But what if half your ocs are softys and not made for fighting?

this post changed the game
Hey btw if you don’t know how to program, you should check out [novelty], which is a free Visual Novel creation software. Absolutely no programming required, and it’s super easy to use, I played with it some when I was a teen but the only reason I didn’t do much with it is cuz I made my story complicated and had like 5000 different branching routes that kept spawning new routes and made myself confused LMAO
But yeah, it’s a WYSIWYG with a really straight-forward GUI, if I remember correctly.
It even comes with some free backgrounds and characters and stuff, and this is what it looks like:
Did I mention it’s super duper free? It hasn’t been updated since 2010, but it has basically all you’d need to make a simple visual novel.
Just make sure your DirectX runtime is updated, cuz it can act buggy if it’s outdated, but this program is so old that I doubt it’d even be an issue lol
holy shit
This is so cool? Can you imagine fanfic in this format?
YO
@becausedragonage@ashidoodle can I recommend Choice Script? It’s like a choose your own adventure coding program. The finished product looks like this, where every option sends you down a different path:
They are literally books you can play. You can even insert your own character’s name and pronouns and that would make writing reader inserts so much easier And as a writer who can not art, writing and making dating sims and games is more convenient.
The coding is also super simple and easy to learn and all it requires other than the program files is a text editor. And just like that you can start typing up like you would your own fanfics or stories. Plus it’s very versatile so you can make your game/book as simple or as complicated as you want, and even implement stats and inventory systems.
AND CHOICE SCRIPT IS ALSO SUPER DUPER FREE. THE COMPANY EVEN PUBLISHES YOUR FINISHED GAME FOR YOU AND GIVES YOU ROYALTIES IF YOU CHOOSE TO SELL IT. THE PROGRAM STILL GETS UPDATED AND THE COMPANY PUBLISHES BOOKS EVERY MONTH INCLUDING THE FANMADE ONES. THERE’S ALSO A FORUM FOR PEOPLE TO POST WIPS AND TALK ABOUT CHOICE SCRIPT AND GET HELP.
Don’t ship real people. They’re not characters, they’re not your public property no matter how famous. They are REAL HUMAN BEINGS. Don’t be a creep.
uhh you can still ship real people
Nah.
Creep.
I literally can’t get myself to ship characters from live actions, because even though they’re characters, they’re played by real people and I can’t go there.
y’all need to take it down a notch if a famous person who makes millions of dollars a year is big upset about people drawing them givin their costar road head they can hire a therapist and complain about that to them
wow 8D
Okay fine @emkaniff please imagine someone drawing you giving your coworkers head and posting it all over the Internet then talk to me about whether calling a therapist is your biggest problem with it.
It costs $0 to respect a human being and not treat them like a living cartoon character.
Who were those two young actors that had their friendship ruined by the awkardness after people wouldn’t stop writing straight up porn of them screwing each other?
Two of the kids from Stranger Things, iirc.
Two of the One Direction boys as well.
It apparently happened with two of the kids in IT as well. The worst part about the IT/Stranger Things stuff is that the actors are literal children.
Something similar happened to d&p. Some video leaked on youtube and shippers went crazy about it and the whole thing was so bad their friendship almost broke
Anyone remember when Ian and Anthony from Smosh were shipped together? Remember how VISIBLY uncomfortable they got everytime they came across creepy ship art or fanfictions about them? Remember when Anthony Padilla himself LITERALLY stated: “I hate that Ianthony has become some sick fetish thing,”
If real people wanna be shipped together, go ahead but that doesn’t make it okay for anyone else who’s visibly disturbed by it
Don’t forget that it goes so far to whenever a celebrity or public figure gets into a new relationship, some are fractured or entirely torn because insane shippers that are so out of touch with society start sending hateful messages, death threats and some have gone so far to become so seriously dangerous to the partner’s well being, all because they’re “interfering with their beloved ship”.
There is no “harmless fun” when you ship real people. Idk how much more can we spell it out for you, guys.
