NXX on their tendencies... (NSFW)

...on lovemaking

Images taken from the insta linked here, but apparently final source is here (please check out their lovely yaoi Genshin stuff!)

I was supposed to be writing something else but but I saw this so um yes I am sorry

Obligatory WARNING: NSFW At this point though I really think Dr. Vyn Richter being in these minific posts should be enough warning already, jus' sayin... XD

Luke

Lovemaking with Luke is like either a warm, gentle sunshine, or a soft night breeze that greets you when you when you step out of your office building after a particularly tiring, stressful work day.

It starts off relaxed, as casual as two old friends chatting about their day.

Luke would oftentimes take your sore feet onto his lap, massaging them, distracting you from the slight discomfort caused by skillful fingers pulling at the muscles, tiny bones, and tissues of your feet with his smartly-timed jokes that never get old despite being shared since your childhoods together.

Your feet all better, with a cute wiggling of your toes you would "accidentally" brush the crotch of his cargo pants, earning you a cute, flustered blush from his face--you never, ever get tired of the sight of his face glowing bright pink. It's beautiful, it's maddening how you never took notice of it during your school days when blushing Luke would have been at peak adorableness.

"Watson," he would call you out, mock-growling, then launch a full offensive of tickling your sides that would send you laughing and screaming for him to stop, please stop, you'd do anything just to stop the fingers wreaking havoc to your sides...

"Anything?"

Anything, you promise, and full-knowing what would happen next you throw your arms around his shoulders and pull him in for that sweet, sweet kiss that you have been waiting to happen all these time since the moment you drop by his quarters above his antiques store. Unfortunately for Luke's patrons (especially the girls who drop by to make googoo eyes at him) the store would be closed early for the day--the handsome, roguish proprietor will be fully booked by you for the next few hours, or longer depending on how generous you're feeling that day.

He would gather you effortlessly in those strong arms of his--gently carrying you like he would the most delicate and precious item ever displayed in his shop--never breaking your sweet, sloppy kissing until both of you get to his bed.

The scent of Luke permeating the bedsheets remind you of those salad days when you would jump into his bed in an effort to wake him up--he was notorious for sleeping in as a child--but somehow, somehow, his scent now triggers something else within you and so you beg him to lay his hands on you, for Luke to mark you...

Frantic hands peeling off layers of clothes. Feverish breathing. Quickening, pulsating heartbeats. So much had changed since the eight years when he checked out of your life as a lanky, awkward young teenager until he came back as that handsome man who took your heart away the moment you met by chance in the city.

Luke would plant several kisses on your bare skin: on the neck, your breasts, your stomach--everywhere he could mark you with using his lips. It would be as if he is making up for all of the lost opportunities when he could have given you so many kisses for the last eight years he had been away from you.

When the time comes for the main act of lovemaking, he would lace his strong fingers lovingly with your slender ones, holding your hands down on the sheets as he takes you with gentle, probing thrusts into your throbbing flesh.

He would shower you with sweet words of affirmation as he drives again and again into you--the words gradually turning into expressions of lust and need as soon as his thrusting picks up speed and, in one delicious moment, moan your name out loud as spills his seed onto your stomach.

His hands never let yours go all the while. As he would never let you go, not after finally finding you after eight long years of separation.

Marius

Lovemaking with you is Marius von Hagen's stress relief.

Marius is capable of many things--he is an immensely talented artist whose alter-ego's works easily fetch millions in the market; he is also a capable, functional budding leader of a vast conglomerate who easily handles people decades older than he is and could go toe to toe with the conglomerate's internal power struggles.

It is easy to forget that Marius is also only twenty-one years of age.

You are the only person in his life aside from his assistant who truly knows who Marius von Hagen is: a young man at the cusp of his adulthood, a boy who yearns to chase his dreams now nigh unattainable thanks to the immense burden put on his shoulders.

And so he latches onto you, the only big sister figure he has in his life, and also his biggest, baddest crush, his heroine who stood by him in his time of need when nobody else got his back.

Whenever Marius feels as if all the expectations placed on him would crush him alive, he frequently comes to your doorstep, seeking your sanctuary.

At nights after intensively stressful work days dealing with the duplicitousness of the capitalist world, he would drop by your apartment unannounced, frequently enough that traces of his presence slowly crop up in your place: his toothbrush, his mug, a change of clothing in case he decides to spend the night.

Marius, to the surprise of no one, is incredibly touch-starved. "Missy," he would always say in his mock-plaintive tone, "I need a hug."

Eventually it becomes your little ritual that whenever Marius steals away from the lofty towers of his workplace and into the sanctuary of your apartment, you would greet him with the tightest of hugs that you could muster.

And, brimming with all the pent up stress and frustration seeded into his worn and weary young heart, Marius would return your hug with a rough kiss, a kiss laced with his resentment--not targeted at you, of course--and impotent rage against the machinations that threaten to swallow Marius whole day by day by day by day.

"I'm sorry, Rosa." He would sometimes drop his pet name for you and call you by your actual name; a clear indicator of how badly things went for him at work.

"I need you."

===

There is only one way to address his pent-up stress, and it is you on your bed, writhing underneath him, his hands gripping your wrists tightly down on the sheets as he drives hard into you, again and again, moaning your name in the same intensity that he would like to use to curse, rail, and protest against the old men who are threatening to split apart the legacy of built by his family.

Marius would leave teeth marks on your neck, collarbone, your shoulders, all to stifle his frustration of having to bite back all of the things he wanted to say at work but couldn't as part and parcel of being burdened with such a tremendous responsibility.

And you accept all of it. Lovemaking with Marius does not always go like this--but when it does, you take it upon yourself to help him deal with things larger than he is.

You also know that in the next morning, Marius would make it up to you, focusing on your pleasure this time around with his tongue and those artful, artful fingers of his. You do not know how it came to be, but Marius's aftercare is incredible.

Artem

Lovemaking with Artem is, quite surprisingly, an exercise in endurance.

Artem had spent his most of his life traversing the straight and narrow path: the best in his field, youngest among the senior attorneys. He is so straight-laced and methodical that people around him have learned to talk and interact only with him when it comes to work.

What they didn't know--but you do--is that behind his business-only persona there is an immense romantic inside of him that yearned deeply for a human connection, a connection that he is rarely afforded except when he is with you.

You had your suspicions early on about his yearning for connection even before your relationship: while he remained standoffish with his co-workers, he would be secretly delighted when they came to him for anything not-work related, such as for his impeccable cooking, or when they approached him to do such unorthodox things such as representing the law firm in a stage play.

And, when your relationship finally started Artem would initiate physical connections with you: holding your hands as he guided you on how to properly handle knives; gentle touches as he drew a pumpkin on your face as part of Halloween festivities; guiding hands as he taught you how to fire a pistol.

It just so happens that you are the only one source of the human connection that he secretly yearns for, and this quite amusingly translates into him trying to make up for the sheer lack of connection during the times he is intimate with you:

By making love to you over and over until your knees give out. His hands over yours on the sheets, maximizing your skinship with him as he affirms your connection with him through repeated rounds of sex.

And Artem, as awkward as he is, also tended to depend on books whenever he has to learn about something he is not too familiar with. It is to your amusement to find out that he actually purchased more than a few books on the art of lovemaking and, for better or for worse he actually makes it a point to try out all positions, all techniques, that in one instance he spent more than three hours with you trying to perfect the art of eating you out that you had to beg for him to stop lest you pass out with overstimulation.

Artem is, for all intents and purposes, an awkward yet secretly passionate man.

You definitely do not want him to change.

Vyn

Vyn's lovemaking does not have a tendency.

Rather, he makes it a point that his lovemaking would be a novel experience for you as much as possible. You have experienced him pouring wine all over your naked body, he had blindfolded you more than a few times, he is definitely not squeamish about having sex with you during your period, and in a fit of fancy he has even marked you with own blood during sex.

Among many, many other things.

===

Vyn has mentioned earlier that dessert would be on the table. But when asked, he could only give vague answers about what dessert, and what table.

And now, laid out naked and helpless in his bed with your hands tied above your head, you learn exactly what dessert, and what table.

He sits beside you, fully clothed, complete with his white lab coat. Vyn's left arm is cradling a metal bowl filled with cold cream, which is being whisked to a peak with his right hand. "Dessert for tonight," he says, with his maddeningly gentle smile, "is you."

"Great. How can I eat myself?" you ask, playing along with his game.

Vyn lets out a soft laugh. "Simple."

His gaze turns predatory.

"You do not."

"So this dessert is only single-serving?"

"For me only, yes." The beatific smile returns to his face. "Ah, I think the cream is now done." He lifts the whisk to check for peaks. "Perfect," he says, making a show of licking the tip of the whisk while his golden eyes hold your gaze.

You gulp. "W-why are you still in your research center uniform?"

You note that he even still has his ID lanyard on. Vyn is literally wearing his full work uniform for tonight.

And if you were honest with yourself, you actually find it extremely sexy.

Vyn smiles, as if reading your thoughts. "I noticed you have been staring a lot when I'm wearing this. I'm just...indulging you."

"You demon."

"I think I do know, Vyn."

"You do not know the half of it yet."

Again, that immaculate grin dances on his lips. "Do not challenge me."

He spoons a bit of cream and slathers it on your breast. You expect him to smear the cream directly on your nipple, but instead he applies it on the skin directly next to it.

Vyn then dips onto the breast and laps up the cream, his wisps of silver hair brushing lightly onto your naked skin.

His tongue barely grazes your nipple.

Holding that pose, his lips grazing your breast, you see Vyn looking up at you through his glasses with a devious smile. He then flicks the tip of his tongue on your breast, but deliberately avoiding touching your nipple.

Oh shit.

"Did you want me to do something?" Vyn asks as he sits himself upright. "I'm open for..." the corner of his mouth turns up into a leer. "...suggestions."

Not wanting to give him the satisfaction of believing he has the upper hand, you remain silent.

"Safe word is macaron."

"Pardon?"

"Safe word is macaron," he repeats.

"Yes, I heard you the first time," you say, a bit incredulous. "Are you going to...um...whips and stuff?" You feel a mild dread, as you aren't ready for that kind of play.

"Of course not," Vyn said, spooning cream onto your other breast, avoiding the nipple once again. "The safe word isn't to stop me, but it is for me to untie your hands so you can have your way with me."

"Fuck you, Vyn," you say, this time impressed that he could come up with something so devious this time around.

"Oh, please do." His lips lightly suck on the cream off your breast, still not affording the erogenous nerve endings of your nipple the attention it deserves. His tongue sensuously traces the edges, the swell, but never touching the sensitive nerve endings that are begging for his sweet stimulation.

You bite back a groan.

Vyn then applies a generous amount of cream on your lower abdomen, just right above your pubic area. He then adjusts his position on the bed so he lies on his side, his face hovering over your naked crotch to lick off the cream with slow, languorous licks.

You squirm, feeling wetness gathering on your slit.

Vyn observes this in mild amusement. "You may want to use the safe word?" He gives your abdomen another lingering flick of his tongue.

You remain silent.

Smiling, he let his fingers brush your inner thighs, and leaves a trail of soft, wet kisses on the soft skin--stopping only just right next to your quivering sex.

And, as you have predicted, he slathers on cream just next to your vulva, and his tongue traces the edge of your sex--always teasing your most sensitive zones begging to be touched.

A sharp hiss escapes your teeth, and, somehow, you tug your hands hard enough that his handkerchief tying your hands to the bedpost above you come undone.

Vyn sees this, and swiftly catches your wrists with his hand, pinning your hands once again above your head.

"You should play by the rules," he whispers to your ear before nipping at your earlobe. "It is more fun that way."

His other hand reaches down to let his fingers lightly touch the edges of your vulva.

You breath shudders at the infuriating play.

"Fine. Macaron."

Chuckling, Vyn's hand releases your wrists. "See? It is--"

He does not get to finish whatever he wants to say, for you, with all the strength that you have, push him onto the bed so you could straddle his waist.

Vyn falls onto his back on the bed so hard his glasses almost fall off his face, his white lab coat spread out underneath him in such a way that it turns you on so immensely you could not comprehend why.

You lick your lips. "I'm going to have my way with you now."

"Ah--be careful with the buttons!"

Finally got Atmospherics in 2 pulls, then did another 3 pulls on SotN banner out of boredom and got Marius??

Truly blessed by gacha gods, though it feels like they're pulling my luck out of other aspects of my life that actually matter.

But hey, at least I have 2D men

Kinda sad to say goodbye to the world of Olympia Soirée as long as that game was.

Not sure how to fill the void now, maybe I'll finally get back to Collar X Malice, the most revered otome out there that I for some reason got really bored of (and dropped in the middle of Mineos route). I feel like I should at least finish a couple of routes but it's just not been my jam at all even though objectively speaking it's a very well rounded vn :(

Can't believe I had to go through all these dysfunctional men just to get to the boy that cooks good

I'm finally done with the game! It's been a wild ride with a lot of mixed feelings but now I'm a little sad it's all over (though I've still got some memoirs to go through! Gonna save them for later)

Himuka and Akaza route thoughts, spoilers ahead

Himuka was very sweet. Alas I struggled to see him as a love interest with the design being what it is, and a lot of the route felt like I'm hanging out with a child even if the opposite was true. Still, delving deeper into worldbuilding kept me interested and learning about Himuka's true identity was a trip :'D I did get a little confused with all these godly supernatural things happening and it was hard to wrap my head around all that - things seemed to just go from dire to Himuka just gaining a new body in a blink of an eye and I...don't think i really processed that? Tbh I would've been fine with him not coming back, but hey, it's an otome, after all.

Regarding the bad ends, Sleeping Beauty end really soured the route for me. Involving Hairi in that was just...so messed up.

Frankly, I was very tired of all the sexual assault stuff in general by then and I hated having to face Kanan and Nagusa in every single route as they repeatedly came up with shitty things to do to Olympia.

Hence I was very glad that in Akaza's route Nagusa had his token 2 second cameo and proceeded to fuck off. If only Kanan did the same :v

Anyway, Akaza's route definitely delivered and felt like a reward for suffering through Kanan's (and other guys') bullshit in previous routes. At some point you just want a guy who is cute and well-adjusted and capable and with a tragic curse that is in no way his fault. WHAT'S NOT TO LOVE. His steamy scene was amazing, although it did take Olympia entirely too long to actually consent to it instead of pretend-hating him which has been A Problem throughout the game

Most of the mythology was neatly wrapped up this time, though of course with a lot of GOD LOGIC. It was very much a beautiful fairy tale and I feel like thinking too hard about any of this might ruin my impressions of it, so I won't.

I will say that with Akaza being so keen to bring Change to the island, it's a bit of a shame that his route was entirely based in mythology and GOD DRAMA. It'd be cool to at least have some kind of epilogue about the life on the island improving for everyone. It might be in the short stories I haven't read yet, but with the game placing such importance on social justice, you'd think they'd actually resolve it in the final route instead of just going "and then the sun got brighter"?

Would've been nice to see Himuka's hIdeous form he kept going on about, but again, otomes are all about things looking pretty (while terribly, ugly events transpire)

DOUMA. WORLD'S OKAYEST DAD.

What a fascinating character. I'm not entirely sure his actions are justified (treating your daughter like shit for 13 years and pretending you're not related because PROTECTION? HMM.) but I really enjoyed all of his appearances and constantly wondered what his deal is.

Anyway, I've enjoyed this game even when it frustrated me. I think this is my general experience with playing otome games - constantly wincing and suffering and yet still playing because sometimes a cute tsundere surprises you and, idk, it's just nice to feel something. ANYTHING.

Damn, finished Himuka's route and while I enjoyed it for the most part, one of those bad ends really crossed the line for me to the point where I have Some Regret about recommending the game to some folk.

I know bad ends are all about shock value but... :S

Some thoughts on the first 4 routes of Olympia Soirée

Ok, I've finally finished the first 4 routes, good and bad endings (though I have yet to check all the memoirs) and I figured I'd do a little review before I move onto Himuka and Akaza.

My play order wasn't the recommended one since I just wanted to start with the boy I vibed with in the common route (Kuroba!), so I ended up doing Kuroba - Riku - Yosuga - Tokisada. I wouldn't say it ruined my experience - if anything I liked doing Tokisada's route last as it delved deeper into some of the games' antagonists arcs.

For people who want to go from the least to most emotionally heavy routes, the recommended Riku-Tokisada-Yosuga-Kuroba order is the best option. It should be said that all routes so far deal with some heavy topics of discrimination, fantasy racism/classism, rigid traditional gender roles and so on, and some routes feature dubcon and SA, so that's something to be aware of if you're thinking of picking this up.

With that said, here's some opinions!

The common route was surprisingly lengthy and didn't have any choices, however I really enjoyed it and thought it was well paced. I enjoyed just experiencing the story without stressing out about which guy I would end up with. The journey of Olympia from "a doll" to a person capable of making friends, learning about the world and relating to others was great and she got more development in the common route than Steam Prison's Cyrus got in the entire game (I can't help but compare these games as the premise is similar) Like everyone else I did get annoyed by repetitive flashbacks - they weren't quite as common in character routes but happened enough to be irritating. I'm also not super keen on the sidekick (sorry Daifuku) but I realise Olympia needed someone to talk at. Plus, their backstory was quite cute.

I did find Olympia's personality a little inconsistent at times, as she went from being forward and assertive (and fun) in Riku's and Tokisada's route to a typical timid MC with Kuroba and Yosuga.

As for LIs, I'm gonna discuss spoilers in all 4 initial routes, so don't click if you haven't played them all :)

Ok, here we go.

Riku

PRECIOUS BABY.

Seems like many enjoyed Riku's route, I did too. In a classical tsundere fashion he made a terrible first impression, but after seeing his softer side in Kuroba's route I was intrigued and wanted to learn more about him. (on that note, can we talk about how he's almost absent in everyone's routes? I guess unlike someone like Kuroba he doesn't make for a fun quirky side character, but still..would've been nice) I feel like the story lingered for ages on Olympia trying to figure out his identity but once Riku became an actual character in his story things really picked up.

I loved his backstory, loved his chemistry with Olympia and loved seeing him grow as a person. That final conflict resolution was extremely random (RANDOM WAVE just washed the bad guy away? alright), but I'm starting to think none of the writers actually know how to conclude a story because it just seems to be a Thing that happens with everyone.

Tokisada

I left Tokisada for last because I really couldn't get myself to play a route with a guy that looks 12. In the end, I did like his route - I loved the moment he accepted his role as a professinal wifeguy. Go you, Tokisada :') His CGs were really nice and steamy but they definitely aged him up (he even sounded different) during those moments for things to be less weird, which makes me wonder...why make him look and sound like a little kid in the first place? I know he's on his coming of age arc, but still.

One of the things I found most fascinating in this route was Kanan and Kaina's relationship and Kanan's revelation that a certain bodypart fell off from haku?? And i was like..no...it can't be..and then I got to the bad ending. And apparently there's more on that in the memoir which I've not read. As expected, the conflict was kinda poorly resolved with Kanan never really getting the punishment he deserves. This game really doesn't like killing people in good endings (unless they don't have sprites i guess)

I would like to nominate Bad Ending with Kanan here as the most fucked up one in the entire game 8) I love a bad ending that isn't just sad, but also kinda twisted and makes you go "wait what...HOW?? WHY???" and that one was definitely it.

Yosuga

Ah, Yosuga. I wanted to like you so much. You were so fun in everyone else's routes. Alas I'm afraid Yosuga works better as a wingman for me.

I mean, I suspected he has a dark backstory and I actually liked the actual resolution with The Baddies not actualy being The Baddies. And I liked his connection to Olympia through Tsukuyomi.

But the incident on Tennyu island, and then him holding an actual grudge over women of the white killing some purple guy seemed so illogical and gross and not consistent with the rest of his personality. I could understand him having a deathwish and being depressed and traumatised, but it could have been handled better - maybe if Olympia actually stood up to him? This is also where Olympia's "hair colour change for yes, murder for no" as a replacement for concent became pretty tiresome.

There were some touching moments later but I never quite pieced together what he's like as a person in the end.

Weirdly enough I really liked one of the bad endings. It was..probably one of the spiciest scenes in the entire game so far?? I swear to god, Olympia actually voices her wishes for once and then they fuck and I guess she kills him off-camera which doesn't seem like her, but also. It was hot, so I'll allow it. Sorry, Yosuga.

Kuroba

Favourite Boy in a Non-Favourite Route.

Like I said, I loved Kuroba since his very first appearance. I'm in the minority in that I like his design the most (idk i like his short hair, makes him stand out? and his expressions are so cute? and he's handsome more than he's cute?? also The Voice) and i like flirty characters as long as being flirty isn't the only thing I've got going for them. In Kuroba's case the flirtiness was definitely just a superficial trait and he was funny and smart and capable. His first half of the route was a lot of fun with all their little courtship and dates, and then... it kinda got ruined.

I still don't know why Kuroba had to dramatically proclaim how he's using Olympia. I thought he was roped into it but I don't think he was? And after the whole Nagusa thing happened he was really inappropriately posessive/aggressive which pissed me off a bit. He definitely redeemed himself later and that CG with him kneeling in front of Olympia was adorable. As always the story did not resolve in a 100% satisfying way with Nagusa not getting what he deserves - it made me pretty angry.

I would be ok with Nagusa living if he got Tokijikutan Ne treatment for his haku. Surviving and yet losing every stupid superficial thing he cared about? That'd be amazing. But no, I guess we can't have that. (I actually forgot exactly what happened with him towards the end...guess I should've been taking notes)

Looking back at it, Kuroba's bad ends are my least favourites too, I guess I just don't find getting murdered very sexy, but i guess some people might be into it. I JUST THINK HE DESERVED BETTER.

I should also mention that since Douma was very much positioned as the Big Bad in the common route and Kuroba was my first, I did believe Olympia when she didn't want to trust him. I fully expected Douma to have some kind of diabolical plan when he asked Kuroba to murder Nagusa and I was excited to see what it was when I did the bad ends. Of course, no such plan existed, and now that I've played through other routes I know that Douma's just a grumpy ol' dad who gives no fucks. (Unless we're gonna learn more about him in the remaining 2 routes) Anyway, this just makes that whole resolution so much dumber in retrospect. I feel like Kuroba's best ending never really came to fruition and instead we just got an ok one.

I can only hope for a fandisk to give me more Kuroba content v_v

And now, to finish the last remaining routes. Not looking forward to Himuka as he's just way too young and feminine looking for my tastes, and I just can't imagine CGs fixing that the way they did with Tokisada. But I hope the Plot will make up for it. Akaza on the other hand...I have high hopes for him :D Fingers crossed!
