    Summary

    You're not sure you can take another smile from Kanaya, knowing that after you say what you have to say she might decide to make this your last conversation ever. You spend a moment taking her in properly – her soft grey skin, her one hooked horn, her fangs that always seem to find a way to sit on her lower lip – and decide that even if she never talks to you again you'll have been glad to have known such a remarkable person for as long as you have.

    No more messing around. This is it.

    "Kanaya, I'm a girl."

    And she frowns and you want to die.

    I still think about this one.

    Summary

    It didn’t have to mean that she and Yukiko were…like that, what they did. Not necessarily.

    Maybe the fumes in Kanji’s bathhouse had just gotten to them, spending so many hours in there fighting and sweating. They’d been tired, and sore, and Chie had eaten too much at Aiya, and hadn’t wanted to walk home after she dropped Yukiko off at the inn, and when they’d gotten under the covers together, maybe all those factors had just come together and gotten a little messy and –

    Chie stands up and busies herself trying to find her jacket and her socks. Maybe it had been nothing but them both being tired and addled from spending too long in the TV.

    When Yukiko comes out of the shower, Chie thinks, they’ll talk about it.
    --
    After saving Kanji from the TV, Chie and Yukiko’s relationship goes in a significantly different direction than either of them expected. Turns out that just facing your Shadow isn’t enough to resolve all your issues – the rest have to be unpacked, one by one, piece by piece.

    Summary

    After one last battle with Dracula, Alucard awakens to find himself in a world far bleaker than he could ever imagine. On Earth, there is not a single human to be found; the crumbling ruins of civilization are ravaged by hordes of machines built by alien invaders. But machines are the least of his worries—the dark forces he is all too accustomed to are brewing once again, poised to unleash a terror the likes of which the world has never seen before as the sun sets and the long night begins.

    What will Alucard fight for in a world without humans to protect? Who will join him? And who will oppose him?

    Summary

    <Welcome.> Take your seat over there, we’re going to play a game. <No,> you don’t have a say in this.

    The difficulty is astronomical. I’ve run this scenario hundreds of times, and I always win. Your mediocre little grey cells don’t stand a chance!

     

    Erika's story about her bad breakup left me with a totally different impression of what had been happening than the VN presents. I've retold the story here in a more narrative format, but there aren't any details I've deliberately added or left out. Now, I *could* just say what my conclusion was, but this seems much more in theme~ *cackle* *cackle*
