Sniping the series that I was working on, that I was planning a mass update for, without trying to contact me, less than two weeks after I last posted an update, is actually really mean. You just wasted a huge amount of work that I did.
@magidoe actually the king is just 19, so a five year age gap (prolly about the same for the knight and the red head, since the three of them give off a childhood friend vibe), which would be not strange at all if they put in a time slip of a few years before making it romantic.
A pomegranate tree.
In the underworld.
Anyone else wondering if Colette is gonna pick up the nickname Persephone at some point? And maybe get adopted by Demeter?
“The Annulled Engagement Leads to the Harem Route” is what this would be called if it were the first chapter of a serialization rather than a one shot.
@Oniku_Niku I think it’s because it got picked up as a shoujo. Shoujo has to stay pg, since it’s more all ages. If it had been picked up for a josei magazine, they could have gone darker, but this is accessible to the same genre audience as stuff like sailor moon and fruits basket, ya know?
@sambucety Simple—because the way it was originally written, it made it seem like people only started liking her once she had paler skin (even the prince didn’t declare his love until after), as if she wasn’t pretty before. It seemed incredibly racist, and just reading it made me uncomfortable...
