    Aww MulMizu. *headpats*

    I am terrified as shit of getting old. My husband is six years older than me; last year he turned 30, and I'm like "OH MY GOD YOU ARE ANCIENT I WILL ONE DAY BE AS OLD AS YOU." Thankfully he takes it in stride, heh.

    I will never get married, MARK MY WORDS!!

    I had never fallen in love in all my life nor I'm desperate for some romance.

    /as you read through an otome-game LP


    MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMHMM, OKAY.
  4. *pulls out a Sharpie and starts making marks on Zelipzo's words*

    Ah, yes...I remember being like you.
  5. I will never tell you how old I am.

    And I am sure you're happy about that. :D

    You guys just need to look at the positives of growing old. I for one plan to grow a giant white beard, get fat, dress as Santa, and run around town telling children I don't exist and throwing coal at the police. This way, the children will have both been told that there is no Santa and have seen Santa get arrested.

    Edit: And if you're a woman, you can do the same thing but with a clearly fake beard. This way, the children also think that Santa is a transsexual and hopefully learn a lesson about tolerance! So you'd be doing a good thing, really.

    Hey is true :<

    Also I never have fallen in love with a pixel eighter, but shhhhhh that is a secret, I don't want people think I'm abnormal~~
  9. I...need a translator. :/ I'm not sure that was English. That I recognize. As being English. Or something.
  10. I believe you. I've never been in love. Plenty of crushes, though, which isn't the same thing. I'm not desperate, either, but I'm starting to think it might not be such a bad thing.

    Well, good lady, if you need a translator, look no further! I'm 45% (+/- 45%) sure that the first part says cute attractive lesbian princess and that the second part is an onomatopoeia for the sound of a heart beat...or something. Nyan is moon speak, as far as I'm concerned.

    I think.
  13. Antiqua Magister Mundi Elyscape

    I thought the same once. I never fell in love with anyone so far.
    But now I want to get married and have six children. But how do you meet people, is it magic

    /moves to Mexico and changes her name in Mercedes

    I didn't thought that was possible either, but according to Wikipedia - which I checked to be sure - if you married someone just because you wanted to marry a doctor, then you can dump him/her if it isn't one. Basically, you can get an anullment if your husband/wife lied to you about who he/she really is.

    I'm terrified of getting married :/ it's hard enough trusting someone enough to be their friend but to share your life with them? yikes. well I'm only 19 and I don't have any experience with relationships so don't mind me

    As a 19 year old guy, I feel your pain. Whats weird is that a bunch of my friends are getting married and I'm just thinking "Dude, why are you doing this? You're so young and you're just throwing your life away!" Anyway, what I'm getting at is FOREVER ALONE BRO-FIST!

    3 posts in 30 minutes? I am weirdly talkative today.

    Haha I always get made fun of by my family more than my friends because I haven't dated anyone yet. Is there a rule saying you have to date by a certain age? I haven't found anyone I like enough yet so I'll just keep on waiting~ FOREVER ALONE FIST![IMG]

    Dude, I am in the exact same boat as you are. I'll date as soon as I find someone who doesn't suck horribly[IMG].

    LETS KEEP THE BROFIST GOING!

    I am living proof that otome game romances do exist :)

    It was my very first week of college, I was feeling scared and alone and I didn't know a single person. (otome point 1)

    I had just befriended a girl who would later become my love rival (otome point 2)

    I went to a small bakery completely by chance to help out my future rival, when I met the man I'm with now. It was quite literally love at first sight, for both of us (otome point 3)

    We went through all the traditional otome ups and downs with love rivals, sadness, and failure to communicate (otome point 4)

    But everything worked out because we truly love each other! (otome point 5) Haha it sounds even cheesier when I type it than I remember.

    Edit: Also, turtle bros...

    Most excellent playthrough Tome-Chan. Nontheless I will stick to Celibate Hero route.

    Seeing how bad of an otome protag I would be I don't think I'll do very good once I get into the dating scene. Terrible decision making skills, go!

    Don't worry about it. As long as you make time to go out and meet new people, I'm sure you'll find the right person at the right time. :)
    Hahaha, you're 19. Don't sweat it. Pretty much follow the same advice as above.
    In the meantime...

    Man, I should have delurked long ago. Look at all these awesome bros fisting each...other...god dammit.
    Also, I would play the hell out Tome-Chan's harem. What would the bad route be?
  31. MulMizu Sassy Black Woman

    The yandere route.

    'S a shame, since. You know. About 75% of the routes are yandere routes. Hope you like being eaten, bruised, and otherwise mauled~
  32. Don't feel bad. I think I've pretty much proven to myself that I'll never make a good otome protagonist. And they say blondes are dumb... I've pretty much sucked at the dating scene forever, anyway. Guys just do not seem to like smart women.

    Also they don't seem to think I'm for real. Whaaat? I don't know how to act like anyone other than me. :(
  33. Oh, okay. That makes more sense. Lying is a completely different issue. I think they refer to that as fraud in a legal divorce case over here.

    Lysa wakes up from her sweet dream of Ebi-chan stroking her hair, wondering why she was dreaming about her boss. Lysa, it's because he's smexy.

    She shakes away the feelings from her dream and walks out of her room, only to see a "Do Not Disturb" tag on Koichi's study door. After making breakfast, she decides to ignore the sign and wake him up. Obviously this means that a very cranky Koichi comes to the door, bitter about being woken up early on a Sunday. Lysa realizes her mistake and eats breakfast alone.

    The next day, Lysa delivers the documents for Ebi-chan early in the morning. Suddenly, she gets a call from Koichi. He's forgotten an important flash drive at home so he asks her if she doesn't mind bringing it to him at work (since he has a meeting). Lysa will be late for work if she brings it to him, but she goes anyway. (Lack of communication again, great)

    She calls ahead to the office, letting them know that she will be running late and literally sprints there after dropping off the flash drive. However, Ebi-chan is still really mad. He berates her for being late and looking disheveled.

    IMG_1849.PNG

    Such a meanie.
    Lysa tells him that she works hard in her own way. Good, stand up for yourself. Just then, Lysa's old boss comes into the office.

    IMG_1851.PNG

    Lysa: Err... For me?

    Hana assures her that she won't be doing the job alone. Then she turns to Ebi-chan and tells him to do the job with her. (otome plots are so predictable)

    IMG_1852.PNG

    The preschool is pretty much broke doesn't have much of a budget but they want a safe place for the children to play.

    Hana tells Lysa to let Ebi-chan run her through the wringer so that she can stand on her own two feet soon, which gets Lysa's fighting spirit all fired up. She tells Ebi-chan that she will try hard, but she might drag him down a bit.

    IMG_1853.PNG

    Then he tells Lysa to do a preliminary search on the client for the meeting tomorrow, so she gets right to work. She is about to work through lunch when Nanami (coworker) and some other coworkers ask her to go to lunch with them.
    The coworkers ask Lysa about her newlywed life, expressing their jealousy that she has a husband with a prestigious job. One coworker jokes that she has all the hottie hookups. That's our Lysa!

    IMG_1854.PNG

    IMG_1855.PNG
    What a strange face...

    As they are talking, Lysa's dad calls to command her tell her that she and Koichi need to have dinner with them tomorrow night. When Lysa says that she may not be able to leave work, he gets all growly that she was supposed to quit her job when she got married and that she needs to be a housewife and blah...blah...blah...he basically insults all of Lysa's life choices.

    IMG_1856.PNG

    Okay, her reluctance to express her feelings to Koichi is making a little more sense now...

    Back at work, Lysa tells Ebi-chan that she has made an appointment at the preschool for 2pm the next day. He agrees to the time, then tells her to get to work on the book cafe. Lysa is feeling stuck for ideas, when Ebi-chan sets down a can of coffee in front of her.

    IMG_1857.PNG

    IMG_1858.PNG

    Aww, he really is nice when he's not in Boss Mode.

    Akiko, Aiba, and Lysa go out for drinks after work, to what is apparently the only bar in the world, and of course Kiyoto is working. He makes those innuendos he is infamous for by now and lets it slip that Lysa was drinking with Ebi-chan a few nights back.

    Akiko and Aiba freak out and tell her what a big deal it is for him to do something nice like that.

    IMG_1860.PNG

    Hmmmm...I wonder....

    ...I know it's stupid, but I'm so angry at Koichi only for what he did on Sunday - and he even asked her to make him a favor after being...I can't even think straight about it.
    Die in a fire, Koichi,

    Ebi-chan is nice so far, so that's ok.

    That part from her dad makes more sense in the context, since in Japan there is a distinction if a woman chooses a job because she really wants to work or if she chooses to work only until marriage because she wants to be an housewife later.
    I'm curious to see how she will react and changer her life since thanks to her father this situation sucks even more.
  40. Yeah, I gotta agree--if he had asked me to get his flash drive, I would have told him he should get it himself, I'm not gonna be late to work for him.

    I'm still wondering when she's gonna confront him about his cheating, though. She really needs to stop backing down from that.
