A little sneak peek at Saturnalia

Fun times ahead 👀 Costumes and shenanigans!

A man dressed as a cabbage walks by. Or perhaps he's a lettuce?

"A cabbage, I presume," Marcus says, as if reading my mind.

"I wanted to be a carrot," Niall chimes in while looking jealou...

Feedback pls ❤

Here's a little questionnaire, if anyone is feeling like giving a little feedback!

https://forms.gle/DaeM4o9vnLejdui16

Mini game poll

Please, share your opinion on who should be the next month's mini game RO. I'll have to see what to do with this information later. 

Short Story Poll

Scenario Poll (Niall)

Discord is up and running!

Yay! If you don't have an account yet, please consider making one so you can chat with me and the others (who wouldn't want that!).

Also, this was me this morning:

Blooper

I almost thought that I have no interesting bloopers. Then, I realized that I cut a lot of stuff from the banquet. Thirsty stuff.

Thirsty stuff is quite difficult to code in, since there are people who don't want to see that stuff even as an option. I will probably add a lot more oggling at...

Peeing on a Mulberry Tree

Legate's POV

As I put the last olive into my mouth (and make sure to swallow it with care), my mind wanders to the new boy. How nice of him to attend the banquet, even if the situation was clearly new to him. He seems like a nice lad. However, there's something about him that makes...

Q&A

Since I received questions that are also aimed at me, rather than the characters, I decided to answer these author questions this month. I got a bit carried away. Again. Sorry about that in advance.
(Outraged Fox stuff is coming up tomorrow!)

Also, the love language stuff is bit spoilery...

About the next month's mini game

In order to avoid any riots, I think it's time to let old Marcus rest for the next month and let Niall take his place. There can always be a love triangle scenario added into the poll, if you want to. Let me know what you'd like to read about and I'm happy to add it into the next month's poll.&nb...

Flash poll!

Since it was a tie and I don't mind writing either one of those scenarios, a sudden flash poll appears! 

Sudden poll appears

I had an idea. Would you like to be able to choose Quinn as someone you previously had an affair with? Perhaps an affair that was starting out but didn't quite have time before everything happened.

That would mean extra work for sure, a lot more dialogue, I'd probably add that route once I'...

Sneak peek

So, Samhain is nearing its finish line. I will probably share it with you by the time it's finished, even if there's still the bathing scene left for editing and the wrestling scene to top it all off. I think this will take till the end of the month, though. I'm really happy about the Samhain sce...

Marcus scenario poll

These need no introduction. 

Also I'm just kidding, no one is peeing in anyone's soup. (Or are they...)

Short story poll

Backstory stuff will be up for voting next month <3
Remember to hit me up with any Q&A questions you might have (either aimed at me or the characters).

Thank you! <3

(I'm counting on you to vote for the Legate!)

Weekly rambling

Another good writing week. Yay!

I've felt really inspired and excited about the whole Samhain stuff. New plot threads emerged and all that jam. There's a new Celtic god in town. 👀 You can cheat the Twins! Hehe. I also came up with a new stat that will help with the relationships. There's...

Fox tier RO poll

I'd like to have your opinion on this pressing matter. If you'd like to read someone else's scenario, who would it be? 

Hit me up with some topic suggestions! (if you want to)

As is customary, the polls are coming. If you have any topic suggestions for the POV scenes or Marcus scenarios, please let me know. (It helps me out a lot!)

Also, please send me your character Q&A questions (what you'd like to know about the characters, it doesn't have to be just the R...

Mini game coming up tomorrow!

I got a bit carried away with the choices and all, I just finished writing and I really want to polish the text before sending the scenario your way. Sorry about that, they will be delivered tomorrow! Thank you for your patience ❤

Love Triangle wreath scene (Niall's POV)

I don't know why Marcus always moans that he doesn't want to attend these parties. He gives me a look of disdain every time someone laughs a little too pitchy to his liking. And I always give him a smile. When he's in the worst of moods, it manages to even deepen his frown. 

A woman wa...

The Prank of all Pranks (Antonia/backstory)

Aunt Camilla hands me another cookie and I take it with a stern nod. 

I ask: "What do you think about the plan?"

"I think it's deliciously evil. I will help you to execute it."

I knew I could count on her. She dislikes these two fools as much as I do. I'll show them what it...

Sneak peek

Here is the beginning of Samhain, the MC is in for a pickle: 

I hasten my steps. It's one thing to stretch the days worth of celebrations for one night only, it's entirely another thing to spend the half of that time with stupid Romans. I'm not sure what the gods will think of...

Blooper

Sorry I took my time with the bloopers and sneak peeks. I've been in a creative slump and trying to get out of that one. That's why I came up with the closed alpha testing phase, it might help me with any future slumps.

Slumps suck.

Anyways, this is a somewhat spoilery blooper. This s...

About the mini game RO

I wasn't sure if I should ask all of the patrons or just you who are on this tier. Then, I thought that your opinion is the one that matters the most at this moment. I'm an incurable overthinker, thank you for bearing with me haha.

So, about next month... more Marcus?

Marcus scenario poll

This time I added someone else to star with Marcus (or the whole contubernium) to spice things up. I'm not sure how some of these will end up but we'll just see if it comes to that lol.

Short story poll

Here it is! Hopefully there's something piquing your interest. And, as always, you can choose multiple options.

Blooper

There was a time when I thought that the MC could have their own dog. Quinn would've brought him with them. Seeing the remnants of his scenes still makes me want to put him back into the story haha.

I just notice that $!{dog_name} has waited for me to get off my armor. Now that I'm...

Q&A

This got super long, sorry about that. And if it's cringy, then call me cringy, it was fun to write haha.

X: "Thank you so much for joining our Q&A session with the cast of Defiled Hearts. So, our first question is aimed at you, Antonia."

Antonia perks up. "Wow! Ask away!"

X...

The smile (the forest scene/Marcus's POV)

I don't know why Niall would ask that cretin friend of yours to join us; I really need to have a word with him later. Mark my words, Niall: I will get back at you.

Your footsteps echo behind me. Your steps sound normal: the tread is light, like you're used to walking in the forest, but they...

I'm obliged to ask, even if I think we all know the answer

So, is next month going to be another Marcus month? (minigame)
