Family lives in A, owns the summerhouse as C Wait, so they lived in A and summered in C, even though the two houses are quite close together? Hokkaido's about 60% the size of the state of NY, so I can see how you might have a house near a city like Sapporo and decide to have another place out in a ...

Perhaps it's better to ask what catharsis is with intellectual engagement. The process of self-examination followed by appropriate purification is also a time-honoured one — you can find it in any culture. I see A22's challenge, no matter how worded, as a useful one. We've all had some emotional eng...

Now, an interesting point you got me thinking on here, Spunk, is that Hisao has NO romantic rivals in any route. I still think the simplest explanation is that when you come into a high school in the last semester before graduation, most people are already taken, and those that aren't, which you ar...

Oh that dramatic rumble in the background, just before the storm… your characters are so very… alive, and more so with each chapter. Also, their psychological conflicts are very realistic. It's been a great way to end my evening. Thanks for Chapter 39!

For writing in this context (KS fanfic) I have a modest set-up: 1) Excel, with a spreadsheet showing events in my timeline. I just insert events whenever I need to, setting my cells to wrap. Dates, people, etc. 2) Word, with two sets of windows: one set has the KS scripts in them so that I'm always ...

It seems to me it's like this: Family lives in House A (the one near a city on Hokkaido) Family moves to House B ("our real house", the one fairly south of Sendai/Yamaku), keeping House A as a vacation home Parents move to Scotland Lilly and Akira decide to (and/or convince parents to) sell House A...

An article about paranoia and hallucinations and no mention of anyone getting high off sleep deprivation...Neat. :P Also, I'm pretty sure Daemon's idea of "sleep deprived" is going a night or two without. :lol: But seriously, the girls all plotted it together. Hisao rejected all of them , man. Isn'...

I didn't you can get high on sleep deprivation

You certainly can… see here.

He's weird and detached in both routes, but I gained a little more appreciation for his subduedness after encountering Jigoro. Little more character depth does wonders for sympathy. That's why I shake my head every time I see a fast-forward-fanfic where Hideaki turns out to be a manly-man stud. Kin...

For someone who claims not to have her own story, I find Misha's story to be the most interesting of the lot. Yes, it's bittersweet. Then again, so is chocolate -- so bittersweet is not all bad. I've always wondered what makes a story interesting. In Misha's case, what I've done, for good or ill, i...

In general, my experience of life online over the last few decades always seems to come back to this.

My favourite side character, incidentally, is Mutou. He's uncannily like me.

This is the sixth part of Misha's arc in 'After the Dream', my post-Lilly-neutral-end mosaic. It's not easy to follow Misha's very non-linear musings; this piece starts in 2028 and then goes elsewhen. The main event in this part takes place just before this part of Lilly's arc. However, more about ...

Visiting Emi's father: While I won't deny that her bad ending left an awful feeling for me as well, this scene just seemed to hold so much more power. The way she finally gets herself to start opening up, and followed by Hisao's small speech he gives afterwards as Emi's crying, just really struck a...

I'm lying in bed and looking up at the ceiling. It's been a bad night and being racked with uncomfortable coughing fits is but the least of it. Getting up to dispose of the product of said fits is another pain. Then I feel a corner of my mattress sag. "Wahaha, author-san!~" Groan. Not her again. "Yo...

I guess the answer would likely be all of them, based on past history. But I did end up with Shizune—or someone a lot like her. :) Well aren't you a lucky ducky? He must have his own SwaggaVest™. *grin* well, that was when I was seventeen, and I've now been with 'Shizune' a lot longer than that.
