Spend diamonds or perish

Hi sorry for the late answer I didnt see this in my notifications.

When you and your gf are accused of being witches why not embrace it for halloween?

@rc-appreciationweeks

I enjoyed it. Especially her.

Hi I'm not entirely sure how exactly the relationship dynamics will work out in the end especially since the branches are pretty different from each other. Plus RC once had a poly branch just for it to suddenly turn monogamous at the end of an older book. So for your own Sake I would not Set up my hopes too much on getting an actual poly relationship but the story might surprise us.

There are 4 possible end game LIs and I don't think you can romance both at the same time since the romantic relationship in this book is very fast paced. I think Alexander is also a possible LIs who you can romance toward the end of season 1 and might be an endgame. But his romance route seems to be more slow burn. However there are multiple characters you can have flings with throughout the Story.

Towards the end of season 1 your main LI will confess their love to you and you get the option to be in a closed relationship, be in a open relationship or break up with them. So far the open relationship is still a serious relationship however I havent had any options yet to be flirty with the other characters or at least with characters I was interested in. But so far it seems that keeping the relationship open doesn't negatively Affect your relationship with your chosen main LI.

I think if you want a poly relationship in the story your best shot is to romance prince Philippe since he is already in a sort of open relationship at the start of the story. As far as Im aware Philippe's boyfriend is also a fling option for your character so there might be a possibility that these three characters can become comitted to each other. However Im not romancing him and I rarely see these two characters so I really can't confirm anything.

I enjoyed it a lot.

I'm glad I finally got to break up with Bonne. She is beautiful and very sweet but we clearly wanted different things out of the relationship. I think she wanted a Prince(ss) Charming to whisk her away to her happy ending but.. That's just not realistic. My MC's reputation is important to her and making Bonne happy upsets a lot of people and stresses me out. Also, as calculating MC, I felt that MC couldn't really be herself around Bonne like she can with Catherine or Alexandre (and sometimes Anne, who is my best friend according to game stats). Looking forward to finding a new relationship that's less dysfunctional in Season 2. There are 3 ladies on the table for me, one of which is definitely a love interest and two of which may or may not be (my wlw ass is so pleased there are so many great women in this book).

As for friends, I have Queen Anne, who despite being terrible in a lot of ways (cough, homophobia, supporting an abnormally-even-for-the-time misogynistic preacher and being a French royal) is still really impressive and a great ally to have. I'm also taking a liking to Francois and enjoy working with him and Alexandre as a team ^.^

I also like the way the Alexandre situation was handled. There were a lot of options! Alexandre lovers got to have their hot historical power imbalance relationship (/pos, I usually love that kind of thing), while people who didn't want that could have a variety of other options. I'm glad Alexandre and I talked and had a mature and honest conversation, in which we both decided not dating each other was the best choice.

I'm also really thrilled to have succeeded at court lol. I got a good grade in being a courtier, something that is both normal to want and possible to achieve.

How was your route in season 1?

So sorry for the late reply. I received this when I was replaying season 1 to get my stats in order and I just now finished the vfv update.

I also really enjoyed this update and I think vfv might be currently my favourite updating book. Pretty good selection of LIs/flings and just all the possible routes you can take. I also like that you actually have to think your actions through and not just buy every Single diamond Option to unlock the good ending.

As of now I'm staying together with Bonne to see how their relationship develops especially since they both want completely different things (like you said Bonne wants to have a fairytale happy ending and escape her marriage while mc wants to gain Power and influence in the french court). I agree that if their priorities don't change they won't be happy in this relationship long term especially since both our mcs are focused on a good Reputation which can be Ruined if we're too close with Bonne in public. But I'm curious, I want drama in this book and I can't say goodbye to Bonne yet :') (at least the relationship is open and I can still whore around with all the beautiful ladies).

I also have the closest friendship with queen Anne and yes she's obviously not a good person but what can you expect from a girlboss from the 17th century. She also has very strict rules and of course only does things for her own benefit (such as keeping around the misogynistic preacher as long as he also confirms her family's divine right to rule). I don't remember her being Homophobic tho since she sort of gave mc advice on Bonne and mcs relationship (I mean the advice was that Bonne should just marry the guy and secure a safe live by fulfilling her duties and then she can do whatever she wants. She also only has that viewpoint because she was not in a love marriage either and well her husband was gay anyway. At least she told mc to repay Bonne for the good times and care for her brocken heart). Then again it's the 17th century france, the only ppl who are not Homophobic are queer ppl.

Anyway I do like Anne, I find her interesting and she's definitely helping with my Reputation and it's always a flex rmto be friends with a powerful milf.

I also like François, he's like one of the few good men in this place. So I'm surprised he is married to the girlboss and the next mistress of Louis haha.

I maintained a relatively Civil relationship with Alexander and I'm curious to see if Alexander will help or Sabotage mc now that she is free from his grip.
