WIP Grey Swan - Birds of a Rose Update 29.05.25 total 220k

The most recent error was line 1544.

As for the weirdness, I guess its weird for a few reasons, first its kinda weird when compared to the warning that anything but straight has consequences, which i think would be most exploited in the ambitious path. Second its weird that you start being exploited by a high ranking person, only to next have a un ranked or slightly higher try. Like the structure seems off, your starting at the top and going down it seems like an down grade instead of an upgrade if that makes sense.

Also dumb question how do i hide spoilers?

Okay will check that out tomorrow, thanks!

(call me dumb but where did I write that? :sob:) Which reminds me I need to add sth for that cases, but also straight members have their hardshps it hasnt come up yet however, and wont come up much in the ambitious route.
And maybe this helps clear it up: as soon as MC is wearing rubies anyone can take advantage of them, this was what this scene should show but I guess I need to rewrite a bit, no matter the rank as long as its higher than MCs. In turn MC could in theory also take advantage of anyone with a lesser rank.

Yo click on the settings while writing, the magic wand lets you hide spoilers.

:thinking: now I’m wondering, if maybe I imagined that warning.

Aha found it: play as gay, bi, straight, aroace or ace, but be prepared for consequences.

Maybe I misunderstood the warning, since nothing regsrding sexuality wise has popped consequences.

Ah, I will change that, thanks I totally forgot about that. Also there will be consequences, if the wrong people get to know about that.

I took out the trigger warnings as it seemed to do more harm than good (most of these things only applied to really niche choices or choices where it is clear what happens, so you know what you are getting yourself into!

But I once said that BoaR is a WIP where even straight guilt exists and this will happen not soon (cause I need to finish the birthday which is a ton) but in the next update it will hit the MC full force!

Aha no worries, I enjoy messing around with the game and choices and while ambitious path will no longer interest me theres still the ability to make daddy marcel worse :heart_eyes:

No problem, its not for everyone! But some things cant be choosen, and this path really shows that lol (it will be much shorter than the rest, but I am still working on making the end statysfying and with a lot of replayability! In one ending Marcel will kill MC for example)

Oh you will have fun! You can also make him better but where is the fun in that? You can also become just as bad as he is. (btw did you get “invited” by him for the bday? I always wory if such things dont show up in game)

Is the birthday event

Summary

Where he takes you and the other revans to be marked? I kinda found that disappointing, I unashamedly hoped he’d put a personal mark on the mc.

Give me red flags or death at the red flags hands

Marcel not being possessive enough is also a first time complaint :joy:
I will write more to this scene, but he wont mark MC yet! He knows MC since like… one day, it will happen i just have no idea yet xX

What about red flag Astoria?

I dont like women shrugs but shes probably not enough of a red flag. Speaking of daddy Marcel I’m sad my songbird cant romance him a shy submissive with a possive red flag is delicious :yum: :drooling_face:

Okay fair, neither do I lol
(lets say astoria in the owl volery is a… red flag even worse than Marcel)
I dont think there are more red flag ros but we will see! I still have more ros to come up with after all.

I wish I could somehow merge the voleries but its already a lot if I keep them simple. (yeah I call a unique ro, a unique sidestory, sth unique for the bday “simple”)

For certain ros like Marcel and Astoria i could actually see them being available to all plots, as ravens serve as security hed kinda be available like Astoria and her not having a volery. Also please Astoria can’t be worse then daddy Marcel please no.

Marcel is also an outcast by the Ravens, he doesnt get to do normal stuff, yeah i need to add more stuff… i need to add a lot of stuff.
(and… really big ass spoiler and tw proceed with care Astoria will either almost kill MC or rape MC)

Why couldnt that be Marcel? Damnit why does all the good stuff go to Astoria? Next thing youll be saying is being bitched slapped with werewolf claws for chase stuff

Marcel will never do that (his whole group is made up of sexaul abuse victims), but lets say if I were comfortable or interested in writing smut scenes he would be really rough because he likes having control.

And no, werewolf claws are Fuchsia! But I still have quiet a few RO spots open, I am curious which characters will take their place! One should be someone you will quiet like! Its the Sparrow volery, the RO hasnt shown up yet.

Ah sorry, english isnt my first language so sometimes i have errors in communication and understanding

Summary

What I mean is based on how youve present the two i see and understand Astoria as more of the manipulative type of red flag therefore rape wouldnt really seem her style. As for my beloved Marcel hes introduced with physical violence in his intro and that other scene which makes me think rape would be his style.
Also maybe its a bug, but on the birthday night chase keeps saying i am spending time with Astoria despite picking him.

Aha sorry that should fix the spoiler issue :sweat_smile:

English also isnt my first language :joy: ik what you mean.
(also, your spoilers dude :sweat_smile:)
I wanted to switch those tropes a bit, but lets say Astoria only does that in the Owl route because MC is the closest to her and she does the only thing she knows to keep people close to her (under normal circumstances she wouldnt have dont that). And Marcel would only beat you up.

This code is so horrible broken I dont know why :frowning:

Lol programming is a labor of love you can do it

And Marcel would only beat you up. Dont you threaten me with a good time.

After chase asks if we sleepwalk it has an error message

nacht line 1544: increasing indent not allowed, expected 1 was 2

Labour fits very well… you dont want to see that code i am writing atm man.

Thanks, I have been looking in the wrong file. will fix it in an hour!

Hi!

You already seem to be working on coding errors (bless you, my condolences for how easy it breaks).

Just another heads up incase you were not aware.

Decided to try the new owls.

Got to the point where I can Curtsey or refuse. If i choose “Do not curtsey back” i get the following:

nacht line 290: increasing indent not allowed, expected 1 was 2

I can continue if i curtsy but after the… TBATBA scene right after it (when the button on the bottom is “you stand infront of your dorm”)

I get

nacht line 522: increasing indent not allowed, expected 1 was 2
