I hope you do!
I wish you a wonderful New Year 
XOXO

That patreon free tier prize
Whoever won the Patreon (one month of free subscription) by being on the free Patreon tier still hasn’t redeemed it!
I’ll have to choose someone else in a few days 
It was a Gmail email, and I realise my email prob looked like spam cause I was all like, “You won a prize! (not spam)”
But it wasn’t spam!
For once…
Anyway, I can’t contact you directly on Patreon for some reason, so yeah. Check y’all’s inboxes and spam folders.
XOXO

Meanwhile, my cat is trying to search the word boob but with too many 0s in between.
The other time she sent me a double winkie sad face cause I wasn’t in the room with her.
I love my kitty. Confused on how she types though.

I’m afraid I have to inform that the winner claimed their prize earlier today!
But I think it could be a fun thing to do each update? Either way I’m sure I’ll do it again sometime.

Hey, love the WIP!! Btw, is there any poly route?

Nope. There will be drama and more drama.

For chapter 4 when the game asks us what we think of our appearance, could we get an option for being incurably vain while not appreciating the attention? I played my character as someone who mostly dresses up for themselves, not for others, so I’m not sure the current options there make sense.

Just to make you aware, Dashingdon hosting will be closing soon so I would recommend moving this to cogdemos or uploading a compiled html file:

@Raptorofwar said, there’s no poly route in the game between MC and the ROs. There are though different combinations of LT, but that’s ofc not the same thing.

Do you mean in ch3? Or some other moment?
Hmm, I have had it in my notes to write also a less robotic / cold version of being neutral about ones looks.
I can probably add in this one too. It won’t touch upon how you feel about others tho, but the attractive MCs do lack a “yes I am gorgeous, ofc I knew” option, so I’ll add that.
New options for very attractive MC. (Attractive mc has very similar choices too now).
*comment Very attractive
Wherever you went, you were told you were all manner of god-given beauty. Flattery and gifts came often and unprompted.
But so did hatred and harsh words from the ones who despised you for what others 'loved' you for.
Then there were the stares. Openly. Vulgarly. As if you were a heavy coin purse dangling on a belt, daring to exist in view of the desperate and starving.
Boundaries, polite manners, and courtly etiquette flew out the window for anyone with hungry eyes and you in their view.
You were wanted for your looks—and you were told, by words and actions, that you are beyond pleasing to the eye and [i]the[/i] ideal in all forms of appearance.
*fake_choice
#And staring back at me is a jaw droppingly gorgeous individual, so that all made perfect sense.
The reflection in front of you was of someone amazingly good-looking.
You were exquisite.
And that was the truth.
#And what I saw was a very pleasing face. One I loved.
The reflection in front of you brought you joy.
That others thought so too was... merely a side effect.
#It was a face looking back at me. Simply a face. I did not concern myself with any facial function beyond identification and communication.
What a useless worry to have. Wasting mental effort on something that will, beyond any doubt, fade with time.
Your appearance was what it was. And for its purpose—
That would do.
#It was a face looking back at me. Simply a face. I... cared for it decently. Flaws, fair features, and all.
Your appearance was what it was. And for its purpose it did well enough.
You tried not to worry or fuss. Wasting mental effort on something that will, beyond any doubt, fade with time.
It... [i]you[/i] would do.
#But when I looked at the mirror image, I frowned at the sight.
It was not what you wanted—the reflection in front of you.
And you did not have the words to describe the pain that brought.
#However, meeting my gaze in the mirror is a hideous monster. Therefore, people must have been exercising much kindness with such words.
Perhaps this is how most people are looked at, though you have found no proof of it. Perhaps it is an elaborate lie to humiliate, placate, or pity the poor ghastly beast. Whatever, or why-ever, you were treated as you are, it had no impact on how you saw yourself.
You were hideous.
And that was the truth.

I was gonna edit the chapter some more, but… my brain is dead from the remnants of my still lingering cold, so I uploaded the build I have that I know works!
Upcoming fixes/additions:
- More choices for the H simp route so you can play “I accepted your invite, but don’t think that means I like you too much… / I thought it would be good for the case
” vibes. - The currently greyed-out choice to think about the ROs that don’t appear in your ch 6.1, like Lestrade (and more).
- W platonic balancing.
- Some of the pictures!
- More minor fixes + edits.
If you have any feedback beyond these things, feel free to send them here, on itch, or on Tumblr!
Upcoming content:
- W pov of the beginning of ch6.1 (will appear on Patreon next week).
Also, just wanted to say, goodbye Dashingdon and thank you for everything!

Short question, will you upload it to cogdemos.ink too, please?

Tbh, I don’t think I will.
I like having all the games and minigames in one place too much 
Is there a reason you don’t like itch hosting? I recommend trying the link and letting me know if there’s anything in the HTML that bothers you, and then I can work on that 
As they are both simply based around choicescript there shouldnt be too many difference. But, again, do let me know if there’s anything I can work on in the html file!
