[1:35:19 AM] Silky Spectre: so
[1:35:22 AM] Silky Spectre: if I'm not mistaken
[1:35:55 AM] Silky Spectre: probably the best thing that I could do in regards to trying to get on Louise's route is to stop being overly familiar with her, and just do what she says
[1:36:05 AM] Silky Spectre: feel free to correct me if I get something wrong
[1:36:22 AM] Silky Spectre: but for the moment at least, it would seem that that is the best plan I have
[1:36:49 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: yeah
[1:37:11 AM] Silky Spectre: that's gonna be super boring though
[1:37:13 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: if you dont want to
[1:37:18 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: just try another character
[1:37:39 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: because otherwise you wont get there with louise
[1:38:42 AM] Silky Spectre: I mean, I wouldn't be opposed to a Claudia route if it happens, but for the moment I haven't given up on the Princess.
[1:39:24 AM] Silky Spectre: like for example when Alek was flirting with Louise before the fight against Samurai, you were doing your exposition thing, and I just wanted to spice it up a bit
[1:40:18 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: i know you did, thats cool and all
[1:40:23 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: you should play him however you want
[1:40:25 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: but
[1:40:33 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: if it doesnt go well, it doesnt
[1:40:47 AM] Silky Spectre: kek
[1:41:23 AM] Silky Spectre: so basically, the quickest way to fall out of her route, is to actively pursue her route
[1:41:40 AM] Silky Spectre: fuck I hate it when VN writers follow that trope, lel
[1:43:25 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: no offense but if you want to get on an island but cant swim, you have to take a boat
[1:43:30 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: you drown if you try otherwise
[1:43:43 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: alek is, right now, drowning
[1:44:37 AM] Silky Spectre: well if my current, aggressive plan isn't working, perhaps I should play passively, and let things happen as they do
[1:44:46 AM] Silky Spectre: for real this time
[1:44:48 AM] Silky Spectre: I swear
[1:44:59 AM] Silky Spectre: I'm not just saying I'll do it, and then repeat the same mistakes, kek
[1:46:00 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: there were some things but they were already mentioned
[1:46:06 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: nooby probably said them
[1:46:32 AM] Silky Spectre: nooby pretty much said to just chill out, and be the best minion I can
[1:46:51 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: yeah. alek is childish thats why
[1:47:35 AM] Silky Spectre: You just stabbed me right in the feels
[1:47:42 AM] Silky Spectre: and then soaked it in lemon juice
[1:47:43 AM] Silky Spectre: :D
[1:48:04 AM] Silky Spectre: you know, you get brutally honest when you're tired
[1:48:49 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: uh, sorry
[1:48:56 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: didnt mean to use that word
[1:49:01 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: but its the truth
[1:49:06 AM] Silky Spectre: nah you're fine
[1:49:06 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: every single time
[1:49:13 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: he is acting like a child on a rebellious phase
[1:49:30 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: i observed a stubborn nature against louise at first too
[1:49:45 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: you know where the real problem starts from my perspective?
[1:49:49 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: when you start fixing your shit
[1:50:03 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: then your personality starts to appear inconsistent in the long run
[1:50:24 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: i dont condone people doing what they want
[1:50:31 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: i sort of want them to enjoy this world i created
[1:50:49 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: but its just a thing inside my head that i observe and go like 'goddamnit this character'
[1:51:25 AM] Silky Spectre: O.o
[1:51:47 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: i know
[1:51:48 AM] Silky Spectre: I'm just trying to find the groove of where I fit in amongst the other characters in the rp
[1:52:16 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: but lets say you flip from rebellion to obedient in a matter of 1 or 2 scenes
[1:52:24 AM] Silky Spectre: like the Duke and Duchess proved that they were pretty darn strong, if not outright stronger than me, (which they prolly are) so Alek will probably cool his jets around them
[1:52:36 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: then i might either think your character is petty minded and flips really quicfk
[1:52:52 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: or he is being played with too much OOC knowledge and considerations
[1:53:19 AM] Silky Spectre: this is true
[1:53:51 AM] Silky Spectre: it's something that I struggle with, as far as just chillaxing and playing my character the way he's meant to be played
[1:54:24 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: my advise is plan
[1:54:29 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: take some time to think about it
[1:54:38 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: check your virtues and flaws if you need to
[1:54:44 AM] Silky Spectre: but I'm also still in the phase of trying different things, and trying to figure out HOW Alek is meant to be played
[1:54:47 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: check your background
[1:54:51 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: hell even check abilities
[1:54:54 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: envision his life
[1:54:56 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: how he grew up
[1:54:57 AM] Silky Spectre: I didn't go into this with a solid plan of 'this is the kind of person my character is'
[1:55:04 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: and stick to a behavior
[1:55:14 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: double check how he'd treat each social status
[1:55:24 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: check how he'd treat strangers
[1:55:31 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: keep them in mind
[1:55:39 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: eventually when iron out the details
[1:55:45 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: you'll get in groove
[1:55:48 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: dont be in a rush
[1:55:54 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: you never get shit done in a rush like that.
[1:56:09 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: you dont make pretty things if you hurry up
[1:56:16 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: they come out as incomplete
[1:56:32 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: people like aramus and michael came a long way
[1:56:45 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: their players gave an immense amount of time into thinking about them
[1:56:54 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: i have no idea how shiki even did it
[1:56:58 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: as a fucking company president
[1:57:04 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: its so goddamned impressive
[1:57:10 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: that his character is so invested on
[1:57:40 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: so if you really love your character maybe one day he'll be actually cool, not a tryhard cool, and appreciated if you consider his traits enough
[1:57:55 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: otherwise, i can say that perhaps you will have to settle for one of those bad noble roles
[1:58:05 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: the choice is yours
[1:58:21 AM] Shokuhou Misaki: im not gonna force you, but your choice can led you straight out of the princess route
