Every girl has that guy she will never stop loving & Every guy has that one girl he will never stop fighting for.
Being the Sorting Hat is either laughably easy or would be one of the most difficult jobs you could have in the whole world of Harry Potter.
I don't know if there's any lore, but what do you think it does to a a 12 year old kid if an authority figure that is widely portrayed as infallible tells them they're Slytherin (ie. evil) and then force them to only hang out with all the other kids who've been told they're evil? I can hardly think of a better method of creating turning a quarter of your students into the in-universe equivalent of the SS!
@TheLowKing I'm not quite that invested into Harry Potter lore, but wasn't/isn't Slytherin more of 'mischevious pranksters' rather then evil? At least until Tom Riddle/Voldemort/You-Know-Who said "It's Voldemorting time" and Voldemorted all over the place. I feel like at some point we got about half of Slytherin explicitly hate the 'evil' label.
Also, wouldn't the Sorting Hat be WAY older then anything we see in the books (not including spin-offs and historical lore flashbacks). I feel like the thing's kinda necessary for the 4-house system to work. If it's not as old as Hogwarts, then it probably would have been one of the first Dumbledore did as Headmaster.
Look sometimes I just have the urge to write a big-tittied orc fingering her girlfriend on the toilet until she pees. Don't judge me.
A CIA agent gets involved in the competition, but all he does is drop LSD into everyone's drinks (including his own) and then watches people go crazy.
No no, there'd be several agents, and they'd all be taking notes. Also, you want to drug no more than 50% of the people there because then you get to see all the possible combinations of drugged hypnotists, undrugged hypnotists, drugged victims, and undrugged victims.
One thing that confuses me is my chapters’ views; like, they go from, say, 200~ to 150~ to 200~ to 150~ etc etc… who is skipping?! So weird!
That's what changed a TON between my first story branch (the mid one), the one I made pre 3-month-break (long story, I'll lore drop eventually) and the ones that came after (the two I consider actually well-made); clickbait. I built those early chapters around catching people's attention and giving them what they want (sex) as fast as possible. Now I try to make a real story :)
I usually name my chapters whatever first comes to mind; sometimes that’s a rambling sentence, sometimes it’s a pun. 99% of the time it’s comedic in nature
There are several reasons why the numbers might go up and down. E.g. hub chapters (loops), branching points, links from other sites, publishing multiple chapters at once, ...
Ah! The issue with being bi is now you have twice as many choices to have analysis paralysis over! Bully male cutie or female cutie??
I'm a killer! I'm a killer! I'm a killer! I'm a killer! I'm a killer! I'm a killer! I'm a killer! I'm a killer! I'm a killer! I'm a killer!
I'm afraid I am going to have to start speaking to you like an Instagram Reel user if you do not cease this babbling.
@Thorn_ For some folks, the appeal is embracing that lack of control, for others it is the tension and emotional upset at that very loss of control. There is definitely a different dynamic if, say, a woman is sentenced to free-use duty and her neighbors and coworkers take advantage of that than if she willingly climbs into a free-use booth to let anonymous people use her for their pleasure.
You can still have forbidden sex (within reason) - what if a son/daughter/an in-law etc. takes advantage of the free-use situation? - but it's largely about the emotional investment of the people involved.
I find it odd that someone thinks sex would be boring if it wasn't "forbidden." But I guess we just think differently.
"kissed and nibbled at the nape of her neck" You ever look at your own writing and wonder what the hell you were on when you wrote it?
Trust me, someone somewhere somehow has an alliteration fetish. Also, sometimes eloquence adds to sex. Usually it's forcibly removing the eloquence via toe-curling orgasms that's hot, but the fancy vocabulary has some merit in and of itself. Also, I didn't notice until you mentioned it.
I used my psychic powers to save chyoa. You're welcome everyone. I singlehandedly saved you all. Again.
We're back online! CHYOA is up and running again. If you notice anything that isn’t working as intended, please let me know.
Okay. My settings are clearly messed up because this says today at 5:58 p.m. But For me currently it's 3:20. P.m..
