Act 1-B: A Textbook Breakfast pastebin: http://pastebin.com/kUL9UUTQ I'm forced awake by the blaring of my alarm clock. Only now do I realize that I forgot to take it off the early setting for running with Emi in the mornings. I wanted to at least get some extra sleep before running tonight. She wa...

Act 1-A: Exercise (cont.) pastebin: http://pastebin.com/p9Q5TZxX I fell asleep. For how long? What time is it? I'm feeling a little lightheaded, and I keep blinking compulsively. Pushing the curtain aside, I squint my eyes against the unfiltered light pouring in from the window. The texture of the ...

Introduction Hello. I go by many names. On these forums, DaGarver works just fine. Steam and 4chan know me as Garver. I've been writing for the Katawa Shoujo community for a little over 4 months now, doing a number of one shots and a pair of epilogues, just to practice the craft and become a better...

Some wonderful anon posted this in KSG 700. I wanted to share.

Here's to you, anon. For giving me the greatest feeling in the world: realizing that something you created had an impact on someone.

Oh, hey, Hearts updated.

Wait. Hearts updated.

*reads*

...Damn you. These feels. That's what I want in an ending. Bravo, sir, bravo.

...if I was looking for a woman who wouldn't be a good mother, I would not be married to this woman. Why would anyone explicitly look for a woman who wouldn't be a good mother? Not everyone cares to have children. Some people get married just for the shared health benefits and tax breaks. In that c...

...dammit, I made an OC that I actually care about. Part three. Harmonious pastebin: http://pastebin.com/YDu9b6ee To say that it's been cold outside recently is an understatement. But that's to be expected. It's mid-February, after all. The snow just keeps falling, for hours and even days. Sometime...

Very nicely done. Your Shizune is adorable, and I love how playful she and Hisao are together. Also, Claire de Lune is probably my favorite classical song. :3 Keep writing~! The playfulness is intended. It's how they act in the few scenes they have alone. They banter, are sarcastic with each other,...

This is based on an idea I had a week or so ago, I just haven't had the time to write it out. It's meant to be another injection into the story (much like "Shine on You"), this time in Act 3, during their time at Shizune's house. There is a musical scene. A link will be provided in the te...

Gonna be honest, didn't like this one. The mature content felt rather forced. I'm also not a fan of the mature content in general (the concept, not necessarily the way you wrote it). Just never appealed to me.

I want to strangle whoever is teaching people to place dialogue completely separate from the prose, floating on a line by itself with no direction, description or adverbs. So... us? :( Well technically it's not our fault, exactly, but that's an obvious staple of VNs, and it more than tends to get i...

That was beautiful. I suspected Hisao would be there to make it a happy ending, but you did a great job conveying the mood. It was difficult getting that across. Conveying the depression without sounding overly repetitive. Thankfully, there's a lot of room for Shizune to have regrets about things s...

I wrote this one last night in Steam, line by line. Got some good reactions from it, and I wanted to share. It's fairly short, one of the shorter ones I've done in recent memory. A Long December pastebin: http://pastebin.com/fCgXvMD8 December in southern Japan proves to be cold and wet. It doesn't ...

Lo and behold, a month later, I actually fulfill that request for an epilogue. Granted pastebin: http://pastebin.com/RSJea00s For Banda and YFA, because they actually f***ing asked for it “Come on, let's go!” Aki's voice rings through the air, bright and luminous. Hanako and I are following behind ...

Part of my confusion was the mention of Hisao having lunch on the roof with Emi & Rin. I don't think that happens if you're on Shizune's path. But that's a minor continuity error. I think it happens regardless of who's path you're on, just to establish Emi and Rin as friends. Even if it doesn't...
