward moment since Rune had a one sided love for him, but now they’re close friends. Age is close with the champions and they’re all just vibing together, plus we can’t forget his friendship with Impa! They’re bffs! His lover is Mipha and they are engaaaaged and he loves her very much and it’s cute. Age is very proper and polite so strangers respect him enough. And then enemies are just random monsters or rogue yiga clan members and he’s mostly annoyed by them at this point. And he might have a living family, but Nintendo won’t explore him or his life so we’ll see when totk comes out with his family. If they still refuse to explore his life then I’ll just go with some headcanons. I do know that he def has a grandfather and a little sister, but it’s unknown if his father is alive, but I like to think he is.
Wild: Wild cares a lot for Poppy, it’s mostly just an instinct in him to care about and protect her even tho he doesn’t remember her all that well. Wild is kinda doing his own thing and vibing and he’s good friends with a lot people, like Beedle, Teba, Riju, Sidon, and Yunobo, so he’s not entirely friendless minus the champions that… you know… died. He doesn’t have any lovers, he would love Poppy but he can tell that there’s something there that’s keeping it from happening, that being him not being the same person he was 100 years ago, that guy being the person Poppy did Love, so he doesn’t dwell on it too much. He just vibes. Wild is fun with strangers cuz he’s sarcastic, punny, and weird and people like that fhdkdbjdbdkdb. Wild’s major enemies are yiga who are still trying to kill him and stuff, and tho they’re annoying they are still a threat to him. I’m not gonna go too much into it since totk needs to come out but yeah. And the family situation? Yeah they’re def dead by now. Kass is kind enough to invite him over for dinner from time to time tho so he greatly appreciates that.
Warriors: he and Queen Zelda are always pining after each other but they don’t actually do anything about it so they’re just super awkward and flirty and it drives everyone crazy like just KISS already. But Queen is really the only person he can comfortably open up to, and same thing with her. Around each other, they aren’t tied to any status or anything, they’re just people, friends hanging out, so they care deeply for each other. Warriors has a lot of good friends but he’s not super close with them, but he wants to be, he just doesn’t know how to. He actually used to have a stutter but with Proxi there to speak for him and with other help he’s able to talk normally, but he’s still very anxious around people. My warriors isn’t very smooth or confident he just looks pissed all the time but is socially anxious lol. He’s just like Time fr. He is good friends with Impa and Lana tho and he misses the people from different eras. His biggest enemies are dead however one major enemy that is still alive is Cia, who is really the only person he despises, but Cia doesn’t at all remember the details of what she did, so his hatred towards her is confusing for him cuz is it ok for him to hate her so much? She doesn’t remember anything and she’s good now so should he just move on? But yeaaah it’s a rough situation. And the only living family member is Linkle! His twin sister who he did not remember existing. They’re close enough, he gets annoyed with her sometimes but he still cares about her

Big long message coming from someone who binged the whole game in two days:
1. Whoever wrote the Abel route deserves to get all the good things in life. His bright and warm personality and natural quirkiness tugged at my heartstrings and I just knew I wanted my MC to stick by him. It's no wonder so many peeps loved his route-- he was super fleshed out and he takes a new spin on the nerd LI archetype. Not to mention, his past with his family is bittersweet, yet it was never used for shock value. It was evident how these experiences affected his character and how he interacts with others, and it never fails to radiate how genuine he is and how much reality was inspired in his making.
(Also that last sex with him was so detailed, raw, passionate, and personal. Everything is scorched on my front lobe and I will nevrr forget it.mE.A. James could never.)
I can feel the good writing for all routes and the whole narrative in general even if I didn't pick them as LIs. The talent of the writing team always oozes, and I can never stop reading. I might retry other routes and I will do that after recovering from the psychic damage I acquired crying and laughing with this story.
2. From what I've read on the net so far, the Mixed Ending was the most well-liked ending, but I beg to digress because I am selfish and delusional and I just want my MC to rest, ok? 😔 I personally favored the successful non-betrayal blood ending.
The consequences of the ending are much more direct than that of the mixed ending and at least it was easier to cope with it because MC still has their support group, but I just really love the closure it provided that my gen!MC (ironic, I know) stayed true to what she wanted, which was to continue the life that was frozen over since the incident. Shadow Ending is honestly the most selfless and poetic ending that gave me crippling depression and I loved its angst. The Mixed Ending was my least favorite because it was the most open-ended one, and I felt unsettled by it because I felt the least secure for my MC's future, esp with their LI. I still have to play through Matthias' route but it's really promising.
3. I can't help but have my curiosity piqued by how everything played out with a similar pattern to how colonisers always end up messing up and undoing the progress of indigenous people's learnings and practices, and their utter disrespect for nature which ultimately blows up in their face but unfortunately, it's those that try to save it that suffer the most. The subtle incorporation of this theme was the perfect piece that really tied together the past of all It Lives book. Loha and Matthias were the perfect characters to resemble this struggle.
What lingers in my mind, however, is that Loha and Matthias, as individuals, are the two sides of the same coin. Both characters have personal strong connections to the Power, have personal gains and goals for it, used, manipulated and forced people to assist them in their cause, and ultimately birthed a person that was meant to be the key to finish their mission.
Though it was true that what Loha did was for the common good vs. Matthias' hedonistic and self-centered purposes, I think Loha is no better than Matthias, (Sorry, guys. I know some of you might fight me.) and I think it is equally hypocritical of Loha to ask MC to lay down her life to heal the breach and feel disappointed when MC doesn't do as she says.
She shared herself how a wisp was so curious of life on Earth that this innocent venture eventually bloomed into all this, so she knew that to an extent, even if the Shadow Ending occurs, it might happen again so long as the Power has free will to choose and explore. Maybe that's why I like the Blood Ending so much, I don't see a point to all the MC's (esp. ILW) suffering so much when they are mortals constantly being tested by a higher power. I think it was best to share the labor for everyone to maintain than just place the burden on one person. (My MC worked her ass off to charm Abel's pants off I simply can't let her down 😔)
4. The team is so resourceful with reusing, mixing, and adding visual assets to the game. Seeing the familiar layout and mechanics such as reusing minor characters really established the familiar Choices foundation of the game, but the impressively added illustrations, wide array of sprite personalization, the unique and diverse character designs, and even the title screens was truly the marks that made this an excellent fanwork. It manages to really immerse the reader and I can never, ever get enough of it.
5. In relation to 4, the programming of the game is superb. There is sensible weight and effects to choices, LIs are equally balanced and don't overpower the narrative, the godsent SAVES, the carefully considered rewards and consequences of all decisions and just everything about the system has made me question all that Choices has done since forever. How can a nonprofit fan team make such a complex system with such delicacy and thought that a multimillion dollar company simply cannot? You raised the bar higher for what interactive stories should look like. THIS is how interactive stories should be, and thanks to the user-friendly programming, the replay value is very high.
These are all I can say off the top of my head and I will always be grateful for this work you've shared to us. This is the most passionate passion project I've had the honor of experiencing, and I wish you all the best in your future endeavors. Should your endeavors include another interactive story (Painted Devils can't come soon enough, please just take my money!), I will be most eager to take part in it.
Sorry if this was long!
(P.S.: Abel mentioned about having people over with his shirt on. *What's his body count?* 🤭☺️)
Thank you for sending this in and sharing your thoughts!! I'm so glad that the game was so meaningful for you <3

So... I decided I wanted to take my second Maboroshi mc and adapt him into an MC for @mata-aetara-if, cause I love the he and want him to be in more things...
Tumblr media
Name: Rin Kitagawa (北川 リン)
Gender and Pronouns: Trans male, he/him
Sexuality: Aroace (more specifically demiromantic)
Chakra Affinity: Wind
Summoned Animal: Giant Snake
Weapons: Kunai, shuriken, wire strings
Romance: Ryoku maybe
More About Him: Rin is a quiet and serious young man, rarely seen smiling or goofing off. He often feels pressured to be the best he can be, but always falls just short (at least in his head). So he pushes himself to his limits, and then beyond them, constantly working and never giving himself time to relax until his body makes him relax when he finally passes out from lack of sleep and food. Then he will continue on with training once he wakes, too stubborn to simply stop.
A consequence of this is that Rin has no idea how to connect to other people, and becomes awkward when having to converse with others, though most people wouldn't be able to tell with how blank Rin's face is naturally. When it comes to romance, Rin struggles with a belief that no one could truly love him if he can't live up to his perceived better self, and when he realizes he has a crush on someone, Rin will proceed to spiral into anxiety (in private) before pushing aside his feelings, pretending he doesn't feel what he feels.
Despite holding most people at an arm's length (or even longer), those who manage to worm their way into Rin's heart will find themselves with a companion whose loyalty knows no bounds. Rin protects that which he cares for with intense ferocity and foolish self-sacrifice, acting on an instinct that would see Rin dying if it means the safety and escape of those he loves.
Fun Facts:
Pinterest here
When using the kanji 凜, his name means “cold”. His last name means "north river".
His father owns a nabemono restaurant, which offers many hot pot meals depending on the ingredients available that day/week (could be changed if not an option)
Mission outfit is a black turtleneck short bodysuit with long sleeves that reach his knuckles under a dark green kimono-like long sleeve crop top with the metal plate of his forehead protector sewn onto the shoulder of the left sleeve, grey pants that go to his knees, and black short boots
Casual outfit is a gray-green sweater, black pants, and black shinobi sandals
Favorite food is onigiri of all kinds, while least favorite food is motsunabe
The times he takes break from physical training will find him sitting with a cup of tea, a plate of onigiri, and a book or scroll
Finds cats easier to get along with than people, would have a calico cat if he could
Pins his bangs back when on missions and training
Has scars on his arms from a training mishap
Is uncomfortable in formal clothing
Secretly enjoys taking long baths

An addition to egg anon's kitty!sage request please. I'm not sure I can communicate this right but time paradox consequences of that would be Sage's connection to MC changing? The context for their first(well second) meeting in tavern had changed. Sage may not remember every detail of the day he meet his adult self and the lovely person he was with but I don't think he'd ever forget. That day may have been like promise for the future.
Kitty!Sage Part 1
Kitty!Sage Part 2
GN!Reader, mentions of alcohol, self-worth struggles, I think I understand what you're getting at? If this isn't what you meant then let me know
----- ----- -----
What would you do if you knew the future?
Well. Okay. Sage doesn't really know the future. He knows a little part of it; one day he'll grow up to be big and strong and carry a sword around. He'll have a roof over his head. A warm bed. Food on the table.
And someone who loves him.
It's still weird to think about. Someone loves him. Will love him. He knows their name and their face and scent but he hasn't even met them yet, not really. But he will one day. He just has to be patient.
Gods, he hates being patient.
--°--
The memory fades as he gets older. He can't remember the exact shade of your eyes or the precise lilt in your voice. Not the way he used to, anyways. But in those quiet moments in the middle of the night, when Tulsi is curled into a snoring ball tucked against his side and he's wrapping the blanket tighter around them to fight off the biting wind, he thinks of you.
He misses you.
--°--
He's a teenager now. Between taking care of Tulsi and ripping up the streets with Balsam, he doesn't have much time to spend thinking about someone he's never even met. You're a comfort, still, but a distant one. An idea more than a person. A dream more than an idea. But even so, he doesn't want to lose you.
So he dreams.
--°--
Time buries your name. Alcohol blurs your face. As the once-missing flood the streets and the once-dead shamble back to some silent mockery of life, Sage forces himself to stop thinking about you. He takes the scraps of memory he still has and tucks them deep into a locked chest where the evil of the world cannot corrupt it. Cannot corrupt you.
It's the least your memory deserves, for giving him so many years of comfort.
__°__
You had loved him once. Or you would have, anyways. Maybe he was a better person in that timeline. Maybe he was big and strong and brave.
But now he's just a coward, too weak to stay and face the truth of what he's done. So he runs. As far and as fast as he can. Goes until no one recognizes his face and drinks until he forgets his own name.
He never forgets that it should have been him that died instead of Lucan.
He wonders if you would agree.
__°__
It's been five years since then. Sage tries not to remember his past too much. It always ends up leading to that night, and he sees that enough in his nightmares, thank you very much. Whatever time isn't spent fighting or fucking is used to go in and out of bars in pursuit of those two things.
Looks like tonight is a fight. The entire tavern has devolved into a brawl. The 'why' is irrelevant. It's the mind-numbing adrenaline that he's searching for.
Thunk!
An axe embeds itself in the wall, quivering in place. A cloaked figure ducks under it and scurries over to the bar with a sword leveled at their chest. Sticky-Fingered Syd is hot on their heels, cornering them against the counter. Bastard, going after someone who doesn't even have a weapon! So Sage steps in. Delivers a left hook that makes his knuckles sting in the best way. His tail flicks in excitement.
The cloaked stranger's hood falls down to their shoulders as they straighten up, panting softly to try and make up whatever air got knocked out of their lungs by fear. They look Sage up and down warily. Maybe trying to decide how much of a threat he is.
Sage blinks. His pupils narrow to feline slits. His tail goes still.
"... Do I know you?"

Part three(ish?) of Past Present and Future, Their consequences
Lou bolted awake, sweat soaking his face. Another nightmare, huh? The dream was the same as the other hundred times.
Metal on metal and yelling could be heard even from outside the room. Lou stands in front of a cell, in front of him is MC, chained to the wall with magical chains to prevent her escape. The chains limited her magic as well.
“I FUCKING HATE YOU! YOU BETTER HOPE IN THE NEXT LIFE I NEVER FIND YOU! I’LL KILL YOU I SWEAR!” MC continues to struggle against the chains as she spouted curses and profanities and threats of what she’ll do to Lou and everyone else in iritium the moment she got the chance. At the time he found it pitying, though the moment he left the room he felt a strange sensation. Sadness, despair, but most importantly, regret.
Why would he regret it though? Why does he feel so horrible about what he’s done? Questions circled his mind for a while. He only understood on the last day, the fated day, where the worlds became one again. Her last act of revenge. To make him remember.
Just before she died, MC managed to hit Lou with a beam that shoved back his memories of Vanum. His previous, unforgettable memories. And now he’s lost his Vane a second time.
He sometimes thought of letting whoever MC reincarnated into to just let her have her way with him once, or if, she remembered anything. To let her beat him up until he was barely alive, only to heal him and do it again. It was the least he could do. Even if he did try to redeem himself, she would hate him forever, no matter how guilty he felt.
Lou was able to do one last favor for MC even after her death. He protected all she loved, so at least she’ll have something to return back to when she remembers. He knew he had to right to be with her, not in a million lifetimes after what he just did.
Lou wonders how he would even try to stop what he started. Iritium took over most of the world, reigning and manipulating information as they see fit to make themselves look like the good guy. They’re already ready to use her again when she shows back up, knowing if they manipulate her enough, she’ll never get her memories back, and she’ll be theirs. They never found her though, after so many years. 25 years, long years.
When he saw her though, during the entrance exam, his heart almost sank. “They’ll find her.” He thought. “They probably know she’s here already.” And yet, they didn’t. No mention of her was brought up. They were all still searching for her. And so Lou thought of a plan. To keep her hidden. No one can know who she truly is, not even her. He’ll protect her to the best of his ability.
Even if it costs him his life.

Cadybear's Reviews- It Lives in the Woods
Welcome to the fourth official Cadybear's Reviews post! Today I'll be talking about It Lives in the Woods, which I have ranked on the "Diamond Tier" at 10 stars out of a possible 10.
Honestly, there’s not much to say that hasn’t been said already by everyone and their skeleton dog in the fandom. Just about everything in this one is well done. 
Choices that actually matter and have hard potential consequences. A wide cast of memorable characters. A strong and highly compelling story. A proactive and fairly flexible MC, with some pre-set backstory that’s actually established well. 
Although I consider OG HSS to be my favorite Choices series, I’d personally consider the It Lives series to be the best made Choices series. As in, the closest to being “perfect”. I’m having a hard time deciding whether ILITW or ILB is better, but I’ll save that for the ILB review and possibly an “ILITW vs ILB” post. 
Now I generally don’t care much for the horror genre, as most of it always seemed very cheap. But this story blew me away. I can definitely have respect for horror that is actually nuanced with its storytelling rather than just being cheap jumpscares, yet still being able to be bone-chilling… and ILITW is just that. I love the focus on psychological horror and how Mr. Red (or rather, Jane) plays directly on our characters’ fears, struggles, and insecurities. The CG in chapter 1 was terrifying, and it was enough to give me this lingering feeling of dread through the story. And there is payoff for it in Chapter 15, particularly if you get mostly Haunted nerve scores. 
Andy and Lucas are certainly some of my most favorite LIs of all time. It’s really hard to choose who I love more. I’d say I relate to Lucas more, but Andy had the strongest arc. Ava is pretty damn great too with her vibrant and witty personality. 
I also love the trans rep with Andy– he’s the only trans character in the cast, but he never felt like he was just a token. We see some of the challenges he faces as a short Asian trans male athlete, yet he also has a lot of personality outside of that too. In spite of what he goes through, it’s just normal in the narrative for Andy to be trans, and not sensationalized or pathologized. 
There’s barely anything to criticize here, which is why I consider it the Choices story that’s “closest to perfect”. Most of what I can think of are very minor nitpicky things. I’ll probably save it for the “ILITW vs ILB” post.

ok ok yk what though, I love takemichi so much because even if you look at the reader reception of mikey this last arc there has been so many people who have said Mikey is not worth the struggle for, that takemichi should give up, that mikey made his choices and no one else is worth losing saving him. That he either can't be saved, or doesn't deserve to considering the consequences and I love Takemichi because he just said fuck that all, and tried anyways and it takes a special kind of person to persevere like that especially in the face of such dangers and risks. Mikey does deserve to be saved and Takemichi cares to such an extent where his own life is definitely worth fucking up for for him and I just adore him for it. Mikey didn't choose to be the way he is, he deserves the help and Takemichi knows that and that's why his insistence feels like both a message in the manga and to the readers that even if anyone else switches up on him, our mc won't and i love him for it.
