sholio is hosting a commentfic promptfest! If you're in a fanfiction mood, you should run over to post some prompts or write some fills. It's only just started, but I'm watching it with interest.

In other news, I'm still playing The Hundred Line: Last Defense Academy! I'm up to day... eighty-six, I think? In the ranks of the stupid videogames I've played in the legacy of Danganronpa, it's not top-tier, but it's a solid contender; I'd put it around the level of Zanki Zero, below Master Detective Archives/AI: The Somnium Files and well above World's End Club.

I enjoy how much murderflirting Yugamu does. Constantly feeling his classmates out, trying to determine whether they'd be up for killing each other romantically. This guy really wants to find his kismesis.

Yugamu: You can't just throw your life away with the first murderer who takes an interest in you. Those one-night stabs may seem exciting, but there's so much more meaning in a committed relationship - one where you let your bloodlust grow over time. Trust me, your death has value. You need to treat it with respect.
Takemaru: Gotta hand it to ya: if ya take out all the serial killer crap, that almost sounds like good advice.

Yugamu and Darumi are definitely going to end up locked in a constant cycle of kinkily murdering each other and being revived.

Maybe that would cheer Darumi up, at least. Tem and I are very worried about Darumi. Her mental health is clearly an absolute wreck, but everyone just uncomfortably ignores all the alarming things she says because she's so creepy.

'Oh, man, they might have been despicable bastards, but they fought their way through so much hardship together!' Takemaru says, in tears, summing up my attitude to fictional characters.

I find myself wholly unsurprised that this game, which takes place over a hundred days, makes a point of celebrating day 69.

Riona: The Commander still has Ima.
Tem: It's an Imergency.

Congratulations to The Hundred Line for being the only game I've ever played that uses the word 'twincest' in dialogue.

I like how easy Yugamu is to get presents for. What's Murder Boy going to want? A scalpel, a ball gag and an iron maiden, obviously.
