Miss Chiaki Nanami isn't good at Dating Sims

Summary:

Chiaki is a mostly average student at Hope's Peak High School, one of the top high schools in the entire country. Would that mean she's mostly above average student when compared to the general population? Maybe. But one thing's for sure that she's above, academically speaking, her best friend Hajime Hinata, who does to the nearby but far less renowned Tsurumatsu High School, adjacent to, and literally in the shadow of Hope's Peak. Her mostly mundane school life takes a shoujo-like turn when a student from overseas joins her class at the beginning of her second year, a Miss Sonia Nevermind. But Chiaki's romantic knowledge ends with the same shoujo manga she compares the experience to, so she attempts to not have to take 72 chapters just to hold her hand. Unfortunately, Dating Sims aren't exactly in her field of expertise, so by doing so while simultaneously balancing school work and helping her friends with their own endeavors, Chiaki can only hope for the best.

Chapter 1: Preface

Chapter Text

Hi! Okay, so this is just a little introduction/why I’m starting this… i guess.

I’m really not much of a writer, I write stories, yeah, but they’re usually just a loose collection of ideas that I sometimes draw since art is more my forte.

Anyways, I try reading fics but since I  have very high standards coz im a bitch it’s hard to find fics I can read, and kind of bad anxiety/dissociative issues that cause me to panic or spiral when finally finding a fic that suits my “standards” (I feel so pretentious rip). So I thought I could actually write this story idea so if there’s anyone in my position they could have something to read, maybe...

 

Anyways!! Enough about me, now about the characters. So I adore Soniaki but I feel like there’s not many fics for it, which is a shame, so I was like “Wait, I could make one.” so BAM !! I also feel really bad about how the kids’ (well, in canon I guess they’re not kids anymore huh…) adolescence was essentially stolen from them, so I wanted to have them do really typical teenage stuff, like a slice of life anime, just for comfort I guess hahah. And about comfort! Remember how I said I have way too high standards than I really have the right to hold? So this probably won’t be like 100% fluff and happy and stuff, I am very mentally ill and I will not hesitate to project onto my favorite characters (for the most part they’ll be fine though, more internal struggles than external, just kinda examining their world views n stuff).

All the ships will probably be pretty slow burn, and I mean slow, as in maybe I won’t even make them get together idek. And there will be LOTS of platonic moments too because we need that !!! Very much !! Like romance is sweet and all but its like if the story is a glass of milk and romance is that hershey’s syrup you pour in. As someone who loves milk, I will down a glass of it plain, but adding some syrup can make it sweeter (and pink!!). But if you squeeze too hard and add half the bottle it won’t taste tasty anymore and just make you want to throw up, and you only try to finish it coz you don’t like wasting food but eventually you give mercy to your stomach and pour it down the drain. What was I saying? I forgot. That’ll probably be what happens in the fic a lot. You know that one tumblr post where even the narrator isn’t quite sure what’s happening? That’s my writing style. Plus very short sentences coz I think they’re cute. I forgot what I was talking about again.

 

Anyways-- is there anything in particular you guys would like to see? I already have an outline but there’s tons of space and I don’t have much of a clear ending (imagine just a bunch of kinda one shots that happen in the same universe/plotline). I’ll try my best to make this as good as I can!
