i cant talk for any other hyv game but i do think it’s interesting how hi3 and genshin’s story flaws/ideals are bc of the very specific medium they’re in.
#genshin is open world you are literally brought into another world#so every character you get Has to be different and Has to represent a particular person.#there’s not necessarily that aspect of time and growth which is so so interesting bc time is so important in genshin#genshin’s world is fun bc you really don’t need to be into the lore to enjoy it#there’s a lot of flexibility to be had#you can walk around or explore or kill things etc etc#you can enjoy the scenery or the music you can decorate your teapot etc etc etc!!#and i think that it being so immersive works well for the game! it’s one thing i really really adore abt the game even though it brings#flaws i don’t like!!#honkai is more focused on story telling which makes it’s open world maps weaker and less immersive#you’re expected to look at the text rather than the characters#and bc the gameplay can be so. Typical bc you’re jsut switching between Combat and Story.#it can get stale if you’re not immersed in the story#like. at least if you’re only in the game for the battle aspect there’s a skip button but like. yk. can get tiring.#but it being so limited means the story as a whole gets so much thought and focus put into it#and you can tell!!!!#each character (even side characters) are intertwined with each other#and there’s layers of commentary and symbolism and relationships everywhere!!#and that’s the point! it’s on purpose!#it can be incredibly overwhelming for new players#esp bc the information is honestly. kinda inconvenient to get to.#but getting the grip of it leads to truly understanding How Much the characters actually change and grow#and the fact that the characters have multiple battlesuits only amplify that#bc each battlesuit for each character will be different from other battlesuits :3#hnk3#gi

I read Love me Not religiously now and I CAN’T WAIT for what you have in store for us when it’s Dottore’s turn, especially after that sudden teaser dropped by Hoyoverse.
BUT!!!
I do now have a thought after rewatching some K12 music videos. If Riddle’s darling is itty bitty for who knows how long now, imagine how difficult it’d be to escape despite how easy it sounds because of her size. It’d be like navigating through the maze of roses in something as simple as a cabin, but our devilish Goldfish just LOVES making things difficult with the strings attached. It makes me wonder if he’d infantilize her now that she’s small. Maybe leave her children’s poems to keep her entertained, knowing that she wouldn’t adjust immediately even out of fear. Especially the How Doth The Little Crocodile poem!
If she’s still cheeky, she’d probably sass him over the fact that this shrinking spell was an excuse to heal the pride over his height. Oh he thinks life is easy now that Darling is small and harmless? No, no, no… she’d most definitely be plotting and looking for key holes, slightly opened windows, etc to climb through and escape like a dorm mouse.
Dottore's fic is going to be a wild ride. >:) It's a modern au that is broken up into two parts and the first part is halfway finished. With the recent trailer I've been even more eager to finish it!! I think you'll enjoy it if you like high stakes, life or death situations, and shocking twists!
I like to imagine Riddle purchases various dollhouse items and is constantly arranging the scenery outside and inside just to keep himself entertained and to prevent you from learning your surroundings and any possible escape methods. He loves decorating the dollhouse with new trinkets just to give it a more Heartslabyul-esque look. He buys tiny books and will keep the bookshelf stocked with poetry novels, children’s stories, and picture books.
Your wardrobe is filled with beautiful, frilly outfits! Now that his mother isn't here to dictate your fashion, Riddle gets to choose your clothes based on his own interests. He'll make sure every outfit is tailored perfectly. Red is almost always incorporated in the outfit, and he likes it when you wear the jewelry he gets for you. You're basically just his doll now and sometimes Riddle forgets that you're human just like him. He won't ever forget that you're his fiancée, though.
What's worrying about being so small is Riddle's temper, which is much bigger now that you aren't human-sized. Whenever he slams his fist down on the table, the entire dollhouse shivers and some of the things inside come tumbling down. His rage could very well lead to the house's downfall, as every spat between you and him could produce a Riddle-made earthquake. Since Riddle's so much bigger and taller than you now (for once lol), he has to actually take what little physical strength he has into account. He doesn't have any intention to injure you, but it can be difficult to remember that when he's angry. Although if you do happen to escape he can easily pick you up like a dormouse and set you back inside the house (or an empty teapot if he wants you to join him for a tea party in the rose maze).
Pray that you don't run into Trey or Cater because as much as they'd like to help you they have to answer to the dorm head first. They don't want a beheading, after all! Maybe you're better off seeking help from someone else on campus, but who knows what sort of characters you might encounter if you find your way out of the dollhouse, out of Riddle's room, and out of Heartslabyul altogether.
Who knows! You might just meet a certain cat whose curiosity got the better of him while Riddle's busy with Housewarden duties. Hopefully he'll be willing to help you.
