Hello, would you ever consider writing a fic for Antoine from THTH season 2?

I’ve seen that you liked him and you’re Canadian (from what I’ve seen, please correct me if I’m wrong!) and I really like your love island stories.

I would love to see a story about hockey or something like that for him! Have a good day! ❤️🤍❤️

Hi anon, thanks for the ask! I appreciate your kind words ❤️

Would I consider it? Sure, of course. Is it likely to happen? No, probably not.

Long story long, I just don't feel compelled to write for him for various reasons. I think he's sweet and I loved romancing him, but there just wasn't enough there for me to feel like I needed to write anything for him, especially since he's so easy to romance. If I had the time and inclination to write a THTH chaptered villa fic, I'd come up with some angsty storyline that keeps him and MC apart for awhile, but ugh I'm so done with villa fics (after I finish Amelia Can't Win).

Not to mention, THTH3 is almost out and I've long since moved past THTH2 - it was fun replaying it to get all the achievements, but once I'd romanced Antoine and Ryder I just didn't find it worth replaying. It doesn't have the same replay value that LITG S2 did, and the characters don't have the same depth as the LITG S2 characters. I don't even know what I'd write about Antoine? All I know is he plays hockey and has a sister with medical issues, I've never had any real ideas for him. While even years later, I'm still so fixated on the LITG S2 characters and keep having ideas for them (so, so many ideas) - they're the reason I keep writing.

That said, I may or may not write a hockey fic at some point (I've had a Henrik hockey fic half-outlined for years by now, but I keep prioritizing other ideas), so if I do, Antoine would probably get a cameo at least. But my focus right now is on finishing my 2 current WIPs and the next couple fics I have lined up, and then we'll see where I go next!

Recently I discovered the Netflix mobile game called "Too Hot to Handle" and I simply fell in love with Antoine 😩😩 I just want the special reunion episodes to come out soon

this is my character, Seok

Antoine/MC - that dream and the 'under the towel' scene. Lol.

His eyes flashed with desire and he leaned in, his voice uncharacteristically heavy. “This isn’t an if, Millie. It’s a when. And when I get my hands on you, I’m locking the doors, and we’re not leaving bed for a week.”

Bestie!! I'm finally able to play THTH2! Through my cell phone plan they offered the basic service for free. I'm absolutely loving it so far. I'm sure you've answered this before but who are you romancing? Here's my character.

Omg yayyy!!! I’m an Antoine girly I’m so obsessed with him and have spent so much of the prize money 🤭

Ryder ur making it soooo hard to stay loyal to my king Antoine

[alitgblog]

replaying thth2 bc I realized I've never done the reunion where I'm not just fooling around with Santiago the whole time

and like somehow even on my third playthrough of the main story there's stuff I still haven't seen before that's so exciting

bc like in theory (i.e., if this was a litg season cough cough) after doing a messy Ryder route and a loyal Antoine route, I should know how a messy Wesley route would go bc he's an OG like Antoine but my MC is messing around which I've seen before when I did the Ryder route, but no somehow she's being even more messy.

So either Naomi or Antoine have a conversation with Nora about MC being bad news, and the other times I've played they tended to be jealous or worried MC was gonna win the money but this time, because MC flirted with Antoine in the beginning, he just sounded hurt that she left him behind, and I was like oh my god am I the problem??? (yes)

AND it gets mentioned again when MC catches Antoine and Amari making out that he's kinda being a salty ex and one last time when they both get dumped he says they could've been great together (which may have happened in the other route I played where mc got dumped but I don't remember tbh)

And then there's another part where one character will confront you about not being genuine with your partner, and because my MC is with Wesley, Naomi is the one that pulls MC aside to say this. But when playing the loyal Antoine route, Amari does this and has no evidence so she's just jealous. However, Naomi has so much evidence against MC, I'm like... yeah you're right girl

Meanwhile I also happened to have closed a Ryder route which I didn't know was possible so they're just friends so that's cool but also like there's no chance to save him even though he has a point that he was loyal to Nora the whole time he was there until they broke up, so it doesn't make sense he gets dumped lol

Anyway MC ends up with Kai even though she had a higher romance with Wesley and it breaks it my heart but he's happy with Naomi now so I guess it's fine 😭😭

THTH2 Episodes 1-3 Thoughts!

Eeeek it's THTH2 (Too Hot to Handle the game) time!! Last season fizzled out halfway through but based on the first few episodes of season 2, I've got hopes that this one will be better!

First of all, it's 15 episodes as opposed to 10 - there's room for development (and more bombshells/dumpings!)

There's more customization! I feel like it's improved, although others have said they had a harder time with it. I'm not a huge fan of the hairstyles and outfits we've been given so far, but we'll get more

In the initial episodes, there are 5 friends and only 4 LIs - that might be a little disappointing at first (especially since the friends are all hot - URGH I want Santiago!!), but this actually fixes some of the problems with the first season

More non-romanceable characters is a good thing because it means there will be more storylines besides MC/LI and Jada/Justin/Carter

A lot of us started to hate Jada after a while because she kept popping up and we were forced to be friends with her. Having more friends is a good thing because we'll be able to talk to more people instead of just one person. I'm hoping there will be some branching involved where some scenes are dependent on who your highest relationship is with, but we'll see!

Less LIs is fine for the reasons above - sure there's less choice up front, but with next to no branching in S1, every route was the same, and there were only 3 couples at the end. It didn't make sense. Plus...

We're already getting at least one bombshell next week! It's highly likely they'll be LI(s), and no doubt there will be more people incoming

In Season 1, all the LIs had hard-ons for MC even when MC didn't show them any interest - so far that doesn't seem to be the case, and I love that. It was weird that 9 people were obsessed with us, honestly. This time, our choices matter more

They're already setting up a love triangle! It makes so much more sense to have a LT early on when everyone's new rather than force it with a bombshell we don't even like midway through the season

The characters so far seem to have more personality traits than just whatever their jobs/interests are. Hopefully I'm not speaking too soon, and there is definitely still some of that, but I feel like I've already had deeper chats with them. And they ask about us too, and we can define a bit more of a personality for ourselves

More under the cut...

I picked Antoine so far (love a Canadian hockey player!!). He's basically an upgraded (yes, I said it) version of Theo (the art style is slightly improved - the smiles aren't as creepy this time!). I wasn't a Theo girlie but so far I'm vibing with Antoine

I was a Liam girlie, but Liam 2.0 (Wesley) doesn't have quite the same appeal. He's still hot, but Idk, he's not my Liam

There's a fun Antoine glitch (not sure if any of the other characters have it) where he's fully naked. It's pretty funny

I've already broken a bunch of rules, mwahaha!

The list of achievements this season is interesting 👀 There's an achievement for getting eliminated, which I will definitely be trying to do. And stuff about the others trusting us (probably a way to earn back money)

They still have the "beach hut" confessionals, but I feel like those episodes are shorter, which is great because they could be a drag on replays before, or when you just want to get to the next episode

Santiago is my boy, I'm loving the representation with him. I'm curious if we'll ever get a chance to get our hands on him even without romance, because we do have a flirty vibe and I would absolutely jump at that chance!

Overall, I'm excited to see how this goes! It does seem like they've taken our feedback so far, the initial episodes felt a lot like last season but that's not at all a bad thing - last season started off great, and this one has too. I do think this season has better potential overall and my fingers are crossed that it delivers
