THE DATING SIM MEME
"I must return to my people with the spoils of war, lay my bloodied sword at the feet of my great king,
and celebrate my conquest of all the lands from here to distant Macedonia!"


Congratulations, you're stuck in a dating sim. Hilarious text options pop up out of thin air after every question
and trigger phrase, and you can't feel creeped out by it. You better choose the right answers or...well you know what will happen.

♥Your character is the protagonist of their thread.♥
♥Each responding character will supply a list of two to four options for them to choose from.♥
♥???♥
♥Jam it in? ...or not. It's entirely up to you.♥

Kirino's smile fades into a sad expression and his shoulders droop a little.

I'd rather not talk about it, if that's okay. Not here, at least.

Oh great, he's sad now.

>> 'Should I risk pressing it further?'

"W- Well, there's no one here but us. And it looks like you could really do with someone to talk to."

[ And he kind of wants to be that person. ]

Kirino's eyes widen a little when he hears that, but he goes ahead and gives in.

He tells you about his family situation: how his dad walked out on the family, and how his mother has to work several jobs to support herself and Kirino, and how he almost never sees her anymore.

He talks about how his mother has made promises that they would spend time together on holidays or when she has days off, but the promises always end up broken.

He talks about how he gets jealous, seeing other kids having fun with their families, when he essentially lives by himself.

Neither of you are sure when, but at some point, he starts crying. By the end of it, he's trying to wipe those tears away, embarrassed.


S-sorry... I got going and I just couldn't stop myself...

[ He starts to feel bad that he forced all of this out. Kariya steps up to Kirino and hesitates for a split second before giving him a tight hug. ]

"It's okay. At least it's not bottled up inside anymore, right?" [ He offers a smile. ]

"Besides, you can always call me if you want someone for company. I'd love an excuse to get out of the orphanage." [ He might not know Kirino's kind of family problem, but he understands Family Problems. It's not a pretty thing. ]

Kirino returns the hug and buries his face into your shoulder. Looks like he needs to calm down before he can say anything.

> Rub his back soothingly.
> Keep quiet.
> "... Sorry."

>> "Keep quiet."

[ He's a little too scared to screw up to do anything else but be there. ]

After a while, Kirino finally looks up again.

... Thanks, Kariya.

He seems a bit happier now. He thinks for a moment or so before pressing a grateful kiss to your cheek.

"No problem."

[ He wasn't expecting the kiss, so a blush follows it but Kariya smiles through it.

There's a pause before he returns one to Kirino's forehead. ]

I... I think I'll take you up on that visiting offer.

... Ah... by the way... there's something else that's been weighing rather heavily on my mind lately, too.

He seems nervous.

"But only if you want to talk about it." [ there's more?? ]

He smiles.

Don't worry. I want to talk about this. Especially since it concerns... us.

He takes a deep breath, presumably to calm himself.

I was wondering if you would... consider the possibility of us... being... more than just friends.

In other words... yep, it's a love confession. Apparently, Kirino can't take the embarrassment and starts inching away.

Prevent him from leaving?

> Yes
> No

[ O- Oh. Oh well.

Kariya can't say he wasn't thinking that himself at any point, but he wasn't expecting it now. Especially not since- and then they-

But Kirino, why are you inching away? ]


>> Yes

"W- wait."

[ Yes, Kirino is getting dragged back by the sleeve. ]

"I- I would... like it if we became m- more than just friends t- too." [ His face is very red. Like a tomato. ]

Kirino's expression brightens and he wraps his arms around you in a tight hug.

The bond between you and Kirino has grown stronger than ever before. Congratulations, you are now "romantically involved" with Kirino Ranmaru.
