This Is As Deliberate As Can Be

THE ADVISOR'S GAME ;

[DEMO]

You are an assassin, a professional, a contract killer. The pay is good, and your clientele are more than happy to keep your identity well under wraps. You take whatever work comes your way, and you don't ask questions.

Until.

An anonymous job offer. An envelope with cash, an image of your target with surprisingly crisp quality, and a non-descript note, left on the doorstep of your home.

'Kill the eldest royal for the other half of your pay.'

That's how you ended up here. Undercover in the royal palace. As the newly appointed royal advisor.

---

Are you a bloodthirsty killer, or do you kill out of pure necessity? Do you want to fish around for your mysterious employer, or do you want to live in blissful ignorance?

Make or break alliances, and maybe (reluctantly) fall for someone, as you navigate the intricacies of royal life, all while trying to figure out exactly why you were sent on such a risky job (and by who).

Do try not to get fired, and good luck. ★

"The Advisor's Game" is an 18+ (for mentions of death/violence, non-descript gore, etc.) mystery-romance, with 5 (subject to change) gender-selectable romance options, as well as cast of characters to befriend or antagonise.

[note; one RO will be gender-locked non-binary, however all ROs will be romanceable by any gender of MC]

[more under the cut]

ROMANCE OPTIONS;

[AGES]

A. Bellefleur ; Aleron - Alize / the crown royal (your target) / m/f

The (supposedly) well-loved eldest child to the reigning monarchs, they appear in public regularly and often participate in council meetings— clearly someone takes issue with this...probably.

A. has lightly freckled ivory skin and grey-blue eyes, in similar fashion to their siblings. Their hair is a dark-ish auburn and messily cut to the top of their ears (fem A. has it similarly messy, however it falls to their chin in choppy waves)

[neutral to friends (to lovers) ; neutral to disliked ; neutral to respected] ★

K. Valiev ; Kostya - Katja / the head guard / m/f

An odd figure, unassuming, almost strangely approachable. They are quiet, and kind, and always smiling...so why do the older guards seem terrified of them?

K. is an olive skinned individual with a small scar running up over the right side of the jaw, and their eyes are dark brown. Their hair is a chestnut brown and is kept in tight curls, though they occasionally braid them (when they have time).

[friends to lovers ; neutral to friends (to lovers) ; friends/neutral to disliked] ★

A. Caras ; Altair - Arali / the royal physician / m/f

Their bedside manner leaves much to be desired, they are no nonsense to the point of being borderline rude, yet the whole palace sings their praise as though they are an angel (you don't see it, personally, but maybe you will eventually).

A. is an individual with vitiligo, leaving patches of their naturally sienna skin instead a pale ivory, as well as whitening some strands of their fringe. Their eyes are a bright green, and their honey blond curls are kept short (fem A. has longer curls, around chest length, that she keeps up in a ponytail for work).

[neutral to respected ; neutral to disliked ; neutral to friends (to lovers)] ★

T. Bellefleur ; Talbot - Tallis / the middle royal / m/f

The younger, but not youngest, sibling to the crown royal. They don't like you much (then again they don't like many people much), but you're not sure about that knowing glint in their eye when you interact— what do they see in you?

T. has heavily freckled beige skin and almost eerily pale blue eyes. Their hair is a fiery auburn and cut into a messy undercut (fem T. has shoulder length hair, covering an undercut at the back).

[enemies? to friends (to lovers) ; enemies? to respected] ★

M. Serrel ; Marin / your fellow assassin / nb

You had to do a double-take when you saw them, and so did they, it seemed someone wanted you two in the palace at the same time...but why?

Marin is a sienna skinned individual, with hazel eyes (on the greener side) and almost black-brown hair. Their hair just brushes their shoulders in length and falls in soft waves, though they quite often have it pulled into a half up bun/ponytail.

[rivals to friends (to lovers) ; friends (to lovers) ; friends to rivals ; friends to friends with benefits (to lovers)] ★

NOTE; for all romances MC must befriend the RO of their choice first, otherwise they won't consider anything beyond some light flirting. Additionally, in the case of A. Caras and T. Bellefleur, the romances will be slower burn (especially Caras).

I couldn’t stop thinking about shikigami slippers from jujutsu kaisen merch

My Second Interactive Novel

Dragon's Edged is an interactive novel, about a Author of a IF died and reincarnated to their own IF.

There are 4 love interest for you to choose from, 2 males and females each with their own past and secrets for you to learn!

(Note: The RO's are not final. I might add more in the near future and that no romance is not a option. Also, I want this novel open as much as possible not restricting itself to the medieval time era or any kind of era. For example, I might put modern music in the novel.)

(Warning: 18+ The story includes the following: Violence, , self-doubt, cliché's and many more will be added in the future.)

Demo: Prologue To Chapter 5, Discord

Introduction:

"Another one bite the dust" a voice says sorrowful, peering through a mirror and seeing a image of people gathering around a mangled body.

The person waves their hand in the air and the mirror disappeared, leaving them alone to their thoughts.

"Looks likes I need to prepare for the ritual for this one!" they sigh and head aching due to thinking the preparation that must be done.

Still contemplating, they heard their door slammed wide open and a figure barging into their quarters.

"LUCIAN!" they scold the person for being disrespectful and disturbing their peace.

Lucian dismissed the rebuke with a wave of his hand.

"Yes, I know Lucille and I apologize but I want to be sure." he says in a somber tone and a sad look on his eyes.

Lucille looked at his brother with a puzzling look; "Sure of what?" she ask herself in her mind.

She and his brother are Gods and they can sense if a life is snuffed out on Earth.

Due to her being the Goddess Of Life and his brother ,God Of Fertility.

Up to this day she still doesn't know why the roles are swapped, is it the job of the woman to oversee which will be fertile?

But nevertheless the two of them do their job with upmost devotion.

"What do you mean? My Brother?" she looked at him with calculating eyes.

Still waiting for a reply, she was shocked to see that her brother burst to tears.

"MY FAVORITE AUTHOR DIED!!" he screamed at the top of his lungs and eyes flooding with tears.

Lucille mouth gone slack and can't help but face palm.

"Oh brother!" she exclaims in slight annoyance and with a roll with her eyes.

Story:

You're a IF writer, correction was a IF writer!

Romance Options:

"Clara Dacre, The Royal Princess"

"You think being royalty is a boon?

Physical Appearance:

In the kingdom, there is no one quite like the Royal Heir to the throne, Clara. She is the eldest of her brothers and the one who will one day rule the kingdom. At first glance, she appears a little shy, but once you get on her good side, the two of you can talk for hours with tea, of course! However, something is amiss - did you just watch her behead an enemy? It seems the gods have done her dirty by changing her sweet and kind attitude into something feisty and ferocious.

Don't mistake her gentleness for weakness, as Clara is a fearsome warrior on the battlefield. Her parents made sure she can protect herself from any possible threats that may come her way. She is a courageous and fearless fighter who is unafraid of dying on the battlefield. Clara sees her royalty as only a restriction to her passions and hobbies, much preferring to solve problems with her own hands than waste her life sitting on the throne all day. She makes sure the safety of her future kingdom is protected, and she will dispose of anyone who dares harm it.

However, as a princess, Clara doesn't act like one. She is the epitome of scandalous and flirtatious behavior, with no regard for royal ethics. She is the renowned prankster of the kingdom, always looking for ways to stir up trouble. But beneath that mischievous exterior lies a woman who is passionate and full of life. She is not shy or demure, but bold and outspoken. She does not care about etiquette or manners, but only about having fun and living life to the fullest. She is not afraid to express her desires or pursue her passions, whether it is a hobby or a lover.

Can your love prevail through the complicated politics of royal courtship, or will you drown under the sea of bodies seeking the favor of being the consort of the princess? Clara's personality is complex, yet intriguing. She is not one to be tamed or molded into what society expects of her.

Can you be the one who can keep up with her wild and adventurous spirit? The one who can match her wit and charm? The only one who can make her laugh, blush, and moan? But can you also win her heart and make her yours? Can you handle the challenges and dangers of being with the Royal Heir, who has many enemies and admirers? Can you prove yourself worthy of her love and trust?

"Clara is a character that will surprise you, delight you, and seduce you with her unpredictable personality. She will make you feel alive, excited, and passionate with her fiery attitude and playful nature. She will make you want more of her, more of her kisses, more of her touch, more of her love. Will you be able to tame the warrior princess who defies all conventions? Or will you be just another victim of her mischief?"

"Lucas Pierce, The Royal Bodyguard Of The Princess"

Physical Appearance:

"Everyone and everything is an enemy, until proven not, by me!"

In the world of Rumblr, there is no character quite as angsty and cruel as Lucas, yet he remains the most beloved and sought-after character by followers. Tasked with guaranteeing the safety of the princess, Lucas has a gaze that could pierce through steel, and a deathly aura that surrounds him at all times. He is always on edge, and his aloof nature means he doesn't care about your position or status. To him, if he sees you as a threat, he will not hesitate to take you down, even if you are the most reputable person in the kingdom.

Don't believe me? Even the closest friends of the princess and his own comrades must pass his inspection and interrogation before they can get an audience with her. Lucas is devoted, thorough, and quick to act, precise and deadly in the ways of the sword. But behind that tough exterior, you sense a loneliness that only the princess can assuage.

Can you convince him that there is more to life than his job? That there is love to be found in the world, and that he is worthy of it? Lucas is cold and aloof, not interested in making friends or finding lovers, as he is entirely focused on his role as the Royal Protector. But as you spend more time with him, you notice something different about him - a vulnerability that he keeps hidden from the world.

Will you melt his frozen heart and show him the warmth of life? Will you be the only one who can see past his cold and aloof demeanor and discover his vulnerable side? The only one who can make him smile, laugh, and feel? Can you break through his walls and reach his soul? Can you make him realize that there is more to life than his job, and that he deserves to be loved? Or will he push you away and keep you at a distance?

"Lucas is a character that will captivate you with his intensity and intrigue you with his mystery. He will challenge you, thrill you, and even hurt you. He will make you feel things you never felt before, and he will make you want more. Will you be able to win his heart and make him yours? Or will you be just another obstacle in his path?"

"Lucian, The God Of Fertility"[M]

Physical Appearance:

"I love your story so much and it's one of my dreams to be a part of it!"

In the realm of the gods, there is one who stands out among the rest - the God of Fertility, Lucian. But the question remains, why is a man in charge of such an important department? It's not often you see men in this role, but Lucian doesn't seem to mind. In fact, he loves his job and performs it with enthusiasm.

He is the one who blesses the land with abundance, the animals with offspring, and the people with children. He is the one who makes the world a more beautiful and joyful place. But he is also a man who loves to have fun and enjoy himself. He is a fanboy and a friend.

Lucian is not your typical god. He does not act like a solemn and serious deity, but like a cheerful and playful child. He is always smiling, laughing, and joking around, making everyone around him feel at ease. He does not care about status or rank, but only about happiness and friendship. He is friendly to everyone he meets, and he treats them with kindness and respect.

But Lucian’s favorite person in the world is you - the MC, his beloved author. He is your biggest fan, your most loyal supporter, and your most devoted admirer. He reads every word you write, he leaves likes and comments on every post, he sends you gifts and messages of encouragement. He loves your stories, your characters, your imagination.

When you die, Lucian is heartbroken. He mourns your loss, he misses your presence, he longs for your return. But when you are reincarnated and come back to life, Lucian is overjoyed. He rejoices in your resurrection, he celebrates your comeback, he welcomes you with open arms.

Lucian’s love for you is pure, sincere, and unconditional. He will always be there for you, to support you, to protect you, to cheer you up. He will always be faithful to you, to respect you, to admire you, to cherish you.

Lucian's goodwill, childish antics, and friendly nature make it easy to trust him. But could there be something more to his affable demeanor? Is there a hidden agenda behind his loyalty to the MC? Only time will tell.

Can you reciprocate his feelings? Can you see him as more than a fanboy or a friend? Can you accept him as a lover or a partner? Lucian’s story is one that will make you laugh, cry, and swoon. He will charm you with his humor and personality, he will impress you with his skills and abilities(Don't depend on his God-Powers).

"As you read through Lucian's story, you'll find yourself falling in love with his character. His loyalty and protectiveness of his favorite author will make your heart swell with emotion. You'll be drawn to his carefree nature, and his playful banter will leave you laughing out loud. But beneath that bubbly exterior lies a god who is powerful, competent, and fiercely protective of those he loves."

"Songixoninne(Variel), The Raging Inferno"[F]

Physical Appearance:

Left: This is her human looks without the draconic traits.

Right: Just a interpretation on how she will look like if I managed to add her dragon traits.

The tattoos, scales and sharp fingers, the red slits for eyes, etc.

"Humans are so small and fragile beings, how quaint!"

You have faced many dangers in your life, but none compare to Variel. She is the dragon who has brought ruin and misery to countless worlds, earning the ire of gods and men alike. Her soul has been chained to yours as a curse, forcing you to share a destiny with the most wicked being in existence.

But when you finally confront her, you realize she is more than just a monster. She is a dragoness with a name that sounds like a hex, and her savage and rude attitude makes her a pain to deal with. She is a sadist and dominatrix who delights in tormenting you, a tyrant who dominates you with her power, and a mocker who ridicules you at every opportunity.

Yet, despite her evil, you find yourself drawn to Variel. She is clever and witty, making you chuckle or cry with her sarcasm and dark humor. She is fierce and proud, showing off her skills in magnificent and flashy feats of magic. She is blunt and honest, telling you what she thinks without holding back or lying.

And as you journey with her, you begin to see hints of something else. A softness hidden under her hard shell, a warmth buried under her cold words, a yearning concealed under her fierce gaze. Could it be that she is falling for you? Or is it just another scheme to satisfy her twisted urges?

You can’t help but feel attracted to this dragoness, even with all her faults. She is like a magnet, pulling you closer to her with her charisma and intensity. But can you handle the taunts and insults that come with being near her? Will you challenge her, sparking her fury further? Or will you embrace her, falling for the dragoness who was once your foe but is now your companion?

"Variel’s story is one of a world of pain and adventure, and you won’t be able to resist discovering it. Her complex personality, combined with her sadistic and domineering nature, will thrill you or break you. You’ll find yourself captivated by her, despite her alluring personality, and you’ll want to know more about this dragoness who has gone from being an antagonist to being an ally. Can you survive or will you go down in flames screaming and Variel laughing and relishing in your suffering?"

If you see this on your dashboard, reblog this, NO MATTER WHAT and all your dreams and wishes will come true.

An in-depth description of the ROs

Chrissy Warner (she/her) • INTRO

your fifteen-year-old sister. Ever since your parents died, she’s become irate, a shut-in who refuses to talk to you—but insists on shutting you out. You don’t know her anymore.

Dante (he/him): THE FIEND • WRATH • INTRO

when you summoned a demon you never expected someone like Dante to appear before you. He’s… strange to say the least. Hot-headed and childish, Dante follows his every whim, living like he’s going to die tomorrow.

Tropes: idiots in love • muses • partners in crime

Lilith (she/they): THE SUCCUBUS • LUST • INTRO

a Succubus, Dante’s friend, and very relevant in the ranks of Inferno. Despite their monstrous nature, they have always been very kind to you. Lilith is nurturing and caring, and they have often said to find the concept of innocence fascinating.

Tropes: slow burn • pushing loved one away • mutual pining

Josh (he/him): THE BEST FRIEND • ENVY • INTRO

you met when you were children, and you’ve been best friends ever since. A very intelligent and perfectionist man, you have always known Josh to be immensely good-natured. That makes it all the more surprising when you discover the gigantic secret he’s always kept from you.

Tropes: childhood best friends to lovers • love triangle • opposites attract

Villanelle (she/her): THE WITCH • GLUTTONY • INTRO

the owner of the DuPont herbal shop and, apparently, a witch. You’ve known her for a couple years now. Villanelle has a bubbly and happy-go-lucky personality, always up to help around despite people usually finding her extremely strange.

Tropes: friends to lovers • girl next door • everyone knows but them

Victor (he/him): THE DEMON HUNTER • GREED • INTRO

the stoic demon Hunter, Nemesis—whom you know as Victor—joined your group reluctantly and is determined to fulfill his goal: finding his missing sister. Victor is dependable, strong, and calculating. His strong hatred towards anything non-human might be problematic, though.

Tropes: [censored] • love triangle • unrequited love (assumed)

Aliyah (she/her): THE GENIE • SLOTH • INTRO

the very bossy Genie who seems to know your sister, Aliyah has never been shy to hide her obvious hatred towards you and your species. She’s confident, ambitious, brutally honest, and incredibly powerful. You’re sure you can’t trust her.

Tropes: immortal • enemies to lovers • forced proximity

Nathan (he/him): THE ANGEL • PRIDE • INTRO

the Angel, Nathan takes nothing serious and seems to love to test everyone’s limits. Despite his divinity, you know Nathan is struggling to keep himself from becoming a Fallen Angel. This corruption has created a second personality in him, who goes by the name of Azriel.

Tropes: friends with benefits • double personality • forbidden love

Eden (she/he): THE DESCENDANT • DECEIT • INTRO

she is the descendant of the most powerful man who has ever lived: King Solomon. Eden’s closed-off, aloof, demeanor seems to be a result of nearly an entire life living in solitude. Given the power she holds, such a choice is more than understandable.

Tropes: (possible) soulmates • [censored] • living weapon

INTO THE SHADOWS WIP DEMO 3.0 (UPDATE 18/06) -  [redacted title]

Current wordcount: 73k

Average wordcount per playthrough: ??

(I couldn’t get an average wordcount per playthrough because randomtest kept crashing on me. Anyway.)

Play it here: https://dashingdon.com/play/wynnak/into-the-shadows-/mygame/

New to this update:

Chapter Three is partially complete. The title is redacted because of what happens in the second half of the chapter, and it’s ~spoilery~

Depending on your choices, you’ll get to (officially) meet at least two new characters. Fun!

Additionally, people with a very poor relationship with K Delacroix no longer get the option to ride with them to the funeral at the end of Chapter 2. Sorry, I mulled it over and just couldn’t see them willing to do it. 

The option to simp for K Delacroix in early part of Chapter 2 has also, ahem, been dialled down. A new conversation with them was also introduced.

Additional notes:

I’m really sorry for the delay in the update! Motivation was a fickle thing, and time was also limited. I’d already started writing the second half of Chapter 3, but as I’m not a linear writer, they’re still in disconnected bits and pieces so I decided to put out the first half for now.
