I just wanted to say this is one of my favorite WIPs and I love your writing
I was also wondering if you might share some more information on your Mordred? Heâs my favorite character already lmao

I mentioned this one a different thread but I guess it canât hurt to sing praises twice! I love this game deeply, when I read I could play a lesbian Guen I was sold. A minor thing I would have changed was when weâre thinking about what is to come at the start I would have added a thought of âI canât love a manâ, but I choose that Iâm mad marrying someone I donât know and excited to be Queen, which both are also true.
Now on the praises, I have to say that without a doubt my opinion of Arthur was completely set by how awesome he was about me being a lesbian, it was a cute scene showing how naive he is but he ultimately accepted it and didnât push wish I really thought was amazing. Because of this he cemented by loyalty, I actually couldnât bring myself to kill my hostage because even if he never knew I would have knownâŚthat is some powerful writing imo. Another thing I loved so much was little things like Morgana cutting her nails lol that was great!

Question regarding Tilda: In all my playthroughs, she says the reason she didnât let Guen know was because she wasnât sure about her loyalty to Arthur. Does that reaction change based on how you treat Arty?
I personally played 100% loyal to Arthur and his vision because he was so accepting with me being a lesbian, so unless sleeping with him changes things then I can say it does not change.

Aww⌠thatâs something of a disappointment. Oh well, back to playing Guen as a tyrannical Dark Knightess. 
Thanks for answering my question.
(finally deciding to delurk after playing the game and reading the comments for a couple of months now)
Huh, I always assumed that comment had something to do with the fact that both of the Guens Iâve played so far are having affairs. Oh well, Iâm not sure I could do a play through where Iâm 100% supportive of him anyway. Itâs not that I, or my main Guen who Iâve based on my personality, hate him or want him to come to harm. Itâs just that every time I try to like him he turns around and does something else that frustrates and/or angers me.
Like on the wedding day although sheâs nervous, she hopes that theyâll get along and be good together, but then gets upset/angry when he congratulates Lancelot before making sure sheâs ok. And she thinks well maybe we just got off to a rocky start but things will start to get better. But then when she tells him that sheâs asexual he basically insinuates that sheâs not human. (which is the one critique I have of an otherwise amazing game; not his reaction, because that unfortunately does happen, but the available responses to it:âYouâre welcomeâ or âThank you for trying to understandâ?!..Even though, however cluelessly, he just invalidated a part of who she is. I feel like there should be some angry/upset options hereâŚunless the youâre welcome is supposed to be read as sarcastic or deflated?) Though I do appreciate that he eventually realizes that he was an ass and comes to apologize. So then me Guen is like ok maybe we can work past this, but then there was the sheep issue (which I found hilarious, but I can easily see how itâd be frustrating for Guen) and more importantly being kidnapped by Meligaunt, who she told him not to trust in the first place, and then him running after the wrong Guen 
Funnily enough, I enjoyed these characters so much that I decided to make a sims 4 family of them, and as soon as I unpaused the game Arthur decided he had to go grill something and set the house on fire. I guess itâs a sign that heâs doomed to endlessly frustrate me no matter what lol.

Ooh boy, Artyâs gonna be in the doghouse nowâŚ
@Tehani Love is always appreciated! 
@ceecrab aaaaaaa Scottish Mordred!!! 
@lilethys Thank you! 
Hm, Mordred⌠Well, like any good villain, Mordred thinks heâs the protagonist⌠Heâs cocky and confident and many people (in the story) will like him for that. Mordred thinks Arthurâs done a terrible job of running the kingdom, and heâs sure he could do better. He respects his mother (Morgana) but is often at odds with his brothers. While he wants to use Guen for his own purposes, that doesnât mean heâs not physically attracted to her even though sheâs old enough to be his mom. Mordred has some magical abilities which make him sit lightly on the passage of time, so he doesnât think about age as much as most people do.
@Lizzy Thatâs all wonderful to hear; thank you so much!! I honestly hadnât thought of that particular progression (that Arthur would gain Guenâs loyalty specifically by being understanding about her sexuality) but I love that it worked out that way. I do like the idea of lesbian Guen having a positive, honest, and understanding relationship with Arthur, so I will do my best to keep making that possible!
@Asura Tilda does say something slightly different depending on Guenâs reputation or relationship with Arthur, but thereâs no variant in which Tilda can talk to Guen about the situation when theyâre still in Camelot. That would just be too much work and too many variables to juggle. So no matter what, Tilda will say that she wasnât sure if she could trust Guen.
@Cinnamages Yay, thanks for delurking! Your Guenâs reactions to things are great; I love how she doesnât actively hate Arthur, but every time she thinks things might get better, he does another frustrating thing⌠Poor long-suffering Guen. 
And youâre absolutely right, I should put in an angrier reaction to the ace conversation. I think at the time I was trying to make it as efficient as possible, because I had written an earlier version that was waaaaay too long and complicated, so I was going for minimalism, but an additional response or two shouldnât bog things down. Thanks for the suggestion, and for all of your comments! Oh, and Arthur setting the house on fire⌠
yeah, I could definitely see that happening.

Friendly reminder that Morgana is perfect and deserves protection.

Interesting⌠if thatâs the case, do Morgana and Guen - provided sheâs magically-inclined - also have slowed aging?
I didnât think that would be the case, but I thought there wouldnât be any harm in asking. Thanks for responding to my inquiry! [immediately goes back to proving Tildaâs suspicions right]

My Guen would most definitely agree. Morgana = 
@Asura Yep, Iâm not sure how mean I want to be yet, but heâs not just gonna get away with it. Though Iâm incapable of being truly evil, no matter how hard I try when I want to play such a character, and thatâs not my intention here. So Iâll probably pick the middle ground optionâŚunless telling him about the affair makes him so upset that I think Iâve already done enough damage. 
I feel like my Guen would tell him because she was honest with him about ordering that Hrothgar(sp?) be killed even though she knew he wouldnât like it and even picked the option explaining that decision that said at least she was honest with him instead of lyingâŚPlus she kinda already blurted out that she was having an affair with Morgana to Lancelot and itâs not really fair if he knows but Arthur doesnât.
@jeantown Thanks for taking my suggestion. Iâm actually really excited that this game even has an ace option and better yet, unlike the few others Iâve played with such an option, doesnât treat ace and aro as the same thing so either youâre both and you donât get to romance anybody or youâre neither and it automatically puts sex scenes into the romances.

I donât think that was Hrothgar⌠although if it was Iâm curious if weâll se a Beowulf cameoâŚ
I couldnât have him killed, I wanted toâŚbadly! Heâs a jerk and I feel like everyone is right that letting him live is a mistake, but its what Arthur wanted and as I said before I feel a fierce loyalty to him since he respected that Iâm not into guys.
I DO hope I get the chance to be honest about being with Morgana, I felt so sorry for him after the sheep thing when he was all âWant to hang out tonightâ and I replied âNope, going to spend the night with Morgana!â Poor Arthur probably didnât put 1 and 1 together lol

Although, in Arthurâs defence - Gah, I canât believe Iâm just said that! - nothing really intimate goes on between them until the boat ride.

True, and it wasnât exactly an opportune moment what with Meligaunt snooping around and sneaking into everyoneâs rooms.

I get the distinct impression that, barring a few common traits, your Guen and my Guen are very, very different womenâŚ

@Asura oopsâŚI knew it was an unusual name that started with an h, but I was too lazy to replay that part to check the spelling so I took my best guess⌠Idk where I got the name I came up with though as Iâve never read/watched Beowulf. I guess I shouldâve been more suspicious that spell check didnât underline it lol.
@Lizzy Iâm glad that he respected that part of your Guen. As you can tell from my previous comments, his initial reaction to an Ace Guen is not so great. Though I guess at least he does thank you for telling him and eventually apologizesâŚbut I was still mad at him. Which is not to say that thatâs the only reason why I did it. I also didnât want to give H another chance at trying to kill Guen.
And yes I laughed at bit at that too, but in Arthurâs defense in my case the Ace conversation overrides the I like girls conversation so he has no idea sheâs into women.
