Twilight: Can you recommend me any books that made you cry?

Rainbow Dash: General mathematics 6th edition.

not to be boring but I like when evil characters…. well not become “redeemed,” more like they become domesticated. its just delightful when like an evil monstrous little bastard man goes from committing murder to getting mad someone misplaced their costco card or left the jar of mayo on the counter all day.

ARIN SEASON 4 NOW

[arinlangdon]

Everyone’s talking about archiving the routes we have, but I’m absolutely mourning what we could have had. In an ideal world, this wouldn’t be happening, and we’d be able to see all the beautiful potential realized. This is the saddest part, to me.

Thanks Arin Langdon for giving me a reason to live when I didn't have one

[arinlangdon]

I do love how the one story that's spoken to me more deeply than any since Harry Potter, which I read 20 years ago, has to end like this. I really want to believe that things will turn out, but, well. Voltage has disappointed so often.

god this is excruciating

[hibisco-b612]

It hurts to know Arin's never going to get their happy ending

[arinlangdon]

So that's happening. I can't say how heartbroken I am that Ever After Academy will never be completed. This series, and Arin's story in particular, means more to me than I know how to express.

I wish they'd give the older routes like Xenia, Piama, Arin, Lavinia, and Abel a chance to wrap up before pulling the plug. The newer routes don't have a chance at a proper conclusion, but these handful are so close to the end—they should get a fighting chance! How do we find closure?

As someone who plays both apps it’s fascinating to me how Fictif can’t get enough readers for their women routes but Lovestruck can’t get enough readers for their men routes.

[queerfoliage]

The purpose of actively supporting diverse characters is doing so regardless of “popular demand”.

To build a diverse fan base you need to display and present tangible examples of representation. Not just false promises, and assurance to marginalized communities that you’ll “follow through”.

You then profit off of the ‘smaller’ collectives of readers without a guarantee that you’ll provide content focused for them.

I’m so tired of the argument that male routes are more profitable. Yes, and why is that? Because cis heterosexual women are the primary market for dating sims. We all know this. It’s a tired excuse, and has no validity as a justification for exclusionary business practices.

Do not preach about inclusive stories and routes if you continuously plan to default with a “profitability” excuse.

WLW, MLM, and POC are constantly given the short stick all under the blanket of “well, the whitey tighty male buff boys just make more money from the fan girls!”

Fine. Then make that content, and drop the act that you intend to produce EQUAL, QUALITY CONTENT for your readers belonging to marginalized communities.

STOP. BLAMING. YOUR. READERS. We’re tired of begging for crumbs then being blamed when we’re left out in the cold. Your “apology” was disingenuous, Fictif. Take accountability.
