Jay's Bonfire POV (15k)

It's finished!!

Jay's bonfire POV came in at just under 16k words. There's a bit of branching to be had at the end, depending on whether or not Josh is around (and whether or not MC tried abandoning him...); but the beginning is fairly linear, covering the earlier events of the bonfire.

I had a ton of fun digging into Jay's brain and writing them interacting with Croft more than they have so far in-canon; so hopefully everyone who reads has a good time with it, too c:

What have you done to me? you ask through a blood-soaked throat.

A rhythmic thumping echoes in your ears. Cold, wet earth wedges between your teeth; your tongue feels fuzzy with dirt. You peel open your eyes.

Your pupils blow out, twinned voids drinking in what should be total darkness. Planks of plywood stretch overhead. Panic forces your hands up until you're scratching against the wood, scrambling for freedom. Terror and rage bleed out of every pore.

Soil falls into your mouth. You gasp. Oxygen floods your throat and sets it ablaze. You're on fire. Your stomach spasms, a cramp bringing tears to your eyes. Hollow--empty. Starving.

You've been buried alive.

"Knock it off. You'll be out in a second."

You wake up in a grave. Your grave. Fuzzy memories come crawling back. A nightclub. A stranger. A flashing smile; teeth in your throat. They creep back until you remember your own death. Before the details settle, steady hands pull you out of your casket. You've changed, the mouth that killed you explains. The caterpillar and the butterfly. You're something else, something better. A vampire.

I kissed you. I killed you. I turned you into a god.

FEATURES:

Be reborn as a fledgling vampire brought into a world unlike any you've ever known. The city comes alive at night, it turns out, for those whose hearts have long since stopped beating.

Play as a man, a woman, or nonbinary; trans or cis. Customize your appearance, your pronouns, and build up your fledgling's distinct personality throughout the game.

Embrace your new place as a creature of the night--develop your newfound abilities, get to know the other members of your coven, and find yourself knees-deep in a potentially deadly game of politics.

Or reject the life you never asked for. Seek out a cure and potentially help more than just yourself...or become obsessed with revenge, doing everything in your power to vanquish the undead.

Seek out love after death...or something like it.

Neverland is an 18+ dark supernatural romance work in progress in the early stages of creation. It's a story about terrible people doing terrible things to one another. And vampires. Mostly vampires. This is my secondary project and for the time being, updates will be extremely infrequent.

I never thought I'd see the day, but here we are!! Chapter Four, part 2. This update took a lot out of me; but I'm extremely pleased with where it's ended up. Chapter Four spirals into two separate branches. If there's any update I recommend trying both routes out for, it's this one!

In this update, you can:

Stick around for a bonfire. OR

Get interviewed for a radio show.

In contrast to last update, this one has a lot of updated content warnings. Please check them out here. Parts of this update are pretty intense. I attempted to update the character builder for part 2; but, as always, a full playthrough of at least the chapter will get you the most genuine results <3

Howdy everyone! I'm going to keep this brief; but I'm looking for a few more beta testers! It's been almost a year since I put out a beta call, and tbh some of the sections of the next chapter are. A Lot, branching wise. So I'd love to get a few more pair of eyes on things <3 If you're interested at all in beta reading, please fill out the form below! I don't have a defined date to close the form/to stop accepting new folks--this time around I might do rolling acceptances as applications come around, though I'm not 100% sure on that.

I'll be reaching out through Discord for the most part, so if you apply and get a random friend request that is probably me. Thank you in advance to anyone who applies, and I hope everyone is doing well~

Zugzwang. Chess. Love. Destiny. All the same things, really.

The King is cornered; the pieces set. You remember telling him: In Zugzwang, there are no good moves—there's only destiny. Play as a murderer, a wanna-be hero, a terrible lover, a boy that chases myth the way dogs chase their own tails. Just remember: you cannot save him, it is too late, and checkmate is all but on the board.

holy shit the visual novel i've been working on with a friend over the past 1.5 years is actually a Thing now. it's possessed me it's Compelled me and you should wishlist it on steam now while we sprint towards a Q1 2026 release date...!

Soooo my life has been deeply stressful this week and I decided to cope by finishing this. Oops?

Sharing with y'all 33k words of Croft's POV of meeting MC for the first time. I genuinely have no idea how I feel about it anymore but it's time to share it with the world <3 Hopefully this gives folks something to chew on while I'm finishing the rest of next chapter!

There Will be pronoun bugs, because I am just one guy and could not read every variation. I believe most of the other bugs should be squashed but......just let me know if you spot anything drastic.

Minor warnings beneath the cut, and I hope everyone enjoys being inside Croft's head!!
