I wonder how would A feels about if the MC keeps forgetting who they are every time they met?

HELP THAT WOULD BE SO FUNNY

I could imagine A thinking "Oh, they're just joking around. Nobody could would ever forget me of all people." And then MC does, and they're like

This would be even funnier with an MC who isn't really known for having memory problems or anything of the sort. Imagine someone who gets thrown into a new, unfamiliar, and dangerous world. Who can retain a surprising amount of new information, but for some reason, a disturbing blonde who happens to be their blood rival isn't memorable enough to them? Comedy gold.

GG&G: The Canary Sings Again I

"Teach me." You stepped forward, feeling the weight of your words settle between you two. It was like a ring of dust clouded the room, making the other's intentions appear under the veil of a thick hazy shadow. H's gaze hardens. "You know I can't.'' "Can't, or won't?" They stiffened, unacquainted with your sudden shift in tone. A bout of what felt like otherworldly possession. But they didn't let a trace of fear reach their eyes. "It's not up to me, [Chosen Title/Surname]." [Tone and Rest of Dialogue Changes Depending on Choice] "Learning how to use a revolver won't make you obsolete..."

So what is it about MC that A hates so much?

To keep it short and non-spoilery, their very existence. It poses a threat to their legacy, at least, that's what they've been told growing up. It's not path-specific in that A will automatically despise MC regardless of their personality.

Hi updating you on the situation in case you wanted to use dashingdon

Warn others if possible -sarah

Tysm for letting me know anon!! I wasn't planning on using Dashington, but for any other IF writers out there who are, I think there's a post about CogDemos(?) and how to transfer your work to that platform. I'll try to find and reblog that post!

completely random question here

when playing ifs, do you tend to have a set of names that have sort of set personalities, at least at the start? (wonderin if im weird or weird in a group of other weird friendos)

Oooh I love completely random questions!! I wish I could give a concise answer, but I literally don't walk through life doing things in a way that is clear and efficient so hopefully this answer doesn't lose anyone 😭

In the case of playing IFs, it truly depends for me. it usually goes one of two ways for me: the name I want to choose IMMEDIATELY comes to mind... or I take three to four business names to choose a name as I stare at my many tabs open on my desktop oops 😭 ATOC, for instance, is the first IF I played from Tumblr and luckily the writer linked a bunch of places for name ideas that are regionally accurate which was super helpful <3 There's a lot of pressure for me to have THE perfect name because I usually only play with one MC and then slap as many traits as possible onto them, even if it's not possible in the confines of the game (ex: in TBOTYG, I gave my MC more extracurriculars and overpowered them instead of distributing those traits evenly amongst multiple MCs because it's easier for me to fixate over one MC instead of constantly thinking about multiple MCs out of fear I would break myself)

I have a full OC/MC lore doc with a section that includes names I like and organized by certain factors (and a Pinterest board!) so if I can't think of a name, I don't like the preset name options given, or there are no preset options, I just go there. If I have one of those instant name ideas that were waiting to be used, I immediately jot that down, so it won't be reused.

Now to actually ANSWER your question 😭 the name comes to me after I figure out what type of character I want to play as (or what would "canonically" make sense). I do this by looking at the stat options and the context of the game to see what makes the most sense or is the most interesting to play as. For some IFs, it makes more sense to be a sweet genuine character and for others, it may make more sense to play as someone more cunning and ruthless, so that alone instantly helps me narrow down the name I choose because not all names exude the same vibes. Basically for me, the vibe of the MC would come first and that determines the name

Cooking several MCs as we speak... For now I have a clearer image of my A-romancer MC— a total sweetheart, that one, who smiles and laughs freely even under the pressure of fame. A causes her to have heart palpitations, though. If they dare to flirt with her she'll become horribly flustered. Pretends they don't affect her at all (and fails miserably).

Anon you have no idea how 🥺🥺 I feel whenever someone mentions creating MCs for GG&G IT GETS ME SO EXCITED!! Let alone multiple MCs like eek!! *ahem* Your A-romancer MC sounds like the epitome of the America's Sweetheart path omfg I want to be friends with her ASAP and protect her from the horrors! She's such a mood imfao I would get flustered if someone like A looked my way, don't even get me started on flirting I-
