who are you?
you’re 37.
you’re a marriage councillor.
you’re a divorcee.
quite the irony, isn’t it?
moving on…
what were you?
monday to friday, just like in any 9-5, you, my dear, took on the role of the all-knowing marriage councilor.
see, you were quite the talk of town; known for your great insight, marriage-saving advice, and whatever more descriptions people could come up with.
trust me, everything was going perfectly fine: you were on top of the world, and nothing could’ve knocked you down.
skip to: a rainy day, you were sat in your car, and all of a sudden there were blinding beams coming straight at you.
⚡️lights out⚡️
where were you?
you awoke in a bright white room, with the putrid scent of vomit hanging heavy in the air. any guesses yet?
*ding, ding, ding*
if you guessed a hospital, you are correct! if you didn’t – doesn’t matter, we’ll just pretend you did. good job.
long story short, a car rammed straight into yours. needles to say, the driver got away unscathed (as they tend to always do) and you, well you got off pretty well too – except for the concussion part.
where are you now?
right now, you’re stood in your humble bungalow – office set up in one of the few rooms, and well… you’re not exactly sure where to go next.
it seems like you’ve been granted the chance of a fresh start – ‘do-over’, if you will.
⚡️so, are you going to repeat the past or set out on a new path?
customise your mc: gender, name, personality, appearance – you name it.
choose one of three new career paths OR stick to the status quo.
romance one of three love interests.
rewrite your life.
and so much more!
‘the ex-wife/husband’ [f/m]
why did you divorce?
don’t look at me, I don’t know the ins and outs of your relationship and history. don’t worry though, it seems like they’re happy to fill in all the gaps for you – the news of your accident caused them to pack their bags, fly over, and check into a nearby hotel.
pretty clingy for someone you haven’t even exchanged two words with, in the last three years… absence makes the heart grow fonder, was it?
’the patient’ (but not really) [f/m]
and don’t even think about it! patients are off-limits, remember?
…even if the last time you saw them, roughly two years ago, their marriage was fine, and you parted ways amicably…. that would still be wrong, understood?
yadda yadda... they're no longer your patient, but think about the town. folks talk – you should know that better than anyone!
‘the bartender’ [f/m]
cliche, I know.. but even your highly praised self had a habit for the nightlife… mostly the wasting away at the bar, and ordering shot after shot bit. but let’s not get into that right now.
let’s just say: they’ve been a shoulder to lean on, whenever you unleashed the burdens accumulated during your working hours. honestly, marriage can be seriously depressing.
Hey it's alright, no need to apologize we can wait and take time as long as you need👍
hey anon! I just wanted to say a big thank you for your kind words. They truly mean a lot to me and made my day brighter.
your support is greatly appreciated.
Good to hear! I'm also doing great! Got 39 hours in bg3 and we'll on my way to rizzing up Asterion!
that’s awesome! I've actually heard great things about bg3. Hopefully, someday I'll get the chance to try it out! 👀 Also, Astarion <3
Just finished reading the book series villains by v.e. schwab…now what?
Stole this ask from another blog hehe ;"p
if the ROs were given a choice to choose between saving the world or saving MC, what would they choose?
sneaky anon >:)
this is a really good question, but because it will contain spoilers for some parts of the story, I will give simple, brief answers.
Aurelian: save MC without hesitation.
Elara: I don't think she could make such a difficult decision.
Kazuo: save MC. Loyal to the end.
Aiden/Ava: the decision will be difficult for them as well, and it will depend on the situation. They may choose to save MC, or remain with MC and face the same fate.
SC: save MC.
