Here’s another preview for the first half of Chapter 2-3 which was just completed (and is now available on Patreon).

MC Acting Very Reasonably & Responsibly During Their Part of the Multi-user Spell


That’s one of the things, although there’s more going on than just that as well.

“Look, look, bear with me here. Like, demons like fire, right? And Cthulhu is going to drown the world, right? So we neutralise the demons’ fire with Cthulhu!* Simple, yet genial!”

(also, “WHOSE awakening will destroy the world”)

*the irony being, of course, that Cthulhu is aspected EARTH, not water. Which is why he’s called Cth-.

DAMN. I literally get negative fear every time and I didn’t even THINK of it coming back to bite me in the ass. You think of everything!! Literally haven’t loved a story like this in so long, your hard work and attention to detail is as immaculate as it is punishing (sometimes lol).

The book club part hasn’t been finished yet, has it? Will it be when I finish writing the current chapter? I’m just curious ^^

Thanks for the continuing comments + stats!

Now that’s thinking like a cloudcuckoolander! (Also three different spellchecks didn’t find that typo – R.I.P. Notepad++, CSIDE, and Quillbot spellchecks)

Well, negative fear is like high purity, high willpower, low corruption etc… generally a good thing, but then there’s those certain outlier cases where what’s beneficial and detrimental gets flipped.

And I think you can guess where literally having no fear might get detrimental.

Well, I mean, there’s the whole “You’re possessed” part… but besides that, the stuff on the stat screen is enigmatic for a reason.

folks please be honest with me here, can we pass the agility stat check at the elevator? yes or no? cuz im pulling an all muscle zero brain&charm mc just i can pass, but they still tripping mid dance ;;;;;;;;;;;

It’s possible. I generally don’t lose the spell until I fail to stop the security guard. Is it the guy in the elevator? Have you tried looming and glaring? Or do you mean before you get into the elevator on your floor? The key there is stopping the little girl. I’ve done it most consistently successfully by nearly dropping a plant or by dancing along.

i mean, when we decide to perform a random dance to stop the weed elevator guy, and be sucessfull, you can choose to either stop dancing or continue to dance like a lunatic before meeting the security lad, and then if u choose to continue, u trip and fall, and im asking if thats inevitable or is another stat check ;;;;;;;; but u good thanks

I really love the game despite the horror element, because of the pure gold comedy between a cuckoo+serenade MC and Adrian’s distress.

I really love how hardworking bold MC to flirt to Adrian, he even flirt to Merlin just to make Adrian jealous :rofl:… Also love the part when MC kneeling to Adrian to purpose him. Conclusion: MC likes to flirt with Adrian in every time he given the chances even in the dark staircase :wink:

Oh, to stop him there is a bunch of ways, to list a few:

Have a pet pig
High charm (magnetism(?))
A knife (serial killer)
Be a security guard (job)

Hope this helps

how to become a serial killer?

It’s one of the secrets you can choose after the club activities.

When choosing mcs dark secret (when mc and adrian meet after the club meeting) you can either choose: im an imposter, not human, a serial killer or that u lying bout amnesia.
Of course, if you do have a phobia that cannot exist on harmony with the serial killer secret ( afraid of blood, etc) then its gonna be grey out

I will admit, I have never chosen the pig. Pigs aren’t pets, they need too much room, and outdoors room at that. I guess it never even occurred to me to pick that even in a game.
