Flower Letters (Visual Novel)

Created by: Yamie_Es

Genre: Romance/Horror

If you've ever played Mine, this is made by the same creator. Flower Letters is a good improvement on Mine (at least the demo version, which is the one I played), in that it incorporates a lot more animations and visual elements in the story, as well as a point and click section which I thought was a nice touch. This is a r18 game though, so please keep in mind before playing this game. @minegamevn

The story starts out with the MC on a plane, texting their friend Damian. They haven't met each other in quite a while and they're excited to see him again. Upon landing, they are able to meet up, with Damian talking about how much he misses them. They end up going to a restaurant together and talking about their favorite animals, and getting a job before the MC gets a call and has to head home. Upon going home, we get to learn that the MC's mom has tragically passed a way through the point and click section and that the MC's dad is a writer, going away for long periods of time, something that the MC finds annoying and a mark of a bad dad (essentially along with insulting the MC). You can also choose the kind of flowers that the MC's mother liked, leading to the house smelling like it afterwards. Upon folding their clothes, the MC can either hang out with Damian first or go and greet the new neighbors.

Going to greet the neighbor first, the MC ends up face to face with Magnus, to which he immediately starts flirting with the MC. The MC can either flirt back or try to back off, either way Magnus will continue to flirt with them until they leave.

The store owner there will give the MC a quick math quiz to determine if they can get the job as a cashier. Regardless of if the MC fails or succeeds, Valentin will end up hiring them. The MC will walk to either Damian's place or their place, spooked by the sudden appearance of a person who seems to be following them (it seems to be Keith's silhouette).

If the MC decides to The MC arrives with Damian's sister greeting the MC and wanting them to stay over to hang out. Damian apologizes for it, though does seem to want the MC to stay over, to which the MC can decide.

If they decide to stay over, Damian's sister will be very happy, leading to them going to watch a movie together. His sister wants to watch a cartoon, which can lead to the MC being dismissive or encouraging her, with the only difference being Damian's reaction as they still end up watching. The two end up sleeping in the same bed afterwards, with Damian talking about his previous lover, and how they broke up, along with the fact that he was able to move on, having a crush on someone close by (aka the MC, not that the MC knows that). They wake up in the middle of the night, finding a note on the floor professing their love to the MC.

Similarly, going home will also lead to possibly seeing someone sneak into their room and finding the same note on their bed. Depending on the interaction, the MC will either think that it's their dad who left the note or Magnus, with the MC either getting annoyed that the dad would leave this on their bed or paranoid that Magnus might come into the room and proceeds to lock their doors.

I will say in general, compared to the Mine demo that I played (I have not played the full game yet, I admit), there is significant improvement on everything, from the art, to the animations, to the general writing and the more gameplay elements of it. The small things such as the clouds moving on the outdoor scenes to the blinking animation when the MC goes to sleep are both really nice, along with the more spooky parts of when assumable Keith comes in to the MC's room or when he's stalking us at the hallway. The UI is a nice touch too, leaning into more of the title of Flower Letter and the scenes where you can click on the flowers or click on the rooms do make it more interactive for a visual novel, so I'm happy they were able to put those elements in.

The story itself is pretty simple as most demos are, with the MC going to visit Damian after a long time. Personally what I do find the most interesting is Damian's relationship with his sister, since most of the time, we don't really get to see the yandere's other familiar relationships (other than parents), so it was nice seeing Damian and his sister interact with with the MC. We also get to see a bit of the MC's family life as well, seeing that their mother is dead, still seemingly haunted by some of their memories of her, with the scent in the house as well as the father, who seems to be pretty absentee and really into book writing, which is kind of fun. There's a bit of sexy time stuff with Magnus, if you'd like and it's kind of interesting seeing the MC's interactions contrasting when they are interested versus when they're not. I'm kind of curious to see what the job will be like later on that the MC takes on with Valentin, and if that will blossom into some sort of romance. I do like that we get to see previews of who I think is Keith from the other game, though I'm not sure if the two are the same MCs or even if Damian is a yandere. Probably, considering he is the character we see the most in the game.

Overall, I think a good start for the game. There are certainly some assets I really like about it like the point and click aspects as well as the other portions, so I'd like to see if we can see more of it in the future.

I like old school things. Picnics, phone calls, flowers, letters, dates, late night drives for nothing.

Things people call “corny” nowadays.

Having some feelings about Lucanis's personal storyline that I desperately feel like airing out.

And my feeling is that the game did his resolution so dirty.

While Lucanis isn't the only person who doesn't get what he wants out of his storyline (Taash and Bellara also don't! it happens!), I feel like he's the only companion who doesn't get to express his frustration at the outcome of it, and it saddens me greatly.

He never wanted to be the First Talon. He says so in the Wigmaker Job, and there is no indication that he changed his mind by the time of the Veilguard. By his own admission, Illario was also his only friend before he met Rook. The Murder of Crows leaves us with the confirmation that the man who was as close to him as brother conspired to have him killed for the position he never cared for, and we barely talk about it!

There is almost no post-quest discussion on what Lucanis feels about being the First Talon, except that he thinks Caterina will still be giving orders. Thinks, or hopes, maybe? It's not like he wants to be in that position. Perhaps it's easier for him to think Caterina will continue calling the shots, but I don't think that extrapolation can justify the way the end of his questline is handled.

The final quests of all companions focus on their current place in the world, and any frustrations they feel regarding the outcome of their journey. But not Lucanis's - it skirts around his feelings regarding Illario and his new job, giving more focus to his relationship with Spite. Which isn't bad, perhaps, but is indicative of a larger issue where Spite takes precedence over the storyline about Lucanis's relationship with his family that was started back in Tevinter Nights.

Idk man I just wish we got more out of the family angle. We could have got *so* much more.

choso x babysitter idea: Yuji forces Choso to propose to yn with a ring pop!

OHHH THIS IS SO CUTEE!!! You guys always have the cutest ideas (^ω^)

“Yuji, what are you doing over there? The candy is for later.” Choso sighs.

Yuji runs over to him and shoves a Ring Pop into his hands. “Here!”

“What’s this for?” Choso tilts his head at his little brother.

Yuji grins and looks at you. “For you guys to get married!”

You almost spit out your drink and your cheeks are instantly flushing. Choso’s just as red, maybe more.

“M-married?!”

“Yeah! Just pretend married, though, since it’s not a for real ring.” Yuji smiles and pushes Choso to you. “Okay! Say the thingy.”

“Propose?”

“Yeah, that word!”

You laugh a little and look at Choso, he sighs and goes along with Yuji’s game, getting onto one knee and taking your left hand. You blush as he clears his throat and looks up at you.

“…would you, uh… Ring Pop marry me?”

You giggle and nod, letting him put the Ring Pop onto your ring finger.

“Yayy! Now you’re Ring Pop married!” Yuji giggles.

Choso’s still on a knee and just staring at the floor, seemingly hiding his blush from you. You admire the “ring” and smile to Yuji.

“Think I should get a matching wedding outfit?”

“For the Ring Pop wedding?” Choso laughs a little when he’s more composed and standing again.

“Yeah! Can I be the flower girl?” Yuji giggles.

“Whattt? You don’t wanna walk me down the aisle, Yuji?” You smile.

“Wait! I wanna do that instead!”

You giggle and eventually go to your apartment. You can’t help but wonder if you’d actually marry Choso. Would you have Yuji walk you down the aisle? Little do you know, Choso’s thinking the same things.
