The guys I've dated first in each ikemen game I've played so far

I guess I have "a type"

[maladaptivedaydreamsx]

May I ask who the pretty guy is in your profile banner?

Absolutely you may! Your layout is super cute btw, that Toya pic is so precious 💕💞

(I'll answer for both layouts in case anyone else was curious)

Mobile: Luka Clemence from Ikerev (banner), Silvio Ricci from Ikepri (icon).

Desktop: Marius von Hagen from Tears of Themis (banner), Luka Clemence (side icon).

Yooooooooo!!!!!! Rayvis is SAVAGE!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[arriettycrawford]

Chapter 8 is now up!

[misty-moth]

Ikepri: Yves! He started my whole craze so I love him for that… though I’ve discovered tsundere isn’t really my favorite 😅 I’m fond of them all, though, and Yves has a special place in my heart.

Ikevamp: Arthur! I downloaded ikevamp second since I adore vampires and had liked ikepri the few days I’d played at that point. And I mean, come ooon, that is my love. My sweet. My darling. My handsome baby boi snookums~ 💋💋💋

Ikerev: Loki! It’s true that Luka ended up being my fave, but Loki is still way up there. He’s synonymous with the game for me. (I also downloaded and tried MidCin around this time, but the checkpoints were a liiittle too high for me 🥲)

Ikesen: Yukimura! This one I was the most off-the-mark with 😅 I was drawn to him first when reading the prologue, but as I played I was worried ikesen wasn’t really for me… but I’m glad I stuck around, as it’s now my favorite game in the series. I just love Yuki as a bro, ya know? An irreplaceable side character 😭

Ikevil: Harri/William! I know this one is new, but I’m adding it in 👀 I tried out Harri first, but needed a more villainous villain to get me into the game… aka William. Now I love them both ☺️

[ythmir-writes]

it’s probably been done but lemme just add to it so here we go

SUITORS AND sort ofmaybe HELPING YOU STUDY

right.

Leo Crawford - being an actual, living and breathing encyclopedia, Leo is the person you want for objective type questions. Great help when it comes to last minute tips since he can give answers to random questions popping in your head. Probably can win gameshows back to back but doesn’t want the publicity. Can’t remember the distance to the sun? When exactly was it that Carthage got burned? That very specific provision of the tax law regarding exemptions given to corporations employing people with disabilities? He knows it all, and then some. Helps you make flashcards for better memory skills. THE PERSON YOU WANT TO STAY UP LATE WITH because srsly Leo get some sleep. The person everyone goes to after exams so he makes it a point to finish early and escape. Don’t ask how he remembers so much information in his head; he’ll quiz you and you might get distracted because with every wrong answer, you owe him a kiss 

Louis Howard - best study buddy ever because he calms down your nerves. You see him poring over the materials and all you can think of is that must be how gods look at sacred texts. That, and whenever you can’t understand something he explains it in a way that makes it easily understandable (or is it because of his voice?) Motivates you always to give 100 percent in everything because his very existence is inspiring. Almost always ready to go with you to a cafe to study. Avoids the library like the plague (because too many students) Sends you motivational quotes over social media. Probably snacks on healthy food and gives you some because they say it helps. Unfortunately, HE IS NOT the one you want to sit next to when it’s actually exams. Chiller than the airconditioning that’s making you sweat. Doesn’t even sweat even when answering ridiculously long math questions. Amazing.

Sid - He’s almost always in your face but conveniently disappears whenever you’re in study mode. As a matter of fact, almost completely leaves you alone whenever you’re at your desk, except to check on you that you aren’t forgetting to eat or drink or relax. Actually quite nurturing when hell week is just around the corner. Makes a wicked cocktail that he swears doesn’t contain uppers but you’re very very focused after a good night sleep. Very prone to placing random snacks on your table which may also contain random sample questions to help you prepare. Scoffs at you when you feel down because you haven’t finished reviewing - and the next day suddenly a summary of important points is at your table waiting to be read. ABSOLUTELY THE PERSON you want to approach if you want materials - whatever those materials may be: annotated notes from last year’s valedictorian, powerpoint presentations from a professor who doesn’t want his laptop touched, sample exams and suggested answers dating back to 20 years ago, that one book your professor swears by but has gotten out of print? He’s got you covered. 

Giles Christophe - Probably will scold you a bit for not sticking to a study schedule but will help you cram (not recommended). Even in this AU, it is very much discouraged to have him help you cram because you feel like your brain is going to explode with the info overload. BUT has notes for everything. Everything. The entire textbook has been annotated by him. IT IS A MESS tho. No sentence was left unhighlighted. Even has notes of his own notes. Has notes of other people’s notes. Has notes for professor’s notes even, with scribbled emojis and recommendations on how to improve them. Gives you very good sample questions that feel like they’ve been plucked straight from national exams. The kind of well-crafted questions that you hate because it took you 30 mins to answer each bloody hypothetical problem, but will be grateful for because it was a really good question and it appeared in the exams - whaaaaa? YES GILES HAS 90% ACCURACY at predicting questions it’s infuriating and also super helpful for practice tests. Sometimes you wonder how he’s able to do it. Has an annoying (but super convenient)  way of knowing exactly what the teacher wants to read on the essay questions since he gets near perfect points for everything and he didn’t even get the answer right and you kindofhateithimforit. 

Byron Wagner - study? what study? Or rather, when is Byron bloody Wagner not studying?? What we call study is actually leisure for him - have you seen him do anything except read and stare at the stars communicating with the Elder GOds? NOPE. The person you want to stick with at the VERY BEGINNING OF THE SEMESTER because his work ethic will put you to shame. The kind of student you wished you were, which helps you get motivated and also maybe partially depressed; because can he please tone down on the prodigy aura? And what do you mean you didn’t even highlight your books?? Engages in long hours of discussion with Leo about certain topics; probably tag-teams with Leo and Giles to debate with professors too. Has a certain knack of breaking down difficult theories into bite-sized chewable paragraphs. That, and he never shoves it in your face that you should do better (take a hint, Giles) Srsly. Stick with him to the very bitter end. Will splurge and treat you when you show him how much you’ve improved. Will still splurge even if you didn’t. Byron is happy you’re trying and believes all effort will bear fruit.

Nico Meier - very very very enthusiastic when you declared that it’s start of hellweek and you need to get down and dirty. Did not actually get the memo that you meant down and dirty with academics. Was very confused when you showed up in PJs with stacks of papers you ordered from Sid. Is constantly hovering to tell you you need to take a break. Always volunteers to make you tea and snacks. Helps you shopping for stationery, pens, sticky-notes - all the ammunition you need for studying because he knows all the sweet spots: thrift stores, quaint coffeeshops to spend 12 hours in, 24 hour hobbyshops that get quiet past midnight so you can hole up in a room without a bed. Very very very helpful in everything sans the actual studying because he’s actually a very loud learner: memorizes things out loud, has hilarious/scandalous mnemonics for every goddamn enumeration there is, listens to recorded lectures without moving a muscle; sends you memes in the middle of the night about how time will pass but WILL YOU??? You study with him and you’ll end up laughing how he comes up with all the fun. It’s hellweek, you should be crying but Nico just knows how to cheer you up to your core. 

Albert Bruckhardt - went to seminars on how to curate schedules and has an ENTIRE MASTERPLAN dedicated to helping you ace the exam. Ohboy, get ready to have your entire life study schedule re-arranged for the sake of the coveted passing grades. Leaves you wondering how little you know of time management and your own schedule. Is very strict during study sessions, and knows you have a soft spot when he smiles and uses it against you thesneakylittle . HAS APPS FOR EVERYTHING. AN EMBODIMENT OF what is good in studyblr community. Doesn’t take it too seriously if it took you extra hours before being able to finish a review? No problemo, Al’s already got a plan B. And C. And D. Seriously, this man can run a multi-billion corporation on his own.  You learn the meaning of preparation, and he’s living the lifestyle. After the exams, you feel like you’ve fundamentally changed as a person godbless

Robert Branche - heavensent because he’s tutored you before and knows your strengths and weakness. That, and his part-time job as a tutor has helped honed his teaching skills to an art form. Whenever he’s tutoring you, you feel like you’ve just enrolled in another academy all of a sudden. Patient. Kind. Understanding. Knows how to push you without pushing too hard because he knows you’ve already got enough on your plate and just wants to be supportive. Leaves random handwritten messages in your notes to help you smile. Somehow knows whenever you’re in a slump and listens as you rant AND GIVES YOU good advice too. Makes sure none of the younger boys interrupt or get in your way when you’re on study-mode. ACTUALLY ADMITS things when he doesn’t know them and makes it a point that both of you learn together but those instances are far and few in-between. You know Robert is on the top of his class but the question is, you’ve never actually seen Robert hit the books since he’s almost always at the art club. HOW????? 

Alyn Crawford - the only sane person in the entire world whom you feel like you connect with because both of you are normal compared to the eight other men. He’s got acads troubles just like you do - I mean it’s not because he’s more inclined to home economics or because he’s not as smart but it’s just that he cannot be bothered. HAS A SURPRISING LAZY SIDE when it comes to acads. He’s like your comrade and the academics are the Enemy. STILL VERY SUPPORTIVE. Will listen to you ramble because he knows you learn better when you try to explain things to other people - and please he’d really rather you explain it to him than to anyone else. Loves cooking for you whenever both of you are up for a long night. Loves cooking for you, just because. His coffee is not as good as his twin’s but hey, it’ll do and seriously, with the two of you throwing questions at each other, staying awake is the least of your worries. Like his twin, Alyn loves contests and that’s what makes studying with him unique. For every wrong answer, a household chore is gonna fall on your shoulders. That or a set of push-ups or shooting hoops. Because physical activity helps memory?? PLEASE. You’re skeptical but Alyn isn’t backing down and hubris isn’t letting you back away either. 60% of the time both of you are goofing off and Leo and Louis act as referees, shouting sample questions from Sid and Giles at the sidelines; until Giles calls all of you over because guys, you’re not getting any studying done. AT ALL.

Prologue 1/3 Not a Fairy Godmother

We’re all pretty agreed Wysteria is fantasy France, right? Right… I’m always thinking too much about worldbuilding, so I got the idea in my head that the lower classes in Wysteria have more pronounced French accents. The nobility would be speaking with more proper English accents, probably because I’ve already headcanoned that Wysteria was colonized by a fantasy England in its history. Also this isn’t going to be fantasy, I’m using ‘witch’ more in the folk sense.

Very open to critique, dont worry about being nice to me lol. More boys once I get into the midcin prologue proper, and I'm going to start writing Louis' route first. POVs will change up part to part based on how I feel

Loretta Vachon, an adult woman of indeterminate age, indeterminate origin but confirmed Wysterian citizenship, and indeterminate occupation. Anything prior to her arrival in the very outskirts of the city around the palace was not entirely clear. But what information they did have from neighbors and several days of observation by palace spies was consistent. Regarded as a witch or diviner by some, Giles thought ‘herbalist’ or something along those lines was likely more accurate. She was reported as trustworthy, sometimes more than generous or forgiving in her services and repayments, rude and blunt more often than not.

The address in her name didn’t appear to be any kind of storefront, a narrow little home with two floors. Giles was sure it was alright to walk through the door though, even without a sign. A bell on the inside rang as he did.

“Just a moment,” A voice called but then shouted, “‘ey!”

There was a bang and clustered, skittering sound as two chickens ran up the narrow hall from further in the house.

“Open the door for them, would you?” That voice called again.

Giles hesitated to let them out into the street, but the bell rang again and off they went. When he turned around she was standing in the doorway to the hall, so clearly appraising him before he had the chance to appraise her first. She was as described, maybe smaller than he had thought. Her long ashy brown hair was cut unevenly, with two mismatched lengths touching her cheeks in different places. She might have been beautiful, he surmised, with some refinement.

“If you are here from the tax office, you can see it is as I have told you before. I do not have proper signage, so the property cannot be registered as a business.”

She approached him with her arms out like she was herding him out the door, “So I don’t owe you any more money this year, goodbye,”

A lot of refinement. Though a strong will was exactly what was needed, and it wasn’t something he could teach. The way she spoke would need work as well. Articulate as she was, she spoke in the same accent as much of the Wysterian working class. She didn’t pronounce her h’s at all and her words blended together too much.

“I’m not from any tax office. You’re Loretta Vochan, yes?”

“Who’s asking?” She asked, eyeing him suspiciously again.

He bowed to her, practiced and polite, and answered, “Giles Christophe, Chamberlain.”

Her black eyes went wide as she looked at his face, brows shot up. He couldn’t help smiling a bit at that expression. Just then the door opened behind Giles, and a man with graying hair entered.

“Lettie,” He started, then noticed Giles almost in the doorway. 

“Mssr. Reynolds, I have your mix ready.” Loretta turned on her heel into the other room. 

Through the large open doorway Giles could see a mess of vials, small plants, jars of bones, little silver blades and tools across a workspace. She disappeared into another side room and returned with a jar of bright orange liquid with what almost looked like pulp in it.

“Shake it twice a day or it will get stuck at the bottom.” She said with an air of reminding him.

He smiled and nodded, but also eyed Giles with something like suspicion. He lingered there for a moment after taking the jar, like he didn’t want to leave them alone. Loretta turned her back on them again as she said,

“Have a good day, Mssr. Reynolds.” and reentered the work room.

He left with no mention of repayment between either of them. Loretta faced Giles as she stood at the table in the center of the work room. Despite the myriad of blades around her she took a small knife from her apron and began chopping herbs as if they had offended her.

“Why is the Chamberlain in my home?” She asked slowly.

“To give you this,” He took the envelope from his coat pocket and entered the work room, holding it out to her.

She put the knife down, her lips twisted in an unsure pout. Before she could turn the paper over to read it, the door burst open again. Two boys came running into the house, darting around the furniture and playing tag.

“‘Ey!” She shouted again, thrusting the envelope onto the table roughly and smearing it in green moisture from the chopped herbs. Loretta hastened into the living room as one of them jumped over her coffee table, “What do you think this is? Out!”

She was throwing pebbles and little debris from her apron pockets at them, but the boys just laughed and ran out the door. They didn’t look afraid of any witch. A woman came in a moment after them looking haggard, 

“I’m sorry Lettie,”

“It’s fine,” Loretta sighed, taking a basket of bread and pastries from the woman.

“But that little charm you gave Roger worked, he's finally slept through the night the past two weeks.”

Outside they could all hear the boys laughing, followed by a sort of scream accompanied by the sounds of chickens squawking.

“How fortunate.” Loretta said flatly. “You should consider a plant for his bedroom.”

This woman hesitated to leave as well as she looked over Giles. He was careful to dress as modestly as his wardrobe allowed, but it was hard not to stand out. But when Loretta turned her back again and bid the woman goodbye with a finality, they were alone again.

“The people seem rather wary to leave me alone with you. Why is that?”

“They’re more wary that you found the place at all.” She said offhandedly, turning the envelope over again and reading its contents. Her brows creased further and further down, lip curling more as she read the short contents.

“What?” She gaped, as if the paper had spoken a different language to her. “Who is giving me this?”

“I am.”

That incredulous look was turned at him. “Why the hell would you do that?”

Again he found it hard not to smile a little. “I was able to find the store, so that means I need something from you. That’s how it works, right?”

She didn’t answer.

“So my request is that you come to the ball. Find me there.”

She gave a long, hard look between Giles and the invitation. “I do charge, you know. I take bread from the villagers, but you have to pay coin.”

“Coin won’t be an issue for you, rest assured.” Giles smiled again.

Ooh I've got quite a couple! Here's my list:

•Gilbert (IkePri) and Byron (MidCin): both are gothic eye patch rulers of the enemy kingdom, with very similar upbringings.

•Rio (IkePri) and Nico (MidCin): the cutest and sweetest butlers!

•Yves (IkePri), Luka (IkeRev), and Alyn (MidCin): the culinary masterpieces that that trio would create. It would send your tastebuds to heaven.

•Licht & Nokto (IkePri) and Alyn & Leo (MidCin): let's have twins meet other twins! Both have one very serious and very skilled swordsman twin and one flirty playboy (but still pretty smart) twin. Bonus that they all have red eyes and very tragic pasts.

•Yves (IkePri), Luka (IkeRev), and Isaac (IkeVamp): this is more of my personal reasons lol I need to see these shy, awkward, sweet boys together.

•Sariel (IkePri) and Giles (MidCin): both hold high positions in their respective courts and were close to their former kings. And both use the carrot-and-stick method.

•Silvio (IkePri) and Sid (MidCin): I feel like those two would get along well

•Comte (IkeVamp), Sirius (IkeRev), and Sariel (IkePri): let's have the parents meet lol

•Napoleon (IkeVamp) and Leon (IkePri): sweet, sleepy boys who protect those they love

•Yves (IkePri), Jonah (IkeRev), Louis (MidCin): let's have this beautiful trio meet

•Kyle (IkeRev) and Jin (IkePri): they could make good drinking buddies. Plus they both really care about those around them.

And that's all I can think of so far! There's probably more that I think of, but can't remember at the moment.

Which two Ikeseries characters from different games would you like to see interact?

[kiera-anne-in-wonderland]

Dear seller on ebay that included a ton of free badges and acrylic stands of Kennyo from IkeSen and Robert from MidCin,

I can probably guess that you couldn't sell them to other people so this was your way of getting rid of unmoveable items. BUT!!! Jokes on you *leans into mic* Kennyo and Robert are two of my favorites and if you had listed the acrylic stands I would have bought them.

Sincerely, Keira Anne

PS: THANK YOU SO MUCH THOUGH!!! ❤
