hi there! i’m mari / mira, the head honcho of mirawake studios ☁️ this page is my little corner for sharing updates, art, & behind-the-scenes peeks into my narrative games & projects.

my current projects are watch the road and wan2talk? they’re both slow-burn horror / romance visual novels – the demo(s) are out now!

May we get some Cain Dad Fun Facts 🥹, even if he is a bit more strict LOL

yes ofc!! ill just throw lottie and genesis here too, so everyone gets #included

cain:

he’d definitely enforce a strict curfew on the kids that gets lighter as they grow older, though one minor slip-up would be enough for him to enforce it again

he’d insist on dropping and picking the kids up via car instead of a bus, which would require him to face the personal hurdle of finally getting a driver's license… mc would have to handle all the driving duties until he gets that sorted LOL

cain would declare his and mc's bedroom a strict kid-free zone so he could do some late-night studying in peace (plus, just hanging out with mc normally...) this however would probably not stop any misbehaving child so good luck to him

if one of the kids gets bullied, his initial instinct would be to scrub the bully's digital footprint. mc would have to physically take his laptop away and remind him to handle it through normal school channels

lottie:

again, moreso nephew/niece… but she’d meticulously curate a list of highly rated museums and interactive science exhibits, so all three of them (including mc) could go together

she would never use baby talk! i do think she’d soften her words, but they might come out a bit too blunt sometimes LOL

she would purchase a lot of top-tier starter kits and hobby sets for the kid to encourage them to try out different paths

while the kid is asleep, she’d lean into mc's side and quietly remind them that she's glad they can hand the parenting duties back over at the end of the day. they’d spend the rest of the night relaxing together in a hot tub

genesis:

despite her best efforts, she’d still be the type of parent to accidentally-on-purpose skip parent-teacher meetings

she’d get incredibly invested in the kids' school art projects. she'd sit on the living room floor covered in glitter and paint, accidentally doing more of the work than the kid

genesis would probably panic the first time a kid asks a serious life question. she'd immediately text mc a string of keysmashes and emojis asking what to say

ilya has the potential to be a romcom male lead… now hear me out. watch the road as a hallmark movie. baby it’s cold outside starts playing

hehe…

he’d have a binder filled with his kids' report cards, graded homework, drawings, etc. which wouldn’t be neat at all lol. he’d grumble every time he shoved a macaroni art piece into it, but he wouldn’t throw away a single scrap of paper they worked on since they were toddlers

silas would walk the kids to the bus stop every morning so mc could sleep in

if he had it his way, he’d build a whole extension onto the place by hand just so the kids wouldn't have to share a room as they got older. he’d spend hours at the kitchen table sketching out floor plans while mc drank tea next to him, checking his math when he got too frustrated

i hope you have a great day, thanks! :3

yeahhh!! genesis, silas, and cain all play video games!! not all the time though ofc. umm im not saying who plays the LoL equivalent in the w2t universe, but just know that it will be mentioned…

silas enjoys stuff like tekken, genesis likes legend of zelda, and cain recently played siren blood curse + condemned 2 bloodshot! i think they’d all be up for multiplayer games with mc (yes even cain, but if you’re bad at playing he’d tell you to get off I’m ngl)

NAME TWINSSS w2t will likely take years… gulp. ofc there’s a rough general outline already, and i’ve already basically planned out the main endings, buuuut it’s just a whole lotta work especially with all of the little minigames and fun stuff we’re planning to add! eden and i both have like. huge backlogs of personal projects and stuff to work on as well so LMFAO

nahh lol not even close! ilya's actually pretty open-minded about that kind of thing. he's not waving flags or calling himself an ally but he just… doesn't really care? people are people to him. who someone likes or how they present themselves doesn’t really register as something worth judging or even really thinking twice about. he genuinely doesn’t carry any of those biases

you can kinda see it in the motel route when you're not using she/her pronouns (this part isn’t in the patreon build yet eek BUT i thought it might be fun to add! ofc the interaction is different if you do use she/her):
