Thrill Seeker is a text-based horror/mystery game that aims to solve the murder of your beloved mother. Profile pic made by the amazing @exotic-inquiry!!
Sorry for the radio silence on my end. I've been kinda busy. I am so grateful for everybody who's checked in on me and asked how I was doing!
Uh, in other news... I got into university! Come four years, I'll be a biomedical engineer!!!
(This is actual factual info! Not a joke LMAO). Just finishing off probably the most nerve wracking semester of my life, but I think I've gotten the hang of it. Hopefully.
I'll admit something I actually haven't admitted before. Looking at my writing in the past and trying to square it with my new identity and who I wanted to be as an author was difficult, especially because when I started Thrill Seeker... I was actually still in high school ššI turn the big TWO OH (20) next month!
Trying to navigate passing so that I could get into uni was like. A hard thing to square. As well as making an IF. I think combined with the fact that I also knew I was like a teen trying to be in adult spaces (but like avoiding specifically very adult spaces, if that makes sense) and write when I didn't know if my being juvenile was coming across in the prose (my worst nightmare). Like especially because I was keeping writing kind of a secret from people I knew IRL from like the weird perfectionist mindset I had in high school. But, thankfully now that I'm in engineering, I know true beauty is in a 60%! Basically, I need to start encouraging myself and not take myself too serious. I can always keep improving, but I shouldn't be afraid to start at all or put myself out there.
THRILL SEEKER IS NOT ABANDONED! Now that my summer break is coming up, and I'm finally secure in myself, my writing, and just kinda my ideas, I am BACK to this project!!
Once again, I really really wanna thank the people who checked in on me while I was on this... uh... hiatus (?). Everyone who left a kind message, a wish for my well-being, who liked my stuff while I was away-- every single one of you are so so so kind and I am so so so grateful :-)

Just a little happy post, I made a pair of moccasins for my mom's birthday!! My university was doing a set of free workshops to get taught by an amazing Algonquin woman where they provided all the materials for how to make them and I get to finally show them to her today!!
Obviously they're not the greatest things ever but I made them all by myself!! A little loose but they are so so so soft and so lovely! Deer hide and wool for the inside.
This is also my first ever sewing project, it's all hand sewn with just twine and needle :-P Omg I'm just so proud of myself hehe

The 100% Good Twine SugarCube Guide is a coding guide for the SugarCube format of Twine. It is meant as an alternative to the SugarCube documentation, with further explanations, interactive examples, and organised by difficulty. The goal of this guide is to make the learning curve for new SugarCube user less steep, and provide a comprehensive and wide look over the format.
VIEW / DOWNLOAD THE GUIDE!!!!
The Guide is compartmentalised in (currently) four categories:
THE BASICS
or the absolute basics to start with SugarCube.
No need for extra knowledge. Just the base needed to make something.
THE BASICS +
adding interactivity, and creating a fully rounded IF game
May require a bit of CSS knowledge (formatting rules)
INTERMEDIATE MODE
adding more customisation and complex code
Will probably require some CSS knowledge, and maybe some JavaScript
ADVANCE USE
the most complex macros and APIs
Will surely require some JavaScript/jQuery knowledge
Note: The Advanced Use includes all the APIs, macros, and methods not covered by the previous categories. This includes code requiring very advance knowledge of JavaScript/jQuery to be used properly.
Each category explains many aspects of the format, tailored to a specific level of the user. More simpler explanations and examples are available in earlier chapters, compared to the later ones.
If something is unclear, you found a mistake, you would like more examples in the guide, or would like a feature covered, let me know!
The Guide currently covers all macros (as of SugarCube v.2.37.3), all functions and methods, and APIs. It touches upon the use of HTML, CSS, JavaScript and jQuery, when relevant. It also discusses aspects of accessibility.
The Guides also provides a list of further resources, for the different coding languages.
The Guide is available in a downloadable form for offline view:
HTML file that can be opened in Twine
.tw file that can be opened in Twine

People will genuinely be like āoh climate change isnāt real blah blah blahā and then I just heard the first serious tornado warning in my life in my area ššš wow I wonder why this life threatening event that basically has never happened in my area might happen in my area! I wonder! Truly!
to be honest I like to call information that I know about my cherished loved ones 'lore', a habit started since my friend said that in a conversation with me once. I just saw a post by that one aquarium on tumblr and it reminded me about a crucial part of my sister's lore. Ever since she was like 3 and I told her about immortal jellyfish she has LOVED jellyfish. If you had asked her her 'spirit animal' she would say jellyfish. Any one. She likes ALL of them. When I asked her as a kid what animal she'd like to be reborn as if she could pick one she picked jellyfish. She loves jellyfish so much it's crazy.
I was wondering why it seems like my inbox is being overtaken by suspicious messages despite so many verified posts until I finally saw someone pointing out something suspicious:
There are blogs that are creating Gofundme promotional posts for verified crowdfunds, and then editing it to be a link to a new Gofundme.
If a fund has been verified, go to the reblog that verifies it to ensure you're always donating to the correct link.
This is a really good method - like many others Iāve experienced receiving multiple messages that were very similar to the vetted ones but were not the same Gofundme.
Do you need affordable sewing supplies? Do you want to help cut down on waste and fast fashion?
Do yourself a favor and check out Swanson's Fabrics! The physical location is in Turners Falls, Massachusetts, USA, but the online shop will ship to you!
I can't remember who first told me about Swanson's, but they're a textile thrift shop that collects and repurposes donations of unused sewing supplies. Their physical location, The Stash House, offers community sewing resources and a studio. For non-locals (such as myself), their online shop offers fabrics, patterns, and notions. The shop restocks on Thursdays, and they have a constantly-rotating collection of items. If you like thrifting secondhand craft materials, Swanson's is for you!
Via their official "about" page:
Swansonās Fabrics and notions are gifts from retired sewing stashes. They are the fabrics and supplies that sewers and fiber-artists naturally accumulate. I had a suspicion that the reason we all collect so much is that we didnāt have a place āgood enoughā to take it. So I made the place. Turns out I was right, and thanks to my community (and yours) of makers and crafters, I can resell these fine materials at a low, approachable cost.
ALL FABRICS ARE $5.00/yd, NO MATTER WHAT THEY ARE MADE OF. REALLY. I MEAN IT. I KNOW. UNBELIEVABLE BUT TRUE!
As we come to grips with the climate crisis, interrupted supply lines, and our dependency on slave-labor in far away countries to produce our cotton and fiber goods, we need another way to approach the fabrics in our lives.
We have a massive resource of textile goods in our country and it is time to tap into it. Our attics, basements, thrift-store donation bins, and dumpsters are brimming with discarded fabrics. It is time to start making and trading for the things we need, and stop buying so much new stuff we donāt. We need to see ourselves as trash-rich.
Customers at Swansonās can pay for goods and services with goods and services. I accept trade of sewing and fiber supplies/materials, and trade for help in the shop.
I hope to inspire you to make your own clothes, to mend the ones you have, to shop second-hand and alter things to your taste. There is a lot of power in dressing yourself. Custom is king, and you canāt have a revolution in your masterās clothesā¦.

Iām using this language learning app which kind of acts like penpals? Itās called Tandem, Iām trying to use it to learn simple conversational Mandarin. Iād actually recommend it, itās a wonderful app and people are genuinely super lovely on it! But anyways, people can write a comment on your profile so when other people are looking for language help, you can have glowing reviews. So Iām checking the profile of this one guy who sent me a message, and to my astonishment she wrote āHeās mine š¤¬ā and none of the comments Iāve ever seen were like that, so I curiously clicked her profile and I saw he commented on her profile too! I thought they were doing like a coupleās thing on the app, but when I translated, I found out it just said āsheās a great conversationalist.ā etc etc complimenting her english speaking ability šššš
Hello all! I wanted to establish a boundary since things have sort of gotten out of hand.
I won't be entertaining any more nipple related asks, or asks about any body parts in particular. It was funny the first few days, its not funny anymore.
On top of that, I've been getting a lot of really sexual related asks, and inquiries about my sexuality. I'm putting this out there, with me, that's not okay and way beyond what I'm comfortable with.
When I say I don't have an opinion on bodies, that isn't an invitation to try and pry into my personal life or tell me that I'm missing out. I wasn't gonna say this outright, but I'm asexual, and I'm used to these kinds of responses, but that doesn't mean that I like them. So please refrain from asking me about my sexual preferences or favourite body part, because I don't have any. It's that simple.
And even if I did, those are still really weird questions to ask.
Remember, this is a game development and content creation blog, so please respect that. I'm open to most questions, just no more sexual or body related ones.
what kind of music do you listen to when you write?
Omg okay I've actually really liked this playlist creator called Nobody on youtube for a super long time! Recently I've been super obsessed with their 'music to clean your mind' playlist-- it's so nice to just kind of tune out noise!

Critical Lore*
Talent
Galder denotes the practice of magic within our nation, a discipline requiring extensive study and mastery. The ability to manipulate Galderquid, the fundamental essence of magic, is a rare and intricate skill, demanding years of rigorous training to achieve even moderate proficiency.
Every individual possesses a basic affinity for Galderquid, but those with exceptional potential are identified through comprehensive evaluations conducted by village or city physicians around the ages of 12 or 13. These assessments determine the individual's capacity for advanced magical education.
Upon evaluation, candidates are assigned a national rank based on their proficiency. Those demonstrating exceptional aptitude are offered state-sponsored education at the prestigious University College at the age of 18. Others are placed in various other institutions or may pursue private tutelage.
Galder is often referred to as the "fifth philosophy," characterized by its non-intuitive nature. Mastery requires adherence to rigorous methodologies grounded in reason, first principles, and established precedents. The study of Galder encompasses several specialized fields, each with distinct applications and techniques:
Sympathetic Galder: This field focuses on influencing the minds of individuals or animals. It includes practices such as illusion creation, language translation, emotional manipulation, and sleep inducement.
Transmutative Galder: Involves altering the intrinsic nature or form of objects. This process generally relies on the principle that the original and transformed items must possess equivalent 'worth.' The approximate worth of common subjects of transmutation can be found in any good transmutation book.
Invocation Galder: Pertains to the summoning and manipulation of natural elements, including water, earth, fire, and wind.
Clerical Galder: Associated with the Church, this field is predominantly closed practice. However, educational institutions provide instruction in healing and charming, which are also fundamental aspects of clerical magic.
Archery: Involves the use of Galder to manifest a bow and arrows composed of energy. These projectiles deliver significant blunt damage upon impact but they have more varied usage and techniques as taught by bow-masters.
Blade-Use: Similar to Archery, this field focuses on creating blades, swords, or daggers from Galder. These weapons inflict substantial blunt damage but they have more varied usage and techniques as taught by blade-masters.
The Revolution
The Revolution is recognized as having commenced approximately ten years ago and concluded two years later with the ascension of King Edmund of House Northalay. The conflict was precipitated by a series of critical events and widespread discontent among the populace throughout the entire reign of the King Edmund Sr. regarding the laws of his government and his conduct as monarch.
The Revolution was notably ignited by the previous monarch's decision to disinherit his eldest daughter and legitimise his illegitimate son as heir presumptive. This controversial move generated significant unrest among the yeomanry and laborers, who perceived the monarch's actions as unjust and contrary to ecclesiastical teachings. Particularly in reformist cities across the Empire, widespread protests ensued, leading to the deposition and, in some instances, the defenestration of local officials such as Lord Mayors, Sheriffs, and Governors who supported the king and a state of national emergency being declared with martial law being invoked.
A retired general, Aldric Reval, who had previously fought in the unpopular Eleven Years' War on behalf of the crown, emerged as a pivotal leader of the revolution. Utilizing strategic peasant uprisings and sieges, Reval's forces delivered decisive blows to the royalist regime. The revolution culminated in the fall of the capital during the Sack of Feur.
Following the war, a constitutional convention instituted several significant reforms. While the monarchy was retained, it was transformed into an elective institution. In accordance with the dying wishes of the disinherited princess, who had perished during the conflict, the revolutionaries supported her youngest brother, Edmund, then only 17 years old, as king. A new system was established wherein the monarch would be elected by referendum from among the previous monarch's heirs and any citizens over the age of forty who could garner the endorsement of at least seven out of forty-three Provincial Governors and obtain fifty thousand signatures.
The bicameral parliament was replaced by a unicameral national assembly with universal suffrage. The sole eligibility criteria for parliamentarians are citizenship and attainment of the age of majority, with elections held every eight years.
General Aldric Reval was appointed as Lord-Protector of the Realm with extensive powers throughout Edmundās reign and continued as Commander of the Armies for the duration of their tenure. Furthermore, the University College was opened to all individuals of suitable rank, not limited to the nobility.
Under the new provisions, all children from officially recognized noble houses or those with an annual income exceeding 1,300 libre must receive training and serve in the Gendarmerie and Youth Corps upon reaching the age of eighteen. This mandate was intended to instill the common national spirit and sense of noblesse oblige.
The reformist and radical factions, which had been barred from participation since the reign of the prior queen over sixty-four years ago, were officially unbanned and re-integrated into the parliamentary democracy.
The government is required to be formed by the majority party in the national parliament. The King appoints the Premier, who must then assemble a cabinet predominantly composed of members from the majority party. Although the King retains the authority to appoint cabinet members from outside parliament, early precedent set by King Edmund suggests that he will appoint those recommended by the Prime Minister.
The Gendarmerie and University College
The Gendarmerie, colloquially known among the common folk as the Small Army, serves as a voluntary armed force in peacetime within the Empire. Its primary role is to function as a national guard, maintaining peace and order across the extensive and diverse territories of the Empire.
During periods of peace, the Gendarmerie is comprised of volunteers who contribute to the stability of the nation. However, in times of war, the monarch is vested with the authority to implement conscription, thereby obligating young men to serve in the armed forces.
Following the Revolution, significant reforms were introduced regarding service in the Gendarmerie. Nobles and individuals from affluent households are now required to complete a compulsory four-year term of service and training within the Gendarmerie. This training is relatively light compared to full military training, designed to balance the economic and educational responsibilities of these citizens with their military duties. The intent behind this reform is to ensure that individuals from privileged backgrounds contribute to national service while accommodating their broader societal roles.
University College stands as the foremost educational institution within the Empire, renowned for its comprehensive and prestigious programs. Traditionally, it served as the premier academy for the children of nobility, the monarchy, and the clergy, maintaining a long-standing reputation for excellence in education.
University College's Faculty of Galderquid was one of the last strongholds of exclusivity, admitting primarily the aristocracy due to the national ranking system which favored noble applicants. As a result, high ranks in Galder were predominantly attained by nobility, given that opportunities for the common folk to study and advance were severely limited.
In the wake of the Revolution, significant reforms were instituted. University College expanded its admissions policies to include common folk, democratizing access to higher education. This shift has allowed individuals from diverse socio-economic backgrounds to partake in the rigorous study of Galderquid alongside traditional subjects.
Beyond its distinguished Faculty of Galderquid, University College upholds a strong tradition in the liberal arts. It is known for its broad curriculum and research at the forefront of the emerging technologies of the world, encompassing a broad spectrum of disciplines and advancements relevant to contemporary thought and practice.
Situated in Feur, the capital city, University College benefits from its central location in what is often regarded as a hub of youthful energy and societal activity. Feur's reputation as a vibrant center for young nobles and genteel individuals enhances the college's role as a key venue for social introduction. It is frequently heralded as a place where the most advantageous social and matrimonial matches are made, positioning it as a pivotal institution in shaping the elite's social landscape.
The Empire
The Empire's history is both extensive and complex, rooted in the unification of the formerly independent nations of Peuter, Gallo, and Paria. This merger, which occurred nearly 150 years ago, marked the beginning of the Empireās formation and laid the foundation for its subsequent development.
From its inception, the Empire adopted an expansionist stance, which has characterized much of its history. This policy of territorial growth has been met with widespread approval among its citizens, largely due to the substantial wealth and resources it has brought to the nation. As the largest empire in its region, it has established itself as the dominant lingua franca, further solidifying its influence and stature.
In the past four decades, the Empire has implemented a policy of assimilation. This approach has involved transforming its former colonies into integral provinces, thereby incorporating them into the Empireās administrative and social framework. Citizens of these newly established provinces are granted full citizenship, while certain collaborators are bestowed with titles of nobility and established noble houses. This strategy aims to reinforce their allegiance and integrate these territories more thoroughly into the fabric of the Empire.
Despite its vast wealth and dominance, the Empire has faced relatively frequent rebellions in its newly acquired provinces, where calls for independence have persisted. Historically, these uprisings have been met with swift and overwhelming military responses. However, under the current administration of King Edmund, a new approach has been adopted. While the Empire has not ceded any ground, the government is exploring alternative methods of addressing dissent, reflecting a shift in strategy from previous practices.
*The lore detailed here is accurate but also only extends as far as the protagonist's knowledge of these subjects at the present time of the fic, some detail will be lost or may have been withheld from the MC and they may have misconceptions.
Romances
You remember meeting him once, when the royal family was on a progress throughout the realm. He was a shy, sickly boy that seemed to cling to his elder sister's leg and you scarcely heard besides a greeting and your occasional conversation when prompted by your Papa or when his mother pleaded with him to friends. It seems in the years since he has changed in many ways, from growing into his boyish good looks to now being the sole focus of society's adoration and focus for his amiable if dramatic personality and regular scandals that regularly dominate the newspapers though he still appears to take a backseat in the matters of governance.
Perhaps you shouldn't have been caught off guard when you caught his eye, he does apparently love a distraction...
Name: Edmund of House Northalay
Age: 27
Height: 6'5
Appearance: Edmund stands at a 6'5, noticeably lanky although his seemingly permanent jaunty posture appears to cut an inch or two of him. He possesses short bronde hair styled in such a fashion that it appears intentionally messy and fashionably ruffled with various products used to achieve the effect. He possesses a lean athletic physique although it is evidently achieved through some sort of diet or exercise for aesthetic rather than being muscles created by years of work. He nearly always has a relaxed expression with a smirk and his pale face is framed by his hazel blue eyes.

Tropes: Life of the Party, Commitment Issues
The courting of King Edmund with the Queen Consort Vania is a memory that you can't forget dominating the news the entirety of your twelfth year, each morning greeted with sketches of her striking visage and details of the few words she'd deigned to utter to the press and their marriage was the talk of the town for weeks. You remember the excitement on your mother, sister and brother's faces when you all received the invitation to the royal wedding.
As they walked down the aisle in that church, you couldn't help but try to scan her eyes obscured by that veil and for some reason as you made eye contact it sent a shiver down your spine.
Name: Vania Lionel, Lady Northalay
Age: 36
Height: 5'9
Appearance: Vania stands straight at a tall 5'9 although her heels often push her to 5'11 or even 6'0. She has long wavy chestnut brown hair interspersed with soft streaks of grey although more often than not it is in an updo of some sort for practicality. She has a healthy chubby physique with faint smile lines and wrinkles, with sun-kissed tan skin as well as doe-shaped deep brown eyes. Somehow a picture of beauty and severity, all the soft lines of her body somehow harsh.

Tropes: scary hot, masc women, girls with g*ns
The Revolution was just starting when Reval came to your family's manor. You can recall the tension in the air as you peered through the window at them and their host of men on horse approaching your home, the only home you'd ever known then. Reval, then a rising leader of the revolutionary forces, arrived asking for food and shelter for his men, their cap in hand as his face gaunt with the hunger of the early days of the revolution. What struck you most was how they made a point of having their soldiersāand even themselfāassist around the house. the image of them, sleeves rolled up, carrying pails of water and helping the staff clean still persists. How they wished you well as they rode out, without fanfare but you could feel their fell purpose.
Name: Aldric Reval
Age: 43
Height: 5'11
Appearance: Aldric has short, practical wavy black hair streaked with grey throughout, reflecting years of experience and hardship. their muscled, well-built stature is a testament to their years of service. He has warm brown skin, indicative of his heritage being from the Empire. His light green eyes stand out against his rugged features, with a determined, piercing gaze.

Tropes: The Stoic, No Sense of Humour, Heroic BSoD
Your arrival in the Feur was marked by the jostling and noise of the bustling streets and the smell of smoke that pervaded the lower city. As you were squeezed in the cramped carriage, you could hear a boyish voice call out, hailing down the carriage which came to a sharp stop. They clambered in, you assumed to escape the rain but before sitting down they began handing out flyers which were covered in radicals' symbology and literature. After a moment and a flurry of scandalised whispering the coach once again came to a halt and the coach driver came around, throwing them out without much of a fuss. Undeterred, they landed on the ground with a cheeky smile, brushing the dirt of themselves and their now wet jacket before quickly running off with a call of āhail, hail!ā
Name: K(eir/Kiera) Jamestown
Age: 19
Height: 6'1 (m) / 5'8 (f)
Appearance: Jamestown has straight ginger hair. In their male variant, it is short and parted in the middle, framing his face modernly. In their female variant, it is styled in a fashionable long bob, popular among the more radical girls in the cities. They have a ruddy complexion with a light smattering of freckles across their face and hands. Their lithe physique suggests years of inactivity and academic study. They have striking sage green eyes.

Tropes: Firebrand, Roommates, Forced Proximity, One Sided Dislike
You remember the days of your childhood, playing together in the fields and forests. Over time, you mostly grew apart, but you still made an effort to say hello and have a short chat whenever you bumped into each other on the way to or from town. Their family lived on your land, and there was always a sense of familiarity between you. Imagine your surprise when you saw them waiting for the carriage out of your small provincial town to the capital city and University College, a bulging trunk in their hands. They wore a bashful smile as they explained they waved away the fact that they were a prodigy.
Name: A(dlai/Addison) 'Addy' Gardener
Age: 18
Height: 5'7 (m/f)
Appearance: Addy has blonde hair, worn slightly longer than most. They have fair skin and light brown eyes. Though not overly built, they have definite muscle definition in their legs and arms from working outdoors. Their sun-kissed skin is marked with sunspots, a testament to their time spent under the open sky.

Tropes: Guy/Girl Next Door, Secret Crush, Intelligence Equals Isolation, Friends to Lovers
On your first day reporting for the Gendarmerie, you felt a mix of nerves and anticipation. As you looked around at your fellow recruits, one person stood out. They seemed to tower over the rest and radiated an excitement unmatched by anyone else, eagerly standing first in line as the instructors called for order.
Later, as you headed to University College, you noticed someone strikingly similar to that towering recruit. Trying to strike up a conversation, they looked at you with confusion before saying, āYou must've met my twin.ā Before promptly departing, with a silent display of Galder their heavy book bag floated after them.
When you considered them, you were mortified how you hadn't immediately guessed it. Their entire beings seemed diametrically opposite to the other.
Name: F(allon/Farah) Rue
Name: G(arth/Galia) Rue
Age(s): 18
Height: 5'8 (f) 5'10 (m)
Height: 5'9 (f) 5'11 (m)

In their male variant, F wears their hair in single plaits tied up, showcasing a practical style. In their female variant, they have their hair in braids, adding a touch of casual elegance to their appearance. Their well-built stature and defined muscles speak of years of rigorous physical activity and training
Appearance: G has a striking appearance, with warm brown skin and heterochromiaāone eye brown and the other hazel. They carry themselves with a straight back and an elegant sense of movement, exuding silent confidence and poise. In their male variant, G wears their hair in single plaits, showcasing a practical and neat style. In their female variant, they have their hair in braids, adding a touch of elegance to their appearance. Their stature is more often than not hidden under their clothes but suggests they at one point were much more active from their physique.
