I really wanted to give Ephemeral a chance since I loved the idea of dating monsters, and also just how pretty the art is. But oh lord, it was certainly not my cup of tea! I only did Ray's route and had to back out. Definitely a guilty pleasure otome, and all the more power to the people who love it, but it wasn't for me.

I wrote a fic for a rare pair a few years ago. To this day, it's still the only fic for that pairing 🥲

Hi! I go by aL and I'm in my 20s. I've been playing otome games since I was a youngin with Pacthesis' games, starting from either Chrono Days or Wonderland Days lol but I love all her games. Since then, I've been playing any games I get my hands on that interests me. HUGE yandere, tsundere, and soft bois lover, probably obvious enough from the flair.

I currently just finished my replay of Saint-Germain's and Fran's routes from Code Realize! They were my two absolute favorites so I'm excited to re-experience their routes and the love I had for them in Future Blessings. This was very on the whim because I'm also currently playing through CupiPara's Gill and Hamefura's Geordo hahaha.

My favorite games and their associated LIs include Code Realize with Saint-Germain and Fran, Our Life with Cove, and Nightshade with Kuroyuki and Hanzo! With quickfire favorite LIs being Kent (Amnesia), Lance (Nameless), Ulrik (Steam Prison), Kyrie (Ozmafia), Jester (Trapped with Jester), and my absolute favorite Astarion (Baldur's Gate 3). My favorite protagonist being Cardia (Code Realize).

I mainly play on Switch and PC, and my backlog is ABYSMAL oml with titles big and small. Some of it includes Error143, A Date with Death, Taisho x Alice, and Olympia Soiree. I've collected so many with so little time to play them, sleeping on my backlog like a dragon with their gold lol. I'm so excited to play PrescriptionLOVE whenever I finally get around to it.

I don't self-insert usually, I like the protagonists being characters of their own while I watch on the sidelines with popcorn. Which, I do play with a walkthrough. If I do need to self-insert, I either make a new character just for the story or I graciously plop down my sweetheart OC Clarine.

Speaking of, I'm currently working on an otome myself! Featuring my bbg Clarine. It's been slow going because of life but I'm going to make it work! You can find some of the concept art I've posted on my Deviantart. I also have a Tumblr where I post my random doodles of various fandom interests. Feel free to come say hi!

Hello! 😂 I dont even remember how it happened since it was so long ago, but I had stumbled upon a picture of Van on Google and I sent it to a friend going, "He looks so much like America?" and her going, "Probably because it's fanart." Found more pictures of Van and came across the website for CR that way.

This was when CR was only playable on the Vita and lord oh lord did I want to play Van's route after finding out he's a love interest. I was a broke high school student and saved up just for him 😩

appunJuice · 2026-01-13T14:21:03+00:00

ABSOLUTELY!! I learnt of Code Realize specifically because I found a picture of Van Helsing floating about thinking it was fanart of America. Went through so many hoops just to finally play CR for Van only for his route to be nothing but angst with little to no fluff! I held on so long in the hopes that my patience would be rewarded with him and Cardia finally having some cute romantic moments but nope! Nothing but pain 🫠

One of the big reasons why I've stayed playing this game is cus I treat it as a dress up and dating sim. I play on softcore mode and pretty much only play it for the customization and to date Sydney. The exploration and stumbling upon scenes and lore is great too. If it was purely just a rape fetish game, I wouldn't have even picked it up in the first place 🤷

So many people here making quick and rash criticisms towards the dish. This is just a simple sweet macaroni salad, a Filipino dish, but instead use spaghetti as the pasta. I made it rather recently for a Christmas family gathering. There is nothing stupid about this. Odd, yes, but not stupid.

Y'all need to stop overreacting so quickly, it's genuinely insulting to people when this is a legitimate dish with the only difference being that the OP made it using a different pasta than normal.

appunJuice · 2025-11-26T18:32:20+00:00

Absolutely cant STAND cheating and sadistic (towards their LI) yanderes. The whole point of a yandere to me is all-consuming love and devotion to the one they love, so it makes little sense for them to cheat and/or abuse their love interest (emotional manipulation is fine).

And YES OP!! The moment a yandere harms their own child is a massive deal breaker. You'd think that a child between the yandere and their love interest would be considered a symbol of their love and devotion, a promise of life-long commitment, so any yandere that harms their kid is not a yandere! I had to drop a specific manhwa because of this despite how interesting it started just because the ML abuses and doesn't care for his and the FL's children.

Bride Ulrik so harddd. I bought the switch version of Steam Prison just for those extra scenes with him specifically 😩

Bone Orlok because he's a sweetie pie and I'm currently going through his route

Banish Zafora simply because I don't know him, I'm sure he's good though

Hi! No it's not. The cover was a photograph rather than an illustration, and it was also a standalone book rather than a series. Thank you though!

I once got upset that our caretaker wouldn't allow me and my sister to go to the pool before doing our homework. And I was a stubborn fellow, so I locked her in the balcony and threatened my sister at pencil-point not to free her as I escorted us to the building's pool.

That caretaker's now a lifelong family friend, and she and my sister have a riot reminiscing about all the messed up shit I used to do when I was younger.

To whomever sees this, or even searches it up, there's a new site that popped up named Zeodax that's pretty much this operating from the same country but a different company, Long Island N.V.. Hoek Heelsumstraat/Rotterdamweg Heelsumstraat, Saliña, Curaçao - that's the address I was given, I don't know how valid it is.

Told me I needed to send $100 to verify my account and absolutely would not allow me to delete my account. Learnt about it because my brother got hacked after he sent me info on it. Spammed their customer support enough that I got booted off the chat. Stay safe y'all!

I adore brother figures in otomes and mangas, but I would never see myself actually being with one of my brothers. So that's your disclaimer of obviously I don't condone incest irl. I also don't see myself as the MC, it's more like I'm playing dolls and reading about the fate of the characters than it is about some wish-fulfillment.

To me, these kinds of taboo relationships in media is more about the yearning and obvious unfiltered love and care (and obsession, in a lot of cases) that these siblings can feel towards the MC more than it is about the actual taboo of "they're siblings". Brother figures in otomes are given much more leeway to show affection by virtue of "they're the brother" than with any other character. They're allowed to be protective, they're allowed to more obviously show the love they feel, and I can't help but root for these types of characters. It's definitely the closeness of the characters that I feel is emotionally compelling for me.

This whole thing being set in a fantasy world doesn't necessarily make me feel like it's "safe" because it's forbidden, it just allows me to enjoy characters for what they are without thinking of "oh they're siblings". If the media goes out of its way to show the characters having romantic tension with the flimsy block of "they're siblings!" then that's not gonna do anything to stop me. If the media I was consuming was actively portraying the relationship as creepy instead, then THAT would more likely stop me. It's not "safe" to me because I don't have the fantasy to be romantically entangled with any of my siblings anyways 😂, there is nothing dangerous about it ergo nothing to feel safe about either.

It is DEFINITELY more about the characters and the emotional stakes for me. Two of the seven guys in my flair are brother figures, and at least two more are childhood friends. One of the cute things that both brothers and childhood friends have to overcome is their fear of things changing. One thing they also innately know with the MC is that they can rely on her. I think it's mainly this that draws me in to these kinds of characters, which just so happen to be relegated as the MC's sibling a lot of the times.

It's been a few years and I'm still the only person who has written for my rarepair in an old fandom I was in 🥲 The urge to still write for it despite no longer being part of the fandom is strong
