So much pain in this chapter, I am very much looking forward to the reconciliation soon

I want more ...

Ugh, they better fucking make up soon. You're being such an idiot, Evie.

I really don't like this trope. What did you expect to happen?

"I told you to leave, now I'm wallowing in self pity and loathing".

I remember reading a sentence somewhere that went something like, 'The moment you made the decision, you lost all right to regret it'. If she really wanted to distance herself, then she should bury all that pain and hesitation deep enough that it never shows up in her actions or on her face.

I really hope it doesn't take too long for the next chapter!

Well, at least she's decided to go for what she wants now, even if it didn't go quite as planned this time. Time to turn this thing around again.

yeah, Evie, you kinda are an idiot. I'm pinning the blame on the system much more than I am on you, but still.

Angst 100

My conspiracy theory is that if Elsa and Evie kiss, the Villainess System will break since that will flag them for the romance route instead. That's why it suddenly threw up all those warnings.

well eve let me repeat it for you dear, yup you're stupid af, so I hope you come up a better way and realize that you're gay and break the villainess system.

yup better go the way gurl!stop kicking ass the heroine but instead kick ass the fucking system

well eve let me repeat it for you dear, yup you're stupid af, so I hope you come up a better way and realize that you're gay and break the villainess system.

you already saw how strong the system is in ch1. it literally ruined one of the strongest families in the country over night. it might even have some reality bending powers. being scared of what a seemingly omnipotent system can do to you if you dont follow it means you are smart not stupid

Why is everyone calling Yvonne stupid/an idiot? This system has forced her to do awful things, and the one time she refused it destroyed her entire family (when it prompted her to basically kill Elsa, no less). Then here, in a pivotal moment, it flashed a ton of literal warning signs. She has no idea what that could mean (and neither do we). I'd be scared shitless, too.

I think the only way out of this to get them back to the wholesome goody romance is through explaining the villainess system as just saying “hey I want us to continue living together” would probably be kinda weird. I think Elsa has the potential to be isekaid herself. Though I’m still wondering on if she knows the gist of the villainess system herself or if she knows entirely the game she’s in and what occurs in it. She also seems one of the only people in this world to have a personality outside of their stereotypes. I can’t really provide any more evidence or further add on as I’m on vacation without an access to my computer so it’s mostly just a “source: trust me bro” theory so yeah.

The only thing that it's stupid in here is the entire premise, I just can't bring myself to treat these "transported into the videogame" stories seriously because of dumb shit like this, they're always at their best when they ignore this aspect as much as possible. (And yet I keep reading these, I guess I am stupid).

there sure is a post on tumblr to the tune of "there only one thing I'm scared of in fiction and it's seeing a character make a decision that is bad for them but is completely reasonable to make under the circumstances of their story and having readers say that character is stupid because they forget that we the readers have an omniscient viewpoint of the story and the characters themselves do not"

and like god I feel that post in my bones every single time I go into the comments of this story to see what people thought of the new chapter.

But they will end as couple sooner than Claire x Rei

Well, it's not like she actually wants to distance herself. She just feels obligated to try anyway out of fear that she will end up hurting her otherwise because of the villainess system.

Because all she had to do was to communicate with Elsa on what's going on then see how she respond then this whole thing could've been avoided. I highly doubt Elsa would dismiss what Evie would claim if she had decided to spoken up about the whole system instead of bottling it up. The two would've probably tried to do something too by that point.

I honestly would've preferred for the story to go that route. I want to know the mechanic of the villainess system.

I dunno, in Yvonne shoes i'd be worried that talking about the system makes it go apeshit and kill both me and Elsa or some shit like that.

Damn, it's like watching Polanski's Bitter Moon

Author seems really bend on hurting our feelings.

Alexa, play Baka Mitai

Ohhh Yvonne... her reactions are gut-wrenching.

She'd sound like a fucking lunatic! No sane person would ever believe that story, no matter how true it is.

Yeah, Evie, this one’s going to hurt for awhile. You can get her back, but it’s going to take some work.
