My boy, Glenn, might not need to sustain himself with 'normal food' anymore, but he would LOVE to show off and treat his friends and lover to a feast with his cooking from time to time. So now, Glenn's Kitchen is officially open!

What would the ROs request for appetizer, main course and dessert? Also their Reactions to Flambé technique, please!

This is so charming - I like this Glenn already! Let the feast begin, haha, what a luxury.

The Physician would like something nice and fruity as an appetizer - she has a sweet tooth. As a main course, she would enjoy a good pie with more filling than crust, preferably some sort of poultry. For dessert, she would like to be surprised, as long as it's something sweet! She's very fond of chocolate in basically all forms, so that would sit right. As for the flambé technique, she would love to learn it. She used to be a good cook, but she's a bit rusty nowadays, so practice could be fun.

Aubrey would enjoy some sort of crab cocktail for an appetizer, and fish with white wine sauce and vegetables for a main course - he's fond of seafood. He would like a nougat praline for dessert. He would think the flambé technique looked nice, but wouldn't trust himself to even try learning it himself.

Vesa would enjoy some flavourful cheese as an appetizer, served with honey and walnuts perhaps. For a main course, she would like blue rare beef, served with some hot and spicy sauce, and some roasted vegetables. A piece of chocolate chili cake for dessert would be nice. She would absolutely love to watch the flambé technique, she would find it fun to look at.

Narciso would like some fancy cold cuts for an appetizer, and rare steak served with either a rich and creamy sauce or red wine sauce for a main course. The cook may pick something that goes well with it. For dessert, he would like a light yet creamy mousse. He would be pleased with the flambé technique - he always thought it looked nice and impressive.

Roswhen would like a light green salad as an appetizer. As for the main course, they would love to be surprised; 'perhaps you could cook me your signature dish? Something you're proud of, or means a lot to you.' They would enjoy a fruit salad drizzled with honey for dessert. They would find the flambé technique fun - impressive, they were unfamiliar with it!

Elan would like stuffed mushrooms as an appetizer, a flavourful and hearty stew for main course, and a cup of hot chocolate with cream for dessert. He would be impressed with the flambé technique, thinking it looked advanced and fancy.

Fervency sci-fi/cyberpunk AU where the Physician is a roboticist "curing" people by placing their consciousness into a robot body, something which is definitely illegal for an ordinary person not working for a specific company (and you can't really transfer someone's mind, only copy it, so a lot of people would argue it's immoral because you can't actually help anyone by doing this- only making a copy that can live happily while the original might be left to die)

Result from the Google Form (part 2/x)

Parasitical

Very interesting premise! You’re a cultist living in a behemoth’s carcass managing the fine line of living day-to-day and the unease of a commune straining under the seemingly all-seeing authority that governs it. And then certain characters arrive to explode that fine line into smithereens (naturally). Unfortunately this is how I found out author nuked their tumblr :( but the demo is still on

Lost Lambs

Murder-mystery whodunit but from the POV of the killer. You’re gearing up to join an Agatha Christie-like ensemble of cast, but before that: kill, learn about your past, and customize your skills and covers. Meet your partner in murder. UNFORTUNATELY INACTIVE but its Fun give it some love (and the author also!)

God-Cursed

Writing it has brought some much-needed light into my life, and I'd quite like to share that with others.

Fervency

Well first off, the creator is a mutual, so I have to rep. But also it's a (light) horror IF where you're turned into a monster and now have to contend with a strange hunger for flesh or blood while attending a masquerade. And there's bisexual vampires, and the only RO I've ever fallen for. :)

Stay?

yummy flavor text, so many posibilities, so many outcomes, time loops, too many of them, can you save them all? Its intriguing to connect the dots on each time loop, fascinating. You can even marry the RO! till death do us apart

One Knight Stand

Insane amount of choices that have big impact on the game!! Super fun and has a really compelling story.

[deepseamuse]

join us anon. Aubrey needs more partners!

Who's Aubrey btw? (the -unwell about this man-)

Aubrey is one of the companion ROs from a mature gothic horror interactive fiction in development called "Fervency" by @thisisnikocha .

My favourite little blorbo of a hedonist who paints with his victim's 🩸 🤭 My sweetest little macabre loving wolf. The apple of my undead eyes 💀 My insane lover in the after life *continues her incoherent ramblings*

Because there can't be too much cat ask 🐱

If the ROs are cats, what type of breed they will be? What will Cat!ROs personality be like?

Very correct, haha! My own Bacchus-cat agrees; she's rubbing against me as we speak.

I can see the Physician as a Bombay cat, because I image that she would be a panther-lookalike, and with a elefant and strong build at that. She would be curious, of course, curious and clever. One of those cats that impressed humans with how wise she somehow seemed.

When it comes to Aubrey, I got the suggestion from a dear mutual here, @deepseamuse , that he, if he were a cat, might be a California Spangled, and since I liked it, I will go with that. I like the idea of him being an experimental breed, at that. He would be playful and bitey, a hunter - if he was kept indoors he would love to chase toys - but he would be lazy, too, loving to curl up and just relax a good quantity of the day.

Vesa would be a Bengal cat. She would be playful, vocal, social, affectionate, and active. Very friendly, yet a bit wild in her attitude. She would definitely get the zoomies at night, and during the day, she would be such a lap cat.

Narciso would be a white Turkish Angora cat with a luxurious fur. He'd be elegant and chubby, like his human form, and it would take a while to earn his trust - he'd be one of those cats that people thought seemed standoffish - but if one had his trust, he would be an incredibly pleasant and mellow companion.

Roswhen would be a common domestic shorthair, a cute tabby. Orange, perhaps - I think they would like orange cats. They would be a fun and energetic cat, very sweet and friendly. They would like to hang out with cats and humans alike.

I can imagine Elan as a Maine Coon, since he would probably be large and fluffy as a cat. He would be a shy and timid cat, but incredibly sweet and faithful once one had earned his trust. He would like to sleep by his owner's feet to protect them during the night.

How would the ROs answer if mc tell them,

"Fate has dealt a cruel hand in my life, with its endless pain and tragedy. But I'm thankful nonetheless, because I found love, I found you."

The Physician: "I grieve to hear that your life has been one of so much pain and misery. I hope that I, and the love I wholeheartedly want to offer you, will act as a soothing balm whenever you need me."

Aubrey: "Life can be hard, no? And it can be full of joy, too. I hope the two of us will share whatever joys and hardships we meet on our way."

Vesa: "Darling, I will always be here for you. Don't you ever forget it. I'm externally grateful to have you in my life. Come, let me embrace you."

Narciso: "I feel similar, my sweet. I hope we can overcome hardship after hardship together."

Roswhen: "I'm so very thankful to be a part of your life. Just tell me when you need me, and I will be there for you. That, I promise, and don't ever hesitate to ask!"

Elan: "What can I say... Excuse me. I believe I'm a little bit... Oh, it's nothing bad, don't worry. A bit overwhelmed perhaps? I will collect myself soon... Let it be known, though, that I'm thankful, too. I never thought I would meet someone like you."

[fervency-if]

What would the RO think about MC with congenital insensitivity to pain (CID)?

The Physician would want to ask questions about it, because of her medical interest and curiosity, but she would do her best not to be insensitive; she wouldn't want to make them uncomfortable, she wouldn't want them to think she was prying.

Aubrey would find it quite fascinating, and would be interested in learning more about the subject.

Vesa would be very casual about it.

Narciso wouldn't ask anything about it unless the main character themselves started a conversation about the subject. He wouldn't want to ask anything too personal, in case they would be uncomfortable with it.

Roswhen would be mildly curious yet casual.

Elan would show some gentle concern.

[fervency-if]

ROs answer to MC telling them, "Only with you, I feel alive. Only with you, I found happiness."

The Physician: "It's a delightful feeling, isn't it? To feel truly alive, and have someone to share it with. I hope I can help you find even more reasons."

Aubrey: "Let us keep sharing the feeling, and let us make it grow even stronger. Let us grow happier and happier, and more and more alive, until nothing can hold us back."

Vesa: "I hope the world itself, and all its delights, will make you feel happy and alive, too, eventually, but I will be here for you along the way, darling - each and every step of it."

Narciso: "As much as your words worry me, I'm delighted to be in your life, and to have you in mine."

Roswhen: "I will never abandon you! I want to make the most out of our lives with you."

Elan: "It's been a while since I felt truly alive, myself, but now... Isn't it rather frightening? Yet wonderful. Which, too, is frightening."

Owl is cat with wings! I would DIE to uphold this belief!

Lol Jokes aside, how would the RO react if MC have a pet owl? What species of owl would be their favorite? 🦉

I can't disagree, haha! I do wonder if that's why it's my brother's favorite bird, since he is a cat lover too. Very charming question, in any case!

The Physician would love it so much - she adores birds, and owls are certainly not exceptions. She finds them very fascinating, and loves them as a symbol of wisdom as well. She would hope to befriend this delightful pet as soon as possible. It would be hard for her to pick a favorite kind of owl, but the has a special fondness for the great horned owl.

Aubrey would find it intriguing; he associates them with dark and eerie nights, and that's something he loves dearly. I think owls would be a favorite bird of his overall. He finds sooty owls most endearing.

Vesa would find it adorable - both the owl, and the fact that this main character has one as a pet. She didn't know that was possible. It would feel like a perfect pet for her dear friend/her beloved. She likes screech owls.

It would take a while for Narciso to get used to it - he likes the look of owls well enough, but someone to have one as pet is unfamiliar to him, and at first, he wouldn't want it to get too close. He finds snowy owls quite beautiful.

Roswhen would like to know all about this particular owl. Its habits, what it likes, and so on - they would be very curious. Their favourite kind of owl is tawny owl (called cat owl, or rather, kattuggla, in my native tongue, to continue the theme of cats with wings.)

Elan would find it quite interesting, even though his superstitious side would think about legends of owls as an omen - but like the Physician, he also associates them with wisdom. He likes barn owls the most.

Bacause your love for cats (especially the cutest little monster, Bacchus). I wonder, have you visited cat cafes before Niko? If you have, did you like it?

I love cat cafes myself, one near my area has good food and beverages, quite a collection of board games, and they also provide some interesting books about cats. Inside the cafe we can play with the cats with the toys provided, give them snacks, or just cuddle with the fluff ball. I swear my phone memory is so full with cat photos after that hehehe~... Anyway, the cat there act so sweetly and well behaved, not to mention it also act as a shelter! So i'm very fond of it personally.

Considering those things, How would the ROs think about having a date in a cat cafe if MC asked them? How would they spend their time there?

I certainly do love cats, yes, and my little monster have the most special place in my heart, hehe! Unfortunately I haven't visited a cat café (yet!) but I definitely want to - there aren't many here in Sweden, but a couple exist.

Aw, you're lucky to have one close to you, it sounds like such a delightful place! I, too, would have taken lots of photos if I visited one. It sounds so cosy, the cats seem like such darlings, and it's lovely that it works as a shelter as well. (It would be so hard for me not to want to adopt one, haha! Bacchus isn't exactly fond of fellow cats, so I don't know if I can get another one...) This was so nice to read, thank you for sharing!

As for your question:

The Physician would think it was a charming idea. She would treat it much like a regular date; eat and drink something nice, talk, relax... with the nice little addition with cats in the environment. If the place had board games, like the one you mentioned, she would gladly play games, too.

Aubrey would love it, but one shouldn't expect a romantic date, because he would be very focused on the cats - he would be so busy hanging out with them, so hopefully his partner would be the same so they didn't feel neglected!

Vesa would find it adorable, and do her best to focus on the cats, the main character, and the date aspect equally - so one minute she would play with a cat, next minute she would tell the main character how lovely they look, and the third she would make sure to properly enjoy a beverage. And so on.

Narciso would be a bit wary - is it really hygienic to have fluffy animals in the same room as one eats in...? The main character would need to reassured him that there wouldn't be any cat hair in the food. He would enjoy the sight of the cats from a distance, and if the main character liked playing/cuddling with then, he would find the sight endearing.

Roswhen would really like it - both because it sounds like an unusual and fun experience, and because they like animals. They would just try to have as much fun as possible, and make it nice, sweet, and memorable.

Elan would say yes, but hope it wasn't too crowded (with people, that is.) He would order something delicious to eat and try to relax (and hope that the cats liked him, because he would at least want to pet one - he really likes fluffy animals.)

I've been missing the reverse reincarnations AU so I want to ask how would the Reincarnated!RO react if they see the portrait painting of themself in a museum? One that MC painted in deep grief?

Oh, that takes me back, haha! (For newer followers; a while ago, I got some asks with 'what if'-scenarios regarding reincarnation, both about if the main character died and got reincarnated, or the 'reverse' one, where the love interests died and got reincarnated.)

The Physician would feel touched, but wistful. It would be a quietly emotional experience for her, and she wouldn't be able to stop thinking about it for quite some time.

Aubrey would be touched too, but proud (and very proud of the main character, too) - a bit smug, perhaps. The way the main character wanted to show him, and their own grief, to the world. He himself could never do that - if he created a portrait because of grief, he would keep it to himself, very private. He would appreciate this difference.

Vesa would find it tragically beautiful - but more beautiful than tragic. She would see it as a celebration of their time together, and she would be impressed by the main character displaying their vulnerability.

Narciso would feel conflicted. In a way, it would make him feel a bit exposed, and he wouldn't be able to relate to the fact that the main character wanted to expose their own grief like this.

Roswhen would find it beautiful and a bit surreal. They wouldn't be able to say anything for quite some time.

Elan would feel completely speechless, and incredibly emotional. He would almost have a difficult time looking at it, since his feelings would be so strong. It wouldn't be negative, though.

[fervency-if]

Since some brands of vampires must be invited first just for fun, which ros like to visit people spontaneously and which ones prefer invitation?

Vesa and Roswhen like to visit people spontaneously.

Elan and Narciso prefer to be invited first.

Aubrey and the Physician are fine with either.

ROs AND THE POTENTIAL ROs reaction to the age-old question... "Would you still love me if I was a worm?"

Aah, the question for the ages... I had replied to this question before, back when there were only The Physician, Aubrey, Vesa, and Narciso, tried to search for it, and...

...I don't know. I just thought it looked funny. Content-free for worm. But I did find it. In either case... From that certain post:

The Physician would giggle and say "worms are quite interesting creatures, aren't they? I do believe I would like you well enough."

Aubrey would raise an eyebrow and ask "what on earth are you talking about? Did you, per chance, have some liquor just now? Why didn't you tell me so; I would have loved to share a glass with you!"

Narciso would be quite amused, but reply in a very flat voice "I would never have gotten to know you in the first place if you were a worm." (And another thing: he does not like worms. He's squeamish.)

Vesa would laugh, poke the tip of the main character's nose, and say "of course I would!"

And the two other people from the Physician's path:

Roswhen would laugh and tell them that they would probably be an adorable worm. Oh, they very much prefer them as a human, but if? Yes, they would love them if they were a worm.

Elan would be a bit confused by the question, but it would make him chuckle, too. Why are they asking this? But he would love them. He would take good care of them and all. Yet... Please, don't transform into a worm if you can help it. It would feel awkward.

As for some upcoming ones and such, since you asked about potential love interests also:

Francesco would give them a smirk, a little bit open and pearly-teethed; "no. Of course I couldn't love a worm," before winking and taking the main character's hand, giving it a little kiss.

Bess would ask if it was a regular worm, or a more... human-like one. Human intelligence, and all that. Yes, she could love them if so, but she's very sorry to say that she wouldn't find her the least bit attractive anymore. How unfortunate.

Maryam would joke around, pretending to be shocked; "what are you trying to tell me? Have you been a worm all along? Or do you feel a worm-like transformation coming your way? This is worrisome!"

Bryars would sigh, shake his head, and put a hand upon his forehead in a most dramatic manner. "Ah! A worm? Will I, forever, be known as the lover of worms? Oh, so be it! I simply love you too much."

Lili would tell them that they would make sure to get themselves a garden with good soil, so their beloved worm could live well. Also, they would make themselves a scarecrow. Watch out for birds!

[fervency-if]

How would the ROs react if they caught MC staring at them with a serious look and if they asked why MC just straight up tell them "l'm just admiring the beauty of my love"???

The Physician would smile gently, and feel quite touched - they seem so sweet and sincere, what with this serious look on their face. 'You find me beautiful enough to admire in this manner, you say? It is an honour, my dear, to be admired by someone such as you.'

Aubrey would laugh a little; oh, so that's what they're doing? Admiring him? Now, that's quite flattering, even though he can feel a bit odd if it feels as if someone stares at him - particularly his face. But the reason they stated makes it more than fine - he will let them admire him as much as they wish. He certainly does enjoy feeling beautiful, and they're acting so lovable right now.

Vesa would smile widely yet kindly. 'Aren't you the sweetest? Perhaps my portrait should hang on the wall in the basement of the lounge. I'm happy to be admired, and especially by you. You're gorgeous, too, darling - and now I don't want to take my eyes off you.'

Narciso is very used to people admiring his beauty, but this is different - he would react to the sincerity and serious tone as well, and how they called him their love. It would make it all feel so much real and genuine, and he would be quite touched - almost flustered, even, but he would do his best to hide it. 'You may look, my sweet. Your beauty, too, is something to admire.'

Roswhen would smile widely and genuinely, and think aww - they would almost feel awkward, but in an amusing way. They simply aren't too used to gestures such as these, and it makes them very happy, but they wouldn't be entirely sure of what to say, more than telling their partner just how sweet and precious they are. After a while they may make some lighthearted joke; 'watch out, or I'll start to think I'm the most beautiful person in the land... Oh, after you, of course! I'll start to think I'm the second most beautiful person.'

Elan would definitely not know what to say, and it would make him feel touched and shy in equal manner. What he would want to do most of all in this situation would be to give them a warm embrace.

[fervency-if]

a common question is "what is your type??" a less common question is "what is the type of person who often have YOU as your type?" i ask the second one for the ROs! which typ e of eprson often flirted/was attracted to them ?? (you can answer it personally too if you like ;) curious)

There hasn't really been a pattern when it comes to the Physician.

People who were interested in Aubrey were often quite hedonistic.

Vesa has been popular among artsy people.

Narciso has been loved by music lovers; many are groupies after all.

Roswhen's lovers have been somewhat free-spirited.

Elan... Well... Going by people writing to me about their main characters, along with a playtest-fellow of my own... Gardeners?
