l_the_fangirlYes, that means "I Am Not A Cat."
I'm not sure when that came up.
But anyway, Hikkomori: The Melancholy of Seiko Aino, part II. Yes, feel free to throw things at me for that.
17 Hope (3 dice)
Obsessive Hobby: Dating Sims 16 (3 dice)
Rescuer: Crusader 14 (3 dice)
Rescuer: Kindly 23 (Akira, Ex-Boyfriend, 3 dice)
Imaginary Friend: Tokho doll that occasionally "comes to life to offer advice" (Current demeanor: Depressing) 16
Rolling for Akira, I get: 28 - gain 1d10 Hope from talking with him.
Rolling for Tokho, I get: Demeanor of 5 - trying to depress me. With my last action, I try to placate Tokho, with a result of 10. It is now Friendly at 7, and tries to cheer me up: with a roll of 17, it succeeds, I gain 1d10 hope, and Tokho becomes Very Pleased (8).
Rolling for Dating Sims, I get: 23 - waste two actions. One left.
I gain a total of (2d10) = 12 hope, for a total of 29. Things are looking up.

The true ending to Ori Ochi Onoe is brilliant. No spoilers, but let's say I didn't see it coming, but in retrospect it made perfect sense. I blazed through it and I was finished with it by 4 - amazing. Next in line is Gakuen Dream.
I told Tokho about it afterwards, and then I asked her for advice on how to deal with... him. Akira. I still wasn't sure what I was going to do. I wanted to talk to him, but... well, I'm not exactly as good looking as I was then. I've gained weight.
"Why are you asking me?" was Tokho's response.
"You have more experience with this," I said. "I mean, you and Kei and just... just a good couple. You're happy together."
"...He's a dork."
"Who?"
"Kei."
"He's an adorable dork. He's adorkable, if you will."
Tokho smiled at that. "God knows why I like him."
"Yeah, but you do."
"You have Akira's number," Tokho said. "Couldn't hurt to call him."
I really couldn't argue with that, but I was scared. She helped walk me through what to say, and I called.
He... was between homework, and he was happy to hear from me. I told him that I had beaten O3, and that it was good, and I think I said "I am really nervous about talking to you, it's been a while," but as one long word in one breath.
He took that as a compliment, thank God.
"I miss you too," he said. "We should meet for coffee, or something. And talk about dating sims, I guess, just as long as we also talk about something else."
"I'll... try," was my response. I meant try to go out. Where there are people. Who aren't Akira.
"Please do," he said, and we said goodbye and hung up.
I really will. I feel good about this.

The plot thickens. Also, I know am not messing up the rules; I would have probably wasted all her time on Elven Relations or something if I did it right yesterday, ha.
Also, I appear NOT to be running into the "Lose all otaku traits due to meddling Rescuers" feedback loops. I AM running into a raised hope feedback loop, though. Which is interesting.
