Yu has alot of scars old and new from his recklessness, which makes Cas worry that one day Yu might do something that will break himself.
Which led to Cas absolutely glued to his hip, you can find them both like this usually.
Where Cas is, Yu is found. Where Yu is, Cas is found.

When I really think about it, it does come off as rather TERFy when people preach that it's bad to want more GOC stories because "this is one of the few video games where we play as female locked characters, let women have this one thing". Yeah when they say "women" you KNOW they only mean allo cis gender-conforming women, most likely white and straight too.
You're gonna root against male MC options for the sake of "muh few female locked MCs", but we all know damn well you're not gonna root for trans MC options or GNC appearance/romance options for the female-locked MCs. Or any other sort of variety in the options or portrayal of these female MCs that doesn't try to pander to Facebook Karen Moms.

There comes a point with new books consistently being genderlocked as women and having both male and female LI options that it starts to really look like Pixelberry thinks gay men are "icky". I know male MCs are played less often but come the frick on, Pixelberry, you've coded books with multiple MC genders and multiple species with unique powers before. At least TWICE!
It's absurd that a game with mostly pre-made assets and finished code can't handle adding a male option to a story when they've proven that they can handle multiple pronoun options and genders in the past.
Generally speaking, I do not enjoy playing as a woman in Pixelberry smutty stories because they make a lot of assumptions about the anatomy of my characters and go into details that throw me out of the scene and/or make me dysphoric.
If you won't let me mark my character as a trans woman, I can't play a self insert character, so at least let me play as a gay man and/or non-binary person more often.

I didn’t address this while I was live blogging, but I’m gonna be so pissed when MC inevitably ends up taking all the heat for hiding Nia’s problem… because they’ve been going out of their way to force us to keep it under wraps, so I just know that’s gonna happen. And then Nia will be all “don’t be mad guys, I asked MC not to tell”. So everyone will let up on us, but no one will hold Nia accountable or apologize for ripping us a new one about a secret that wasn’t ours to tell in the first place 😒

No because a lot of modern stories MCs are literally so bland. I know I've said this before but I absolutely adore MCs where you have actual Choices with them. ILS MCs where my decisions affect nerve scores which can affect their and their friends' fates. TH:M MC where I can mix and match with crewmate combinations and get different endings depending on how well they perform at it. OG HSS MC where I can choose their activity, and I can get different outcomes based on how good they are at their activity, how much school spirit they raise, how "loyal" they are to their team, how they treat the incoming Hearst kids, etc. LOA MC where I could build up different specific lawyer personas for them!
These MCs were flexible and wildcard! They had Choices that actually mattered!! I could make different versions of the same book's MC with all different choices for them and they'd feel like actually different characters from one another!!!
But with so many modern books, all the Choices we have are entirely cosmetic. They just feel like they wrote a story for a YA erotic romance novel, then slapped a couple of appearance and dialogue options onto it and called it a day.
