Re: Art assets for a small KS-related project
I'm still in search of people interested in helping out. The kind of art I'm looking for is the kind of thing pictured in one user's avatar here: http://ks.renai.us/download/file.php?avatar=5807_1328463046.gif I'd need between one and three pictures in that kind of low-res pixel style. (maybe just a...

Re: Sisterhood (Hanako Epilogue) (Completed)
Thanks. It makes me wonder if there's some sort of exercise or therapy that could help her stretch and make her damaged skin more flexible. Most burn victims have to go through stretching therapy where they have to learn how to regain use of their burned parts and it's apparantly excruciatingly pain...

Re: Sisterhood (Hanako Epilogue) (Completed)
Thanks. In KS itself, Hisao describes Hanako's scar tissue as feeling rough and slightly leathery and mentions during their first time that the scarred part of Hanako's body moves slightly different from the other part. Scar tissue is dryer and less supple than ordinary skin and doesn't stretch as w...

Re: That part about "comforting"
The alternative meaning of "to comfort" is probably a well-known euphemism in Japan. The sexual meaning of the word is older than WW2.

Re: Oh Lilly... what's wrong with me?
I kind of agree. Though there's probably psychiatric help available for the students with traumas, it's ultimately up to the students to develop a sense of acceptance of their condition. That said, Mutou, the nurse and even Yuuko go out of their way to instill that in Hisao. He's just a little slow ...

Re: Oh Lilly... what's wrong with me?
After that last stay in the hospital, it really shouldn't be needed for anyone to bug Hisao to improve his health. The guy should have plenty of motivation to make that move himself.

Re: Oh Lilly... what's wrong with me?
He does, but it's also because of his life style and him adopting a more passive attitude. He forgets his meds once or twice and since Lilly's life is so slow-paced, Hisao also tends to avoid the practice and workouts that the nurse prescribed.

Re: Oh Lilly... what's wrong with me?
Lilly does have a cell phone actually. Not only is she the one who gives Akira and Hanako Hisao's cell phone number, but in Hanako's route there's also a scene where the three are hanging out at the Shanghai and Lilly's called on her phone with the request to return to school and keep Shizune in che...

Re: Oh Lilly... what's wrong with me?
To me, it's only a better option if we're assuming a purely selfish POV for Lilly: I'll take what I can from this relationship while I can, enjoy the sex and intimacy, then get out and let the whole thing fall to pieces behind me when I'm safe and gone. To be fair, Hisao enjoys the sex and intimacy...

Re: Sisterhood (Hanako Epilogue) (Completed)
While the plot, characterisations, and so forth all worked well, I didn't like the dialogue. Too often, it felt stilted and unnatural - certainly not like the dialogue between 18-year-olds. You said that English isn't your native language, so that might be the issue. Or I could be alone, considerin...

Re: School before Yamaku
Heh, makes me wonder if Kenji was relatively normal until his first orgasm or if he was always a few cards short of a full deck.

Re: Oh Lilly... what's wrong with me?
Lilly does actually disclose things about herself at several points, like the talk she and Hisao have in the library where she mentions she's half-Scottish and she wants to become a teacher. There's also the talk she and Hisao have the morning after Hanako's party, where Lilly talks about her parent...

Re: School before Yamaku
Oh she's capable of giving a shit she just doesn't or at least she doesn't show giving any shits to anyone she doesn't know . I think the bolded part is key. Let's not forget Rin's extremely bad at expressing herself, so just because she doesn't show that she's affected by something doesn't mean sh...

Re: Oh Lilly... what's wrong with me?
That is at best speculation. In a storytelling sense it is probably, because this is the Lilly route, and Hanako's problems were not mean to be that much of a focus there. So Hanako would probably have been fine no matter what Lilly did. Even so, there are limits to what could be done with Hanako's...
