So, I just did Caissa’s route in GS and I fear I am completely and irrevocably in love him 😍😭

Literally, every character you write is pure gold, I mean I’m in love with every single one always, even the ones I hate I can’t hate for long.

The world building you do is just so extraordinary, the research must take so much time and passion on your part.

I don’t just feel like I’m playing and enjoying a game, I feel like I’m getting educated at the same time, like actively learning as I play which is such a damn cool experience.

Everyone is so complex and so multifaceted which is so accurate to real life and I really appreciate that. Perspective is such a huge part of our motivations as people and trying to see other people’s and keep in mind that everyone has some sort of reason to do what they do is so important.

You don’t have to agree with the motivation to understand it and that matters

I’m short on time rn but I will be back with more thoughts!!

Honestly, being in love with Caissa is valid! Ha ha.

I really love characters like him - where he's really easy to misunderstand and he does make a lot of mistakes. But he has a good heart and you get to know him as the story progresses and learn he's really just a completely sweet guy

I'm glad you enjoyed his route! I really enjoyed writing it and getting to explore that side of the setting. (´▽`ʃ♡ƪ)

ive downloaded gilded shadows and i am falling down a rabbit hole. ill blame you /pos 🫡 currently on a caissa (?) route and though idk how to pronounce his name he's ... yes

Ahhh, Caissa is such a cutie! I think his name is pronounced kai-sa, like the fictional chess goddess.

I adore Caissa because he's literally a romantic, literature nerd that was forced to become a mafia boss. The second he starts to trust you and you give him any attention, he just unfurls like a flower, desperate for affection.

Gilded Shadows is an amazing rabbit hole! Join me here! Keep me updated on how you're finding it hehe

I’m obsessed with Gilded Shadows so I wrote a small thing. Too big to be microfiction, so I guess it’s millifiction. And I don’t want to title it.

Anyway Caissa, you only have yourself to blame for this.

The man walked away, but not before giving me a leering last look that made me want a shower. “Gross, boring, asshole.” The words hissed out between my teeth as I offered the man one last smile before he looked away. Sometimes it was necessary to go to such lengths to maintain the appearance of civility around these people. 

I hate these parties. I avoided them as much as possible. But schmoozing was occasionally necessary, so here we were. At least I’d gotten better at it since the engagement party. Barely.

I felt Caissa’s presence behind me before his hand on my back and his voice low in my ear. “Not very creative. I much preferred ‘insipid troglodyte’.” I could hear the mirth in his voice as his arm slid around my waist, pulling me back against him. “I hope you’re not losing the edge off your sharp tongue.”

Oh, so my dear husband thought it was a good idea to tease me while my patience was down to a thread, did he? So be it.

I turned in his arms, wearing a smile that was just wicked enough that I caught the arch of his brows before I tugged him closer to whisper into his ear. “If my tongue isn’t sharp enough to entertain you, then maybe it’s soft enough to please you in other ways.”

I could feel the shudder roll through his body, and then the tension that followed as he tried to suppress any visible reaction to the feeling of my tongue darting out to catch that spot just below his ear, the one I knew was particularly sensitive. He froze. I’m pretty sure he stopped breathing entirely, in fact. It was the perfect opportunity to avoid retaliation; I pressed a kiss to his cheek, stepped out of his arms, and chirped, “Enjoy the rest of the party, darling!” before escaping across the room to the refreshments table.

I had this funny feeling that we were going to excuse ourselves and retire for the night some time soon. Call it theakinesis, I guess.

Caïssa is a Thracian dryad portrayed as the goddess of chess. In a poem by Sir William Jones the god Mars falls in love with the goddess Caïssa and after she rebuffs him he presents the game of chess to her in an attempt to win her affection.

He fram'd a tablet of celestial mold Inlay'd with squares of silver and of gold; Then of two metals form'd the warlike band, That here compact in show of battle stand; He taught the rules that guide the pensive game, And call'd it Caïssa from the dryad's name: (Whence Albion's sons, who most its praise confess, Approv'd the play, and nam'd it thoughtful Chess.)
