Turns out, all they want for the holidays is....
"Welcome to the Literature Club! 💓"
- Thread starter Tuxedo Prime
- Start date
Via Querxes' Tube of You channel, another wholesome winter image.
(Complete with Festivus pole?)

And look who popped over to celebrate today!
I'm not altogether certain if 2024 can't end fast enough, or if 2025 is a year to watch out for.
But for tonight, how about we toast our survival?

Well, it's festival week...

I can't really blame a temporal loop for the delay in posting. 
That said, it seemed a bit remiss of me to not post here on Valentine's Day -- after all, the tagline for the game was "Will you write the way into her heart?"
It's actually quite easy to get a perfect poetry score at this point. 
Well, hopefully MEDdMI got her ice cream, and we can all enjoy something I found after the day: a sort-of-wishful-sequel-hook fan vid that takes some of those hints at a greater virtual world -- and uses them to make someyhing just like the base game (in that it starts wholesome and adds dollops of puzzles and spoopiness to the anime-styled confection).
There are more videos to share, as it turns out. February was a busy month for DDLC fandom, which only makes sense, after all.
But for now, a belated Valentine's Day Special:

There's something new going on in gaming. I've alluded to it elsewhere on the Allspark board, but the short of it that a new virtual-waifu-maintenance game came out, and it turns out to lead to a whole exploration of dark secrets with characters not being entirely as first advertised.
Which, though it's not a visual novel, has drawn the inevitable comparisons, of course. (And as Monika After Story is in the other aforementioned category, the comparisons grow a bit stronger.)
I'm not sure if it will require a new thread or not, but there's already some mods and an interview that may clarify things... or not.

I can honestly say that I did not see this development coming....
On a tangent, I've been thinking about trying out Slay the Princess. Psychological horror game with a misleading lady. Just waiting for a sale on Switch.
As it so happened, Vannamelon played that game as well, though I've not watched her playthrough video of it.
This is shaping up to be a busy and unpredictable year. Who could have thought, when Dan Salvato first decided to subvert the trope of "cute girls doing cute things", that some of the very fandom that wanted to free these characters from their digital confines are now seeking escape from our reality into the more superficially comforting virtual spaces? "So my waifu thinks that the oven is for storing power tools, at least I only have to deal with a lack of Cinamorolls in the market...."
Natsuki: "Wait, who even does that?"
Vanna presents another game session with Ghost Yuri.
I'm still not sure what exactly is going on, or why. Though I have a feeling it may be linked to both 2024 channel business and the New Game on Steam....
