My sweet child…cliche dating sim…it grew so much in a week 😭 y’all are so good at this!!Now I have two ideas buttt not sure who should the story involve, so I’ll list them and then let’s talk about it!!:

1. You’re of the middle to low class, fame coming from the fact that your father was a well-known knight, strong enough to defeat 100 men. He suffers from a chronic illness but that doesn’t stop him from going off to war! You can’t stand the thought of him leaving, so what if you just…replace him? Nobody will notice! Just…try not falling in love on the way…

JAMIL, Jade, Jack, Azul (the tactician?)

2. Of love and tragedy, can two star-crossed lovers secretly stay together? Or will their families rip them apart? Nobody said falling for the enemy was easy…

Epel, ROOK, Riddle, Leona, Idia (for shits and giggles)

Yes both are inspired by Mulan, and Romeo and Juliet. Yes I’m basic. YES I know they sound like bios for some Wattpad fanfic back in 2012. Don’t judge me 😭

BONUS OMG I REALLY WANT ORTHO TO HAVE A BROTHER COMPLEX BUT. I CANT. THINK. Like do you know that game Yandere Simulator? Well one of the rivals is “senpai’s” little sister with a brother complex, absolutely hates all the randoms getting to close to him bc she wants his attention only on her. And I wanna apply that for Ortho except…less jealousy and more distrust? “Ortho has witnessed his brother being hurt before which turned him into a recluse, so he’s hesitant to accept the new maid getting close to Idia.” And maybe he sabotages a bunch and basically hazes her to see if she’s really willing to stay. But then what if a mystery illness plagues Idia and even the all-knowing wizard Ortho (bc it’s medieval remember so he can’t be a robot) doesn’t know what to do. But the stupid maid does?! And yeah after saving Idia’s life and having a sweet heart-to-heart, the maid pledges loyalty and Ortho treats them like a big sibling too??? Idkkk but he has to have his own route, not a subplot!

[referring to these Cliche! Royalty AU Otome Game: Diasomnia Ver. ; Ridde Rosehearts Ver. ; Ace Trappola, Epel Felmier, Azul Ashengrotto Ver. ]

Hello Otome Anonie 🌻🌺💕!

I hope you don’t mind me calling you that. ☺️💕 I didn’t realize it grew so much in a week, time literally went over my head. That’s what happens when you are having so much fun 🙌💚 and I have been loving the cliche! Royalty AU Otome Game series, so thank you so much for that anonie 💚💕

I see you’re going after my weakness spot with a Mulan inspired AU anon 👀👀 I think the one who would fit the most in this would be Jack. because jack likes to follow the rules and has his own version of honor and what is right and wrong. I can imagine him having eventually softening to you and both of you becoming comrades...and then the secret is out. It takes him time to change his way of thinking but he does and he has even greater respect for you. just like in canon, what do you think? Jamil, I feel like he would already know but would understand your reasonings and even help you out in your cover, cue hilarious shenanigans as you both try to keep that secret lol 😂

This one is hard....I feel like we can go so many routes. I feel like I wouldn't put it past rook or leona to just give that extra push to be with you...even if it means to say...take over your kingdom? 👀👀 all in the name of love right? and both of you get to be together. then you have riddle, he would have to go against his mother which is hard but also yours. but you too can always run away together too 👀👀 Idia cant get rid of you, you just keep popping up and then...you dont and he basically is too used to you now so he’s ready to take over and silence his and your family to be with you.

I have heard of wandered simulator but haven't played or seen it. but I do read yandere so I have an idea of what you mean 🤔 Finis in Code Realize had a sis complex too that I found cute. maybe during this route it would be seen from orthos point of view so we can see more on his side and what he thinks and why he does it. POV changes always give you that extra feel you know? Maid MC takes care of Idia because maybe the illness had less to do with magic and more on the physical route? like mind, body, and spiritual, and this disease first attacked the body which cascades to the other parts of the whole being? and MC basically goes back to the root and old fashioned healing which also changes the way ortho thinks of them.

Who is your newest OC? Why did you make them?

uuuuuuhhhhhh gee I think it was Drasko and Nulla??! Nabi/Nari came a liiittle bit earlier, so. I originally made these characters as a way to use my characterization of DMK and SK in an original story I'm making with Teeny.

if you want one NOT sourced from Kirby, then it's either CEO or these guys. CEO was made as an "amalgamation of favourite character tropes" character (the inspo page is at the start of his tag), and Those 4 Guys were made as suitors for a self indulgent dating sim. The dating sim guys were in development a long time before I drew them and posted the bios online which is why I'm not sure if they or CEO came first. I think it was CEO which would make them newer

What are your favourite relationships between your OCs? (romantic or platonic!)

i don't feel like making links for all these sowwyyy

Lad/Pidot, Lil/Pidot, Tro/Annie, Lad/Boss

What are some things that inspired your stories? Real events? Maybe a dream?

SBH was honest to god kind of inspired by the Cobra wrongpurae, and a little bit of Space Dandy, and just like a general desire to make a story with a cool lady main character :3

Haze was adapted from the final story in my planned 8 story Kirby fic series when I was 13, and has been further developed with the intention of channelling my old style of overly edgy but still cute and wholesome story/characters of the time

MW (which just stands for Mirror World, because i still don't really have a proper fucking name for this one) was designed around characters adapted from my Kirby Mirror World fan characters I made when I was 12. it's no longer anything close to "mirror/dark world" related and has been through a million revisions but it's probably about lesbians

Until They Die (rename pending? it doesn't suit certain aspects like it used to) is just like, a world to put all my horror creepypasta murder inspired shit with VR in. inspired by horror creepypasta murder shit. also, did you know VR is a like 20~ year old OC that ALSO started as a Kirby fan ch

This unnamed bug musical was inspired by a lot of Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, specifically this song, which I had imagined as the opening track lmao

everything else I can't think of specific inspiration sources

Situation (DH) Strelitzia's father walked out on her family when she was a little girl. She hasn't seen her father ever since. Since then her mother hasn't been the greatest role model & jumps from boyfriend to boyfriend. Because Strelitzia doesn't know what a healthy relationship looks like, she's afraid to fall in love & doesn't allow herself to get too close to anyone & begins to follow in her mother's footsteps by jumping from one sexual partner to the next.

UPDATE: Strelitzia finds out she is pregnant & goes to get an abortion. Before she gets the abortion, her mother calls her father & he shows up after not seeing Strelitzia or Lauriam for a decade. Strelitzia storms out of the house & refuses to speak to him. Ven then convinces Strelitzia to hear him out & maybe they can have a better relationship. She attempts to, but finds out her father has a whole other family & then swears she never wants anything to do with him again.

Situation (HU) In the 3 year time gap, Strelitzia starts to reflect on her past encounters & remembers her first kiss with a girl named Selena. She remembers actually feeling something for Selena & attempts to make contact with her, but no luck. Strelitzia then meets a girl in college named Kaylynn & Strelitzia decides to actually give dating a chance. Strelitzia's father still hasn't attempted to contact her, but someone else does. Strelitzia's mom also has a boyfriend & she thinks it's actually serious.

GENEVIEVE ALIU —

IG info/bio: @/genevealiu1 | 19k followers | currently on a journey as a junior doctor living in 🇦🇺🤎 | blm.card.co🖤 | sk💛

26 years of age

Born and raised in Glastonbury, England

Pisces sun? + libra moon?

Mother is Guyanese and works for a non-profit organization

Her father is Nigerian and works in property management

has one older brother who is a Prosthetist and resides in Nigeria with his pregnant fiancée

She can’t wait to be a auntie!!!

And a younger sister who is a medical laboratory technician

To say the least, their parents were happy that their children fell into the medical field. Based on their cultures it was a honor to have their children in these professions

Vieve grew up with a sassy demeanor and her parents have old videos on their camcorders to prove it lol, it never fails that the pair brings out the embarrassing vids during the holidays but vieve genuinely appreciates them

Although thanksgiving is a RACIST American thing, vieve never misses the opportunity to share what she’s thankful for in life and counts all of it as blessings! But it’s still fuck the pilgrims

Has held a friendsgiving before, loves any moment where she can host gatherings or attend them! either is quite fine. She loves being around people

the only time she likes to look back on the past is to see how she and her family carried themselves then and how the evolved into who they are now, it’s interesting to see

Loves “how it started vs how it’s going” posts and might have participated in a few

Always knew from a young age that she wanted to help people in some way, she was always doing something to help around the house and especially her aging/sickly grandparents

Felt offended that many people around school that she thought were her friends would stab her in the back labeling her as this “fake saint” since she rather spend her time volunteering instead of going to house parties in hs

Don’t get it twisted, she still went to those too & had her fun but definitely felt like it was the same routine and nothing ever felt fulfilling at these functions after awhile

Well known with all the cliques around school but had her own group of friends that fit into many of those cliques but she never felt obligated to stick to one social group. If you were nice and cool with her, she was the same to you, if you weren’t? Depending on her mood, she’d ignore you/say things under her breath or be “fake nice” as a form of being the bigger person

Has a curly hair routine that she consistently follows (after struggling to find the right products to make them flourish) and gets annoyed with if her curls don’t turn out the way she knows they can, it’s always frustrating when things don’t turn out the way you want them to but isn’t afraid to at least try

Three times is the charm! Is one of her mottos

loves bright colors, flowy attire, big hats, brimmed hats, bucket hats, berets, etc...

Has faced racism/prejudices and bullying growing up in public spaces—mostly school/uni & some of those same hatred actions online now that she’s dating seb

Because of that there were times where she felt insecure but deff grew to forgive, heal, and rise above the hate, she knows her worth

Has never been happier in a relationship than she is with seb, he’s her “moody long-haired, soft-hearted bby”

they’re both complete fools for each other and vieve is more vocal about her being in love/finding her soulmate whereas seb doesn’t mind showing it rather than speaking it—even tho he’s on a podcast but we mind our business okay?!

Seb is thinking of moving to Australia with vieve, he’s ready to risk it all for this woman, HIS woman 🤩

canon: gives more than she should/taken advantage of/not reciprocating in relationships... ex) how she dated a guy that she did everything for! especially financially and also struggled to find her worth but once she did? Her aura shined brighter than before— Ik chill out there Rocco

Also believes in loving yourself first to attract what you need in this world and found that in her career and seb. I hope they’re endgame! Since they’re the only couple I rooted for this season? Except for tai & ciaran maybe? They’re probably not endgame but whatever

They still get nervous/shy around each other even tho they’ve been together for months now + are in a long distance relationship which is too cute! I think since they’re in this for the long game they can look back on moments and still feel the way they felt in that moment. You know if you get the chance or have already heard elderly people talk about their relationships and how they get all starry eyed? That’s vieve & seb, that shit gets me right in my feels ew

Vieve’s love language is quality time, it’s what she shows and likes along with acts of service from her partner

Makes the best jollof rice & her fav dish is Metemgee

Trying to be on a plant-based diet only but will have her cheat days on occasion—mostly when she’s drunk and forgets her diet plan lmao that’s me getting double cheeseburgers or anything with dairy drunk af

now living in Australia, she tried to like vegemite but...the it’s a no for her, respectfully ofc! She never wants to disrespect anyone

besides the food, the atmosphere is much nicer since she feels like she’s on a holiday almost everyday and that there’s much more to see and do when she has the time

Loves the beaches and is thinking about surfing lessons

yes she enjoys those doctor shows and can agree that most scenarios are not the same as rl ofc but great question!

Since she’s a junior doctor now, and on her way to graduation! She feels so accomplished and having this chance to complete what she’s wanted her whole life in a different place, makes her super emotional

All those stressful all-nighters will be worth it. She mostly did it on her own but is nothing but humble and Is thankful to those that have helped her along the way, what kind of person would she be if she didn’t mention them?

and when COVID hit, she was one of many already on the frontlines. Her studies became altered but this wouldn’t stop her for her mission on this earth, this was her purpose and she knew we would conquer it all—but definitely has empathy and gets angry with how it’s being handled from time to time

She’s been exposed to it first hand which aboustely worries her parents, seb, her friends, and friends from the villa

Keeps up to date when all medical news, has a whole app dedicated to health

Learning French with some of her free time and is doing well at it

It was only natural for her to become closer to elladine since their men are homies and have a podcast together

They’ve hung out a few times on a double dates before the boat vacation & once just as girls before vieve left to Australia

Vieve is always offering advice but knows that every relationship is different and what works for her and seb won’t work for elladine and Nicky, she loves them together and knows everyone has bumps in the road

feels there’s some sort of tension between her and Harry now? Which she found a little off putting since they were supposed to be friends but she realizes that Harry has a condition but it’s also not an excuse for him to treat her shitty sometimes which he does and feels like it comes out of nowhere most times but he always apologizes yet vieve is slowly getting tired of this unhealthy habits

So they’re talking less these days, which he notices!

She wants Harry to find his happiness too! If he hasn’t found it in mc first that is

has met Tim— he’s a great laugh and seems like a nice guy—they follow each other, talia and jake in person when she was out with seb—they were also super nice and congratulated them on their win, she went up to miles once on a night out—he’s still a arsehole, priya reached out to her via dm about her new boutique that she wanted her to model in someday, Hope was just as stunning in person along with Siobhan, Chelsea & mc s2 were also kind, and a couple of the guys also wished her and seb well

She’s also noticed some of the shit talking coming from Elisa, Allegra, Lucy, and mc s1 (subtle shade from mc, basically about how vieve reacted if mc decided to give Harry a go but that was only brought to her attention thru fans) online but again, vieve peeped it and felt majority of it didn’t require a response. She was too happy in life rn and she had a man and they don’t

Plans to get a komondor, thinks they’re super cute! — seb does not “if you love me, you’ll love our child.” “It’s a bloody mop dog! And I’m a cat dad, you know that!” “Don’t talk about him like that, he’s got feelings just like your cat babies!”

I feel like she’s a matcha & Frappuccino lover, tries to keep her drinks simple and feels guilty when she has to make adjustments but the heart wants what it wants

Mini Countryman owner, she also drives like a “granny” better safe than sorry! She hates fast drivers, there’s absolutely no need for it!

Minimal makeup: eyeshadow, moisturizer, & a nude lip and she’s good to go

Secretly obsessed with among us, second life, and SIMS!!!

Celeb crushes? Heath ledger, Tyler posey, KENDRICK SAMPSON, Jordan fisher, Algee smith, Donald Glover, Mack Wilds, Khleo Thomas, Robert Ri’chard, Tahj Mowry, & Hasan Minhaj

Listens to: DaniLeigh, ABIR, Mary J. Blige, TORI KELLY, Us the duo, 11:11, Jacob Latimore, fifth harmony, joya mooi, & Greentea Peng, etc...

Anthem: The Cheetah Girls — Cinderella

Hi I just wanted to say you're one of my fav blogs.... I love reading your posts and they fuel my love for this game!! Anyway--I'm actually here to ask if you have any favorite headcanon about Tank or tank/Johnny because I'm always interested in that 😳

awww thanks! as for favorite headcanons, uhh... hmmm. i have different headcanons based on the different games they appear in together so i’ll uh, categorize those i guess (also warning: long. i am very dramatic and thus am prone to waxing poetic about how i perceive a relationship)

sims 2 pc - tank is just a repressed gay with no idea how to cope with it because of ... you know... everything. he can’t recognize his feelings, he doesn’t know how to cope with them, and he’s so frustrated by everything all of the time because of the kind of home he’s grown up in that all the wires are being crossed, and he’s kind of an asshole to people who don’t deserve it because of that. in theory he really, really likes johnny... johnny’s nice, he’s handsome, and likable... but that’s also why he really, really dislikes him and is supremely jealous... he isn’t in a place where he can realize anything positive he feels. tank doesn’t get why his pulse speeds up or his face flushes when johnny’s around, he doesn’t know why he craves his attention - for anyone else it should be obvious, but for him there’s just too much going on. but he knows when he sees johnny surrounded by people who like him, he wishes that he were johnny, and he knows he’s an alien ... tank knows what to do with that.

in theory johnny could have really, really liked tank too - he’s fit, athletic, he can be witty and goofy and creative - but... johnny doesn’t get to see the part of tank worth liking. the parts that he would like, that he likes in others already. tank won’t show him. tank can’t afford to be vulnerable! so because of tank’s issues, he causes issues for johnny and johnny only sees the tank who is kind of a jealous repressed loner. and he’s already friends with ripp through ophelia so he’d already be aware of how tank isn’t exactly brother of the year as golden child to ripps scapegoat. and with no way of figuring out that the way tank’s treated isnt actually any better, johnny’s a bit biased. but johnny’s bio says he dreams of being a hero on a white horse, so i always kind of interpreted that as something of a hero complex - so i imagine he’d soften quickly if he had any idea the full extent of whats going on.

oh, weirdly, that segues into -

sims 2 psp - not a very romantic headcanon - more about coping with circumstance - but theyre both victims of abuse from buzz and johnny knows it.

but so is ripp. so they’re not close, because johnny can see how the brothers are pitted against each other and he doesn’t like it... but johnny understands tank now, he understands why he’s like that, and he can’t really bring himself to be angry with him or blame him, even when tank is preventing his escape. he still has a hero complex. he sees the way tank has been hurt. he sees the way ripp is hurt, too. but he just can’t be mad. the fact he’s held captive by buzz isn’t the only reason why he hates him so vehemently, so passionately. he hates that he can see a father treat his sons so callously, so cruelly, and can’t do anything about it.

not that he’d put up with tank’s bs... but just sometimes trying to reach out, trying to talk sense into him. and maybe, because the nicest guy he knows is making some good points, maybe tank has doubts. maybe he questions buzz. johnny is very convincing. it’s not his fault!

basically im a sucker for the hurt/comfort of johnny’s kindness and his bluntness and courage helping tank realize that none of whats going on is right, or good.

sims 2 ds/gba - i believe in ds/gba era tank/johnny supremacy, first and foremost - it’s always good! but there’s just something so nice and comforting about it in ds/gba... from their perspective, things are so different and yet also so similar... and there’s a certain kind of comfort with each other in seeing how different they’ve become, but how familiar they are. how they’ve grown and improved, and forged a healthy friendship and connection... and they know each other better than anyone else in town at that point - everyone is either dead, or left town.

and the idea that tank just regularly comes into the pawn shop just to see johnny because he’s grown up and he knows how to follow his heart now... and johnny really is all he wants. maybe all he’s ever wanted, really. and johnny likes that. happiness is a good look on tank, and he likes seeing tank. you ever notice how johnny sells lotto tickets with tank’s face on them? i like to think he designed them himself, because he ... you know, likes tank. likes to see him.

when johnny’s not busy at the pawn shop, when tank’s not busy running the medical center he lives in... i imagine theyre supremely cheesy together. i mean, tank totally goes out of his way to help johnny around the pawnshop. i’ve always personally viewed johnny as supernaturally strong without trying, but i mean... us legbets just loooove to watch objects of our affection lifting things, and i can totally imagine tank just casually lifting things to impress johnny. he’s a bit humble but he likes attention from johnny, always has. and yeah, johnny can outbench him, but he enjoys the view.

and i KNOWwww that tank primarily lives in his dumb little medical center bunker he’s running, but i like to imagine that johnny has an apartment above the pawn shop (um, in the ds version anyways, it doesnt seem like the gba version has one but ... you know tank does spend a lot of time with a telescope up there sooo) and they live together, with a cat. its a very nice, domestic life that they’ve worked hard to manage with each other, and they’ve earned it

sims 4 - they’re gallery sims with no relationship or connection with each other but it’s an alternate timeline so i like to take advantage of the fact :)

you know everything i wrote about tank having a crush on johnny he had no idea how to deal with? i love the idea that it’s the reverse in sims 4 timeline. tank in every other appearance he’s had has been so... insecure, reserved. but tank in sims 4 is confident! outgoing! athletic! ... johnny doesn’t stand a chance. he’s just a useless bisexual and he thinks tank is really cute and doesn’t know what to do about it... but how convenient for him, tank doesn’t have the same problems that really stood in the way of a relationship that he had in sims 2.

lyla’s ghost being around to shape the household post-mortem has definitely had positive effects on the family - the grunt siblings have better relationships with each other, they have their mother to guide them and intervene if buzz is ever unfair to them, and to question his authority...

tank knows johnny likes him, in this timeline, and he’s a bit smug about it. but its ok! he kind of likes the scrawny green kid too. so what if he shows off a little more lately to get his attention? so what if he gets a little close in the hallways at school? whats a little kissing between homies?

So we've heard a bunch of sexual stuff so now a bit for the nitty gritty: what things make you happy, besides the unconditional love of your bf of course?

Aw this is cute 💖 I actually have a lot of little things now, things I never thought I’d have because my life is so different than when I was at my worst.

-this one Chinese place where Brendan grew up that has the absolute best vegan options. I literally go crazy for them haha

-my sketchbooks, I go through them all once in a while and I have about 7 now!

-picture of me and my adopted mom on my desk

-our new couch, it’s green velvet and we love it

-pretty much everything in our apartment. No room is really complete yet but we’re slowly filling it up

-my bio dad and family on his side. Now that he’s in my life I feel a lot better about my family. I understand where I get certain traits, physically and emotionally. And having pride in my Puerto Rican heritage is new and interesting to me! we’re all planning a trip to Puerto Rico once quarantine is done and more people are vaccinated

-Taylor Swift, Hozier, Bleachers, Lorde, all some of my favorite musicians I listen to daily. My whole Spotify makes me happy tbh. I make playlists for like everything

-Diet Pepsi. Favorite drink, obsessed and I will never not love going through a drive through and getting one, I think it’s just a childhood thing haha

-Harley Quinn, love the character and collect soooo much harley stuff, it’s slowly filling our office haha.

-snow globes! It’s dorky but I collect snow globes, one day I want to go to the first snow globe store that is being run by the family of the man who invented snow globes ☺️

-clothes, I love expressing my style because I grew up so afraid to. I wore what I thought looked cool (although poorly so I didn’t haha) and not what I liked. I used to have such cute outfits, like this vintage suspended pink striped skirt from the 70s that my great grandma made. But I was too scared to wear it to school, I just wore it at our house.

-I mean Sparty of course but that’s a given, like Brendan is 💖

-video games! My favorites are, Animal crossing, Stardew Valley, Deep Rock Galactic, Skyrim, the Sims, Beholder, lots of random indie games, Etc. I just started Stardew and made my farm cute so I’m happy about that!

-whiskey. Maybe that’s bad but I love good whiskey and a cigar once in a while. Brendan’s dad started it, now we all sit on the porch and smoke and drink together. He’s seriously a great person, I love Brendan’s family.

-movies, I watch soooo many movies. I can’t keep track of all my favorites because there’s so many at this point. Studio Ghibli ones are my go-tos for whatever mood I’m in. I’ve also watched Into the Spiderverse well over 30 times now, I just love the animation, story, and music so much.

-speaking of which, comic books. I read a lot, books in general but also a ton of comic books. Junji Ito, marvel, and DC are my favs but i do occasionally find some online I enjoy too.

-my siblings. I have 11 siblings and I’m close with all but one really. They mean a lot to me and I invite them over when I can but quarantine has been hard so we all have to wait to be vaccinated for them to be able to hang out indoors really.

-I know you mentioned Brendan but I have to really mention him myself. Our first place just to us and hes wonderful. He puts up with all my stupid shit, irrational jealousy and sadness, he just makes it all go away. He encourages me in therapy and helps me eat and he doesn’t expect anything in return. I do give him everything, my whole world. I spoil him endlessly in every way haha. We’ve really changed each other for the better. I met him a few days after my suicide attempt. I was giving up on dating for a while but fuck if I didn’t ignore that entirely when I saw him. I told everyone I was going to talk to him, and he came up first and I asked if he wanted to listen to some music with me and he agreed. It’s our favorite album to listen together now. We’ve been best friends since. I run around the house pantsless and dancing and chasing Sparty and trying to make him laugh in embarrassing and goofy ways and he just smiles and I feel great. Sorry for the rant, but I’ve realized that although I’m struggling with my ED, I genuinely have so much to be happy for and I’m so grateful.

Cohabitation

TMA fic inspired by real events. Statement of Quinn Morgan regarding their imaginary roommate.

on AO3

Statement of Quinn Morgan regarding their imaginary roommate. Original statement given September 13, 2012. Audio recording by Jonathan Sims, Head Archivist of the Magnus Institute, London.

Statement begins.

It all started as something of a joke, really. I’d call it an inside joke, but can you really call it that when you’re the only one in on it? I never thought it’d get so out of hand but, well, here we are.

See, my freshman year in college--university, I guess you’d call it?--my original roommate moved out to room with one of her friends instead. Not a big loss, really, she was always up later than me and was way more into the party scene than I’d ever be. Anyway, housing said they’d replace her, but spring semester came and went without me getting a roommate, which was fine by me. I liked the peace and quiet, liked having the extra space to myself, liked being able to come and go as I pleased.

Sophomore year, though, I knew that would all change. I hadn’t made much in the way of friends in my freshman year, and those I had made were generally male, which. Well. My own gender is more complex than checking off one of the usual two boxes, but to be fair to housing even I hadn’t realized that bit yet. Suffice it to say rooming with any of my guy friends simply wasn’t an option, at least not then and there.

So I went in for a random roommate. Housing said they’d paired me with someone, but didn’t pass along any details besides a phone number that gave me an error message when I tried calling it. Wasn’t sure what to expect when I got back on campus. Honestly, I was kind of scared they’d paired me with some weirdo, even though I suppose by that logic, I’d be “some weirdo” as well.

Whatever I was expecting, though, it wasn’t for move-in day to come and go without my roommate arriving.

I spent a couple days wondering if they’d just missed move-in day somehow, if they’d show up with no notice and start moving things in, but after a week I was starting to doubt that my roommate was ever going to show. I sent housing a vaguely-worded email asking about my roommate, but when they responded asking if there was a problem, I... I didn’t respond. I should have told them the truth of the situation, I suppose, but I figured what they didn’t know wouldn’t hurt them, and I’d enjoy what time I could with the room all to myself.

They stuck a little white-board outside the door of each dorm room for people to write their names, an easy way to introduce yourself to your neighbors, I guess. So I put my name on there--well, my deadname, since I was still using it at the time. And then after a bit of thought, I added the name Heather. I’d never known anyone named Heather, but I’d always thought it was a pretty name, maybe something I’d name a baby girl somewhere down the road. It was a normal enough name, too, one that wouldn’t raise eyebrows or get people asking too many questions. And this way, people passing by my dorm room wouldn’t know that I’d managed to nab a room by myself. Just me and Heather, two ordinary roommates in an ordinary dorm room, nothing to see there, definitely no great conspiracy to be unearthed.

Maybe if I’d stopped there, that’d be all it ever was, just a name on a sign that helped me fool housing into not forcing another roommate on me. But that was just the start of it.

See, I’d always fancied myself a bit of a writer, even though classes freshman year taught me well enough that while I enjoyed it at my own pace, it wasn’t something I’d want to major in, let alone get a career doing. So now that my supposed roommate had a name, I started thinking of her like just another character in one of my stories.

I gave her a full name, one generic enough that it could be the name of someone going to school here--Heather Anne Johnson, I settled on. I decided she’d transferred from another local school, one that some people joked didn’t exist because nobody ever met anyone from there despite them being one town over, though the real explanation was probably just that school being super small compared to us and a lot more religious to boot.

And then I went and made a Facebook profile for her, partly to flesh her out a bit and give me a place to put all these ideas for her I’d come up with, partly so if housing did come snooping around she’d seem more like a real student. The profile picture was a photo of a lilac bush I found on Google, I had “Heather” join the school page and a few others, she even shared a few memes I came across. If you did some research I’m sure you would’ve figured out that her life story only existed through that Facebook page, but at a glance I thought it’d seemed believable enough.

Apparently I was right about that bit, because when I checked on it a week later it had a few friend requests from actual students at my school. I think one of them shared a bio class with me, but I didn’t know any of them super well. I accepted all the requests, though, figured that’d just make the page seem that much more real. I updated it every couple days, too--not on any kind of a schedule, just when I was bored, which was pretty common.

I wasn’t the most social person... I’m still not, I suppose. But when it happened to come up in conversation, I’d tell whoever was asking that I had a roommate, maybe share her name and a few other tidbits about her (I’d decided she had brown hair, was kind of a neat freak, and was majoring in philosophy) if it seemed necessary. It’d all fall apart if anyone visited my dorm room--I hadn’t gone so far as to actually set up the other bed in the room or give “Heather” a separate living space--but nobody ever did. And housing never bothered me again after they responded to that one email of mine, so on that end, it worked just fine, I guess. Nobody suspected that I’d managed to get a room all to myself.

Heather kept getting friend requests from both people I knew and people I didn’t, as I’d post fairly generic status updates and share posts from other students, and at one point I realized my nonexistent roommate had more friends who went to school with me than I did, which... it’s sad, definitely, but I’m not sure whether it says more about how persuasive I was or how little of a social life I had. Probably a little of both.

Then one of my handful of friends from freshman year, Tyson Hunter, asked me about her, a couple weeks after I’d accepted his friend request on her profile. Said Heather had looked sad the last time he’d seen her, and he wanted to make sure she was doing okay.

Now, the one thing I’d never done is posted an actual picture of what Heather was supposed to look like. I’d replaced that lilac bush profile picture with a few other things--rainbows, cartoons, waterfalls, other flowers--but never any of an actual person. I knew I was crossing some lines here, but I wasn’t catfishing anyone at least. So there was no way Tyson could’ve seen what Heather looked like, because she didn’t look like anything, besides the vague descriptions I’d give whenever anyone asked.

Maybe I should’ve told the truth then. Tyson’s a good guy--a smart-ass sometimes, sure, but a nice enough person--and I doubt he’d have ratted me out to housing if I’d just come clean then and there. But now that it came up, I felt kind of weird about having not let him know in the first place, and I didn’t want to just up and confess.

So instead, I just asked some questions, trying not to seem as confused as I really was. What did he mean, “the last time he’d seen her”? When was that? Where was that?

And Tyson said he’d seen her in the halls of the philosophy building the day before, and she kept looking down at the floor and biting her lip, and she looked like she was trying to hold back tears.

I changed the subject after that, because... because it was weird, and because obviously he’d just bumped into some random student who happened to resemble how I’d described Heather and assumed it was her. Which was awkward, given the reality of the situation, and meant that some random brunette had been near tears yesterday, but even if I’d wanted to track down this supposedly-Heather, it’s a big school, that’d take forever. So I tried to just move on and forget about that.

A couple days later another friend of mine, Jack Murphy, said that that roommate of mine, Heather, was, and I quote, “a total hottie”, and was she single, because if so he was interested.

I blurted out that sure, she was single, before actually thinking through my response. I assumed Jack must have mistaken some other student for Heather like Tyson did, and asked where he’d seen her?

Jack’s answer wasn’t as clear as Tyson’s had been. He just said he’d seen her “around” a bunch of times, and that she was cute, that he liked her freckles and her dimples and the way her glasses framed her deep brown eyes. Which... I had decided she had brown eyes, actually, but I was pretty sure I hadn’t mentioned that to anyone because who just casually brings up their roommate’s eye color in a conversation?

So one of my friends was drooling over a girl that he thought was the roommate I didn’t actually have. Great.

I think it was when Jack asked if I could set him up with Heather that I realized I was in way too deep.

I told him I’d talk to her about it, but no promises, and then I went to my dorm room and saw the bare bed next to mine and just... just burst out laughing, because all this was ridiculous, really.

This was all during finals week, by the way, which... probably didn’t help my test scores any, but it did mean winter break was right around the corner, so I just stalled Jack until then, figured I could figure out what to tell him about my roommate that didn’t exist over the break.

That winter break was... intense. It’s when I realized I was nonbinary, for one thing, and when my parents sprung on me that they were getting a divorce, for another. So I didn’t have that much time to think about the whole Heather thing. But the couple of times I checked her Facebook profile, a few people had sent messages about sharing classes with Heather--one from some upper-level philosophy class, one from contemporary world history, and two from intro to psych. All things that were probably the sort of classes she’d take if, you know, she took classes at all.

I ignored the messages, and when winter break was up and I met up with Jack again, I told him I hadn’t had time to talk things over with Heather yet, which, well, technically not a lie, right? Jack gave me a folded-up piece of paper and said to pass it along to Heather, let him know what her reaction was.

I just... I just nodded and went along with it. I didn’t look at the thing. I was sure it was a confession of love, or bad love poetry, or something else of the sort, and I really didn’t want to read any of that. I just tucked the piece of paper into my pocket, and when I got back to my dorm room that night, I chucked it onto the bare, empty bed that would be Heather’s if she existed, before going to sleep.

The next day, after going to classes and eating dinner with Tyson, I noticed that the piece of paper wasn’t where I’d thrown it on the empty bed anymore. After a bit of searching, I found that it hadn’t just fallen off, but had somehow ended up in my garbage bin. I opened it, then, and from what I could make out it was exactly the sort of thing I’d expected, a nicely-worded letter asking one Heather Johnson on a date, but what stood out most was the big X drawn to cover nearly the entire page in what looked like red Sharpie.

All of that’s weird, of course, but the part that stuck out to me was that I didn’t even own a red Sharpie, or a red marker for that matter, just a single black Sharpie and a lot of pens and pencils. I figured the rest could be chalked up to- to sleepwalking, or some sort of mental break, or something, but there was no way I could’ve put that big red X on there.

Things kept getting weirder from there, but from the end of January on it, it kind of starts to blur together in my mind. The Facebook account I’d made for Heather started having friends I didn’t remember adding, even a few that weren’t students at the school I went to. Jack came to me red-faced one evening saying that he’d asked Heather about the note he’d written for her and she’d laughed in his face, and it’d been right in front of the cafeteria so half the school saw. Tyson kept asking me questions about Heather’s new boyfriend. Heather’s Facebook account suddenly said that she had a new boyfriend, which I certainly hadn’t put there. (Aaron, I think his name was? Aaron Masters, maybe? I, I didn’t look into it that closely. Think I was a bit scared to look too close, honestly.) I got a noise complaint from a night I hadn’t even been in my room, since I’d pulled an all-nighter in the library just before a big midterm. My parents asked questions about that nice girl they heard in the background of all my phone calls. I kept finding garbage in my bin that I was sure wasn’t mine, like- like a bag of salt and vinegar chips, when I hate those...

Eventually I just broke down. Jack asked me something about Heather--I don’t even remember what he asked now--and I just snapped at him that Heather wasn’t real, I didn’t have a roommate, I made her up and I didn’t get why everybody was just going along with it so much, so stop asking about my imaginary roommate already!

He’d stared at me for a long minute before just shaking his head and saying that it wasn’t funny, that I could do a lot better than that if I was trying to mess with his head.

I hadn’t even realized it was April Fools’ Day.

I snapped at Tyson the day after, though, and then my parents later that evening, and I think that’s when everybody realized it wasn’t just a joke or a prank or whatever, that something was seriously wrong.

The rest of April was... well. I got pulled out of school, thrown in a psych ward for a bit, and then forced into a lot of therapy when I got home. Because everybody thinks I’m the crazy one here, everybody thinks Heather’s real and I’m the weird one for thinking she’s not. But I swear I’m sane! I mean, I got diagnosed with ADD as a kid, and I’ve kind of suspected I might have some kind of social anxiety for a while now, but nothing where I’d have any sort of break with reality like that.

Heather Anne Johnson was a name I assigned to a roommate I didn’t have. She never existed. Except- except everybody thinks she did, now. Everybody except me, anyway.

I’m taking what I’m calling a gap year, though I think usually that’s for when you do it before college, not right in the middle, but it sounds nice at least. Told my parents I thought backpacking across Europe would be good for me, help me get back in touch with the world around me. And some of that was true, but really I just wanted to put as many miles between me and my old school, between me and Heather, as I could.

I’ve been trying to avoid information about her now, but in the middle of June I tried logging into her old Facebook profile, just for shits and giggles, and I couldn’t. The password I’d used for the account for all those months didn’t work anymore. And my computer had saved it, so I wasn’t just typing it in wrong, either.

And around the end of August I checked her profile, thinking about how it’d been almost a year since Heather first came to be and how much had changed since then, and I saw Heather had posted a status just a few days before saying that she was excited to start her junior year of school and meet her new roommate.

I don’t know what good telling you my story will do. You probably won’t believe it any more than the therapists and psychiatrists all did. But I want it on record somewhere, anyway. Because I keep thinking about that latest status update. Keep thinking that whoever Heather’s new roommate is, they’re in for one hell of a time, if they exist any more than she does.

Keep thinking maybe things could have gone even worse for me than they did, in the end.

I think however this gap year of mine ends, it won’t be with me going back to school there. The last thing I want is to hear about someone else’s run-ins with the roommate I invented.

Statement ends.

The Sims 2 Questions 💚 16, 19, and 25?

16. Who amongst the premades and within the orignal plot deserved better?

Maybe Ajay Loner? I know, I know, he comes in the family bin. But his bio; he likes counting grains of sand?! He is probably the most popular sim in strangetown at the moment.

Also, Olive Specter. Why make her all dark and macabre? I like the idea that she represents life - her garden flourishes, and yet she fell in love with death. It's sweet. Perhaps some of the deaths were not carried out by her - maybe death himself saw his sweet love Olive at the alter, and was so filled with a sudden jealous rage, he killed her potential lovers. Maybe Olive wishes that she could walk the immortal bounds between life and death, forever with her one true love, which is why she sacrifices lives of those that enter into her realm unbidden, in the hope of supernatural immortality that will allow her to walk freely between this plain and the next.

I dunno. Either way, I think hers is a love story, and the macabre, dour lot that she's stuck in, is an injustice!

19. Favourite male and femal townie and favourite NPC?

Goopy Gilscarbo, the one, the only. In fact, I made a secret about the Goopster many years ago, referencing mine and my friends favourite film at the time, Mean Girls. (Oh my god I'm so old.)

Good god I was just thinking how many years ago this was. It must have been over ten years ago. Maybe 2010?! (There are a couple of other secrets that I posted. Maybe I'll see if I can dig those out too. Who doesn't want a bit of cringe and shitposting?)

My other favourite townie.... maybe Crystal Vu? Her and Lazlo, oh my goodness, they are so dysfunctional. I love them. In my game she changes her name to Krystahl, and opens a touristy shop for all those visiting Strangetown (to try and get a glimpse of the famous UFO's that have crashed in area 61). Krystahl and Lazlo are very on again off again, and she also has a crush on Vidcund.

Favourite NPC? It's got to be the Unsavory Charleton. I think he's an awesome addition to the game. The animation, the little bop on the nose? Fabulous. The voice? Amazing. And oh my goodness that sexy moustache.

25. Favourite expansion pack?

Seasons. I think Seasons adds so much! The gardening, the weather, the seasons... I think it adds so much to the game. It makes time pass nicely, without the same day being the same, day after day. And oh my goodness, the weather channel?! That still makes me laugh out loud! And, back in the day, I loved the hairs that came with Seasons - the little bob with the half up pony tail? And the cute hats? Amazing!

On a side note, my favourite stuff pack is the IKEA pack. I love IKEA. Most of my actual furniture is from IKEA. And I love walking through IKEA with my husband and saying, "Oh look! My sims have that!" He finds it funny.

Thank you so much @hemfbg for asking me this! I really enjoyed answering 😊 Have a lovely weekend!

Which premade households are the least inspiring/favourite etc to you? Which are the most? And why? :) If you want, you could go hood by hood. And 2nd - what is the LTW of Oberon in your Pleasantview Plus - I just don't know, what suits him

Ooooh, I love asks like this, thank you!

In Pleasantview, it's gotta be the Brokes for me. I just find them so fun to play, especially since they're one of the more challenging households? Love the Calientes and the Pleasants, too. And least inspiring would be the Oldies I guess, partly because they're elders but party they just don't have much connecting them to the neighbourhood story, yknow?

In Strangetown I think my favourite is the Specter household, it's just so iconic with so much story potential!! I also really enjoy the Singles. Least favourite/inspiring I guess would be the Loner household, for obvious reasons I guess. But I also struggle with the Beakers, the whoile scenario with Nervous is one I find difficult to actually play out in regualr gamepaly and storywise it feels too dark for me sometimes? idk

As for Veronaville, gosh, I really like all of the households actually, but I think maybe my favourite is the main branch of the Capps, just for all the teen drama potential (plus I love Consort!). As for least favourite... maybe Bianca Monty? Or maybe the Kent-Regan-Cornwall Capp house? I never know what to do with those ones, I prefer having Kent be gay but I can never find a sim I actually like as a match for him, and I have similar problems with finding things for Bianca Monty to do. Maybe in a future playthough I'd give her a business or something. I struggle with the Summerdreams a little too, I can never figure out where to fit them in with everything...

Riverblossom Hills my favourite household is the O'Mackeys, lots of story potential there, and I love all their faces and find them all likable! Least favourite would be the Greenmans, the novelty of plantsims are cool and all but idk, again, I can never think of anything for them to do...

Then in Desiderata Valley I think my favourite is Natasha Una, and least favourite is, hm, maybe the Bells or Jocques? None of the Desiderata families are super interesting, but I've spent enough time trying to think up more spicy headcanons/takes on them that they all inspire me at least a little!

In Belladonna Cove I think my favourite household is the DeBateaus, I just find the single dad adopting a kid thing cute, I like the "millionaire business tycoon is actually a softie family man" vibe... there are a lot of families in Belladonna that I've never really played though, the Patels, Clevelands, Baldwins & the Cordials all kinda bore me. But then again I've never really played much with them, so I could probably change my mind.

Anyway, Oberon's LTW in Pleasantview Plus is Become Professional Party Guest - just since his bio mentioned he'd been busy trying to "master" his job. I like the idea of the faries being immortal, so I imagine they dabble for a while in a thing before perfecting it and eventually moving on to some new hobby a few decades down the line.

OC Review: Keith Gatti

Review by: Mod Charle

(continuing with the dating sim idea, although lookin it closely it fits better for a reverse harem… here’s the first dateable guy) human name: Keith Gatti

It does seem more like a reverse harem series than a dating sim. However, it is possible to make this into a dating sim by changing the backstories of each alien to have them appear around the same time.

real name: unknown,due to his language being incompatible with human languages

I do wonder, if this is the case, when in human form, is Keith able to communicate with Ida and others?

biological age: around 26-27 years old Height: 1.65 meters- somewhat taller (has two personas, but essentiallty they are the same)

If they are the same persona, I don’t feel the need to keep “two personas” in his bio. If they are the same, it is one persona.

Weight: HEAVY Body build: skinny/muscular

If he is very heavy, I would assume he is more big and muscular rather than skinny, like bodybuilders. Skinny doesn’t seem like it fits.

Voice: high pitched, soft, cute / rough, deep (closer to his true alien voice) dere type: Yandere. it will be explained why.

Yandere.... hmm.....

gifts from him: flowers, rollerskates… Approach level: VERY EASY

He kinda seems like a loving puppy lololol

chronological age: 5470 years old, but he spent time on earth (and the space (research) station ) only 40 years (dude, he travelled to earth, and didnt have faster than light time travel)

I am very confused on his age. His biological age is 26-27 years but there are 40 years, and 5470 years sprawled in this little section. How old is he? In alien years? In human years?

Species description: Keith’s species are some sort of gigantic amphibians, living in equally big aquatic enviroments, their skin is coloured accordingly to the “sand” and vegetation of the environment, having a stocky build to resist the changing pressure in land and underwater, and fins, to build resistance.

The species are also predators, but rather than chasing down the prey, they just lure them using changing patterns on the skin and their visible veins to create a mesmerizing visage, and when the prey approaches, they hold it with their legs and commence eating them, first sucking their juices dry and then munching their dry bodies like a snack. besides obvious predator abilities, they can read feelings, and the reasons for those feelings, they just hold their claws onto the location of the heart of whoever they are reading and using their eyes to make them focus on the reader, its really simple, y'know-

I really like the species description and how each “amphibian-like” creature appears, but I am a little put off on how they lure their prey in. Generally, prey would only go near something if it looks like something familiar or safe. Therefore, I would have to recommend their skin and veins create different colors that resemble coral and such, although I do really like the idea! Also, you may need to go more in depth about how these creatures read feelings. Human emotions and alien emotions, I would imagine, are drastically different given they’re from different worlds. I suggest elaborating a little more on how they vary and how they are similar.

about keith: Keith is one excitable, cheerful boy, who’s really amazed by everything and might as well be a dog, loving to cuddle and nuzzle, however he has a cruel, jealous side, that he shows whenever someone outside the social circle he is in steps in and takes an interest to Ida,and uses their fear to his advantage, or manipulates them to do his biding.or else he would eat them, although he does it more on an impulsive whim, Ida has no idea of this , thinking he is an uwu soft dumb marshmallow , and neither does Mabel, who would tell Ida inmediately, Caleb knows but shrugs it off, Drake is really angry at this because it might blow up their cover, and Xander just scolds him because eating people isnt nice, and because Ida might find out. yeah… (I know this only covered a few personality traits…sorry)

I think this is a good personality trait for Keith. He seems lovable but is easily jealous and vicious. This dating sim or harem would actually work out very well because Keith is a character that could easily get into the way of another character’s move on Ida.

while not much of his past is known other than him being the first of his batch to hatch, it is theorized that his jealous, manipulative, vengeful cruel persona is the real one , due to other members of his species cowering in fear in his presence, however, he IS genuinely cheerful around Ida and truly supports her and her dreams.he is also very optimistic in that he is going to be her one true love, despite all his jealousness

Keith has some major issues lmao

He still remembers the first time he met Ida, he was going to go crazy after years of isolation, the only contact he has had was with scientists who just checked him up and left, but then came Ida, she was just cleaning up stuff, looking him and rambling about some things about travels and tourism, venting about her frustrations, he felt the urge of cheer her up, playing like a cat, humans like cats, however, maybe due to his size, she was more scared and angry , thus she searched for the nearest object which happened to be a metal bar that was used in case the door needed to be extra locked, and she knocked out two of his teeth with it.

Man, if I was looking for a man to be my significant other, I would search for one that would knock two of my teeth out with a metal bar on sight. But this is very reasonable. While it is cliche, if you were all alone and someone came to give you company, I bet something would start to blossom.

Keith understood perfectly she was ready to kill him in self defense if necessary, and she was about to start a ruckus (she does have anger issues, and her training was strictly cleaning related) , and she was going to get kicked out, thus, he was not going to see her again, he just calmly laid a claw on her, and looked her directly in the eyes, and found her frustrations and issues.

I think another reason why Keith might have the jealousness is because he was the first to meet Ida. You could maybe add in that these creatures have an “imprinting” thing going on that allows one to claim someone else as their significant other. This could work, but then again, all the other aliens are also going after Ida. Idk it’s just a thought.

Though he needed to talk to her and meet her outside of the job, the morphing device that was on a laboratory was perfect for creating his new persona, his human self, but he needed dna, which… wasnt hard to obtain, Ida’s suit was probably full of hairs, and whatnot, so he did what he had to do, take her suit and go away, it was a hard and painful process until he took a completely human form.

Dang that must hurt. However, I feel like using Ida’s DNA would make him look more like a girl. I would change this to Keith finding a way to obtain a male’s hair and then complete the transformation.

I think I explained in Ida’s profile what happened the next day…

Yes, yes you did.

Relationships:

with Ida: he is completely infatuated with her, idolizing her, and admiring her, although this is not good, but once he starts respecting her as a human being and acknowledging her faults the ship can sail, if not, there’s suffering for both of them, he is taking steps, for example, he respects her space.

Overprotective but not pushy. Honestly Keith isn’t that bad of a dude.

With Mabel: Mabel is helping him woo Ida, although she isnt aware of his Yandere tendencies.

What a girl Mabel, yes. But I still think Ida and Mabel could be a route in this sim.

With Drake: they dont get along very well, because despite Drake being violent and bloodthirsty he doesnt sugarcoat it , they like to play toghether though…

If “play” means “trying to rip each others’ throats out”, yeah, I guess they love to play.

With Caleb : Caleb and Keith get along very well with each other, is not hard since both of them are very approachable.

Good boys.

With Xander: both are very jealous of Ida, although Xander fears keith, and keith fears xander as well, no reason

I feel like there should be a reason they fear each other. We generally know why Keith is feared, but Xander should have an underlying trait or secret that makes him extremely dangerous. Its always the sweet/quiet ones.

Trivia: *He adopted the manic pixie dream guy persona to cheer Ida up, he loves seeing her smile *According to Ida he weights like a horse, it might be hyperbole though. *His human form presents no glamour failure at first, but if very stressed he shows parts of his true form. *And mantaining his cute voice is difficult for him too *he is an amphibian and thus needs to be hydrated constantly, he carries a purse full of bottled water.

I honestly really like Keith a lot more now. He originally seemed too generic and likable, but he has flaws and I do want to learn more about the fear everyone seems to show around him. Don’t be afraid to send in your other characters, i would be happy to review them!

Thanks for reading, and I hope this helps! (◕ ω ◕✿)

@Faun what do you mean by the "ethics of dating sim intimacy" in your contributor bio? very interested

Response from Faun:

(omg. i was always hoping somebody would ask this!!! thank u for your question friend 💕)

As a person who has played through a fair number of dating sim video games, I’ve frequently been struck by the somewhat bizarre nature in which the very concepts of romance and intimacy have managed to be gamified. Within a standard dating sim, the process of courtship is broken down into a series of in-game mechanics, such as having conversations, giving gifts, and of course, going on dates themselves. Most if not all of the cast that you encounter are viable candidates for romance, and each character has their own “strategy” for gaining their affection. That is, if you say the right things, buy them presents they like, and follow all the proper steps to completing their “route,” they’re essentially all but yours in the end. However, this is where the questionable nature of dating sims comes into play: because all the datable candidates of the game are more or less designed to be “winnable,” they represent a corrupted presentation of romantic intimacy as it exists in real life. These in-game characters lack any agency of their own, and as long as the player completes the tasks required of them, they are programmed to unconditionally dispense affection, regardless of what the player’s true disposition or intentions are.

Of course, you can make the assertion, “Well, these are just characters in a game. If they didn’t do what they’re supposed to do, then the game wouldn’t be any fun to play.” And I can definitely see the validity of that point. With that being said, however, what I’m most concerned about are the implications of how romance simulation games fundamentally operate, or what people might unconsciously take away when they play them. In general, people play dating sims expecting to gain some sort of validation or companionship, even if vicariously through a video game. I would also suggest, though, that this type of affection tacitly carries with it the notions of power and control. We love dating sims not because of the cute anime girls (okay, maybe a little bit because of the cute anime girls), but because these girls are within our control; as long as we play the game right, they are guaranteed—rather, obligated—to fall in love with us.

But it’s all in good fun, right? Not necessarily: if players carry over this distorted understanding of relationships and intimacy into their real life interpersonal encounters, then it could result in repercussions outside of the virtual world as well. I actually wrote a paper on dating sims for an English class last year (lol), and in my conclusion I posited that the traditional portrayal of female characters in romance simulation games conflates femininity with the affects of malleability and subservience. Especially because dating sims originated from Japan and are commonly stylized to embody a “Japanese” aesthetic, Asian femininity is particularly vulnerable to exploitation, as it often already is (think of the term “yellow fever,” referring to a fetishized preference toward Asian people, usually women, or the phrase “me love you long time,” suggesting an Asian woman’s role to be sexually servile). By presenting these characters as romantically subservient and unconditionally “winnable,” dating sims can implicitly supply not only a commodified form of intimacy but also the fantasy of the “Oriental woman.”

Nevertheless, I’m not going to sit here and argue that dating sims are inherently bad or that you should stop playing them (heck, I still play them even after ~going off~ about them in my English paper last fall). All I’m saying is that beyond their cute and lighthearted surface-level exterior, dating sims and their treatment of gamified romance have the potential to perpetuate certain connotations of intimacy and specific storylines of agency. Of course, I acknowledge that not all dating sims feature women as the sole/primary dateable characters, and in fact, there are a lot of new games out there that actively subvert some of the genre’s typical “tropes” (the ones I can think of off the top of my head are Doki Doki Literature Club, Dream Daddy Dating Simulator, etc). Ultimately, I just wanted to present a few of my thoughts on the topic, and I hope they were able to resonate with you in some way. Regardless, I’m grateful that you took the time to ask about a subject that is near and dear to my heart, and I am happy to have been able to share my passion for dating sims with you all here today! 😌
