How susceptible are the Ro's to Mc making puppy dog eyes?
1 being the least susceptible and 10 being the most susceptible.
Hahaha I think all of them are at least a bit weak for the MC's puppy dog eyes tactics, but let's see...
Zodiac — 100 (knows what MC's doing, but is weak to stop it)
Archon — 7 (might act like it doesn't get to them, but they're lying)
Stardom — 4 (they turn the game around quite effectively)
Paladin — 6 (used to think they were immune to it until they met MC)
Wildcat — 3 (the king/queen of the puppy dog eyes themselves)
Ace — 1000 (every ounce of resolve crumbles instantly)
Mars — 2 (is immune to it, at least if the MC is not drunk)
Thank you for the question!! 🥰

hi hii!! how would the ROs feel abt the MC referring to them as part of their hoard? like not in a hyperpossesive typa way but like them also using "treasure" or "gem" as pet names <33
Sekh': I think they'd be the RO to feel most touched by this. They'd be flustered when MC says it out loud, but there is a careful longing in the way they behave afterwards. Leaning a bit towards MC, getting closer than they normally allow themselves to get to MC in public.
Because Sekh' only ever had their disgraced family name and nothing else. They don't belong anywhere, no one wants them, and they belong to no one because no one has wanted them as well - since now.
Cherena: Cherena preens and blushes and melts, almost in tears, if it's a day where their emotions are running a bit all over the place. Finally, they have something genuine. They aren't being used, like they are with their 'friends', they aren't being displayed like their grandparents do with them.
Cherena loves hearing MC call them part of the hoard, and they frequently daydream about being inside MC's hoard or nest with them, cocooned and happy.
Zaphia: Zaphia blinks, and they can hardly believe it at first. This is all they ever wanted. To be treasured so, and to be the most prized possession of their partner.
The though alone makes their body shudder and mind shake with soft delight. They look proud and properly content every time MC calls Zaphia that, especially in public.

What would you say are the main "themes" or "tropes" for every route? (poly routes too, if possible)
Arthur: arranged marriage (duh), extreme devotion (on both sides), destined love
Evaine: pining (mutual or one sided at first - by Evaine), healing from past relationships (Evaine), dealing with rumors (about Evaine, about MC, about both)
Yniol: slow burn, mutual protectiveness,
Morien: annoyances (affectionate) to lovers, strangers to lovers, recovery
Gwyar: forced proximity, confidant to lover, partners in crime
POLYS
Arthur/Gwyar: power dynamics (you know who has the most power - gwyar), power throuple
Arthur/Evaine: fluff and comfort, found family, gossip (both done by the poly, and done to the poly)
Yniol/Morien: healing from trauma, slow burn, taking care of each other, pining
Morien/Gwyar: 2 menaces and 1 cinnamon roll (roles are not fixed), heated arguments (with happy endings)

The nickname ask got me curious: What nick names would the love interests give Romanus (if they are inclined to give them)?
Hadrian likes love or, more recently, angel.
Alessa's go-to is darling one/ dearest one.
Alain likes to call you sparrow and, intimately, little pup.
Ysabella likes a bunch 😄. I feel like she'll call you everything under the sun — whatever she's feeling at the moment. But her most common ones are darling, used casually and beloved, whispered by your ear.
The Pirate King will call you peach. Depending on your temper, he may call you treasure or thunder. Alone, in your shared quarters, he calls you… other names.
Neia uses sweetling freely but, the more you spend time together, you realize she uses it less and less with other women. Deep in the romance, Neia calls you 'sun'.
Lance calls you mercenary — my mercenary, to you and only you. He'll call you many names in his songs, but one he likes to trace with his fingertips on your skin is Starlight.
Rafael… Rafael's pet names will range from idiot to freak to company dog. Over time, they start to sound less like insults and more like endearments. His 'idiot' sounds completely different when said to you than anyone else.
Once Rafael's defenses come down, and he admits to himself he likes you, Rafael calls you idiot still — but it's my idiot now. My love, my man/woman. Just as he's wholly yours.
Lieutenant Vallen will call you 'mine'.

talons: what possessed you to flirt with THE KING?
mc: you guys know i love shiny expensive things i shouldn't touch, this is very on brand actually
It's all just harmless flirting until all of the Talons have to attend your wedding and coronation.
Not so funny now, is it your majesty?

Okay loving all these reactions to the update but I feel like we're kind of glossing over MC being Tobin's bi/pan/definitely-not-straight awakening??? My MC would short circuit if Tobin ever let that tidbit slip (and I assume Deepal wouldn't let either of them hear the end of it lmao)
Also love the way the romantic/romance adjacent scenes in this update can REALLY act as foils to each other depending on how they play out -
-Tobin's not even allowing themself a kiss (without MC's intervention) because they're still feeling the long term consequences of what they realized too late were short term affections for Felix, and they're going to be around MC too often to risk that
VS
-G and MC potentially making out in public, consequences be damned (sorry Jordan) and stealing another kiss for good luck before bed, all the while doing all they can not to think too hard about long term feelings becaue the short term is all they have.
or
-Rayyan's stubbornness and (temporary) inability to meet MC half way eventually paving the way for communication and understanding, which helps the progression of their newly established partnership
VS
-Sam all but tripping over themselves to not even meet halfway but to go all the way to MC themself, only to hesitate communicating their feelings out of fear of damaging their long-established partnership
Maybe I'm reading too much into things but it's really neat regardless of how intentional it was or wasn't :)
I LOVE THIS! I think you captured each of the main emotional tensions / conflicts (especially for this chapter / this particular moment) in each of the RO routes.
For both CT:OS and merry crisis, I always deliberately try to craft ROs and RO routes that differ from each other and symbolize different things for MC (and for the ROs themselves) in terms of "what would getting into this relationship mean, for MC / the RO).
Echoing what you said:
G for me is starting off with a very quick, almost instinctive attraction / gravitation towards MC (and being completely shameless about pursuing it—ain't no time to waste) but subsequently grappling with what it means for that initial pull to turn into something deeper and more long-lasting. It's about doubting if one's short-term attraction is enough to sustain a relationships that needs to transcend time and space and separate 'worlds'.
Tobin's path is about healing after a messy relationship/breakup, and starting afresh, and putting their tendency to overthink what other people might feel / think and also start fighting for what they want; it's also about exploring something different, something new—and about putting some skin in the game, and allowing someone else to be their refuge for a change.
Rayyan's route is about learning to temper their natural fiery passion with some extent of calmness, or learning to think before they leap, and also about inviting another person into their inner, trusted circle (where they let their walls down). It's also about striking a balance between being rivals on the tennis court, and potential lovers outside it.
Sam's route is about the transition into lovers (from friends), and acknowledging (then being honest about) their feelings, it's about being willing to try (even if it might mean failure), and the courage to go for what we want in life; (but more simply, it's also about long distance and how tough that is)

How would you rank the ROs in terms of angst levels? 👀
Least to most:
Carmen - I give her a 3/10 for angst levels. She's amazing.
Nicholas/Nadine - 4/10 for angst, although most of the time it's like -1/10.
Sadie/Spencer - ranges from 5/10 to 7/10, depending on what you do. very sweet route, but yknow. forbidden love!
Roman - ranges from 7/10 to 9/10, again, depending on what you do. the angst starts wayy early into the story, before you even meet the others.

I dont know who to romance 😫 everyone is so amazing
Thank you💕💕💕💕😭 I hope I can help anon.
Romance Jade/Jean if you want to feel like you're repeating a past mistake, if you want to explore the depths of the person you thought loved you and who you thought you loved. If you want fiery debates, deep conversations, and very rare moments of vulnerability. J will hurt you, and they won't realize half of the time, and the few times they do notice, J won't act apologetic. At all. It's reconciling past and present in order to potentially rekindle the spark between J and you. Being in a romance with them, though, pays off. They're loyal, protective, worried about you, they want to be involved in your life.
Romance Uma if you want to mend an open wound, if you want to explore the meaning of loneliness, of art and creativity. Uma's relationship with you is built on a very strong emotional connection that has since been neglected and left to rot. Romancing Uma means regaining their trust, revisiting the meaning of friendship. Uma's calming presence serves as a safe haven for you, their route is marked by genuine support and acceptance, it's embracing the unexpected.
Romance Statler if you want delayed gratification. If you're willing to take the risk of everything going wrong in every possible way—if you want to make terrible decisions, too. If you manage to overcome the major obstacle that's their partner Noir, Statler's route is mature and grounded. It's about quite literally forcing Statler to enjoy life, to fight for their dreams, to discover what they truly want to do. Their romance goes beyond being an old unrequited high school crush.
Romance Wanda if you want a bold and passionate experience, an unanswered question of "what went wrong?" Wanda isn't about the baggage, she won't create needless drama—there's enough surrounding her life as it is—and she expects you to do the same. Her route is built on a mix of flirtatious charm and genuine affection, a relationship that is characterized by bold gestures, heartfelt confessions, and a sense of adventure. Wanda seems like the least angsty route, and if you believe that she's without worries and concerns, she has fooled you too.
Romance Kai if you want to meet your opposite in life. If you want the kind of experience that your entire family is going to disapprove of. If you want to discover the limits of physical attraction, if you want to blur all the lines and watch as someone with very noncommittal tendencies experiences a very intense chemistry with you. Kai's route is full of witty banter and surprises, it's about opening up and overcoming past mistakes and traumas in order to properly enjoy the present.
Romance Travis if you want a grueling experience with very little communication. If you want to feel truly and genuinely hated prior to the reconciliation. Unlike J, Travis knows he can potentially hurt you. He knows you well enough to know and remember all your weaknesses, he knows how to exploit them, and he won't hesitate to do so—Travis is hurt enough he feels justified in all he says and does. If you endure Travis (regardless of a positive or negative reaction), romancing him means peeling off all his layers, slowly meeting again your old best friend.
Romance J&Kai if you want to dive headfirst into a complex web of emotions and attraction, if you're prepared to juggle the enigmatic J and the intense Kai. Both J and Kai have their quirks and challenges, and navigating their romantic dynamic is no easy feat. They're driven individuals who often clash, attempt to tear each other apart, and who will try to drag you along with them. It's about reconciling differences, and exploring the depths of your connection with both of them.
Romance Uma&Travis is like looking into a mirror of a past could have been. It’s about mending old wounds, embracing the beauty of art, and rediscovering the meaning of friendship. Uma, with their calming presence, provides a safe haven for all three of you, fostering genuine support and acceptance. While Travis may initially resist, this route is about peeling back the layers of his defenses and finding the camaraderie that was once shared in your close friendship.

Funny ask
How would the ro's react if a high ranking official insults them and the mc just walked up to the official and knocked them out.
And when asked why the mc said " they were mean and that's bad and we punch bad people right?".
I love how totally clueless the MC is in this asks!! 🤣🤣
Archon — "Efficient and clean, but you are still rotating your hips too much when you swing." Archon's tone is clipped, but their ice blue eyes are soft when their arm grabs the MC by the hip.
Stardom — "Ha! The bastard deserved it. See, this is what you get when you mess with the big dogs. Thank you, handsome / beautiful." Stardom would dip the MC and give them a searing kiss.
Ace — "That's one way to take care of that problem. Still, we are going to have a talk when we get home, kid." Ace would still reward the MC with an affectionate pet on the head.
Paladin — "You defended me…" Paladin will be more speechless than troubled over the situation. Never before has someone done something like that for them.
Mars — "Well done, Darling. How about we finish the job, huh?" Mars wouldn't let the poor guy live much longer after that.
Wildcat — "Bebê! My brave knight in shining armor, thank you for protecting my virtue." Wildcat would basically swoon in the MC's arms.
Zodiac — "Habibi / Habibti, please. Next time, use your words instead of your fists, alright?" They would still give the MC a peck on the cheek as thanks for defending them.
Thank you for the question!! 🥰

Lmao seeing how the ROs are, I think it's my mc themselves that'll make the romancing difficult (bcs they're so emotionally turned off, have major trust issues, and physical contact with people he doesn't trust makes him feel vulnerable to a potential atk)
Yeah for one it's the ROs who, in some cases, will need to try to get closer to MC, and not the other way around. I love in the same way the trope of a MC who is from the beginning a very devoted/loyal person to a RO, but I equally like that happening after efforts on the ROs part
#i feel like often it's mc who has to do the most work in the beginning of the relationship#and they have to understand where the ro comes from while the other way around isn't expected#well anyway#your mc is gonna get softly romanced#mc#ros
