The latest preview makes me think that Onund God of the Hole is going to make a return

Gotta love that look of "Now that I know you're a confirmed predator, I'm ready to take our relationship to the next level".

Huh.
Funny enough, that's just about how the scene plays out—excepted I got the wrong girl's back.
Go me!

interesting that Selebus says that "I swallow my pride" cause the characters need to be true to themselves, like he didn't literally send said character to be passed around as a cumdump for 19 years immediately after Chika forced him to change his script
I see through you, Selebus. You aren't foolling me.

...now Maki's in the love hotel?
Are they having an intervention for Yuki? Seems like a really strange venue choice.

I mean, as a writer, it’s a good ethos to have, though. Characters should be able to exist outside of a writer’s control, so I appreciate that he acknowledges that characters grow beyond the direct godlike control of the writer; something difficult to allow as a writer.

I think you're one of the only people here who has payed enough attention to know what Selebus really meant when he says that the characters write themselves.interesting that Selebus says that "I swallow my pride" cause the characters need to be true to themselves, like he didn't literally send said character to be passed around as a cumdump for 19 years immediately after Chika forced him to change his script

Chika's symposium event was bullshit.

That last quote from Sel, about the characters writing themselves... Props. A lot of writers don't listen to the characters and that's almost always a bad idea. My characters are constantly taking me in unexpected directions, usually better than whatever I'd penciled into my poor excuse for an outline.
Now, mind, with a cast this big, and so full of... highly eccentric folks, I can also imagine the cast's muttering driving Sel nuts.
Or more nuts.
Oh, boy. The Amy event. The mall. The mall. :shudder:
Made me want to take a hammer to my own head. Easily my least favorite event in the whole game (exclusing all of the reset puzzles). Sel writes well. His concept of game design leaves a lot to be desired, methinks.
As for why Wakana is upset... Well, it's with good reason. It's about whose poems she's reading, and whose poetry they remind her of—and what that tells her about Sensei.

I think it speaks to the quality of the writing that characters might go against the intentions of plot, since they matter to the writer. It’s part of why they matter to us, too. They aren’t just puppets of the writer; instead, they take on a life and character of their own, so it makes them much more relatable and deep as creations. And considering Sel is intensely conceited, for him to admit that characters take priority over his own ego is a point of relief and positivity, given his usual assholish nature.That last quote from Sel, about the characters writing themselves...

Very unrealistic way of being groomed by a teacher by the way. Miku is probably a failure in terms of representing a teenage girl, the only one even more ridiculous than her is Io(but maybe teenagers like her a common place in America, in which case I retract my statement).

I wonder if this is related to the last ayhh post.
Can a wish make a wish. Can a phantasy create a phantasy.
I just wasn't sure who is/was the origin. Akira or Sel. Who that metaphor was akin to at, it's origin.
It also reminds me of a sentence i forgot who actually said it (something like): "What do you think happens to npc's in a game when you turn it off? Do you think they'll cease to exist, or will they keep on living their lives?"
