I was just minding my own business in my room. TOTALLY not skimping on getting any writing done when I find myself in another world facing multiple choices, and what do you mean I'm not the one answering them!? (You choose what happens next!)
9253191 Its less that I expect unpleasantness, but more that the result from Snowdrift is less... genuine. If Discord has overridden someone's mind in near totality and is making them take actions not of their own accord it comes across as only the artificial persona Discord has programmed enjoying their predicament, rather than the hapless real person trapped behind the mask. It also brings to mind the question of if any of the people who know Snowdrift can actually be called her friend, given her past and personality are a fiction created by Discord.
9266397 Well, I don't know what I can do to ease your worries. Snowdrift will say random stuff, but is always fully aware she's doing it. It's less a persona in her, and more a helping hand in not looking like a changling spy.
As time goes on, these moments will happen less and less as Snowdrift figures out her role.
9266602 Basically it looks like discord destroyed almost her entire mind/identity, and is refusing to let her be anything than what he wants her to be. Given this is a cyoa story, it feels like it defeats the purpose of audience interaction.
Plus it breaks the belief that discord is anything but malevolent.
9352146 Well to be fair, how much did we know of the guy before this started? That's the issue with stories like this. You didn't really get a good grasp of who he was before it all began.
Given this is a cyoa story, it feels like it defeats the purpose of audience interaction.
This one confuses me. You're choosing the direction of where the story goes, with the occasional chance to make them act a certain way.
I think you are expecting something I'm not going to be able to give you.
9352180 Eh, I probably didn't word that very well. I guess its like Discird is ultimately in control of the protagonist, or something like that. And that Discord having done what he did makes him untrustworthy. Or that in part I'm trying to convince a 4th wall aware character to take a certain course of action. Gah, words are hard.
Regardless, I'm looking forward to what comes next.
id choice go with choice c.

You have to vote in the actual poll or it doesn't count.

um... o kay

Can you show me an example? I don't see where I did that.

It's to prevent me accidently counting extra votes. If you voted here and in the poll, I'd have no way of knowing and count it twice.

Ah yes both instances that was intentional. They are purposely saying the full name to tease them.

Tonight is the night Luna and Sand Gust's parents have picked to set up a romantic date for the two of them!

I think that's a bit soon. XD
Eventually maybe we'll see another chapter on this chapter tour?
