Oops, sorry!

An idea, which I cannot carry out because it's too stupid:
B/G x Elephant

...
Okay, I'm not going to add anything more to that...

Trunks are the new tentacles! YAY!

(I- I seriously think that Hatoful Boyfriend's started a new trend of bestiality in the dating sim world...)

You can't not think of that when you're staring at these stickers.

LOL I can't imagine the screens, though. I don't think it's possible to have two characters in one screen.

Give me time. I'll probably draw them, but only if you intend to actually carry it out. PM?
But good heavens, the example you wrote is just hilariously horrible. I feel like I'm a... lady cultist choosing her sacrifice.

I'd totally do it, if you don't have/want an immediate deadline. I imagine that'd work as a sim (a human sacrifice sim, if you will), so I'd need time to figure out how to program it, and keep my head from exploding. Though it'd probably be fun; I discovered that, for some reason, I like programming.

Also when working with someone, I'm less likely to repeatedly redo stuff, or try to do waaay too much.

A demented artist's dream comes true: the subjects in his painting are now alive.
Every painting he's ever drawn are horror in nature. He thinks they are gorgeous.

The paintings are conspiring to drive the painter more insane by locking him in a room with only them. He dies from dehydration.
Otome.

You were raised as a princess. It turns out that you are a farce. The real princess died when she was only a few weeks old, and a maid's daughter raised in her place. After the truth was revealed, you were thrown out of the castle, with a handful of coins and the clothes on your back.

You don't have to spend your whole life washing clothes and scrubbing floors, though. Since there is no legitimate heir to the crown, the laws of the kingdom dictate that a tourney be held to choose a new ruler. All you have to do is defeat dozens of experts in the arcane mysteries and the art of war, and become the new queen. What could possibly go wrong?

My thoughts when reading your post:

Oh, hey, this sounds like a super fun idea to do.

Well, okay maybe that ending wouldn't be the most fun to write

I laughed so hard reading that.
But the dehydration ending is just something I thought up on the spot. You can make the painter bang on the door for days, getting neighbours' attention?
I think the endings are flipped-- if he was saved, it's bad ending, if he died, it's good. I mean, the guy's demented.
Feel free to play around with it, though, and you CAN disregard the otome XD

If it's otome, then either the horrors need to be male, or the painter needs to be female. Or both. Otherwise, what a smashing idea! Somebody make it, quick!

What if the character dies in different ways based on the painting they choose to 'get with'? That would be pretty interesting :lol: If someone was willing to be the writer I wouldn't mind doing the art for it.

A tournament or a competition can be the basis for a good story. If it's also the story of a woman who works hard in order to learn magic, combat, and more, that's probably a good way to keep the story complex and interesting.

This also sounds like the basis of a simulation game or an RPG. Though the notion of "a princess who fights in a tournament" has been around in video games since at least Dragon Quest 4 (originally created in 1990).

One more thing... the quote "What could possibly go wrong?" is ominous because it was used in a notorious 1993 video game.

That's a good idea. Considering the fact that he paints a lot of horror, I think the different method of death could work.
Still, that is if someone is willing to write it xD;

I'd like to write for it, if you'll have me. :3 This sounds like a really interesting idea. Should we take this to PMs?

This thread seems to be giving birth to amazing things.
