The Shadow Society characters! I really like them all, they're all so interesting ;; going for the blue daddy first time 👁️👁️

@carawenfiction I hope you like this 💖

[carawenfiction]

Hey Cara! Hope you’re enjoying yourself and feel good about all the progress you made on TSS, which is awesome. Anyway, my question is what the ROs where thinking up to and including their first kiss with MC, or in R and M’s cases’, what they are imagining their first kiss with MC will be like?

Heya! Thank you so much <3

A’s feelings are a bit tricky, because on one hand they feel some sense of triumph, but on the other they are developing feelings that they didn’t necessarily expect to have. Before the kiss, they only expected to feel a sense of immature victory (or well, they wouldn’t expect it to feel immature, I just personally think it’s immature lmao). The fact that they felt more is something they notice in that very moment, and they’re not sure what to do with that, even if they’re usually very sure of what they want.

For G, it’s something they’ve yearned to do a long time. Their mind was set on getting that kiss, so they kind of went for that without actually checking if the MC wanted it too. It was a selfish act fueled by their intense emotions; they didn’t use their head, like they tend to do in other situations. 

For Q, it was an odd moment. They had a task to carry out, and thus allowed their more feral side to come out in preparation, but another kind of yearning appeared in their mind when they came face to face with the MC. Because they were in that state of mind, they simply followed their feelings in that moment without considering the consequences.

M would have definitely wanted to share a kiss with the MC, if they weren’t held back by their guilt. In their mind, it’d be very soft and sweet, perhaps building up to something more passionate. But them feeling bad about the whole ordeal kind of prevents them from thinking about it too much.

R would probably try to imagine it (and then instantly regret it and try to deny it, because they’re R), but there’d be so many other thresholds for them to cross before even getting to a kiss. Realizing their feelings, sharing an intimate touch, getting to the point where they can accept that the MC feels the same way about them etc. Taking all of those things into account, as well as their own stubborn attitude, a kiss would be a thought they’d sooner push away than fully fantasize about at this point.

Sorry if there are any spelling errors or such, I’m a tad sleep deprived ajhfg. Thank you so much for the ask!

The Cinnamon Squad:

4 cinnamon rolls? - ✓

4 pairs of glowing eyes? (because why not) - ✓

is it dark enough? - ✓

a lot of glow and contrast added? - ✓

signed? - ✓

DONE

It was such fun to work on this and, surprisingly, I’m very happy with the result (which doesn’t happen very often :D ). It was like 2 weeks ago I found the interactive book The Shadow Society, and I couldn’t stop reading ever since! The characters are amazingly written, especially the main LIs  ↑ ↑ ↑ . So of course I had to make a fanart of them! ;) (sorry, Michael xD )

Thank you @carawenfiction for bringing us these beauties :D Can’t wait for the next book!

More Shadow Society shit because I’m interactive fiction trash

So back when her life was normal, Nat totally did hella yoga

Also, her and Michael become bffs, being the only humans in the group. Once they wrap their heads around all this, they totally get into shenanigans

And of course, all the boys 🙌🏻

Thanks again @carawenfiction for your fabulous game

[pcpavlovich]

In the middle of the night I felt an unstoppable rush to draw this. Sorry it’s sketchy and messy, but it’s like one of my favorite scenes. And I hope @carawenfiction you don’t mind that I used the quote. P.S. This has been inspired by one of the songs in your Q’s playlist (Down to the second) ✨😌✨

Incorrect TSS Quotes

Because I like to shitpost. I got this from Pinterest and some intense Google searching and just edited it from there. I also made these with ImAcrophobic (wonderful Espresso)! He contributed a huge chunk.

P.S.: I tried to credit most of the quotes, but some of them I couldn't find and others I did myself. We can all bask in its glory, however! And also, the formatting is messed up on my phone, so I suggest your laptop.

MC: I love you. A: I love me, too. MC: You’re supposed to say you love me back. A: Yes, but I love me more.

R: You look nice, I want to kiss you MC: What?! R: I SAID IF YOU DIED, I WOULDN'T MISS YOU MC: ...

G: Rules are made to be broken, A. A: They are made to be followed. Nothing is made to be broken. G: Uh, pinatas. Glowsticks. Karate boards. M: Spaghetti when you have a small pot. G: Rules.

By rapunzelthecorgi.

M: Q, do you dare me to kiss MC? Q: M: Haha, I can't believe you dared me to do this Q: M: You're so crazy haha here I go

By le-dannyscorpius.

M: There's a secret passcode that you need to know to get in. If you were the real Q, you'd know what it is. Q: M: Correct.

A: Why is no one having a good time? I specifically requested for it.

Passed on by ImAcrophobic.

A: Oh please, you wouldn't hurt a fly. R: You're right, a fly's never hurt anybody. You, however, I'd maim.

Passed on by ImAcrophobic.

G: Am I right, A? A: I wasn't listening, but I strongly disagree

Passed on by ImAcrophobic.

M, covering MC's eyes: Guess who?! MC: It's either M or the cold, clammy hands of death. M: It's M! MC: Dammit.

By incorrectdirkgently.

MC: So, what do you think, Q? Q: MC: I didn't hear a no.

Trying out fast food in the Sunworld for the first time:

A: What would the chef recommend? Cashier: I'm sorry, but this is McDonald's. MC: Please excuse my friend, they're not familiar with contemporary etiquette. MC: Clears throat. What would the McChef recommend?

Passed on by ImAcrophobic.

R: Can you physically feel pain in your chest? Q: Nods knowingly. R: This isn't a love thing; I ate too much pie.

Passed on by ImAcrophobic.

G: I've never been in a snowball fight. MC: Really? G: I don't even know the rules. Is there a point system, or is it to the death?

MC, teaching G Sunworld slang: "fam" is just a name people call their friends for fun. G: Cool fam MC: don't G: alright fam MC: stop G: will do fam MC: please G: k fam

By gayforhorace.

M: Don't let MC know how awkward you are. MC: Nice weather today M: Thanks

By GoodZilla.

MC: In your opinion, what's the height of stupidity? Q: Looks MC up and down, gauging what height they are.

Some Shadowman quotes!

Shadowman: There is nothing worse than death. MC: I can think of a lot of things worse than death... A: Coffee without milk... M: Paying rent... G: Small spaces... R: Riding in a car or a bus... Q: Looks at MC's Crocs. MC: I was thinking getting kidnapped... but those are all good points...

A: This is the Shadowman we're talking about. He's the toughest there is. R: Well, he's never fought me. A: Yes, he has. R: He's never fought me twice.

Passed on by ImAcrophobic.

Shadowman, to the group: You're just like human students in July. Shadowman: No class.

By fandcm-world.

MC: Glad to see you, Shadowman, but if you're here... then who's guarding Hades?

By hogwartsincorrectquotes. And lastly,

Shadowman, to A: Your companions are unruly, disrespectful, volatile, and highly unpredictable. I am quite fond of them. R: Welcome to the family.

Passed on by ImAcrophobic.

Quaiel Fanart

It’s suppose to be @carawenfiction Shadow Society’s Quaiel but I don’t know hahahaha did this while I was kinda tired plus its hard to find curly haired male characters. It’s odd why some people assume that this style is curly. Anyways, I substitute his muzzle with an oni half mask (it’s crudely made sorry!) I was going for symbolism in a way that Q keeps people away. And well, the other reason being is that I think oni half mask are kinda cool *(*´∀｀*)☆ This is also my second attempt in coloring (and it still took longer than drawing hahahaha)

🌰Chestnuts and Warm Milk🍂

My List of ~Favorites~ for Interactive Fiction and Visual Novels

(This is a work in progress so please bear with me)

Interactive Fiction:

The Wayhaven Chronicles (WIP Series in Development) - @seraphinitegames  (Look,,, I’m just... obsessed.. I can’t stop thinking abt it,,, and I'm..... sometimes, I read and I think I feel like I know what love is.)

Mind Blind (WIP) - @mindblindbard (I just,, UGH it’s so good. I can't even say that much because my feelings about it are so potent that everytime I see an update I try to tell myself to leave it alone to play larger portions of updates as a treat and everytime my willpower FAILS and I replay the demo like twice in a row)

Demon: Recollect ; Forsaken (WIP) - both by @bathalafiction (whew...WHEW!!! Are you kidding me?? ARE YOU KIDDING ME?? Look. I was attached to Demon: Recollect. I loved it. And then I played the Forsaken WIP and now I can't get over my absolutely BOMB character design for my player persona. Also it's kind of fun being considered a jerk in the game, because it opens up a lot of different options that I usually feel bad about taking)

Shadow Society - @carawenfiction (the concept is so interesting,, I dream of more. Also Quaiel...baby...)

The Soul Stone War - @intimidatingpuffinstudios (also whew!! I really enjoyed it and the characters all picture themselves really vividly in my mind for some reason.)

Greenwarden (WIP) - @fiddles-ifs (reading this is like thick fog.. but in a good way? I don't know how to describe it without pictures but this IF smells like fog over wet grass)

Divine Intervention (WIP) - @divineinterventiongame (the concept?? UGH SO GOOD. For some reason it's always the first game I click to check for updates)

Golden (WIP) - @milaswriting (😈😈😈😈)

Blood/line (WIP) - @bloodlineoffical (simply put,,, LARRY)

Supernatural in New York ; The Bastard of Camelot (both WIPs) - @llamagirl28  (UGH Both of these are so good in their own ways but equally as exciting to see updates for. I haven't consolidated my feelings much further than "my MC for SiNY is so cute" and "Mordred is a child" but they're all generally positive.)

Ace of Spades (WIP) - @steph-writing (I keep thinking about,,, con........)

Nevermoore (WIP) - @asteristories (AHHHHH.... let me say it again for those in the back: AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH)

Son of Satan: The Mortal Coil (WIP) - @sosthemortalcoil (YES.)

Shepherds of Haven (WIP) - @shepherds-of-haven (yes. I just have to sigh because it's very good and I like saying those funny little words of power. But also outside of the game I can only picture this game as a great, grey border collie)

Attollo (WIP) - @attollo (Also a very interesting concept, whoo... I almost forgot how immersive it was untill I played the demo again and was reminded of how 'into it' I was straight off the bat. Also the seperate, short little piece on the blog with Sysba was also really good and I had a dream about it the other day)

Into the Shadows (WIP) - @wynnakang​ (whooo.... I'm sighing again, but louder. I press restart and play the demo again)

A Comedy of Manors (WIP) - @sviyaginthegreat (I kept replaying options that I hadn't chosen before because I wanted there to be more lmao)

Fallen Hero: Rebirth - @fallen-hero (I think there's a sequel coming up? I haven't stopped thinking about this storyline since I finished it omg... the.. the details are really good and I've become ridiculously attached to my tragic villain? Character... she IS the standard for my reusable IF persona, or at least one of my most prominent ones ;-D )

Samurai of Hyuga (WIP series) - (I'm pretty sure multiplechoicestudios.com is the development blog for this game, or at least what I've been checking for updates..... this is a series with four book currently out.... and I've been playing through book 4 at slower than a snail's pace in a desperate attempt to prolong my experience. I really didn't think I was going to like it as much as I did but I got a little too into it and now I'm horribly attached to all the characters)

The Porthecrawl Witness(WIP) - @porthecrawl-witness (I'm pretty sure this is a WIP?? But ugh. SCREEEEEE- it's so good. It's SO GOOD. I really want to punch Talbot in the face. And Asher, if for a different reason. And sort of Staci just to try. Quinn is just a cutie I could never hurt him like that. Ugh but they're all so good and I forgot that I was reading a WIP untill it suddenly was over..... I'mfeeling really aggressive rn as I'm writing this, so please just note that the punch comment is meant as a statement on how interesting the concept and immersiveness of the characters and story is)

Forgotten Names (WIP) - by Alexandra_Zorila on the CoG Forum (turn the volume up. AHHHHHHHHHH!!! Look, look. It's..... delicious. It's SO interesting and I obsessively have a tab open on my computer to check for updates)

OFNA: Birds of a Feather (WIP) - @ofna (the vibes are so grey and smoky but the fog is definitely from a party smoke machine and the room is only dark because the walls are taped with those huge sheets of black construction paper that teachers use to cover their bulletin boards with... the game definitely falls in the 'dark and mysterious' genre but something just strikes me as really funny when I play it. Anyway it's good and it's in a lot if recommended lists for a reason. Also I'm very attached to my American Goldfinch)

More Things in Heaven and Earth (WIP) - @morethingsgame (in the same way that it's fun to play Guenevere in the Guenevere game or Mordred in The Bastard of Camelot, playing Ophelia in the sort-of Hamlet story is really fun. If anyone has read the Missing collection- which I absolutely love- by Margaret Peterson Haddix, this gives me similar vibes for some reason. Anyway, I really want to give Hamlet a hug and make him a flower crown or something)

A Tale of Crowns (WIP) - @ataleofcrowns (It's kind of not even funny how much I love this game... It's hard to even describe why I like it, just that it's so well rounded in terms of the story, characters, dialogue, and relationships. It's such an interesting plotline and it's pretty immersive. Also the first time I read the demo, there was an update as I was reading and the high that sent me on has very rarely been matched. Also Dara running to save my Crown in the tunnel?? 🤚😩🤭💓 ugh. UGH!! That's good food for my fool heart)

Scout: An Apocalypse Story (WIP)- @anya-dev (I'm usually not that into apocalypse themes/plots but I really enjoyed this game, and the plot was very good and intruiging... it really pulled me in and I like my character in the story a lot. I don't know why but it tastes like chikuwa, atsuage, and this specific type of carmelized onions that my mom makes sometimes)

Nothing left to burn (WIP)- @clowdee-works (......ouch. I *knew* what was going to happen and I STILL became attached to Drew)

Smoke and Velvet - @roast-ifs (It's good. And I am VEDY much into my character design. Also the story is really interesting, and I enjoy the setting a lot somehow)

Speaker (WIP)- @speakergame (very fun to play, and each update gets me more interested in the aspects of the plot. I also really like the little descriptions of what the characters think of the player)

The Nameless (WIP)- @parkerlyn (interesting plot, I like the characters a lot, and The aesthetics of this world are so interesting. Definitely had a good time visualizing what everything looked like)

Fields of Asphodel (WIP) - @asphodelgame (I think it's really cute so far!!! I like mythology in general, and the persephone/hades dynamic is *mwah!*... I like the way the story progresses in the beginning, and I think it works well in drawing the reader into the world. I also very much enjoy petting large dogs.)

...there are so much more.. and I have followed so many blogs.........

I'm not sure why I can't find it rn but there's this one WIP game that I really like where the MC buys a manor for like dollar and moves to go live there with her best friend and shenanigans ensue as they try to settle in and fix up the estate

Harbringer (WIP) - @harbringercog (....are you KIDDING me?? I was fully planning on just enjoying the demo and keeping a mental note to update the list sometime later,,, but this game... THIS GAME really made me fold. It's very immersive and regardless of how nervous the author claims to be after releasing the demo, it's of my humble opinion that those nerves can be calmed. It's very good. I was planning on procrastinating and reading a little bit and then going back to this essay I need to write, but somehow I got pulled in and ended up reading through the whole demo and it's apparent that I honestly had no chance of getting through this without becoming invested in the plot.... just... so good.. I'm very excited to see how this will progress)

Visual Novels:

Andromeda 6 (WIP) - @andromeda-six​  (I repeat: Obsessed, I come back every few months to see an update and I fall deeper into the hole every time...)

To the Edge of the Sky (WIP,, probably) - by Ajané (??) on Steam (I think, it’s been a while)

Next on my list to check out: Perfumare by pdrrook

Does.... does The Arcana game by Nix Hydra count as VN?? If so, then yes.

Similarly, the FictIF games are all entertaining, although Last Legacy and Heir to Love and Lies are my favorites rn (and.....unfinished....)

I also don't know if this counts, because I kind of consider Otome games to be their own genre, but on the Love 365: find your story by Voltage Inc. There are a bunch of fun stories, my favorite of which are: the Shinichi Kagari route on After School Affairs and the Saejima and Keiichiro routes on Bad Boys do it Better

..To be continued...

[carawenfiction]

Ok so uhhhhh??? I've been THINKING. Is Q's romancean actual romance? I mean, as in, are greoz capable of love? Or feelings or whatever. In Q's scenes (eg. when they tricked us and then smiled) was it "real"? Honest? I'm sorry, I'm just so confused and so, so goddamn tHIRSTY FOR OUR PRECIOUS Q

While I don’t want to give away too much about Q and their kind since it’ll come up more later (especially if they’re not....you know. Cough), they are always sincere in their feelings towards the MC and/or other people, whether those are positive or negative. 

Whether that’s something unique for Q, or something that’s normal for their species, however....that’s something you’ll find out at a later date :)

Thank you so much for the ask!

[puffin-ka]

WIP

I can’t believe it took me only few hours to draw this! Usually I’m pretty slow, I need reference for every… little… detail. But these guys… They jumped from my stylus just like that! Anyway, this was definitely the easier part. I want to colour them aswell, but my god.. I’m pretty scared :D 

[meme-the-queen-cara]

A: I am not in a relationship with MC.

M: Oh yeah? Well, what is the thing that bee makes?

A: Honey.

MC in "conversation" with Q, turning to A: Yes, darling?

M: And don't you ever lie to me again.

[pcpavlovich]

Hello, welcome home (https://youtu.be/V1Pl8CzNzCw) Several days of redrawing and I’m still not satisfied with the result😓 Okay, here’s Quaiel from Shadow Society and my another mc May Ewart “Girl-with-a-spring-name-yet-lacking-any-colours” P.S. it’s embarrassing how I couldn’t figure out how to insert(?) link and make it pretty 🙈

[goropancake]

Thought I would put up the portraits of them individually to get a closer look at them So y’know, here they are. (I can’t do braids or anything like that, as you can clearly see lol :) )
