I know I'm like 3 years late to this game but I'm completely obsessed with it. I would die for both these kids I need to take them to whatever the fuck the Alternian equivalent of a mcdonalds is.

I am so glad that I found this! Sersun's route made me laugh so much. Fourth-wall-breaking reader and despondant troll friend was such a good combo.

STAND THERE LIKE AN ASSHOLE also got some giggles out of me, and of course I chose it first, not caring whether it was the right choice or not. Sometimes you just gotta... click the funny prompts. It was nice to take another troll to the home-hive, though!

Magical girl the Argonaut, AKA Kirbey! Up to a certain point in the story: "I love him so much, and want to enter an odd to interpret mentor/mentee relationship with him." After That: "For the love of god please call me shithead."

Chibin- sorry, MOONSLAYER, was so fun! He was so cute, kinda reminded me of one of my little sibbos. Getting real with kiddos isn't always the easiest, but I'm glad we got to talk to him about being safe, cus I honestly was worried about him. I spent a few moments staring at the good ending picture and repeating "purrbeast boy" for a good minute though. Just for kicks.

All in all, this was fantastic, and I cannot wait for more (if you're planning on making more, that is)!
