Virus (romance, otome, sci-fi) [NaNoRenO 2012]

#1 Post by Chushiki Maho »

I swore I wouldn't do this... but look at me now, breaking promises. :oops:
WARNING! This game isn't really as child safe and playful as it looks! There are a few words like that here and there, so, I don't recommend little kids playing this....
My game is prone to massive mood swings and will often change from serious to downright silly. You have been warned...
Anyways, this is a short plotbunny that I've had for a while now, I finally wanna get it out.

Anyone want to make a text box and logo? PM me please :3


Summary -(Things are bound to change.)

In this story, we follow Olive, a girl living in a world where viruses can come out of your computer and you can't even tell if your best friend is a robot or not.

To Olive, the only important things in this world are her boyfriend, computers, and math.

Why those three things? Because everything else is useless to her. She really doesn't care.

So when Olive gets a virus on her computer, she freaks out. She recreates that reaction when not one, but two viruses appear from out of her computer, as well.

So when you add a childhood friend confessing, fights between her and her boyfriend, and her computer crashing, Olive really doesn't know what to do. So then the stoy is put in your hands. Will you be able to smooth things out with her boyfriend and childhood friend, and fix her computer?

Charries! :) P.O.V from Olive at the start of the game
Olive A.K.A: Olivia Colliper
Age: 16
"I hate this world. It's full of idiots and greedy bastards."
I dislike this world. Hey, I'm a pessimistic person, deal with it. My boyfriend and I get into a lot of fights. Don't get me wrong, I love him, but we just don't agree most of the time.
Virus 00720 'Della'
Age: ???
"Cecil! Stop ignoring me!!!"
Della is too happy of a person for me. Everything in her eyes are unicorns, butterflies and bunnies. She doesn't see the evil in the world. I guess that can be a good thing sometimes though. She really likes Cecil.
Virus 61311 'Cecil'
Age: ???
"D-Della, get off me!"
Cecil is the more calm and composed one out of the two. He's also a jerk. A sarcastic, mischievous jerk. He's pretty smart and likes to use big words. I like him a little better than Della because his naivety doesn't completely distort his view of reality; he still knows what's going on around him. He is oblivious to the fact that Della likes him a lot, which I find stupid because she proclaims her love to him daily.
Max Fairfield
Age: 16
"It's just hard to express myself... But I can assure you, I care about you a lot."
My boyfriend. He's very artistic and creative. He doesn't talk to me much, so I doubt he has feelings for me a lot. We disagree a lot. He's a very optimistic person.
Jeremy Quinn
Age: 15
"Why do you like him so much? All he is is extremely plain."
My brutally honest childhood friend. He loves to smile. He likes to keep up with fashion, and he's pretty rich. He really dislikes Max.

Many things are bound to change.

Awful lot of sci-fi games flying around this NaNoReNo year. I'm liking it. :D

So, this is a universe where literally anyone could be a virus? It's going to be interesting to see how you'll convey that to your readers. It adds a cool element of suspense to this story, especially if there's some kind of secret "viruses wanting to infiltrate & take over the human race" agenda subplot. I know that's probably not the focus of your story, though. XD

To fix her computer, will she have to "eliminate" Della and Cecil? That might be hard, if they're really likeable.

Yeah, pretty much. If she doesn't get Della and Cecil to leave her computer, then it won't be fixed. But you don't have to get rid of them if you like them. Unless you really like your computer...

A weird thing is that even though altogether, this story sounds generally happy, although it's not possible to get a 100% happy ending. XD

You're story setting sounds like it could be really complex, but that makes it interesting too. I usually have a soft spot for childhood friends, but in this case Max is my favourite.

I'm curious, any estimate on what your wordcount will be?

Hmmm, I don't have an estimate at the moment, but I'm making sure I don't go over 25k. --"

Glad you like Max. :) I've asked a few friends, and Max has been the most popular so far.

When drawing something, anything, USE REFERENCES!! Use your Google-fu!
Don't trust your memory, and don't blindly trust what others teach you either.
Research, observation, analysis, experimentation and practice are the key! (:

I wasn't sure what I was expecting, but what I got in this thread is SO MUCH BETTER. The art looks so unique and cute, and I love the little preview shot we get. The characters sound interesting, and I like the premise.

And hey, otome and sci-fi? Count me stoked for that combo!
