Weh... a nice comment after all the clowning... wtf.... 🙈
After choosing to write about dead kids, I had to do something to not make the whole thing too gloomy - in fact, my written drafts paint a very different picture from this end result. The whole thing was going to be more cruel, with each of them getting spirited away for their crimes after accepting how awful they were, and inside the cave they would each have to face their truth and lovecraftian horrors individually, then willingly decide to retire from the game one by one after being mindbroken into it, taken away by Cupid's warm embrace. In the end, Ren would sacrifice himself for Emma, then eventually meet her up in Heaven.
As it turns out, I ended up deciding against that and spared them at the last second like a merciful god. They've suffered enough, they know they're shitty people, they have a second chance at life, so they should use that second chance to better themselves into adulthood instead of just coming back to realize *again* how terrible they were in life. TL;DR, sorry for the cave, it *was* meant to be scary until I decided to use it for the rom in romcom 😅
As one of the few people here that has seen how I actually write when I'm not writing LNs, it makes me happy you noticed how I had to adapt my style to fit the tone, haha. THANKS FOR READING, TANK
