    The White Elephant in the Room Playground

    Great, he thinks I'm insane. All things considered, he'd probably correct. "Listen. I don't fucking know why either. Myself and a handful of other people were kidnapped to this place for a so-called christmas party, with myself being involuntary put into this fucking ralts body in the process...

    The White Elephant in the Room Playground

    Abigail shrugged. "That's so normal that, with all the bullshit I have experienced over the past few days, it's almost weird. There are just people who live here? Normally? With jobs? You don't, like, die if you open presents early or get killed by pseudoscientific quantum bullshit if you try to...

    The White Elephant in the Room Playground

    "Wait." Abigail blinked. "Have you been here this whole time? I had been looking to see if I could reactivate the lift, but now I have other questions. So, so many other question. First off, do you live here?"

    The White Elephant in the Room Playground

    Okay, okay... Abigail wasn't exactly surprised to see that her trick didn't work, but it had been worth a shot. She did notice the operator cabin, though. She tried to open the door, but she had a gut feeling it would be locked.

    The White Elephant in the Room Playground

    Abigail figured getting up to the rental shop was going to be an important step in figuring out what was going on. Unfortunately, between the toxicity of iron to her, her general lack of understanding regarding ski lift anatomy, and a lack of engineering expertise in general led to her being...

    The White Elephant in the Room Playground

    "Wait, hold on. You did this to me? W-Why? C-Can I go back to normal? And why would you do this to me in the first place? I'm trapped in a body that's not mine, in a world beyond my comprehension. You think that's festive? Then fuck you! How fucking dare you do this me!" Abigail was shaking...

    The White Elephant in the Room Playground

    "Darkwhite is... gone. As of last night." Abigail paused and thought about the issue. "Some of us are... or were humans. That could explain the lack of soul signatures. Maybe we didn't get souls when we were turned into other things?"

    Review Blitz 2021

    Finished the other half of my Suitoraiku High review. 4 endings and conveniently 1127 words. Already nicked the bonus for the first half, so no bonus. (If this ended up being the most points I get from any one fic for Blitz I'd hide in a corner forever. Thank goodness for Eternal Shadows.)

    Pokémon Sutoraiku High

    Okay, I didn't stream anything but I've done a few other routes. I'll try to "organize" it into something that isn't babble this time. This probably counts more as a comment on the genre of VNs in general, but I like messing around with all the timelines here. Reminds me of playing 999 when I...

    Review Blitz 2021

    Reviewed Suitoraiku High because why the fuck not? Does one route count as one chapter? What if they're similar routes? At 670 words that'd make it either 1 or 2 base points, plus the bonus.

    Pokémon Sutoraiku High

    So, I have discovered that this is a thing that exists. I am so very intrigued. I've never played a dating sim, but Wikipedia says Ace Attorney counts as a VN so I'm clearly an expert on the genre anyways. I've even heard of Hatoful Boyfriend, so really I'm overqualified for this position. I...

    The White Elephant in the Room Playground

    Abigail responded from over by the gifts. "Gimme a second, I have an idea! I just need to see if I can find their bingo card!" "Yes, that's exactly what I see, which is why I can tell how someone is aligned: Based on wether or not they're getting coal. So, that still begs the question of why a...

    The White Elephant in the Room Playground

    "I don't know what we do now. Even if we make it out of this game..." and if this is real, "I don't know what I would do." Abigail sighed. "I guess there's nothing I can do to help you, but... at least we're not alone in all this. Maybe after all this is over I could be arranged to be dropped...

    The White Elephant in the Room Playground

    Abigail yelled at the top of her lungs, as if her words could reach the dead if only they were loud enough. "Noci. Ta. Lain! When I asked if you had redirected me, I would have appreciated... A. Fucking. Answer." Now, their only way to speak to those no longer among them would be to ask Lee to...

    The White Elephant in the Room Playground

    Abigail took a step back, as if she'd been physically hit by the words. That was the exact answer she'd been hoping not to hear, from the exact person she'd been hoping not to hear it from. "Y-You don't know what it is at all? That's what vaporeon saw when he scanned what was supposedly 'your'...

    The White Elephant in the Room Playground

    Abigail felt like this didn't bode well for her, seeing as she'd thus far failed to uphold the end of her deal that involved... well, actually catching anyone. She'd gotten nothing but clean results thus far... If someone was falsely clearing people... She had to admit that there was a...

    The White Elephant in the Room Playground

    Abigail pressed the Lens of Nia against Gen's gift. Anything but coal, please... The image of the wrapping paper and box inside the lens faded to translucency, revealing the contents. It was... a blanket? She slid the lens around the surface of the gift to see if there was anything else. In...

    The White Elephant in the Room Playground

    G-Gen? No. It couldn't be Gen. He was her favourite figment of her envenomed imagination... Oh. Could that have been why the Nihilego venom had let him comfort her? Why it had let her have that sense of solidarity? So that she could be betrayed. It made too much sense. It was just setting her...

    After a moment, the screen reverted. "Nevermind. Changing back to Noctilain."

    Abigail didn't like the look of that board. "I'd like to experimentally change my vote to Nilam, to see what happens."
