choices murder mystery where you are the murderer and the side characters + love interests have to figure out who killed the victim, and there could be 2-3 different endings depending on how good you are at hiding clues

When you think about it, all the events of It Lives in the Woods could have been prevented if the kids’ shitty parents had paid more attention and didn’t let their 7-9 year old children go gallivanting around in the woods by themselves.

Commission I did for @wordholic recently, thank you so much for commissioning me and this was a lot of fun to draw. A true blast from the past drawing ILITW fan art again 🫶

[choicesmcappreciationweek]

Hello and be welcome to the Choices MC Appreciation Week of 2025! Years ago, user beaumontbash created this wonderful event where we had the opportunity to gush and show off about the wonderful and rich MCs in the fandom, and I have decided to bring back this awesome tradition!

Before I give you the prompts, here's some ground rules and things to have in mind during the event:

• You aren't obligated to post for every day! You can post any day you feel like

•The MC doesn't have to be yours

• OCs are welcome and encouraged!

•This event is MC-OC centric, and while a mention of LIs and other characters is welcome, please focus on the MCs

• Everything is welcome! From a screenshot of your MC and some fun facts, to meta and art and fanfiction!

• Posting about your friend/mutual's MCs is counted as an entry and highly encouraged!!!

• Be kind and respectful to one another. MC/OC and user bashing is extrictly prohibited

• Remember to have fun and don't be afraid to check the tag #choicesmcaw25 to see more OCs and MCs!

And now, onto the prompts...

It Lives in the Woods(Fanart)

It should be a crime we didn’t get to romance Noah😒

[polterwasteist]

I just finished reading It Lives in the Woods

[still-a-morosexual-help]

It lives book 3 MC's main priority may be finding out answers about what's going on with themself but their Second priority is finding out whether noah and book 1 MC are fucking or if they're just incredibly weird about each other

Book 3 MC every few chapters: so are those two dating or are they just platonically obsessed? Is this a monsterfucker situation or is being willing to get stuck in a parallel void dimesion for eternity on the slim-to-none chance of being able to resurrect the other (who died for them) just a normal thing they do?

[niaerinisms]

Noah/MC are like.... you will never understand what I've been through. You're the only person who can truly understand me. You've hurt me in the past. I've hurt you and I don't think that's something I can ever make up for. A part of me despises you. All of me loves you. You're the embodiment of everything I've lost, everything I could've had. Being near you is unbearable and seeing you brings back all all the hurt that I've tried to bury for years. Being with you slowly heals my fractured heart. We're stuck in our pasts. We'll never go back to the way we once were, to the people we once were. We're best friends and strangers. We're not lovers, we're more and less. You're my salvation. I don't want salvation, I just want you. I doomed you. I'll crawl through hell to save you. Guilt consumes you, for those you've been unable to save and I recognize myself in you, yet it was I, who couldn't save you in the end/who was but another person you weren't able to save. My fate is at your hands. You're my/I'm your judge, jury and executioner. You let me live and it was the most beautiful and precious thing to me. You took away my chance at death, and what it entailed, and it hurt more than anything I have ever experienced. Your selflessness borders on selfishness. You put me over yourself and I'll never be able to forgive myself for that. We've crossed the boundaries of life and death for each other. I find solace in you. You're made up broken pieces that could never be put together properly but so am I. The unmendable pieces that we're made of can never be fixed but maybe we can create something new with them together. I love you unconditionally. My love for you is heavily built upon my yearning for what I've lost. My love for you is ever-changing and ever-shifting and it has become something purely for you. I love you.

Tumblr Blog Commissions Info

1- When did you start playing Choices? What was the first book you played? 

2017. Most Wanted.

2- When and why did you join Choices fandom?

In 2023, after playing Blades 2. I spent years without playing Choices, but this book really inspired me to create some art, and I began interacting with the fandom after that. 

3- How did you pick your blog name?

It’s a combination of my nickname, Mavi, which is short for Maria Vitória, and “draws”, since this is (mostly) an art blog.

4- Pull up the first post in your archive, and tell us about it!  

It's a drawing of the main characters and my MC from an interactive fiction called Keeper of the Sun and Moon (@keeperofthesunandmoon), which was my first digital drawing ever. I was fascinated with this IF and wanted to share how I envisioned these characters.

5- Do you write fanfiction, create fan art, or are you one of those really gifted people who do both? 

I create fan art.

6- How long have you been creating for Choices and for any other fandoms?

I’ve been creating for Choices since late 2023, and for other fandoms (such as KOTSAM, Golden and TWC) since 2021.

7- What is your favorite Choices book, and what is your favorite Choices book to create for?

Honestly, I can’t pick just one—The Elementalists, Endless Summer, and It Lives in the Wood are some of my favorites. But Blades is definitely my favorite book to create for.

8- Share your first Choices fanfic or fan art that you posted with us. Do you still like it, or would you change it if you were creating it today?

I absolutely love this piece and wouldn’t change anything about it. This was the drawing that helped me establish my current art style.

9- What is your favorite piece of fiction or art that you created? 

This drawing of Tyril and my MC from Blades. I think it was the most emotional piece I’ve ever created and I’m really proud of it.

10- Do you have a fic/art that you didn’t expect to be well received, but it was? What about one you expected to do well but found it could use a little more love?

I think this drawing of f!UB from TWC did exceedingly well, and it was even noticed by the author—which I never ever ever expected.

I think this drawing of Valax could use a little more love.

11 - Do you ever recognize yourself in any of your MCs or in your writing?

I see a lot of myself in Theodora, my MC from Golden (an IF by @milaswriting). Her personality and internal struggles are very much my own, as well as her interests—like myself, she’s a law student (I’m currently an attorney) with a passion for fashion.

12 - What element of writing/art do you struggle with most?

Backgrounds. I’m much more comfortable drawing people.

13 - Do you have any neglected work you really want to finish?

Currently not.

14 - If someone you know in real life (who isn’t involved in fandoms) asked to see your work, would you let them? If yes, what would you show them first? 

I already showed my work to my boyfriend and many of my friends a long while ago. But if I had to pick an art piece to show them today, it would probably be this one —I’m really proud of how these wings turned out.

15 - Are there any writers (published authors and/or fanfic writers) who influenced your writing or art? Are there any artists that influence you?

I don’t really have an artist that inspired me. Most of my art style comes from my love of makeup.

16 - Which one of your creations would you like to see a fiction written about? 

This pre-battle moment from Blades 2 between Tyril and MC.

17- Do you write original fiction or create non-fandom art? 

No.

18-  What other hobbies do you have?

I really love makeup, and I consider myself to be a great makeup artist. I’m also a huge film nerd.

What PB REALLY means:

1: We think AI writing is better than humans writing, and we will only accept feedback that DOES NOT shit on AI.

2: We’re not doing the old books that YOU say deserves a sequel (like DS) and we’re NOT continuing IL because @itlivesproject did it first.

All in all (is all we are), we’re digging our own graves deeper and think you’re too stupid to believe in this propaganda that we’re doing great.

‘The only time PB handled a larger cast of characters and treating them equally regardless of whether they are an LI or not was in OG:HSS, It Lives in the woods, and endless summer.’

POST/CONFESSIONS DO NOT REFLECT THE MOD’S PERSONAL OPINIONS!

Remember when I made ILITW/Until Dawn crossover art, fun times. So why not revisit this AU with slightly better drawing skills this time around.

Also have watched a lot of Until Dawn let’s plays lately as well so that was part of it.

no Choices book is ever going to compare to the It Lives series
