The mc is lowkey so funny like wdym ur on the balcony and u see ur ex and ur first thought is “i can sleep on a park bench tonight” lmaooo

MC just trying to get through every day in one piece :p

Wow first this looks awesome! I'm super interested!!! This looks like it'll be so cool!! Second- I'm so curious about spouse being ENEMIES to lovers, They must seriously hate MC and I wanna know why soooo baddddd and the friend system, ahhhhh I wanna know about our friend!!!!

thank you!! MC will definitely find out at some point but up until then I can't reveal anything ahhah!

a little more info about the friend system: each friend carries a small notebook around their neck or shoulder. from Mon - Sat, everyone is obliged to jot down how their friend is acting, feeling, and if there are any oddities or if everything's the same as always. on Saturday, after the final Mingle of the week, before MC steps into their home, they place the notebook in front of the door for it to be collected. by Monday, it'll be in front of the door again, ready for the process to repeat itself.

it's a system designed to foster a tight-knit community where everyone looks out for one another.

Can we have the kind of MC that trolls back? Like someone comments “Ugh [MC] is in it? Thanks a lot now I won’t be watching” and MC just replies “thnx bby 🩷”

yes haha MC can reply, disable comments, or even engage in a back and forth, but that might just be adding fuel to the fire🤣

[riptide-if]

Because MC is well known surfer do they have their own fandom ?

yeah! surfing infodump rq to explain

riptide is structured a little diffy for story purposes but surfers have to participate in smaller competitions firsts to rack up points, like local comps. then it typically goes junior tour, (20 and under, MC’s first JT was when they were 9) challenger series, qualifying series, and then championship tour (the one MC’s currently going on at 22!)

n’s CT was when they were 24, a year prior. MC has qualified for the CT in previous years but freddie values their education immensely lol.

but all this to say, yes. they do have a decent online following since they’re very talented but also due to them dating lee. they are like a local celebrity in their town as well lol always being given free stuff especially since most store owners have known MC their whole lives. MC is also seen throughout their life in online surfing videos but hilo only made and managed w/ aria a youtube channel when they were like 14, 15

Do you know when the demo will drop?

It's coming, I promise! A lot happens in the demo, that's why. (like an ambush) and there's a LOT of variables for the Dove. MC can react to everything so differently so it's taking a bit. Plus it branches depending on whether MC wants to be pragmatic or...violent....

Famous because your achievement is that you were born into a royal family xD

It's kinda depressing because probably MC is seen more as a title /symbol/ pawn of a dynasty than a person. And they have no right to complain, because they are in a privileged position when most people in the world have a harder life.

MC is definitely seen as a pawn in a bigger game. They are not their own person, nor do they have agency. MC is strictly regulated and every move of theirs has to be approved by 182923822 people. And you're right. MC complaining usually just gets eye rolls from people.

MC will get that a lot from C, who is a worker at the country club they frequent at. They aren't privileged and they need to work to survive. MC's woes would just be annoying to them lol

Just played the demo for the first time, I really like the whole concept of the story! I think it's been the only story I've read about elemental users in a modern setting, so I can't help but find it refreshing (bonus points for having ATLA/TLOK as inspos, good taste indeed).

My thoughts, in no particular order: I want to give MC a warm hug, a fluffy blanket and a cup of hot chocolate (+ praying that the lightning deity that blessed MC will also smite the orphanage and Mother down in the future. Do it for the poor little meow meow, o great deity!), Mother sounds like one of the caretakers or the head of the orphanage, I love L and A to bits, after the new info about J (what with MC having trauma regarding earth weavers) I'm looking forward to their interactions w/ MC, I hope we see Professor Astor again...

Lore questions that popped in my head: Do people know how many elemental deities are? Since there's apparently a hierarchy in place... And the fact that lightning as an element is very rare for weavers makes me think that there're probably more deities for an element than others (either that or the deity is very stingy with their blessing lmao).

Romance-centered thoughts: I absolutely will romance all of the ROs, I can't resist their allure at all. I'm making three separate playthroughs as I speak 🏃‍♀️ (though I have to admit I'll romance A first. 'Cold and detached exterior with a warm and nice side underneath it all for those who break their walls' characters are my one-hit K.O. weakness fr 😔). It also makes me think... How would you rate the RO routes for slowburn and angst purposes? L and A seem to have some baggage concerning their families, J is a mystery for now, and MC can be the biggest touch-averse yet touch-starved person in the whole story. Also, the implications of some of the choices make me imagine that MC could potentially not see themselves as someone worth loving, you know. They're gonna be so confused and scared at the whole falling in love business that will ensue in the future 😭.

Ohhh I love asks like these. They make me re-think some of the decisions I’ve made while writing - in a good way of course!

I’ve always adored the world of ATLA/TLOK (though I admit I have not finished the original series yet, only Korra’s). The little fanfics I’ve written for it (for myself only) are my favorites

The amount of deities that exist are unknown, but there is more to be revealed about the existence of weavers like the MC in the future. Let’s just say that the realm of elemental deities have their own shit to take care of 👀

The relationship angst and pacing entirely depends on how MC interacts with them romantically. The variables for MC affection for RO, and RO affection for MC are separate. I’ll just let you imagine what that means 😏
