The last day of this decent spin-off is about to being. Anyone who joins me today, this is for you:   The Story Sub-par: http://pastebin.com/u/Kiyo3   >Urgh... >What time is it? >The bed is so comfortable, you almost don't want to get up. >But you have too. >What else did you pay $50000 for? >You think back to yesterday. >You remember Tim's advice. >You also seem to remember Golden Harvest try to rape you. >Maybe you should've let it happen. >Maybe it was for the best it didn't. >You can't be sure. >But now, all you have to do is get up and see what the world has in store for you. >You check your phone as you get up. Golden Harvest: Thanks for everything sugar. Come over today. My door is open ^_-* >yfw sex metaphors >Who else texted... Luna: We should hang out today. I want to see you before I go. >She's leaving already? >There's at least two more days left in the semester. >You should probably go later... Sea Swirl: Classes finally finished for me. We should party! Minuette: Bonjour again. Lunch, oui? >Well...   A. Lunch with Minuette B. Luna early C. Visit Golden Harvest. D. Find Sea Swirl   >Well, you made your decision. >You get out of the dorm and start walking to the science building. >It's gonna be a long walk. >But that's good. It gives you time to think. >Why did you choose Luna over the other 3? >Was it because it was the right thing to do? >Was it because you [spoiler]only got three votes on the thread?[/spoiler] >Was it because... she's the one? >Hell, it might not even work out between you two. >She might not even want you. >You saw her face the last time you two hung out. >She wasn't happy. >Almost.. bothered even. >She's always been the weird one out of the four. >But that's what attracted you to her in the first place, right? >You always had sort of a crush on her... >And you've had chances in the past to win her over... >But you squandered it to be with others. >But can you say it was worth it? >Being with Swirl, Minuette... >Hell, being with Golden Harvest for 15 secs was pretty sweet too. >But today you have to make a decision. >Tim convinced you of that. blessthatguyssoul.jpg >And you'll pick- "Hey you" >You look up to see Luna waiting expectantly in front of the science building. >That was fast... >You didn't even text her to come out. "So, what do you want to do today?" >Hm...   A. go out to eat. (Dining hall or outside) B. Find something in the area C. Turn back   >You want to eat out. >Can you take her car. "Sure." >You climb in the drivers seat. >Get that seatbelt on. >Women love safe men. "So, where are we headed?" >Hmm. What time is it? >11:30... >To Olive Garden. >Bitches love Olive Garden. >Luckily, it isn't that packed. >Getting in before the lunch rush is always good >And the waitress brings you immediately to a table. >This might be a good day after all. >You and Luna take your seats and pick out a few appetizers. "Breadsticks, please." >Guess you'll split the order. >You ask her about her FTL project. "It kinda came to a standstill. My project manager, Helios, never really showed up or anything." >Helios?! >That's her Proj Manager? "Yeah. He's an okay guy though. A little weird sometimes..." >True... >You try to continue the conversation, but she doesn't seem that interested. >In you? >Or in the conversation? "Sorry Kiyo... I'm just..." >Yeah? "No... It's nothing. I'm fine." >Yeah, sure she is. >It's not like she usually avoids your glance or constantly looks at her phone when the two of you hang out. >Something is bothering her... >But what is it-   (1/X)   Crescent... >Well, if it isn’t Kiki! “What-- oh, uh, hey Crescent. And…? >Oh, this is Chad. He’s a chill bro. >Was going to go to lunch with a couple other brahs, but SOMEONE was playing on the their laptop. >Like, excessively. [spoiler]mfw the fgt just got a shit ton of games. Notjealousofcomputerofcoursenot[/spoiler] >So this is the new kid. Thought you’d take him for a spin! >Not like that. >Nevermind. >So…. uh… you’re not intruding, are you? >Kiyo glances at Luna, then back at you. “Nah, of course not. Wanna join us?” >You smile and nod, and take a seat across from Luna, Chad across from Kiyo. >With a glance at Luna, you notice she seems to be a bit… irritated. >Whoops. You really hope you’re not ruining this for Kiyo. >If you are, you’re gonna feel really bad. “You’ve met Crescent, Luna?” “Club. About a week ago.” >Something about that tone is kind of off-putting >Errr… so you and Kiyo know each other, Luna? “Yes.” >Cue awkward silence.   (2/X)   >So they aren’t on a date? “Uh… no. Why would we be on a date?” >You don’t know. >They just looked cute together. >Those german guys… “Ugh. No. I like someone else.” >Sure she does. >But you don’t have time for other peoples feels. >You have your own. >And one of them is sitting across from you. >And she’s glaring at you. >What did you do this time? “Is… this a bad time to join you two?” >n- “Sort of… we’re going through some stuff.” >You are? “I’m sorry to hear that…” >Wait, you have problems? “Yes Kiyo, we do. And maybe if you cared enough to realize that, maybe I wouldn’t be so upset right now!” >She’s practically screaming now. >She looks like a completely different person now. >Her hair seems a darker shade of blue than before. >And it’s not a turn on at all. >The lunch rush has started, and the now packed restaurant is looking right at your table. >You can feel the crowd’s eyes boring into you and Luna. >She realizes what she’s done, and she bolts out of the restaurant. >What have you done? “Kiyo! What happened?!”   A. Follow her B. Advice C. Go to another girl (request)   >Luna… >Luna! >You knock over your waiter as you race after her. >She’s already out the door by the time you finish helping the waiter out. >You hear your friends calling out for you, but you ignore them >You burst through the doors, only to realize she’s not there. >You check the parking lot behind the restaurant. >The car is still there… >Where could she be? >You run around the building and down the block in hopes of finding her. >As your run past an empty park, you hear crying. >You’ve grown accustomed to that sound these last few days. >But this is a different kind of cry. >It’s one of extreme, authentic anguish. >And you hate it. >Not only do you hate that, but you hate yourself too. >You know who those sobs belong to… >You eventually locate the Luna’s hiding spot. >She’s alone in a childrens castle based playground, sitting inside the top tower. >There’s a small window on the side, allowing you to see her. >She looks a mess. >Her face is wet from her tears, and her now darkened hair is all strewn about. [spoiler]inb4 she looks like a nightmare[/spoiler] >And you’ve never felt more lost.   A. Go to her B. Leave. C. Find someone else   >Luna? >What's wrong with that girl? "Go away! You... go!" >You can't do that. >You obviously caused this. >And even though you don't know how... >You sure as hell are gonna fix it. >You cast aside your feelings for those other girls for a moment and begin climbing the tower. >You sort of wish fairytale knights had it this easy. >Or hard, considering how winning the girl was inevitable. >You enter the playset from the top, and climb inside, following the sound of Luna's tears. >Eventually, you find where Luna is. >However, your path is blocked by a door. >And your inventory is empty, save for a pen and a paperclip. >You knock on the door. >Is she okay in there? "What the hell do you think, you piece of trash?! Do I sound all right?!" >No, she doesn't. >And that's the problem. >You want to fix this. Not hurt her further. >But can you do this?   A. Continue 1. Use the pen and paperclip to go in 2. Coax her out   B. Abandon 1. Back to the dorms 2. Back to other girl   >You want to use the pen and paperclip. >But you aren't Macgyver. >Instead, you call out to Luna. >What... What did you do exactly? "You know exactly what you did to me! You played with my emotions like those stupid video games you play all the time!" >yfw you haven't played games in days. "Shut up! That's not the point! All you do is go around and play these games with me! What kind of guy does that to a girl?!" >One that's not tied down. >She opens the door and suddenly you find yourself knocked back on the floor. >That punch to the face didn't help. >So much for coaxing her out peacefully. >She slows her punches down enough to let you grab her arms and hold her enough. >This doesn't stop her from thrashing and crying though. >Her dark blue hair is all over her face, and everything about her seems... darker. >Did she get taller too? >That's not important. >Right now, there is a screaming, crying girl trying to punch you again.   A. hold her down B. Ask what's wrong C. Abandon   >You remember all of the gains you've worked hard on. >Calling upon your strength, you turn her around onto the ground as gently as you can. >She's not thrashing around as much, but there's nothing you can do about those tears. >Now, can she talk to you? >Because you want to know why she freaked out like that. "You're really a piece, you know that Kiyo?" >She's speaking through sniffles and tears. >It makes you sad to see her like this... "You just don't get it, do you? Men! Why can't they ever just-" >Will she just tell you what's wrong?! >She looks at you, shocked that you yelled. >You're a little shocked too. >But you only did it because... well... you care... "Oh, right. Now you care about me. After you slept with Sea Swirl-" >It was at a club. Stuff like that was bound to happen... "Whatever, dick." >You've never heard her talk like this to you, or anyone before. >It's like she's a totally different person now... "I have all the reason to be mad, Kiyo! I can understand Sea Swirl. She's liked you since Day 1! But... Thursday..." >She calms down a bit, but more tears come down her face... >What happened on Thursday? >You took her out to the show and you- >Wait. >no. >No! >Did she see...? >She nods, as if she understands your thoughts. "I saw you with Minuette, you bastard."   A. Deny B. Admit and attempt forgiveness C. leave   >You weren't- >Okay, you were with Minuette. >She was really in a bad place and she needed a friend. "So you were being a friend by having sex with her?" >No. >It... it just happened. "Did she... kiss you?" >No. >You kissed her... [spoiler]http://pastebin.com/UWmrer6a[/spoiler] >You fear that Luna will punch you again, but she doesn't. "So now you're using girls who're sad for sex? You really are shit." >Her words sting. >But not as much as seeing her cry. >She pushes you off her and starts heading back into the room. >Before she can make it all the way in, you grab her ankle. >She tries to kick you off, but you tell her to wait. >She needs to know... that you've made your decision. >She at least deserves that much.   A. Sea Swirl B. Minuette C. Luna D. Golden Harvest E. ???   >You need to tell her that... >That you like- "Kiyo, how can you not understand this?" >Wait, you were just about to- "I... I liked you, okay? You were fun to hang out with, and my sister liked you, and... I thought maybe we could be together." >She's not as angry, but she starts crying again. "But you went along and screwed around with other girls. How do you think I felt about it?! The one guy I thought I could be with in a long time, going for so many others! Do you know how much that hurt? Do you kno-" >She stops speaking as you grab her and hug her close to your body. >She struggles against you for a bit, but eventually she stops, the only sound being her last few tears. >You pull back and look her in the eyes. >Those beautiful, blue eyes. >And you realize that, this whole time, you should have been with her. >That Luna has been the one you've been thinking of for the last few months. >But what matters is that you found someone who you could say that... that you loved. >And even though you hurt her, maybe she'll forgive you for what you've done to her. >And then you can be her knight, rescuing her from the tower.   End Day 7   Epilogue   >You and Luna drive through the nearly empty streets near CU. >She's saying a word to you, and every time you meet each others gaze she turns around. >Maybe she's blushing. Maybe she's still angry at you. >At least it wasn't a hassle getting her into the car. >You pull up to her apartment. >As you open the door for her, she finally looks you in the eye. >And, finally at her front door, she hugs you. >And that hug eventually becomes a kiss. >It's not a long kiss, or a passionate one. >But it means everything. >Because now you now. >And now she knows. >That you have each other. >And that's all that matters.   End of the Final Day
