Round 3 | Poll 5

~ Note: This poll is being done out of a genuine love and affection for these types of characters! Please keep that in mind when adding commentary. Due to a tie in the previous round, this one is a three-way!

Propaganda under the cut!

Chloe:

~ She’s a main antagonist in a children’s TV show, so of course she’s annoying. She’s the MC’s rival, and she behaves like a basic, rich teenager. She could’ve be a quite interesting character, sadly the writers didn’t really try :( The show’s writer said in an interview that Chloé was created to be as unpleasant as possible.

~ literally just your stereotypical bratty rich teenager. The class is so done with her antics in the first three seasons and the show keeps trying to make her like, “evil” but she’s being puppeted by all the other actual big bads and also people aren’t really afraid of her? And her “evil” deeds are literally no stakes to the other characters no matter and the “good” characters can beat her pretty easily so she’s just. actually a nobody who whines and complains and tries to do shit to people are so done with her and i adore her very much she deserved so much better

Lestat:

~ something is so wrong with him

~ Insufferable horrible fantastic man. Wants an open relationship but only for him.

~ won’t answer any questions about vampires. baby traps his boyfriend by turning a child into a vampire. becomes a rockstar and then brags about it all the time. bites people without asking. refers to himself as the Brat Prince. laughs at things that aren’t funny.

~ literally a detriment to everyone around him also one of his actual names is The Brat Prince

Dio:

~ He dresses like a circus ringleader, he is full of himself and full of shit, he doesn’t hesitate to kill a child. He manipulates and lies to serve his goal which is the destruction of mankind <3

#absolutely love how the little shit Dio keeps winning #he's so punchable #DIO SWEEP #zero escape #virtue's last reward

if you want to support autistic people you really do need to shut up about picky eaters. sorry

#not autistic but im almost certain i have arfid and adhd #sorry for the vent #its the way ive basically been told by my family my whole life that #no one will ever accomodate my needs and every person i befriend or try to date is not going to put up with me #as if i chose to be like this #i've always wished i could just be normal so i can stop being a burden on other people #which i know is entirely wrong and i shouldn't feel like a burden because #nothing's wrong with me #i'm just neurodivergent #i never even knew arfid was a thing until last year and the way i felt immensely validated #like there's actually a name for this #and there's other people similar to me #i miiigght need therapy 💀 #ew vulnerability on main #ignore this

i am incredibly desperate to play some more wlw visual novels... or any sapphic dating sims rlly

i recently bought little goody two shoes (not just for the sapphic content, i also rlly like the psychological horror and ik most of the endings are bad lol) and i do plan on playing bg3 eventually (mostly for karlach) but other than those two, the only visual novels i've played with either pick-your-own-pronouns or a fem mc with at least one woman or enby LI are:

- the arcana

- life after magic

- our life now & forever (just a demo rn, and i am patiently waiting for 2025 🙏)

- mystic messenger????? (except this one hardly COUNTS cuz JAEHEE IS IN DENIAL. CHERITZ GIVE HER A ROMANTIC ROUTE WHY DOES SHE HAVE TO FRIENDZONE US 💔)

- touchstarved (there's mhin who's nb, and sen but we won't be seeing anything of her in the demo since she's gonna be a dlc romaceable character 😭)

(there's also obey me but i lost my account years ago and i don't wanna start over from scratch just to get to thirteen im sorry)

pleeeaasseee if anyone knows of any other visual novels with wlw content i would love to know 😭 preferably free cuz im broke and jobless 💀

#ive been playing vn after vn for like 2 or 3 months now i might need help #they're rlly fun 😭 #but most of the dating sims that are actually good have a mostly male cast of LIs #which is fine but... can we get some more women? pretty please? #life after magic #touchstarved game #the arcana #mystic messenger #our life now and forever #lesbian #sapphic games #sapphic #visual novel

[idiasmentalhealth]

yo so this is really weird but im tryna think of names inspired by cozier songs and I see that you have a case of the hyper fixation so if it suits your fancy could you perhaps like think of some (no pressure at all btw)

i'm not entirely sure if i'll be much help but i will try my best :)

and p.s. a lot of his song reference stories i don't know much about and i'm willing to do some research to understand it but not that much so 😭

(edit note: i wrote this last night and stayed up till like 3am i think and i was gonna proofread it today but i was too busy/lazy and forgot to and i don't wanna take too long to reply so here you go good luck lol) i probably put way more effort into this than you wanted me to from the ask buttt too late now

ok so i'll start with the easier songs (the ones with actual names in the lyrics/title)

1.

"But, still, the mind, rejectin' this new empty space

Fills it with somethin' or someone

No closer could I be to God Or why he would do what he's done"

"What you're given, what you live in Darlin', it finds a way to live in you And your heart, love, has such darkness I feel it in the corners of the room"

Selby: gender-neutral name meaning "manor village; from the willow farm"

note that these songs are inspired by the fictional character De Selby. Hozier describes him as "-this philosopher, this kind of scholar, who's kind of part genius part lunatic. He sees the world through a very dream-like logic." its up to you if you want to name ur character after a song inspired by another character or not lol

here's a cool little description of the name on thebump.com: "Selby is a gender-neutral name of English origin, meaning “manor village.” Softly alluding to a place of dwelling in Yorkshire, England, Selby is a wholesome moniker that feels like home the minute it’s spoken. Selby is also a name linked to Old Norse history and points to a person or thing “from the willow farm.” Known for its connections to the Underworld and Otherworld, willow trees, in all their cosmic wonder, put realms beyond imagination right at our fingertips. Both an abode and a bridge to a land existent only in legends, Selby inspires us to look beyond what our eyes can see but reminds us to stay grounded while we’re at it!"

and hozier's other song "Would That I" also references willow trees so in a way it's inspired by 3 songs?

2.

"Do you think I'd give up

That this might've shook the love from me

Or that I was on the brink?

How could you think, darling, I'd scare so easily?

Now that it's done

There's not one thing that I would change

My life was a storm, since I was born

How could I fear any hurricane?"

"Heaven is not fit to house a love (like you and I)"

This song is about the story of Francesca da Ramini in the 2nd circle of hell. Basically Francesca has an affair with Paolo Malasta because of how unpleasant her husband (Paolo's brother) is. Eventually they get found out and her husband kills them. She's saying that even though she's in the 2nd circle of hell (where lustful souls are punished by somekind of hurricane) she doesn't regret loving Paolo and would do it all again. - a summary of a comment on genius.com about the lyrics

Francesca: feminine name meaning "free."

similar names: Francis, Francisca/o

you could also use Paolo (meaning "small; humble) if you want

3.

"I do not have wings, love, I never will

Soarin' over a world you are carryin'

If these heights should bring my fall

Let me be your own

Icarian carrion

If the wind turns, if I hit a squall

Allow the ground to find its brutal way to me

If I should fall, on that day

I only pray, don't fall away from me"

clearly referencing icarus, the man who flew too close to the sun

Icarus: "follower; the one who reaches the sky"

4.

"I'd be the voice that urged Orpheus

When her body was found"

"And I'd be the immediate forgiveness

In Eurydice

Imagine being loved by me"

Orpheus: "the darkness of night"

Eurydice: "wide justice"

similar names: Alice, Justyce, Justin/e

ok now to get more creative

or not. quite a few of his songs reference light/darkness and there are a LOT of names that reference either one of those 😭 here's some examples:

light/shinning/clear/etc:

Phoebe, Clara, Nora, Lucian, Lucius, Elena, Ayla, Claire, Bodhi, Lucia

dark/shadow/etc:

Adriana, Achlys, Akmad, Apollo, Azazel, Asra, Carey, Colin, Corvina, Cronan

now back to "Would That I," he describes 2 kinds of loves in this song: the willow tree and the fire. thr willow being a past love, and the fire being the new that burnst away the attachment to the old. or something like, that im tired.

could always use Willow, which i think is a pretty name.

other names meaning willow tree: Dozier (haha), Arava, Salton, Wellesley, Liu, Wilford, Osier, Vide, Lian, Verba

names meaning fire: Ember, Bedelia (goddess of fire in Celtic mythology), Bridget, Calida, Cyra, Enya, Eliane, Elidth, Elidi, Hestia, Helia, Idalia, Mehri, Soleil, Seraphina, Oriane, Nina (also mentioned in "Nina Cried Power" which is a protest song)

speaking of Nina Cried power, a list of all the names in the song just in case: Nina Simone, Billie Holiday, Mavis Staples, Curtis Mayfield, Patti Smith, John Lennon, James Brown, B.B. King, Joni Mitchell, Pete Seeger, Marvin Gaye, Bob Dylan, Woody Guthrie. These are all names of musicians who contributed to the battle for equality over the years (Civil Rights Movement and other such protests) not sure if you'd want to name your character one of these since it wouldn't exactly be naming them after a Hozier song, but i felt like i should mention them anyways

other names mentioned in song lyrics but i'm too tired to do more researching rn: Cher, Atlas, Fred, Sergei (Sergei Polunin, the dancer in the music video for "Movement")

I think everyone’s routes are going to have a degree of “I can fix him,” but to be honest, my MCs aren’t doing too well themselves.

I’m plopping them at the Touchstarved LIs’ feet like, “Here. Fix him.”

#yeah mischa and the LIs are gonna make EACH OTHER worse #gotta love that #her fatal flaw is her self destructive behavior #this adorable little shit is too much a public safety hazard to help anyone #touchstarved oc

[idiasmentalhealth]

me: "i like daydreaming and imagining scenarios a lot"

my honest reaction:

#but yes #i need to snuggle with him #he's adorable #a date with death #two and a half studios #grim reaper
