:what: When you stare deep into the Warp Shojo, the Warp Shojo stares you back. I worry more and more about RK's sanity, he still has to lp Saya, ME3 and DA3 as soon as these are available.

Read on Wikipedia what a shojo is please, unless you mean bishojo.
This game actually is your usual dating sim, hours wasted in trying to date a girl with the final goal of few awkward sex scenes, not all that pornographic too.
Visual novel is too much of a generic term, doesn't help that for the majority of Kodexers that means Bible Black.

Later, at the park...

Throwing a glance up and down the street, I cross the road and step into the park.

I've learned to pace myself on such walks, mostly because Lilly's slower speed during our forays into town means I have to consciously slow myself down. That aside, I hope Akira didn't expect me to be immediately prompt.

02.jpg


The looks she gives me as I walk up lacks any hint of acknowledgement or greeting.

me.jpg
What's with that look? I needn't have come, you know.
akira.jpg
I know you would. You're that kind of person, after all.

*Thunk*

I lower my brow at her remark as she disposes of the can, emptied by the time I arrived, and a metallic clatter rings out. Akira takes a seat on the old wooden bench and I follow her lead.

*Chock-Fssh*

She takes another can of beer from beside her and opens it before speaking, taking a large gulp. She seems to really like that stuff.

me.jpg
I suppose I don't need to ask what this is about, or rather, who it's about?
akira-sad.jpg
I heard from Lilly that you asked about our family.

They share more than phone numbers, that's for sure. I'd probably be very worried right now if it weren't for the total lack of malice in her voice. Rather, her tone sounds almost wistful.

me.jpg
Idle curiosity, mostly.
me.jpg
...I have to admit, I'd never have guessed you two were half Scottish.

She gives a wry chuckle of amusement.

akira.jpg
I've heard that before, trust me.

The small smile falls from her face, her eyes looking ahead distantly. Aside from the occasional elderly couple talking as they slowly walk the meandering paths, and the odd aging car, it's pleasantly quiet.

akira-sad.jpg
She didn't tell you everything though, did she?

ED: Uh oh...

me.jpg
It was pretty brief. You parents live in Scotland, she hasn't met them since she was twelve, and she wants to meet them again.
akira-frown.jpg
It's always surprised me how devoted she is to our parents, for all the good they did us.

The ways she says it sounds almost derisive. She gives a small sigh, as if to quickly brush the feelings away.

akira-sad.jpg
Why do you think they left, Hisao?
me.jpg
Why do I think they left?
me.jpg
From what Lilly told me, it was because of work. I guess a pretty decently-paying job was involved as well, given the way your parents seem to live.
me.jpg
So Lilly went to a private school, and that's why she carries herself with the airs and graces of the upper class.
akira-sad.jpg
Yeah. Since the business in Inverness boomed, our father decided to move directly to the same city as its headquarters.
akira.jpg
That's just the conclusion I'd thought you'd come to, though. You're too good-natured.
me.jpg
You don't think they left for their career?
akira-sad.jpg
I'm sitting here bitching to you about it. What do you think?

ED: :(

akira-sad.jpg
Yamaku Academy. I've always felt that place was kinda creepy; like it was an isolated hideaway for those 'proper society' doesn't waant to se nor hear.

ED: That's kinda harsh, man.

akira-frown.jpg
They probably just rue the fact that Lilly wasn't old enough to be shoved there by the time they left.

ED: What the hell?

A long silence follows her abrupt and very harsh criticism of her own parents, and Yamaku. Lilly's blindness is hardly something that could be simply ignored for a high-class family attempting to keep up appearances, much less so when a lucrative offer is on the table.

ED: But that's far-fetched. I mean...she might be blind, but she's still rich as hell!

Eventually Akira gives a derisive snort, her feelings coming to a head.

akira-frown.jpg
Moving to secure our financial future with his new job posting. Even at the time I hardly believed it.

Not wanting to simply be an avenue for her venting, I gently try to steer the discussion.

ED: Might be a good idea, I'm still in the dark why she's calling you over just to whine about her parents. She's not forced to go, is she?

me.jpg
So you stayed in Japan with Lilly, then?
akira-sad.jpg
Either I stayed with her, or she went to live with an ailing grandmother and grandfather.
me.jpg
What about Shizune's family? If you're cousins, then...
akira-frown.jpg
Our fathers hate each other. I'd have been more than happy to tell them to go screw themselves and live with the anyway, but Lilly wouldn't have wanted that.

ED: I'm still in the dark why Lilly and Shizune are hostile to each other...can't be their fathers' influences.

akira-sad.jpg
I'd also had an offer for a job by then, so we did our best to keep our parents' house in proper shape, and tried to continue our lives as if they'd never left.
me.jpg
So you just lived by yourselves?
akira-sad.jpg
Basically. Lilly had school and I had my job, so we weren't exactly languishing.
akira-sad.jpg
With her schooling, her study, and having to do chores while I worked, though, I can't help feeling like I failed her. In the end, I tried to be there for her, and screwed it up.

ED: Gotta be tough two girls taking care of one house, with one blind...

akira-frown.jpg
...Expecting a nineteen-year-old to be a mother for a blind child. It's ridiculous.

ED: ... *shakes head in disbelief*

So... Lilly and Akira lived alone after their parents moved, with Lilly largely taking care of herself. I guess that explains her apparent independence, compared to many in Yamaku. I may have lived alone much of the time since my parents both worked, but that's... just something else entirely.

akira-sad.jpg
Sorry for making you listen to my moaning, Hisao.
me.jpg
I don't mind at all, but... do you mind if I ask why you're telling me all this?
akira.jpg
Hmph. You always were curious.
akira-sad.jpg
Context, I suppose.
akira-sad.jpg
Life isn't a fairytale, Hisao. Some people have to learn that the hard way.

ED: ...True that. Still, ah well. Thanks for telling us all this before you leave.

She takes a long drink from the can in her hand, her face becoming more depressed than distant.

akira-sad.jpg
I broke up with my boyfriend a few days ago. After I leave, we're not going to be able to see each other again.
akira-sad.jpg
But that's how life is. You can't just set your lief up and expect it to stay that way forever; sometimes stuff happens that you have to roll with, even if it means hurting yourself or others.

ED: Harsh, but true.

She takes a long breath before looking up at the bright orange sky.

akira-frown.jpg
Damn... if I smoked, I could take a nice, long drag right about now and look kinda cool.

I want to respond, to help her in whatever way I can, but I feel utterly useless. This kind of situation is one I've never been in, and I simply don't have the experience to say anything meaningful to comfort her. Akira looks over and picks up on this, much to my embarrassment.

akira-sad.jpg
I must look pretty pathetic right now, whining about this to someone I barely know.
me.jpg
Hardly, and I'm pretty much an expert on looking pathetic.

She gives a chuckle, the act feeling like a personal victory for me.

akira-smile.jpg
You're a good kid, Hisao. When I said that I approved of you being with my sister, I wasn't joking or just being nice.

*Clang*

She picks herself up off the seat with a grunt, one that seems ill-fitting given her age, and throws the now empty can into the bin after one last swig.

akira-question.jpg
It's just unfortunate that doesn't really count for much in this world.

ED: Yeah, nice guys finish last.

akira-sad.jpg
When I said that I was leaving for Scotland, I was doing it because a good position opened up in our company's headquarters.
akira-sad.jpg
When our folks told me that when we were at their place, though, they also gave Lilly a summons to rejoin them in Inverness.

ED: Oh, I se- wait, what?

Music: Boneyard

No way...

ED: But she never- the date- and all that!

Her evasiveness when asked about the future... that awkwardness that had steadily grown between us... that uncharacteristic outburst of anger...the cake I bought for her and never finished...

All of them suddenly fit into place. The same family that she reminisced about after Hanako's birthday party, the same family that left her and Akira to themselves after taking flight to greener pastures...

ED: Why didn't she tell us when she got back from Scotland? :(

Now I feel stupid for never cornering Lilly on what was bugging her. I'd never even considered if something had happened during her trip to her family's home at Inverness. And now, a sense of unease grows in my chest. If her family has summoned her to join them in Scotland, all the way on the other side of the Earth...

me.jpg
Has she... accepted?

ED: No. She will refuse! Come on! We've done so much things together, right?!

03.jpg

akira-sad.jpg
That's why I called you down here to talk, Hisao.
me.jpg
Context, huh...

ED: Now we know. We can still talk to her about this. Don't worry...I'm sure she'll stay.

I sit back, my feelings of worry and frustration no doubt written all over my face.

akira-sad.jpg
Lilly's strong, Hisao, but she's not infallible.
akira-sad.jpg
I guess it's my job to worry about her, being her older sister, but I think that you deserve to know.

ED: Thanks a lot, Akira. I really mean it.

me.jpg
I understand.
akira-sad.jpg
You okay? You sound depressed.

ED: He's good at it, don't worry.

me.jpg
No, I'm just... thinking.

ED: Talk to her.

akira-smile.jpg
That's good. Thinking is good. Being rash won't get you anywhere.

She looks at her watch, barely moving her wrist.

akira-sad.jpg
I've got to go. Will you be okay?
me.jpg
I'll be fine, don't worry. I'll have to talk to Lilly about it and get everything sorted out.

ED: Yeah. You have to. Still, why is she hiding it? Was she even planning to tell us about it? Or did she made up her mind on not going at all?

She gives a smile, but it doesn't feel all that genuine or sincere.

ED: Oh fuck you, she's a big help.

Really, both of us are dancing around the fact that Lilly's on the precipice of the biggest decision of her life and is trying to take the entire burden on herself. And part of that burden is the matter of our relationship. By the time I look up, Akira's already walking off with her hand held up. For the first time in a long while, I finally have an answer to something. Perhaps not even that. But at least I now have the right question to ask.

me.jpg
Will you leave, or stay?

Sunday...

04.jpg

me.jpg
Hurry, Lilly!
lilly-sad.jpg
I'm moving as fast as I can!

I can barely make out Lilly's voice over the deafening pounding of the rain. Even though I dislike pulling her around, the situation calls for it. I turn forward, my free hand over my head in a futile attempt to keep at least my hair dry. My vision seems to be in grayscale. This really is rotten weather for summer, and the last kind of climate I'd want for a date. A pity. I'd even checked the weather forecast beforehand, one of the very few times I've ever done so, only for it to say that Sunday afternoon would be fine.

Looking to Lilly, her shoulders are not completely drenched, with her right hand holding tightly to mine and her left gripping her retracted cane. This horrid downpour came on just as we were between our destination and Yamaku, so we decided to try rushing the rest of the distance rather than doubling back. Entirely unused to running this fast, Lilly's using all her concentration just to avoid tripping over.

lilly.jpg
Hisao, do you know where we're going!?

ED: Coming from you...uh....

Even she's reduced to shouting to try and be heard over the combined noise of the wind and rain.

me.jpg
The Sha-

The rest of my voice is completely drowned out by an even heavier burst of rain.

lilly.jpg
The what!?
me.jpg
The Shanghai!
lilly-sad.jpg
How far is it!?
me.jpg
It shouldn't be far now!

It doesn't take long before I call out to her once again.

05.jpg


I quickly pull to a stop just in front of the familiar exterior, the lantern outside still giving off its reliable glow, and wait for Lilly to catch her breath before going in.

me.jpg
Ladies first.

*Ping!*

The tiny bell inside rings out when I hold the door open for her, a smile and a polite nod being my reward before entering myself. As I step in behind her and wipe my feet, only a quick glance is necessary to notice the distinct lack of activity. The Shanghai doesn't seem to get much in the way of patronage, and today is no different. Only a couple of tables are occupied. Summoned by the bell's ringing, a most expected person comes to greet us.

06.jpg


Yuuko looks chipper today. Trying to predict her moods is pretty hard, but it's a nice change from the norm.

lilly.jpg
Hello, Yuuko.
me.jpg
Hey.
yuu.jpg
Good afternoon, you two.

She takes a deep bow, somewhat taken aback as she rights herself again and gets a better look at us.

yuu.jpg
What happened to you? You both look...

ED: Oblivious about the weather? Holy shit.

Her eyes drift towards the glass of the door behind us.

yuu.jpg
Oh. Oh dear.
me.jpg
We're inside now, at least. I think that's the most important thing.
lilly.jpg
It's nice and cozy. You're lucky to be working inside today.
yuu.jpg
It's been nice and quiet. I like days like this. Oh wait, um, sorry... is there anything you'd like?

ED: A table and chairs to sit on would be nice.

lilly.jpg
French vanilla tea, please.
me.jpg
I'll have the same.
yuu.jpg
Right. Coming right up.

She quickly skitters off with a determined look on her face, trying very hard not to forget our orders. If nothing else, she is at least dedicated to her jobs. I lead Lilly to an empty seat before the two of us settle down. As usual, there's a large difference between my exhausted flopping down into my seat and Lilly's delicate sliding into hers, her can set beside her. For a while I just idly watch the rain falling outside. The occasional person runs down the street trying to stay as dry as possible, hands often tightly gripping a rain-soaked umbrella.

ED: Hey, don't forget to talk about THAT.

Lilly sits just as quietly as I, her eyes closed as she intently listens to all that's happening.

ED: And you call this a date?

It's a comfortable, relaxing silence that exists between us; just the type that we'd so often shared together in the past months. For Lilly, at least. I can't help replaying the words of her sister in my mind, at times contrasting them to both our time spent together since I entered Yamaku, and to the way we've been since we started dating. No matter how much I try, I can't work Lilly out. It's as if the harder I try to second-guess her emotions and her potential decision, the more difficult it becomes to reach a clear conclusion.

ED: Just...ask her. Goddamit.

It makes me doubt whether I'd ever really understood her. In the end, I'm going to have to ask, even though I very much want to avoid doing so.

lilly.jpg
You seem quiet today, Hisao.

ED: Take the initiative. Please. Just for today.

me.jpg
Really?
lilly-laugh.jpg
You seemed so enthusiastic about taking me out on a date, I'd assume you had something specific you wanted to do.
me.jpg
No, not really. Just wanted to spend some time with you.
lilly.jpg
Is that so...

ED: You cannot lie like this. You know she'll know.

me.jpg
Fine. There was one thing.

A little grin finds its way onto Lilly's face, her knowing full well that she's bested me. It makes what I want to say all the more awkward.

ED: I have faith.

07.jpg

lilly.jpg
Oh?
me.jpg
What's with that tone?
lilly.jpg
You two do seem to get on well, don't you?
me.jpg
Well, I do think she's a pretty cool person to talk with. It'd be nice if any of the teachers were anything like her.
lilly-sad.jpg
Cool...

For a moment I try to place her tone of voice, my mouth curling into a smirk as I realize it.

me.jpg
You're not jealous, are you?

ED: STAY FOCUSED GODDAMIT.

lilly-pout.jpg
I'm not jealous!

After her teasing me over such a thing on our first date, I don't feel too bad having a little laugh at her expense this time around. As we settle down though, it's only a minor distraction from the real point of why I brought Lilly here.

me.jpg
Don't worry, it was mostly just everyday stuff. That said, there was something Akira mentioned that I wanted to talk to you about.
me.jpg
When you went to see your family in Inverness a while back, she said...

Music: Field of Poppies

lilly-sad.jpg
Akira told you about my family's summons, hasn't she?

Seconds tick by while I try to read Lilly's face, an odd mixture of feelings written on it. She seems annoyed, but also somewhat confused.

yuu.jpg
Um... here...

Yuuko tentatively slides our drinks onto the table, her presence oddly small. As she walks back to the counter after a quick, polite nod, I realize the air between me and Lilly is thick and our expressions are both somewhat pensive.

ED: ...why did you have to think so hard?

lilly.jpg
Even though she says I should lead my own life, she still interferes at the worst times...

ED: You...selfish...bitch!

me.jpg
I don't think you should blame Akira here. She's just looking out for you, and it's not like I can't understand her concern over this.

Lilly's irritation gives way to an awkward, and largely unsuccessful, attempt to mask her feeling. She really doesn't deal well with being concerned on personal topics.

lilly.jpg
I know, but... I just wanted some more time. I knew you'd have figured it out eventually, but...

ED: If going away is a possibility, then why did you even come back? Why the dates, and the ...everything?!

me.jpg
You were intentionally hiding this from me? For how long were you planning to do so?
lilly.jpg
As I said, I simply wanted more time to think it through. I wanted to be sure of my decision before telling you.

ED: If you're not sure, then why all the dates, goddamit?! WOMAN. WHAT THE HELL?

me.jpg
What did you decide to do, in the end?

I know what I want her to say, but an awful feeling refuses to leave my gut.

11.jpg


ED: 'here or there'? You can't seriously be thinking that.

me.jpg
So... you're going. How long have you known? I already know you were asked when you first went to Scotland, about a month ago.
lilly-sad.jpg
Some...time.

ED: Ahh...I hate cake more than ever now.

My frustration very nearly boils over. The fact that she's done this affects me more than it should.

ED: This is so wrong - why can't she just....break it off the moment she returns? What was all THAT for?

For her to not only be leaving but to have been actively hiding her own plans from me, and after seeming for so long to be the one solid pillar of support and reliability I could depend on... It feels as if the foundation underneath me is suddenly shifting drastically, much faster than I can adapt to. Perhaps this isn't so much frustration as sheer unease.

ED: :Betrayal:

me.jpg
Lilly...

ED: ..I can't believe this...what the fuck?

lilly.jpg
I'm sorry, I just... I wanted to think this through completely. I wasn't trying to take advantage of you, please-

ED: Do I have any reason to believe a word you say now? You've made up your mind.

me.jpg
I know, Lilly. I know. This is just really sudden.

ED: THIS IS BULLSHIT.

me.jpg
I guess this means that once you go, we'll be breaking up?

ED: It'll be Saya no Uta.

For one of the few times I've seen since I met her, she's genuinely lost for words.

ED: I'm coming, Deep One.

She doesn't look surprised, no doubt because the fact had dawned on her once she became sure of her decision, but rather, she appears genuinely unsure of how to deal with the situation now that it's in front of her.

12.jpg


ED: Yeah, that's a great ending for a visual novel. Chatting over phones.....every night. NO. YOU'RE JUST MAKING SHIT UP NOW. WHAT IS THIS? CONSOLATION PRIZE?

Even as she says it, the tone of her voice gives away that she doesn't truly believes what she's saying.

13.jpg


ED: ...there's nothing left to say. Go. You've made your choice.

me.jpg
We're just two children pretending to be adults, aren't we?

A long, long silence hangs in the air between us. The noise of the other patron drinking and talking only makes the situation feel more strange and disconnected. Lilly's face remains low, her dejected expression clouding it.

ED: You knew this would happen. So why plunge the blade so deep? Make a clean cut next time.

lilly-sad.jpg
I'm sorry, Hisao.

A simple apology, and no more. She's left entirely without any further response or comment. With a long sigh, I gather what's left of my thoughts and ask the final question I have for her.

ED: Why?

me.jpg
When will you be going?

ED: Who cares.

lilly.jpg
I'll be leaving with Akira, so it'll be a little less than a week.
me.jpg
The beginning of summer holidays?
lilly-sad.jpg
Just a little afterward, yes.

Her tone is unusually slow and steady, her apologetic and depressed mood all the more written to her face as she tries to hide it in her voice. In the end, I can't even keep my promise of going to the Tanabata with her before she leaves.

I look down, seeing my face reflected in the by now lukewarm cup of neglected tea sitting in front of me.

14.jpg


I really thought I'd left this kind of expression behind. For a while I just stare down at the still surface, trying to sort through my emotions to get at what course of action I should take, whether it be right now or in the future. But, just as before, the effort is wasted. I glance up to see Lilly gently sipping her cooled tea without complaint, her face drawn and shoulders slumped. She looks to be deep in thought too, a strangely cold atmosphere coming between us as we isolate ourselves to mull things over.

Even as Lilly's cup slowly empties, mine remains untouched.

ED: So is mine :rage:

I honestly think it would've been better if he just died of a heart attack while fucking her. At least he wouldn't have ended up totally emasculated.

Bad True End:
Fast forward to a few weeks into the long distance 'relationship': "Hi Hisao, I'm sorry but I've... I've met someone. He is actually taller than me, and his personality is a refreshing change from what I've become used to. He can also satisfy my 'healthy adolescent sex drive'. I hope we can still be friends, and I can introduce him to you and Hanako when I come visit. His name is Rance."

The fact that Hisao didn't get angry, or at least try to convince her to change her mind, shows that she made the right choice, since he's clearly just as uninvested in this as she is.

I can't be the only one who's spent a good portion of this LP thinking about how the game would be different better if Rance were the protagonist, right?

It's a great way of making just about any uninteresting story more entertaining, I highly recommend it.

Alternative storyline:

While raping an enemy commander, Rance passes out after severe pain. He wakes up in a hospital to find that he has a terminal penis condition which means that getting boners will cause severe pain and ejaculating may very well kill him instantly. He is sent to a special academy for the handicapped, where he has to learn to live without raping any hot women he sees and how to not act like a colossal asshole to his classmates.

That sounds like an absolutely miserable way to integrate Rance into a KS scenario. The hyper weapon that pierces the heavens would never develop a terminal condition. That's just unscientific.

Now that I can finally see your photo, I have to say you look like an idiotic manchild, just like I thought."

Rance fucks even in the face of death. Or fucks death. Which he has done already. In the face.

What bothers me (and I hate to complain) is that Hisao can fix this whole situation with one simple sentence:

"Lilly can I go with you to Scotland?"

Good, good. Lilly made the right choice. Hisao is worth dumping regardless of moving abroad. Not sure when exactly she thought he'd figure it out considering she was leaving within a week.

Also, has Hisao ever ordered for himself this entire novel? He just seems to copy whatever the other person takes. Is he supposed to be like a parody of people who never take initiative?

Oh yeah. Moving to a country you don't know where they speak a language you don't know while you're entering university, just to stay with your teenage love. Sensible.

He's just a boyfriend chameleon. They're always entertaining to see fall apart.

That would be pretty derp. He can't speak english worth shit so he'd have no prospects for a job/education. Nevermind the immediate expenses of moving there. Asking her family to pay for all that for a guy she met less than a year ago is a bit much.
