Very well. I shall make it so 😎👍👍✨

[neostarreset]

do you have pngs for their outfits? I'd love to seethem!

At the moment, I don’t, but I’ve been considering sprite editing just to get the cast’s alt Winter and Summer outfits established.

I’ll get around to it, I’ve had a recent revitalized urge to draw since the last cover came out- to the point the next cover is already in the works 🤠

Please draw the ouble kiss scene...

Now, are we talking about the Pool Trap kiss, or the first “real” kiss in the Inventor Lab? 🤓🎨🖌️

sorry to ask for specific characters!! but is angie's arc as a whole done or has she yet to be touched upon? :O *me shipping her with prairie for a reason unbeknownst to even me but before of my angie bias*

Don’t be sorry! And no, Angie’s arc isn’t over, it’s actually just been rolled to the top of the hill and this next chapter will have it free falling from this point on :) I just gotta get the next chapter finished, hehe

I had to tackle the Korekiyo thing before the Angie part comes into fruition, so we’re RIGHT there with Angie also becoming a more proactive figure in the story

Which Prairie ship do you like the best?

Putting me on the spot, huh? 😅 still, I gotta say it’s Amable. I’m a sucker for their relationship, conflicts and warm fuzzies both. Plus, it gives me an excuse to amp up Rantaro’s sister-complex habits on pampering Prairie for comedy’s sake

It's so much fun to see the portrayal of people figuring out feelings for other people (whether it be romantic, platonic or something else) while not having it hinder the story in ST, it's messy and raw but not quite melodramatic or over the top. Were you inspired by any sort of work that tackles similar topics regarding it?

For relationship dynamics, the majority is inspired by my own experiences or experiences of people who have shared their own to me. If there’s any works that have maybe tweaked how I explore it, I can’t think of any for the life of me 🥹 but it is set with some realism to how I expect them to react in a real setting? Probably. I’m not exactly the most socialized person though, haha.

The way I write relationships now is sort of me making up for how saturated the start of ST was by Rantaro and Kokichi. I was disappointed I kept shoving other characters to the side saying, “I’ll do that arc of theirs later”- especially when I started ST wanting to give every character a spotlight- including the Monokubs/Monokuma.

oh gosh that newest chapter is driving me crazy because of how good your writing is but now it's got me curious, how long have you been planning for prairie's current dynamics with characters like shuichi or kiyo? or even for the ones she has a long term arc with like rantaro and kokichi? like have you planned their dynamic till the end of the fic or is it more of a "it'll come eventually as the plot and personal development goes onward" sort of thing?

Thank you! 😊

Kiyo’s and Shuichi’s dynamics with Prairie I’ve planned for a long time now, actually. Not since the VERY beginning, but I’d say early Arc 2? That said, I still knew I wanted to have certain relationships with Prairie at some point, but I didn’t have anything properly thought up on how they’d act around each other.

And then Kokichi’s and Rantaro’s dynamics were planned before I wrote started story, mostly as a self-indulgence since they’re two of my favorite characters, but I do have an endgame for every present character that’s in the fic! 😌

I won’t say I’ll follow it to the very end for sure, but it’s a great guideline so I don’t get lost if I decide I want to change gears and try a different path. Sometimes listening to those ideas that come eventually is a better idea than what Past-Reset came up initially with. Other than that though, their finish lines mostly retain the same endgame idea I want them to reach 😁
