it's such an unfair universe

Anyway, your game sounds really promising, may I ask how the ROs would react to a fake-out make-out scenario? Thank you and have a lovely day 💛

I am! You can find all of my other IFs on my main writing blog @thesesilentwords!

——————————————————————————

Charles: As her lips breeze across his cheek, Charles could feel himself tense up. The familiar tightness within his chest when he thought of her loosening ever-so-slightly; only for it to be replaced by a fluttering feeling within his gut. Could this mean what he thought it meant? Of course not. He’d be a fool to think otherwise.

“Was that necessary, Anon?” Is the response he finally settles on, forcing his heart to calm down. The forest green shade of his eyes glinting with varying emotions. “I think you could have done something else to get your point across.”

… Even if anything else wouldn’t have foolishly given him hope.

Elizabeth: An amused look graces her face as she stares at her darling step-daughter. For the briefest of moments her façade of a meek wife falls away and in its stead is the face of a predator; a predator that’s staring at the most delectable prey she has ever seen. The crystalline blue of her eyes darkened to an enchanting cobalt as she leans forward.

“Next time you do that, darling, I promise you won’t be able to escape.” An elegant hand cups your cheek, crimson painted lips briefly quirked upwards. “Once I have you completely I’m never going to let you go. Remember that before you do a stunt like this one again.”

She couldn’t wait to see if you would…

William: A pout forms on his lips at the brush off. Hazel eyes clearly broadcasting his annoyance at not being able to have fun with you. You had been an enigma within his brain for quite some time; he couldn’t get you out no matter how much he tried. It was quite annoying that all of his usual tactics wouldn’t distract him from his desire to have you. From his wish to be yours…

“That wasn’t nice, Anon.” His pout becomes even more exaggerated; his arms crossing over his chest. “You’re gonna give someone a heart attack if you keep that up. I don’t think I’ll be able to handle having your presence that close again.”

Oh, but I crave it so…

Ivy: An alarmed expression flits across her face as your own brushes past her; an almost embarrassed look following soon after. She couldn’t believe that you’d do something so forward. Something that she would never imagine doing in all of her years. Though you had always been more forward than her. That’s something that seemed to have not changed; even after all your years away.

“Can you warn me next time?” She clutches her book tighter to her chest; hoping it’ll act like a semi-shield to make sure her emotions don’t go too unchecked. “I feel like that’s something you warn someone about, no?”

She didn’t want to think about how your nearness made her feel…

Victor/Victoria: They recoil at the feeling of you getting closer; it was too familiar, to welcoming, and they hated it. Hated that you could still make them feel like this even after all this time. They hated that they got transported back to the day all those years ago when they thought everything was finally coming together; that they’d finally get the happily-ever-after they had always foolishly dreamed of. Until you had ruined all of that…

“Don’t do that again,” they hiss, eyes filled with anger before the look hides behind their mask of stoicism. “I don’t wish to kiss you, Anon, and I hope you remember that.”

Please remember that…

August/Audrey: Their smile could rival the sun in brilliance as you pull away; an amused look gracing their face. Something that causes their golden-brown eyes to glow that much more with their amusement. They don’t quite understand what exactly you had been aiming for, but they hope you were able to find it all the same. Even if you confused them while doing so.

“Did you get what you want, Anon?” They tilt their head, their earlier grin softening into a gentle smile. “I’m curious what you thought you’d get from doing that, but I hope I was able to help all the same.”

Charles: She’s going to get herself hurt…

Elizabeth: She wasn’t what I was expecting… I don’t know if that’s a good thing or not.

William: I just know we’ll have so much fun together…

Ivy: Please don’t drop the vase…

Victor/Victoria: They’re more than I could have ever dreamed of…

Charles: Longing / Apprehension / Renewal || 9-10

Elizabeth: Discovery / Passion / Trust || 8-9 (maybe 10 in certain spots)

William: Passion / Fun / Warmth || 5

Ivy: Knowledge / Rediscovery / Secret || 7

Victor/Victoria: Hope / Longing / Memories || 10

Charles: His calm expression falters for the briefest of moments; inner turmoil becoming like a raging storm as he tries to stem his reaction. “You’re drunk, Anon,” he murmurs, already taking you gently by the arm to lead you back to your room. “You don’t know what you’re saying.”

Elizabeth: An amused look flits across her face before her mask descends once more. “You don’t know who I truly am, darling.” She gently caresses your cheek before pulling away from you completely; needing to put distance between your bodies. “Let’s get you to bed, all right? I think you’ve had enough to drink tonight.”

William: “You like me, huh?” His eyebrows wiggle in an exaggerated gesture, but the gentle quality to his smile showcases how touched he was by the revelation. “I’ll tell you a secret too, okay? Since, I know you won’t remember this in the morning, I want to tell you that I like you too.”

Ivy: The next swallow of her drink gets lodged in her throat; a sharp cough escaping her because of it. The deep brown of her eyes, widened with shock, stare at your glazed expression. She wanted nothing more than to believe, but she couldn’t bring herself to do so. “It’s not polite to say such things, Anon.” She gently dabs at her lip for the remnants of her drink. “You’re drunk. There’s no need to lie to me about such things. Why don’t we get you to bed, okay?”

Victor/Victoria: A pained expression etched itself across their face at your revelation; the emerald green of their eyes darkening to a deep jade because of it. “You should have thought of that before you left me.” Their hand clenches in their lap as they try to keep their voice from shaking; they couldn’t let you get inside of their heart again. Wouldn’t be able to bear a second loss. “I always knew that I’d fight to stay by your side, but you couldn’t do the same for me. That’s something I don’t know if I’ll ever be able to forget.”
