mmm i suppose i can give the full story on how i came up with the imouto's guide ૮.ᆺ. ა it ain't that long... ૮ .ᆺ. ა
i think...
so, as
sensei said, ૮o.o ა it starts with a bad Pixiv series, ૮o.oა but the inspiration didn't start with it, it started with an translator's gag page at the end of chapter 41. by
@Sullieman __〆૮o.o ა
this, is what got the worms in my brain whirling to crate [𝓲𝓶𝓸𝓾𝓽𝓸'𝓼 𝓰𝓾𝓲𝓭𝓮] version 0 __〆૮o.o ა
when i read that, i thought to myself "how
would an imouto fix that?" ૮ .ᆺ. ა and when i started working that out, i thought, how "would an
imouto who
got their onii-chan reply to that plea?" ૮.ᆺ. ა
that, created version 0 which only existed in my head, ૮.ᆺ. ა as a new thought quickly entered my brain "would an imouto who got their onii-chan simply ignore the actions of the imouto in this series?" ૮o.oა and then "What would an imouto who got their onii-chan say? wouldn't they give tips?" and so, I got to work on
[version 1], which was entirely made up by me alone, i had nothing to work off of, so it is entirely me winging it with my own existing knowledge ૮×ᆺ× ა pure undiluted scizo ranting right there ૮^ᆺ^ა
Because of that, i was going to give a once over to see if i could think of anything else to add, __〆૮o.o ა so to wind down and clear my mind a decided to read some manga, opening MangaDex ch45 and dropped a couple of minutes ago! ૮ oᆺo ა so i went "fuck it we ball" and dropped v1 ૮×ᆺ× ა
after a few hours,
@chadxm, replied with
[this comment], ૮ .ᆺ. ა expressing their distaste for the harshness of the guide, ૮o.o ა and that
'according to a friend' playful teasing is effective to win over ones onii-chan, ૮.ᆺ. ა but seeing this, i didn't think it was worth writing up a whole new thing just for that, ૮ -.-ა but it did get the brain worms whirling, ૮ .ᆺ. ა which lead me to writing up a whole new thing just for that ૮×.× ა
But anyways, this lead to the creation of version 2, ૮ .ᆺ. ა where i not only worked out a better opening, but also threw in some ways to woo someone. __〆૮o.o ა
yes. those "extra tips to help make your Onii-chan YOURS!" are legit ways to seduce someone, i did some research for v2 ૮„¬ᴗ¬„ა
(also, those tips on gaslighting were stolen from a wikihow article on how to identify gaslighting, i just re-wrote the perspective ૮ .ᆺ. )
Back on topic, i didn't think posting the whole guide again just for (what was meant to be) a couple changes would be good, ૮o.oა so
[version 2.1] was born, ૮^ᆺ^ა a collection of just the changes + a link to v1 ૮ .ᆺ. ა
but after that, the brain worms where still whirling round and round, ૮×ᆺ× ა so it didn't take long for me to being to work out version 3, ૮✧ᆺ✧ა which was v2 with some improvements
(though i don't remember what) + an address from the imouto writing the guide on her opinion on how the imouto from the pixiv series did ૮ oᴗ<ა
however, that series kinda went to shit, ૮
ᆺ ა so, around december i worked on [version 4], ૮>ᆺ<ა this version, ૮✧ᆺ✧ა the one that got posted to the lounge, ૮^ᆺ^ა and my debut to the lounge ૮ .ᆺ. ა
this one is written to be able to stand alone from the pixv series ૮.ᆺ. ა + some other edit between 3 and 4 ૮ .ᆺ. ა
(also don't remember what they were ૮ -×-ა)
Around that time, i was pretty lonely, ૮
ᆺ ა i wanted people to talk to, and i didn't know how to start a conversation, ૮ -×-ა so i thought to myself "wait, don't i have the imouto's guide?" and that, is how " ☙𝓐𝓷 𝓲𝓶𝓸𝓾𝓽𝓸'𝓼 𝓰𝓾𝓲𝓭𝓮 𝓽𝓸 𝓰𝓮𝓽𝓽𝓲𝓷𝓰 𝔂𝓸𝓾𝓻 𝓞𝓷𝓲𝓲-𝓬𝓱𝓪𝓷!!❧ 💚ヽ(≧◡≦)八(o^◡^o)ノ💚 " was born ૮≧◡≦ა ♡
from a one-off gag page from
@Sullieman to me starting to work out how to talk to people ૮^ᆺ^ა
wait, wasn't this meant to be a short story..? ૮×.× ა
