i love small mentions of olnf in olbaa sm (cant show ss cus of dlc :]) baxters route is so comforting tht i think in the future wedding dlc he'll become our wedding planner?!
I want to say I am. But I haven’t gotten around to watching it yet but my friend introduced me to the first episode and I loved it. If only work would let up on my schedule so I could watch more anime.
who is this DIVA ✨ why is he so gorgeous I need his hair care and skin care and phone number, I can be whatever he wants please just give me one day, one day is all it takes 🙏
Some of my favorites include: Fosters home for imaginary friends, Chowder, Bear in the Big Blue House, Fairly Odd Parents, the original Scooby Doo, and the original Ben 10.
The Og Ben 10 was peek Epicness honestly nothing can top the feeling and the thrill we had when we watched that as kids , i even got caught outside a couple of times mimicking his signature transformation with a Watch my pa bought me. 😅
As for chowder it was like a fever dream, the funny type
I wasn’t too into flapjack. It was really weird to me, every episode I either loved or hated.
But it’s funny you mention pretending to be Ben 10 as a kid. My cousins had a toy replica of the OG Omnitrix and when we visited our grandparent’s house, my brother and one of my cousins rolled down the 50ft hill whilst wrestling for it. XD
Oh right. I just remembered, the original teen titans series!
dora the explorer 💔💔 i faintly remember having a crush on dora, diego, and BOOTS tho 😭😭 i also loved pokemon that shit was (and still is) so goated 🔥🔥
pingu, that one lowk too real looking pig named oliva, and nijntje (also known as miffy … ig 💔💔 (i hate how my gorgeous queen got turned into some lame aesthetic)) were also my favourites of mine 🫶🏽 good times fr fr
I know I said that I finished all of what OL1 could offer but that didn't mean I couldn't replay alright? Also 105$ dlls for 2 people at the water park?! Dem waters better be from icebergs or something!
Updated version of my sona/MC :3 fun fact about him: The first sprain he ever got was due to Qiu daring him to jump down from their hideout! Tobi landed a bit weirdly and ended up spraining his ankle. He was grounded (haha) for a week afterwards >:0
hi guys! i figured i should ask here cus this is more active! im planning on buying all the our life beginnings and always dlcs in steam!! but can i ask if it only works on the app or the files aswell like the files u downloaded from itch io?
Hello! If you buy the DLC files anywhere, they should work on any version of the base game, itch or Steam. However, if you need help specifically with Beginnings & Always, please feel free to post over there! Here's the link to the base game's page, and I'll see you over there as well:
Bacon and Runie would be best friends and would wrestle all the time. Kathryne would likely be friends with Runie as well and use him as shield to avoid social interactions when Bacon isn’t around. I don’t have a sketch of them as adults, but I will soon.
Mari would be like a worried mother, I think? She'd constantly make sure that Runie isn't abt to break anything with his strong ahh body (though she'd also make sure she and they aren't hurt).
She'd be constantly making sure that Sonia didn't get into a scam sell or smthn (she has been tricked MULTIPLE TIMES) she'd also make sure she aint hurt :)
Kel n Damian would've probably collaborated for a game at some point :D he would lift them up like a crane (srry if im wrong but Damians tall right?)
Elias would be TERRIFIED of Runie, because im 70% sure that Runie could snap Elias into half if he tried hard enough.
Runie and Maeve, comfort besties 💕 she’d go to them whenever she’s feeling stressed or everything is to much for her and she’s clamming up. I think she’d try to learn how to make thinks from Runie but I doubt she’ll be good at it. She’d also be there for Runie for whatever they need 🫶
Runie and Haruki would be friends, after Runie displays how absolutely jacked they are. And Haruki may or may not set Runie up on dates with u know who 🤭
Damien and Maeve, basically siblings, they’re twins, twinning, they’re a duo who writes songs and denies there crush and just chills together. they don’t even have to speak they’re just that chill together
Haruki and Damien, father and son. Haruki adopted Damien (even if Damien didn’t agree) and now gives them advice on how to woo people (Runie) and sets them up on dates by inviting them somewhere and inviting Runie somewhere and not showing up, or like, shoving them together in the most cliche wayz
Runie and Vale's dynamic would probably be that one pair of friends where one is obviously in love with the other but doesn't say shit and the one who is like "Oh yeah that's my bestie, Vale! he's so nice to me!" even though the other one is known for being rude
i dunno 😞😞 kojo and runie could really js be doing whatever. maybe ko would watch runie do stuff like making bracelets or plushies or whatever like a curious crow/raven when he’s tired (always 😓) he’d also just get clingy as well like some cat or koala; just snuggling up and burying his head in the other’s neck. (yet he claims to be a tough guy who isn’t a sappy, clingy boyloser for anyone other than qiu and tammy 😒😒)
For ur non-mcs; damian and kojo would either lay on the ground spread out like starfish while talking about music, or maybe kojo’d do damian’s hair 🫶🏽
idk much about what he’d do with the others. maybe he and sonia would get some coffee and gossip?? ko and qinru… well i’d love to see them get along eventually🤷🏽♂️🤷🏽♂️
I'd love to see an option to support a fully mute character My favorite OC is mute, and I wanna put her in here There's a lot of non-verbal dialogue options already, I know it'd take some rewriting but it'd be nice
js go for it eveyeone here is nice, if u get a downvote dw ab it we got a downvote epidemic among us 👀 u can ask questions about others mcs or js post ur mc!!
Maeve becomes a professional singer , extremely popular and known for her masked singing, she hasn’t done a tour or live show yet though. And she’d light on the fake parts of fame through books and poems. Later she becomes a song writer once she finishes her singer career at an older age
Haruki is a hair stylist and owns his own hair salon. Part time he’s a gaming streamer and YouTuber fixating on hairstyles, skincare and video games
Nice. Haruki would have a field day with Kathryne as she never brushes her hair growing up. And as an adult, she still doesn’t brush it unless she has to give a lecture. Her hair gets all messy after like two hours on a dig site anyways so she doesn’t see the point of grooming.
lol he’d definitely do her hair, she’d be one of his toughest opponents yet 😭 probably give her a short layered style so her hair doesn’t get in the way during digging
I just imagine him seeing her walk out of the campus lab and start having a panic attack as soon as he saw her tangled mess of a ponytail. To be clear, she brushes it in the morning as part of her daily routine, not that it does much good.
Runie becomes an owner to a very well known product shop. From handmade plushies, commissions, and merch? Theyve got it all there! He also works as a part time self-defense gym instructor due to his strength. The people at the gym hes working at love him (especially the senior citizens, bro got that ‘I want my grandchildren to marry you you’re the perfect son-in-law’ beam LMAO)
Im actually kind of embarrassed if this sounds too OP but I imagine SOME of the worlds (OLNF’s world) strongest people (i think about 8 people) like boxers, martial artists, weight lifters were all students of Runie at one point.
The interviewers ask: “How did you come to be this strong? You must have had a very strict trainer!”
Weightlifter: Oh yes! Hes one of the strongest people I know :D heres a picture of him!
[insert a soft, gentle looking man who looks like he never lifted weights or did any type of extreme sports in his life.]
Oh, trust me, I do not look like a martial artist at all but here I am.
Also, remember how I said Bacon was basically a solid wall due to his freakish weight? I’m actually working on drawing him in a Darksouls/Bloodbourne boss outfit.
My plans for Leonard in Step 4 are for him to start his career as a painter, during this period he is still not very recognized but he already has enough to start living off his art, only in the future would he gain more recognition as an artist.
As a friend of mine's MC lives in the same universe and in Step 4 starts a career by opening a natural medicine store, we ended up deciding that Leonard would also become his business partner.
Mari would probably be an editor for a company (making artwork, logos, ads etc) mostly because she isn't good at anything else and retail would be hell for her ;-; (she wouldn't likely hold a high position either, because that means speeches and she HATES that) She might also do youtube in her freetime, being anonymous and making vids of her favorite fandoms n stuff
Kel would be a solo pianist, making background music for those aesthetic games n such (which would probably go viral at least twice)
Idk abt Elias because his frail body would disallow him from most jobs (if he ever got a cure though he'd probably be a doctor/scientist and research his way to cure other diseases n such)
Nice! Being a professional musician can be tough sometimes so props to Kel. Let’s hope Mari doesn’t get burnt out since her position would require her to do a lot of work. And I feel bad for Elias, my man has it rough. An office type job might work for him though.
OH NO 😭 Fun fact Mari is very vulnerable to burnout so rip her 😔 I think Elias would be able to do office job, though he'd need to have shorter work hours to decrease chance of fainting 👍
Vale becomes a fashion designer, singer and author but really wants to do Broadway but his mom said "No don't do that it's not in our culture even though my parents also said that to me about artt" (he and his mom have beef) then he ends up not listening because he's been a theater kid since he was a todler
Love it. Typical “I’m an adult! You can’t tell me what to do anymore mom!” Let’s hope he makes it big! Otherwise here’s to his long career of waiting tables between plays!
It took me 4 Different poses and references to even think of drawing this and it isn't even Complete, i cannot capture the true essence of my Golden haired Gremlin, anyways Here is Leaf i guessi may attempt to complete it tomorrow since i can only seem to focus when i am Energised and Hungry i guess
back here with grown up Gavin. i did make another post that explained some of his backstory but unfortunately it was a bit too intense so i took it down. but anyway! here is the drawing and some basic info.
other info: he owns a calico cat named Mako and a parrot named Curtis, and he works as a musician, Specifically a guitarist|bassist, but he also works a part time job as a mechanic! :)
I feel like him and my Non-MC Sonia could get along well since their expertise are mainly around fixing things. AND HE CAN PLAY MUSIC?? Hes literally such a catch omg
I really wanna see his pets as well. And hes an animal guy at that?? My heart, be still 😔😔
I wonder if a third game would come out and the default last name of the third mc is First lol I hope we can return to being friends with baxter in this game or at least meet the cast from the first game or even an easter egg lol i had so much fun playing the demo (ㆁωㆁ)
What are your MC’s voice claims? AND share a sentence of dialogue from your OC that represents them well! Or just an excerpt of a scene they're in :)
Runie has varying voices throughout the steps but his Step One Voice Claim is Crona from Soul Eater!! So all in all
Step 1: Crona (Soul Eater)
Step 2: Wirt (Over the Garden Wall)
Step 3: Sal Fischer (Featherfall dub)
Step 4: Kaeya (Genshin Impact)
Runie:
(OLNF universe)
[ What a silly boy. To think that they would feel loved if he only showed the parts of him that weren’t rugged, broken, and rusted. To show only the sunflower smiles and the bright laughs. And to hide the bitter shame and self deprecation through a mask of kindness.
A mask would wear out eventually.
In reality, Runie feels the most loved when someone looks directly at the ugliest parts of himself. When it’s oozing with so much shame and regret, yet someone would still hold their hand to tell them,
“I love you, I love you, I love you.” ]
[ “I’ve never been able to get over.. that fear, of my weirdo strength.” Runie laughs sheepishly, reaching his hand behind his neck to rub it subconsciously.
Damian frowns, “You don’t have to rush.” His hand slowly comes to Runie’s own hand, holding his wrist and gently caressing the pulse. “People are always scared by the abnormal.” Damian rests his cheek on his hand, “It always depends, of course, whether its good or not.”
He begins to intertwine their hands together, while his eyes softened at how Runie’s hand seemed to be a bit smaller than his. “I think it makes you more human, that you still care for people despite your strength.”
“You’re still thoughtful , and thats what separates you from the monsters they compare you to.” ]
[ “..You two.. love me?”
“How couldn’t we love you?” Qiu snorts, pressing their nose against Runie’s neck while hugging him close.
Tamarack melts at the scene and hugs both of them close to her, “For once, Qiu said something understandable—“
“Rude!”
“But, he’s right you know?” She chuckled, pressing a kiss on both of their cheeks.
“You’re so loveable, Runie. How could we ever resist you?” ]
Bacon in step 1 sounds like Sthephanie’s (from GTLive) voice for Nugget from Kindergarten then transitions into Michael J. Caboose from Red VS Blue.
Here’s some good Bacon quotes (he talks in 3rd person):
“Bacon doesn’t know what that word means. Bacon isn’t the sharpest Crayon in the knife drawer.”
“Yes, Bacon can drive, but not automatic, only manual”
I don’t have a good character voice for Kathryne yet. I guess a good one for step one might be QiQi from Genshin impact. Then her voice starts to transition to that of Amber from Highway Blossoms (if you’ve ever played that), but like a bit more depressing.
Kathryne quotes: “You two are so loud! People are trying to sleep and my hearing is sensitive you dummies!”
“Why did you think I would I want to meet your ‘boys club’? People are scary, the less I have to talk to the better.”
only just saw this somehow. But yeah, Kathryne was pretty introverted and uncomfortable before she moved so needless to say, she is not happy about being in Golden Grove. She doesn’t want to be there or be a part of it and she makes no effort to hide that fact.
And Bacon is just Bacon. He’s VERY “special” and usually dumbs as brick, but is literally a genius when his brain actually kicks in. And that statement is true btw. Bacon cannot drive a car with an automatic transmission, only ones with a clutch.
Anyways Leaf's would be "The Song of the sea" or as i watched it before "Le chant de la mer"
[Scared as always now aren't we , i know that feeling, the world is frightening there are way too many threats to ignore,yet if you Focus on seeing the cracks on the ground you will miss the Flowers growing in between, Leaf the world is unique and if you spend way too much time seeing the world in its worst, then you will miss out on the Beauty surrounding it, Find the beauty inside the people and mostly the one inside you]
Kojo has quite some voices, too, but these are his voice claims per step.
Step 1: Ash Ketchum, specifically in Pokemon Sun and Moon.
Step 2: Shikamaru, Naruto. (Dub.)
Step 3 and 4: Alucard, Castlevania: Nocturne. His voice doesn’t really change after 18.
Anyways, here’s dialogue for my son 🫶🏽 :
[ A routine of waking up, doing his tasks for the day, going back home, and then getting to bed. A standard for the boy who was looking into the mirror.
The boy stretched the skin of his cheeks, inspecting the way his face wrinkled when he frowned. He opened his mouth, looking at the teeth inside; they were all just the same as always. Perfect.
Kojo didn’t like change. Hell, he loathed it. He preferred a simple black coffee with an unhealthy amount of sugar and espresso over those fancy ‘aesthetic’ drinks any day. A good book over going out, a multitude of playlist with 60-ish songs over a full, unorganised playlist with a 1,000+ songs; the list went on.
Life, however, did not agree with Kojo’s mundane and uneventful approach on it. At first it bothered the boy, a lot. But now, all grown up and older, he found himself not so irritated by change anymore.]
[ “Y’know, I never thought I’d stay here forever.” Kojo said as he and Tamarack lay down in the latter’s backyard, spread out like starfish.
Tamarack hummed softly. The girl could find herself relating to the 4 month older boy; she was just as agreeing with the statement as he was. The amount of anxiety filled moments when her parents swinged around? Gods above.
“And never did I think I’d get the coolest, most beautiful and amazing best friend out of it.” Were the soft, adoring words that came out of the green-eyed teen’s mouth. There was shuffling, and suddenly there was a bundle of warmth on Tamarack’s side.
“I love you, Tammy. You’re literally one of the best, if not just the best people I could ask for. You’re an angel; a blessing from the Heavens above, even if you can’t see it yourself.”
Tamarack giggled and rolled her eyes with affection, no real heat behind the action. She shifted onto her side as well, facing Kojo and letting the taller, more muscular boy cuddle her. Kojo had told her these words a thousand times before, but every time they managed to make her feel even warmer inside than the last. For a teenager who was claimed to be ‘rude’ or ‘apathetic’ by his peers, Tamarack found her best friend to be the most sappy, poetic person she could think of.
“I know, you big sap. That’s why I’m your soulmate, right? Even if it’s not in the romantic sense or whatever; in every universe, we’ll meet each other.” ]
[ Kojo blinked, eyes widening as rain poured down on him and the person opposing him. Did he hear that correctly?
“… What? Don’t— You’re not fucking with me, right?”
The person who’d been opposing him sighed, a sorrowful look on the canvas that was their face. That person was Qiu Lin; Kojo’s seven year long crush, who’d just told Kojo they loved him.
“What— No! Why would I lie to you, especially now?! I love you, Kojo. So fucking much. I have loved you since your stupidly curious-but-cute self broke into my backyard.” Qiu panted, sounding out of breath. They hadn’t meant to confess, truly! It just… slipped out in the heat of the argument.
Kojo blinked once again, like a confused raven, or a puppy waiting patiently for a snack. A second later Kojo was right in front of Qiu, his hands cradling their face as the process of realisation was evident in the former’s eyes. They both just stared at one another, panting from the previous argument, slowly steadying their breathing rhythms.
“You love me— have loved me. For seven whole years, to be exact. And you pushed me away because you couldn’t understand yourself, but more so your feelings for me?”
A loud noise of laughter left Kojo’s lips, eyes crinkling with joy and those sharp canines showing. It was a genuine laugh; something he hadn’t done in years.
“You’re a fool — an idiot and an imbecile. Do you know how long I’ve waited for you to utter these words; that you love me? Do you know how many daydreams I’ve had about you and me, loving one another? Gods above, you’re—“
Kojo’s ranting was silenced by the soft pressure of someone else’s lips on his — Qiu’s lips on his. He returned the gesture with ease, letting his crush’s hands snake around his waist.
“Gods, this is even better than in my dreams.”
A pleasant sigh from Kojo, and a soft laugh from Qiu.
“You’ve dreamt about this?”
“Don’t tell me you haven’t! …You have, no?”]
(oh yeah, gave tamarack a bday since she doesn’t have one canonically im p sure. It’s April 21st, cause Tamarack reminds me of spring for whatever reason. My bday hc for Qiu is July 6th, actually, despite their name being Autumn lmao)
YOOODBJSJXB QIU AND KOJO’S SCENE GAVE ME BUTTERFLIES THAT WAS SO SWEET 😭😭😭
Also can we just admit how underrated platonic soulmates are?? I love how Kojo found his soulmate in Tamarack its just so HRHRHFHDHD PLATONIC ADORATION IS LOVELY !! THANK U SO MUCH FOR THIS ASANTE
I’ve been struggling to find a voice claim for my ocs, but so far I have Babette from beauty and the beast for Maeve in step 3!
Step 1 Haruki is strawberry crepe cookie from cookie run, step 2 Haruki is hunter form owl house! I’ll finish writing this in the morning bc it’s 3 am but I wanted to write this down before I forget-
Yayyy I’ve slept and ready to yap >:) I may or may not be running on minimal sleep but still- I’m not sure wym by excerpt but I’m using context clues so I made short stories mb 💀 - basically the bold is the lines the va has said I have no idea what to do with 1 + 2 Maeve bc she has a French accent and I have a very specific idea of what she sounds like but I can’t find a French voice actor that does like soft or more gentle voice and I’m actually crashing out about it 😭
Step 1 Maeve: ???
Step 2 Maeve: ???
Step 3 + 4 Maeve: Plumette/Fifi from Beauty and the Beast Disney Movie Cartoon
Maeve looks around her new penthouse, large space, white walls all around and a wall made completely made of reinforced glass. It’s all she ever wanted…right…?
She rubbed her neck as she watched the movers move her stuff. She liked her old apartment it was small and cozy. Everything here was to…new, nothing feels like home to her, but it’s unlike she has a choice. Her manager said she needed to move for her safety from fans, yeah…
She shook her head, fidgeting awkwardly, she’d not sure what’s supposed to do exactly. Everyone around her had a place, a job that needed to be done. she was just…there. Maeve picks up their bag of personal belongings and headed towards the back, a feeling of unease settled in her stomach, this was her dream, she was going to be a singer, safety is first…always…
She pulled out things, her blanket since they had since she was a baby, their scrap book, a candle, and a two lighters.
She held the blanket up to her nose, calming her nerves slightly, she’s still near home, near Mama and Qiu and Tammy, but for how much longer?
She shook her head, d pulling such thoughts. And grabbed the lighters. She just needed to clear her head with her favorite scent, it always took her back to home. It was her moms favorite scent, vanilla and honey, and smelled like a dessert. She grabbed the red lighter and shook her head, chuckling to herself, “Oh no no no no no, I’ve been burned by you before,”
She grabbed the blue lighter and let he candle, sighing softly. She’d be alright. She had to be, she had to be…
Step 1 Haruki: Strawberry crepe cookie
This guy was really getting on his last nerve.
He tried, actually TRIED this time to listen to his ‘directions’. Following instead of taking the lead. He knew it wasn’t going to end well. Because who’s a better leader than him in all of Golden Grove?! Supposedly his new ‘friend’. According to Qiu he needed to, ‘spread his wings, make some new friends’ try not to be so judgy. More like new ENEMY.
Haruki is sweaty, tired, bored and REALLY fighting the urge to strangle this dude, Jim? Jupiter? Jackson? Whatever it was it was irrelevant just like his need to be in the middle of a FOREST searching for some DUMB MYSTERY PLACE-
“We’re almost there,” John said, a proud puff in his figure. But haruki could tell that he was lying. Because John was not a good liar.
“Yeah….suuuuuure,” Haruki rolled his eyes, stepping over a sharp stick, that he wasn’t planning to use at all if this was all for nothing-
Jillian groaned, “Just trust me okay? I’ve got this feeling in my gut-“
Haruki snapped back, “And I’ve got a feeling of hunger in my gut, but you don’t see me leading you on a wild goose chase to a restaurant?!” He stomped, on an rock, it hurt, but he didn’t let it show.
“If we don’t leave soon I’m going BACK home to CIVILIZATION because I am NOT built for the outdoors! I could get RABIES? RABIES, MY PRETTY FACE MARRED MY RABIES?!”
Justin groaned, “Do you even know what rabies is?” Looking left, right, left again, then continuing forward.
Haruki spluttered, his ears tipped pink, “Uh, yeah, duh?! Psh, of course I do!” He hoped that his hair covered his ears enough, he knew his own tell, unlike like Justina over there,
Jasmine deadpanned, “You’re lying,” crossing his arms, causing the jacket to wrinkle
“Hey! Are you calling me a liar??? Rude! I don’t have to listen to this nonsense, I’m outta here, have fun getting lost!”
Haruki marched away, flicking his hair behind him, “Later Joli. We aren’t gonna work out.
“MY NAME IS BRYDEN-
Step 2 Haruki: Hunter from Owl House
Haruki crouched low, watching little bug win the forest. Was it his cup of tea? Absolutely not, he’d rather be inside playing video games. Instead he was out here, in the forest. But he was determined to heal his friendship with Tamarack, no matter how…unpleasant it what.
He nodded, trying to follow along with what Tamarack was saying about some frog. It’s kinda cute, in an ugly sorta way. Something that you’d hate so much to the point you love them, reverse psychology or whatever the hell it’s called.
He scratched his neck, cocking his head to the side, the frog, looked like a gremlin and a bumpy stick had a baby, if that made any sense.
Haruki fiddled with his earring, coming back to the conversation, nodding along as he asked Tammy about their eating habits, desperate trying to keep down his lunch as the frog slapped its eyeball with his tongue.
Haruki spared a glance at Tamarack with a soft smile, he’d been well…a shitty person to be honest, he admits that. But he’d been able to win back Qiu’s favor, mostly they share bromance, but that doesn’t mean he couldn’t rekindle his bromance with Tammy, bromance exceeded all genders.
He yawned, nose scrunching as the frog hopped closer. Fighting the urge to punt it across the yard, for Tammy’s sake.
Then out of nowhere Tammy held up the frog and showed it to him, he jumped back, startled. The stench from that thing is so putrid, absolutely horrendous his mouth slipped before he could catch himself, “EUGH that think smells awfull why are you touching it with your hands?!”
Step 3 and 4 Haruki (Beta Testing): Ryuji Sakmoto from Persona 5
Haruki was a good friend. The best best friend he’d say. He cleared the day to help Qiu get ready for the ‘not date’ with Maeve. The person they’ve been crushing on longer since he’s known the dude.
Qiu is awesome don’t get him wrong. He’s nice, funny, popular, the problem they are absolutely clueless when it comes to love, insert Haruki, the aroace Cupid nobody knew they needed.
Haruki had already given them a premise of what to do, ‘Compliment, pay for whatever, NEVER tell them what they should get, politely suggest’ the basics for their ‘not date’.
It’s a blessing that that Maeve is a sweetheart who has a blatantly obvious crush on Qiu that she tried deny, or Qiu would not have a chance.
Now it was just time to wait for Qiu to show up, he said he borrowed his clothes, and as much as he loved Mr. Lin, he had no sense of style, at all.
His mom was out at work, so they had he entire house to themselves, minus Lola, the deranged chihuahua he had in the cage, didn’t need the ankle biter hurting Qiu before the meet up with Maeve
The door bell rang.
Finally damn, for someone who’s lives in the neighborhood over it took Qiu 30 minutes to arrive after said time chosen.
Haruki hopped up from the bed, checking his appearance in the mirror, skincare has been keeping his skin clear and glossy, hair is amazing per usual, and his clothes, even if no one really was seeing him, were top notch.
He went to the front door, and swung it open, blinked once, twice, and wheezed out in laughter. Qiu looked back, trying to be unamused but a smirk played on his lips.
“Dude what’s with the belt, you looks like you got kicked out of as Magic act,”
Sorry for the long response (can u tell I like writing stories??) 😭 🙏 I’m prob gonna change step 3 and 4 Haruki because I’m not in love in love but I can’t find anything else yet but who knows also I did not proof read do mb for the mistakes 😔
THEIR STORIES ARE SO GOOD NOTNY OMFDGDSI id be blessed if by some chance you or in the future this would become animatic, Id love to see this in animation form euueueu
I’ve been practicing my drawing style!! (Soon to debut with Maeve and Damien duet) once I really get good I’ll def try to make them in animatics hehehehe >:)
erm… since people are getting told off for sharing MC trauma (which makes sense because, well, the demo is all cutesy and shit and if the comments were depressing asf it’s weird as hell and also might be triggering idk 🤷🏽♂️🤷🏽♂️🤷🏽♂️)
but me personally , i still wanna hear some of you guys’ MC’s backstories (not necessarily trauma related or anything, joyful, happy and healthy backstories r always welcome too) so maybe you guys should share ur discord or other socials in the replies (if that’s fine w GB Patch cuz technically that’s promoting in a way i think???) because then you guys could still share stuff abt it THERE while ppl HERE can share their reviews of the game as well as happy and character design drawings of their MCS ya know 🙏
my discord is @qiulins so js send me a msg w your itch dot io user and get to yapping i’d say 👍
İ JUST REPLAYED THE DEMO FOR 8117984931TH TİME AND GOT CRUSHED İNTO PİECES BY A HUGE LOVE FOR TAMARACK SHES THEDEFİNİTİON OF CUTİE PATOOTİE LİKE İTS A CHALLENGE TO GO THROUGH STEP 1 SCENES BEİNG UNABLE TO SQUİSH HER CHEEKS i love qiu too but i think we should take a moment as a society sometimes to appreciate this sweet little ginger lady
If you played any video games as a kid, go back and replay them. That’s a good option. Second option is read a new book or reread one you liked. Drawing is also something I do to keep myself entertained.
usually i try to read or put something on. (e.g. something ENTIRELY random or a show i watched a long time ago) other things i do is just think. like, think about the last time i had a certain food, or what i’d do if i was a certain character or something 🙏
ik its been three hours already but i hope you get over your boredom Abnormal 🫶🏽
its been 9 hours but ermm i tend to just go outside and ride my bike for a couple minutes. Or just sleep or cook something new i wanted to try. It keeps my brain happy and not throw a temper tantrum !
Hello! This story is a bit too intense, and would be better shared on another social media platform, rather than this game page. We would ask you to please delete it. Thank you for understanding!
My OC Hawe a lot off trama and hi... Hehe welp i rilly Hawe her all telling it to evrbody staved if anybody want to know it i can send it ... Is a lot to take im and she Hawe a story with her skar on the neck she cover up with a bandig... 🤔 So ....
Who in the world is dedicating all their life to disliking everybody's comments like dang bro. this person has to either be getting paid, or is absolutely positively insane.
I knew it as SOON as I saw that hair, those eyes, and that little mole on that boy's neck that it was Baxter. My boy, my sweet boy, right where I need you to be😭🙏. What a lovely surprise, I'm so happy.
I think they still look pretty similar. Just that art style matched OLBA the way it was supposed to. This Baxter was still based from our first Baxter- and here he's really a kid, probably younger than when he first appears in the DLCs of the other OL. I love my boy no matter what form he appears in😭so sad when I remembered he probably wouldn't be part of later steps aside from 1 because he was older and I remember him mentioning how he fell out of touch with his friends in his youth in OLBA.
there is a step 2 sprite displayed for him on the our life wiki if I recall correctly! (fine shyt fr 👅) So I THINK he is still in step 2 but idk abt step 3 🤷🏽♂️
One of my Most traumatized oc: ‘your telling me that my fathers dead, my mother hates me, I accidentally killed my younger sister, my older sister died, I killed my mother. I’ve been a mass murderer since 9, And now I’m forced to exist for eternity as I watch everyone else I know die as my backstory and all u basically got was a some bad company, anxiety and fame scare and romance problems?’
Maeve and haruki: ‘there’s more to it but ye srry’
but OMG Luki looks super cool Liam looks terrified
He comes from a cult family that has a generational sacrifice where they sacrifice the youngest child to their god. Luki was meant to be sacrificed, but he escaped with 4 other children and his twin sister died instead of him, (this was when he was 5, instead of being born with demi god powers like his family he was born a genius) he lived in the forest for years until he was 12 when he created his own "mafia" organization to get revenge against his family. (Basic summary) he has even more truama than that that's just the basic details 😅
OMG THAT’s SO COOL if u make it a story id def read it. Nadine (the traumatized oc’s name) made basically a mafia too called the Blood Rose society!! But instead it’s to take down the monarchy and government structure since it’s corrupt, she’s a demigod who becomes a god!!! Rip traumatized Luki and Nadine 😔🙏
He was born into the main cult of 5 branches of cults that worship a god😔💔💔 now he's a mafia boss trying to kill the cult AND god after his twin sister got sacrificed instead of him 😔
Hey folks, this particular thread has gotten a bit far off topic from Our Life: Now & Forever related content. We'd ask you to please refrain from carrying it on further, at least on this page. Thank you!
I don’t know if you mean if with the ‘new version’ you mean if the characters are in their teens, but no! The demo is still mainly focused on the characters being ten-year-olds.
We still have a small preview of Step 2, but if you played the demo a long while ago, when the preview was that you went to the love interests/Qiu’s backyard (I think?) to pick them up and go to school, that has changed! You now have a preview of the start of the day before where you go over to both Tamarack and Qiu’s houses to check up on both. (Just a general check up on Qiu, and help Tamarack with a call with her mom.) In the beginning where you talk to your mom she says the both of you’ll go and get a phone after that, however that is not in the preview if I’m correct. (It’s been a bit since I’ve played as well, so take this with a grain of salt, please!)
I don’t know how long the feature has been around, but you can choose what type of hair your mom has as well! If I recall, you got a given hair type/style depending on which skin colour you chose for Opal, but if my memory serves me correctly you can pick for yourself now.
Again, PLEASE take this with a grain of salt since I have not played OLNF for a few weeks now, but I don’t think there have been any major updates. 😣
some information i could not fit into the drawing: in his first two years of high school he was a part of the football team before quitting to focus on his role as guitarist in the music club, though he did still sometimes join the team for practice just for fun.
also: he has both ADHD and Autism(which i added based on myself as i have both as well). he was undiagnosed up until his first year of high school where he started having some issues so he went and finally got diagnosed Autism and ADHD.
his favourite subjects are: science(only when they get to do cool experiment stuff), PE, Music, and programming, also occasionally nature|biology but only when it is about the sea and marine life.
fun fact!: sometimes he gets in detention for punching someone who bullies a friend of his, this used to affect his grades as a punishment, but they stopped affecting his grades once the school staff realised it did not discourage his behaviour.
also his nickname is sharky because he loves sharks and just like sharks he might seem unfriendly and have a spiky exterior but he is surprisingly playful and nice.
For Kathryne, I’d associate her with the Lavender Town theme from Pokémon Red/Blue. She’s has a fascination with the occult and is considered to be kind of weird and creepy by step 2.
For Bacon, I’d associate them with the song Hello by OMFG. He’s just a fun, lovable goofball.
Okay SO in the OLNF universe my MC Runie ends up with Qiu and Tamarack (they WILL be in love with eachother and yes im delusional)
Qiu’s dedicated song for Runie - All of the Stars by Ed Sheeran
= Why? Because I imagine Qiu realising their feelings for Runie when they decide to go stargazing together and he looks at Runie, looking absolutely beautiful under the starlit sky.
[“How pretty..” Runie murmurs, an unabashedly open smile on his face, his eyes focused on the stars.
Qiu looks at him, and they feel their heart stutter at the sight of that gentle smile.
…Oh.
“Yeah.. it is.” Qiu says softly.
The moonlit sky casts a light on the two boys, its stars twinkling in its dark void. It was beautiful to anyone that would look up and take the time to admire it.
But Qiu’s eyes only admired the boy beside him, who’s smile reminded him of a sunflower field.]
Tamarack’s dedicated song for Runie - Macaroni Moon by The Rare Occasions
= Warum? Because i think its be so freaking cute if Tamarack realised she liked Runie and just goes ‘Huh, its not really any different.. I just love him even more! :D’ and its literally the fluffiest romance you’ve ever seen its so clear shes smitten TT
[ Runie runs around, jumping on mud puddles as Tamarack takes the lead in front of him. His giggles make her let out a cute laugh as well.
“C’mon Runie! I bet we can spot some frogs here too!” She exclaimed excitedly, bouncing on her heels as she waited for him.
“Wait for me! I wanna see the frogs too!” Runie pants, he held on to Tamarack’s arm when he finally reached her. She leaned her head against his as she searched around for for the frogs, “Just hold onto me so you can keep up.” She hummed.
Runie huffed, but doesn't shy away from her. He leans into her as well, which makes Tamarack blush a little. Her eyes softened when she snuck a glance at Runie who was curiously looking around the path.
She smiled, she couldn’t hide her happiness even if she tried.
‘Liking you is so easy, Runie.’ ]
Runie’s dedicated song for Qiu - Annie’s Song by John Denver
= He heard this song and IMMEDIATELY went to his mom for help to learn how to sing it so he can have something that reminds him of Qiu. When Qiu has trouble sleeping Runie sings this song for him to help him sleep. Its a confession and a lullaby all in one euueueue
Runie’s dedicated song for Tamarack - It Might Be You by Stephen Bishop
= This song played while Tamarack was busy with her projects and Runie was helping her with them. As soon as that song played he was literally just admiring Tamarack with this lovestruck expression like a loser.
ARGHHHH Runie is a SUCKER for old love songs and id imagine he got it from his mother because they dance to it everytime when he was still a little kid 🥹
(Ill probably make one for the dynamic between Runie and his friends but skdnsj im worried this is too long so I’ll stick with theme songs)
Runie’s Theme - Kiss Me (Instrumental) - Sixpence None The Richer
peak writing i need 10 more fanfics with 100,000 words and like 15 chapters, a tv show with 3 seasons (24 eps each), and like 2 movies and a spin off based on their futures thanks 😋😋
LMAOOOO the most i can make is a comic im no novelist like my rat-bro 😞😞
Actually i reverse uno you 😼 YOU MAKE 10 FANFICS WITH 200K WORDS AND 30 CHAPTERS EACH AND A TV SHOW WITH 4 SEASONS AND 3 MOVIES AND SPIN OFFS ABOUT KOJO AND HIS LIFE🫵🫵
okay so for my main mc kojo, in step one and halfway in between step 1 and 2 (so from 10 -13-ish), i would associate him with Scrawny by Wallows, cuz yeah. the lyrics kinda remind me of him. then during step 2 and in between that step and step 3 (14 - 16), i'd either say cats in the cold by mage tears, Open My Door by Alice Phoebe Lou, No Surprises as well as Jigsaw Falling Into Place by Radiohead, Welcome to the Black Parade by MCR or Wiege by BL8M and 6FU; (i can't choose sigh.) in step 3 and 4, i would say luther by Kendrick Lamar and Bonita Applebum by A Tribe Called Quest cuz he's just chill guy in the later stages in his life and a sap for Qiu.
NOW ONTO RELATIONSHIPS 😋😋🤞🤞 Starting with Qiu and Kojo, in step one and in between (also 10 - 13-ish) in the beginning i'd associate them with Glue Song by Beabadoobee, though towards age 13, they'd be more like Y Si Fuera Ella (SHINee version) 💔💔 During step 2 and in between step 2 and 3, i think Saw You in a Dream by The Japanese House, White Ferrari by Frank Ocean, Don't get the deal by Beabadoobee, Paper Planes by tinyumbrella, or Heartbeat, Heartbreak by Shihoko Hirata would fit. (should just make a playlist atp...) In step 3 and 4, they'd be more like Baby I'm Yours by Arctic Monkeys and Those Eyes by New West.
For Tammy and Kojo, their step one and in between songs would be Apple Cider by Beabadoobee and ZOOM UP ! by Kahimi Karie. During step 2 and in between, they'd be more like 4EVER by Clairo, Yes, I'm Changing by Tame Impala, Polaroid Love by ENHYPEN, and APT. by Rose and Bruno Mars cuz Kojo Tamarack had crushes on one another, but they faded at the beginning of step 2 and they are now like, platonic soulmates and shit and they both deal with puberty and high school🫶🏽🫶🏽 in step 3 and 4 Glue Song by Beabadoobee. 💗
Gonna copy ramu rq and give them theme songs:
Kojo - Iwatodai Dorm -Reload- from Persona 3 Reload Tamarack - Want To Be Close -Reload- from Person 3 Reload Qiu - Beneath the Mask from Persona 5/Persona 5 Royal
NO REAL 🙏🙏 like how unemployed do you have to be to take time out of your life to dislike a bunch of comments on itch dot io…. ITCH DOT IO BRO 😭🙏 just put the fries in the bag 💔🥀
If he had a Dolla for every time he disliked someone he would have enough to buy the whole dlc of Our life BA, Minecraft and Terraria and that gotta say something about the way he spends his time
long time since i posted art (four whole days) so have some in sixteen year old kojo and his volleyball design 💗 same year he gets life altering trauma guys 😋 (sorry my beautiful son😞)
i totally forgot i gave him freckles in his step 1 design ... so i added them back 🙏
I did NOT know this guy was a giant, tell me why I thought he was a short king?? 😭 also love the hair he looks saw AWW with it, my poor baby, please be gentle with the trauma 🙏
I know you mentioned in your post that his jersey was inspired by haikyuu. But before I read that I looked the art and thought “that looks like the Kurasuno jersey. XD
YEAHHH ‼️‼️ i was originally gonna make em look more like kenma and co.’s jerseys but blue instead of red (i forgot the school name mb) but then i was like… lowk kurasuno’s jerseys look fire 🤔🤔
HELPP IM GIGGLING EVERYONE (one other person) IS SO SHOCKED THAT KOJO IS TALL LMAO 😭😭😭 he got his tall genes from his dad so … idk man 🤷🏽♂️ you’d have to start a journey as a pirate looking for this thing called the ‘one piece’ if you want them 💔💔
look i thought he was average sized NOT A GIANT!!!!!😨Can't you spare a few inches some of them need it *looks at maeve, runie kel and basically almost the entire fandom* his hairs awesome asf tho so-
(where did he get that mouth scar btw? if it's from that woman im boutta make her regret living /hj)(also the school name is riverview peak :])
THANK YOU FOR THE NAME POOKIE YOUR A LIFE SAVER 🙏🙏🙏 also no ,, not that woman thank god 🤞🤞 it was from his fight with qiu when he was like 12 - 13.
basically: argument (two words) -> pushed onto the ground -> punched to the side -> lip got stuck on small rock -> scar.
like qiu kinda punched him and then yeah… kojo didn’t really feel it tho, he has a high tolerance for pain 🤞 (or well, higher than average cuz it still hurt in the end 😭😭)
kojo would never fight tammy that's his platonic soulmate right there 🤞🤞🗣️🗣️
oh no, their fight was during winter or something cuz i'd imagine kojo being one of the people qiu pushed away during the time between step 1 and 2. They have beef up untill, like ... about age 17?? Then the two have some argument-turned-love-confession in the rain and they kiss and at the beginning of step 3 they're in love 😞💗

I don't like this drawing but I wanted to show this since it's been sitting in ibispaint x 4 too long. :3
I have drawing block or smth like that. For days and days I've had this. I hate it. Aghhhhhhgh
my OL2 OC<(￣︶￣)>
SO HANDSOME??? OMG PATPATS HES SO GORGEOUS 😭😭🙏🙏
Don't trust him
He's deceiving you with his beauty
He's a a master of psychological manipulation 😰😰😰😱😱
And banned from 26 countries
Call me Britney Spears the way im in love with a criminal 😔
From my experience, i can say that this Grin is very Suspicious , sorry to say but i cannot trust this guy
OH CRA-
This is so good hello!
Why dies he give me the same vibes as Izaya from Durarara?
,,do my eyes deceive me? RARE DRRR FAN SPOTTED? ??
I want to say I am. But I haven’t gotten around to watching it yet but my friend introduced me to the first episode and I loved it. If only work would let up on my schedule so I could watch more anime.
its really good!! I think if you like psychological animes youd love it :D
Durarars fan spotted
HELLO SAILOR 😋😋❤️ what a beauty ,, this art tastes like rich coffee and liquorice (this is good btw, i love liquorice 🙏🙏)
he looks like he’d get along pretty well w my mc 🤷🏽♂️
who is this DIVA ✨ why is he so gorgeous I need his hair care and skin care and phone number, I can be whatever he wants please just give me one day, one day is all it takes 🙏
HEAR ME OUT YALL 😦😦😦🙏
OH MY GOD *turns into tamarack or qiu or whoever is your oc's s/o*
Hmmm lately i have been remembering old Shows like Green Mask and Jackie adventures , and i wanted to ask what are some of your all time favourites
pj masks n masha n the bear my beloveds 😔🩷🩷🩷 Mari def grew up watching them
Masha & the bear is pretty good ngl
Some of my favorites include: Fosters home for imaginary friends, Chowder, Bear in the Big Blue House, Fairly Odd Parents, the original Scooby Doo, and the original Ben 10.
A person of my own Tastes
Ah. A man of culture I see.
The Og Ben 10 was peek Epicness honestly nothing can top the feeling and the thrill we had when we watched that as kids , i even got caught outside a couple of times mimicking his signature transformation with a Watch my pa bought me. 😅
As for chowder it was like a fever dream, the funny type
And There is one other Show, Flapjack was it?
I wasn’t too into flapjack. It was really weird to me, every episode I either loved or hated.
But it’s funny you mention pretending to be Ben 10 as a kid. My cousins had a toy replica of the OG Omnitrix and when we visited our grandparent’s house, my brother and one of my cousins rolled down the 50ft hill whilst wrestling for it. XD
Oh right. I just remembered, the original teen titans series!
Moomin (1990) :0 i am rewatching right now! and care bears (1985)
YOOOOO i always wondered what was the name of that show , Moomin huh , Thank you!
dora the explorer 💔💔 i faintly remember having a crush on dora, diego, and BOOTS tho 😭😭 i also loved pokemon that shit was (and still is) so goated 🔥🔥
pingu, that one lowk too real looking pig named oliva, and nijntje (also known as miffy … ig 💔💔 (i hate how my gorgeous queen got turned into some lame aesthetic)) were also my favourites of mine 🫶🏽 good times fr fr
Personally i was more of a Diego guy , something about the way Dora called out for help in all her stuff got me to Absolutely go nuts
Nah They are Facing Inflation even in that Version of The Universe 😭
that’s too real man… too real.
Updated version of my sona/MC :3 fun fact about him: The first sprain he ever got was due to Qiu daring him to jump down from their hideout! Tobi landed a bit weirdly and ended up spraining his ankle. He was grounded (haha) for a week afterwards >:0
*eats your oc/sona/mc up*
hi guys! i figured i should ask here cus this is more active! im planning on buying all the our life beginnings and always dlcs in steam!! but can i ask if it only works on the app or the files aswell like the files u downloaded from itch io?
Hello! If you buy the DLC files anywhere, they should work on any version of the base game, itch or Steam. However, if you need help specifically with Beginnings & Always, please feel free to post over there! Here's the link to the base game's page, and I'll see you over there as well:
https://gbpatch.itch.io/our-life
Thank you for playing! We hope you enjoy the game.
tysm excited to play it!!
#2. Mellowduo (Maeve and Runie) & Haruki giving the shovel-talk for both of his children
[ “Come here you! We haven’t hung out in so long.” ]
[“We hung out a week ago, Bêta.”]
And heres Haruki giving the shovel-talk LMAO
Melodyduo (Maeve and Damian!)
CUTIES 🫶🏽🫶🏽 SCRUMPTIOUS ART AS ALWAYS 😋😋
AYEEEEE THANK YOUU this is very good practice for me!! I have never drawn this much in my life LMAO
cool art ig.... (walks away with a suspiciously ramu art shaped throat)
hey wha YO MY ART 😭😭 ‼️‼️
ONG ITS THE CUTIE PATOOTIES 😔😔 better than michelin meals frfr
This is great! They are so cute. Man I wish I could draw right now but I won’t have time until Tuesday. (; _ ;)
.KUBVADFJB,.HV, B THIS IS SO CUTE AND ADORABLE THIS EXACTLY HOW’D THEY ACT UR ART IS AMAZINGNAS USUAL THANK U FOR THE MEAL. 😍🥰
YOUR WELCOMEEEE I HAD FUN DRAWING YOUR BEANS SM 🫶🫶
When he visited Sunset Bird at age 16, Leonard saw a cloud so large that he decided to paint it when he returned to Golden Grove.
I love your art so much OMG! I fell insdequate now, I really need to learn to draw better.
wow, such a delicious painting! ty for breakfast!
HOLY THIS IS SO GOOD
Right so im bout to spend all my money commissioning Leonard 🙏
ACK IT’S SO GOOD 😭
THIS NEEDS TO BE IN A MUSEUM!!!! You can tell were Leon got his painting skills from hehe >:)
funny lil drawing of two of my ocs hanging with Qiu and Tamarack
That’s really funny. I would totally do something like this with my friends if two of us spoke a different language than the others.
im honestly surprised how the downvote guys hasn't downvoted this yet
#1. Yurims Tendencies
(Sketches of my MC Runie with other peoples MC’s :D)
[“You seriously have to stop helping others too much.. you looked like a zombie when I got there.”]
[“You worry too much! Its not a big deal I promise!”]
peak dynamic and peak art
This is great. The art looks fantastic.
yall i need ideas for the next batch of sketches im abt to make TT drop yalls dynamic with MC or my other Non-MCs dont be shy (evil laughter)
Bacon and Runie would be best friends and would wrestle all the time. Kathryne would likely be friends with Runie as well and use him as shield to avoid social interactions when Bacon isn’t around. I don’t have a sketch of them as adults, but I will soon.
Mari would be like a worried mother, I think? She'd constantly make sure that Runie isn't abt to break anything with his strong ahh body (though she'd also make sure she and they aren't hurt).
She'd be constantly making sure that Sonia didn't get into a scam sell or smthn (she has been tricked MULTIPLE TIMES) she'd also make sure she aint hurt :)
Kel n Damian would've probably collaborated for a game at some point :D he would lift them up like a crane (srry if im wrong but Damians tall right?)
Elias would be TERRIFIED of Runie, because im 70% sure that Runie could snap Elias into half if he tried hard enough.
Runie and Maeve, comfort besties 💕 she’d go to them whenever she’s feeling stressed or everything is to much for her and she’s clamming up. I think she’d try to learn how to make thinks from Runie but I doubt she’ll be good at it. She’d also be there for Runie for whatever they need 🫶
Runie and Haruki would be friends, after Runie displays how absolutely jacked they are. And Haruki may or may not set Runie up on dates with u know who 🤭
Damien and Maeve, basically siblings, they’re twins, twinning, they’re a duo who writes songs and denies there crush and just chills together. they don’t even have to speak they’re just that chill together
Haruki and Damien, father and son. Haruki adopted Damien (even if Damien didn’t agree) and now gives them advice on how to woo people (Runie) and sets them up on dates by inviting them somewhere and inviting Runie somewhere and not showing up, or like, shoving them together in the most cliche wayz
Runie and Vale's dynamic would probably be that one pair of friends where one is obviously in love with the other but doesn't say shit and the one who is like "Oh yeah that's my bestie, Vale! he's so nice to me!" even though the other one is known for being rude
i dunno 😞😞 kojo and runie could really js be doing whatever. maybe ko would watch runie do stuff like making bracelets or plushies or whatever like a curious crow/raven when he’s tired (always 😓) he’d also just get clingy as well like some cat or koala; just snuggling up and burying his head in the other’s neck. (yet he claims to be a tough guy who isn’t a sappy, clingy boyloser for anyone other than qiu and tammy 😒😒)
For ur non-mcs; damian and kojo would either lay on the ground spread out like starfish while talking about music, or maybe kojo’d do damian’s hair 🫶🏽
idk much about what he’d do with the others. maybe he and sonia would get some coffee and gossip?? ko and qinru… well i’d love to see them get along eventually🤷🏽♂️🤷🏽♂️
every time i see your art, i eat it all up
Thank you!! (Btw I LOVE LOVE LOVE UR PFP AND USERNAME its like comfort food to my eyes TT)
AWW SO CUTE!! (づ￣ ³￣)づ here let me give that a kiss and hugs *mwah* *mwah*
The pleasure is all mine Yum 😌😌
DELICIOUS ur art looks so light and airy in a good way it’s like a puffy pastry, yum yum yum
I'd love to see an option to support a fully mute character
My favorite OC is mute, and I wanna put her in here
There's a lot of non-verbal dialogue options already, I know it'd take some rewriting but it'd be nice
everyone's MC(s) is so cool!!! (ᵕ—ᴗ—) i'd love joining in on some of the convos but i don't want to be awkward ^^;
Go for it man. That’s how I started posting here.
Yee hath already sworn thy place among us— fear not, thou art one of us 🫶😼
js go for it eveyeone here is nice, if u get a downvote dw ab it we got a downvote epidemic among us 👀 u can ask questions about others mcs or js post ur mc!!
Go for it lad , any attempts are welcome!
Dw pal :) we all came here from an MC introduction so maybe yew could do that :D
Hey guys. I’m at work right now and it is an incredibly slow night. So I got a question for all yall. What is your MC(s) future career?
Kathryn’s ends up becoming a renowned archeologist and professor of archeology.
Bacon, always staying close by their sister, ends up on a similar path and becomes a paleontologist.
Maeve becomes a professional singer , extremely popular and known for her masked singing, she hasn’t done a tour or live show yet though. And she’d light on the fake parts of fame through books and poems. Later she becomes a song writer once she finishes her singer career at an older age
Haruki is a hair stylist and owns his own hair salon. Part time he’s a gaming streamer and YouTuber fixating on hairstyles, skincare and video games
Nice. Haruki would have a field day with Kathryne as she never brushes her hair growing up. And as an adult, she still doesn’t brush it unless she has to give a lecture. Her hair gets all messy after like two hours on a dig site anyways so she doesn’t see the point of grooming.
lol he’d definitely do her hair, she’d be one of his toughest opponents yet 😭 probably give her a short layered style so her hair doesn’t get in the way during digging
I just imagine him seeing her walk out of the campus lab and start having a panic attack as soon as he saw her tangled mess of a ponytail. To be clear, she brushes it in the morning as part of her daily routine, not that it does much good.
he’d be mortified 😭 he’d fiver her her own hair care routine and good brushing habits all for free
Runie becomes an owner to a very well known product shop. From handmade plushies, commissions, and merch? Theyve got it all there! He also works as a part time self-defense gym instructor due to his strength. The people at the gym hes working at love him (especially the senior citizens, bro got that ‘I want my grandchildren to marry you you’re the perfect son-in-law’ beam LMAO)
Sounds rather nice actually. With Runie’s strength, teaching a self defense makes sense. if you can fend him off, you’re pretty much set. :P
Im actually kind of embarrassed if this sounds too OP but I imagine SOME of the worlds (OLNF’s world) strongest people (i think about 8 people) like boxers, martial artists, weight lifters were all students of Runie at one point.
The interviewers ask: “How did you come to be this strong? You must have had a very strict trainer!”
Weightlifter: Oh yes! Hes one of the strongest people I know :D heres a picture of him!
[insert a soft, gentle looking man who looks like he never lifted weights or did any type of extreme sports in his life.]
Interviewers:
Oh, trust me, I do not look like a martial artist at all but here I am.
Also, remember how I said Bacon was basically a solid wall due to his freakish weight? I’m actually working on drawing him in a Darksouls/Bloodbourne boss outfit.
Wait that sounds so cool. i.. I shall prepare to eat your art. WATCH YOUR BACK >:)
Leaf would be A Librarian at a School for the disabled, don't ask why it's something only i'd understand
Hey, I’m not judging. That’s actually a very respectable job.
My plans for Leonard in Step 4 are for him to start his career as a painter, during this period he is still not very recognized but he already has enough to start living off his art, only in the future would he gain more recognition as an artist.
As a friend of mine's MC lives in the same universe and in Step 4 starts a career by opening a natural medicine store, we ended up deciding that Leonard would also become his business partner.
Interesting. I’m guessing he still does art on the side though right?
Before he became a famous painter, probably yes.
And the natural medicines... you can't even imagine how they started xd.
oh, I can imagine. Whether is accurate is another story. =)
Chevy becomes a Clinical psychologist.
Not a profession you hear of everyday. It’s nice to see MC’s not going with the more common career paths, keeps things interesting.
Haven't decided but am replying because I wanted to ask you a few questions about Bacon.
1. What texture is his hair? If curly, how curly?
2. What's the color of his eyes?
3. What's his teeth like? (Braces, snaggletooth, fangs, average)
Curly, not super curly but just really fluffy.
His eyes are a like mine, a grayish Teal.
And his teeth are normal.
Mari would probably be an editor for a company (making artwork, logos, ads etc) mostly because she isn't good at anything else and retail would be hell for her ;-; (she wouldn't likely hold a high position either, because that means speeches and she HATES that) She might also do youtube in her freetime, being anonymous and making vids of her favorite fandoms n stuff
Kel would be a solo pianist, making background music for those aesthetic games n such (which would probably go viral at least twice)
Idk abt Elias because his frail body would disallow him from most jobs (if he ever got a cure though he'd probably be a doctor/scientist and research his way to cure other diseases n such)
Nice! Being a professional musician can be tough sometimes so props to Kel. Let’s hope Mari doesn’t get burnt out since her position would require her to do a lot of work. And I feel bad for Elias, my man has it rough. An office type job might work for him though.
OH NO 😭 Fun fact Mari is very vulnerable to burnout so rip her 😔 I think Elias would be able to do office job, though he'd need to have shorter work hours to decrease chance of fainting 👍
Let’s hope not. Also, Elias would probably need shorter shifts but at least he could earn a living.
very late, but my sona/MC wants to be a writer! He specifically wants to write YA novels focusing on mythological creatures :3
Nice. That’s a fun career, and I love fantasy novels!
Vale becomes a fashion designer, singer and author but really wants to do Broadway but his mom said "No don't do that it's not in our culture even though my parents also said that to me about artt" (he and his mom have beef) then he ends up not listening because he's been a theater kid since he was a todler
Love it. Typical “I’m an adult! You can’t tell me what to do anymore mom!”
Let’s hope he makes it big! Otherwise here’s to his long career of waiting tables between plays!
My MC June was a bartender for a short while before deciding to work in a bakery nothing too special,,（´∇｀''）
That sounds like a pleasant job to have.
Kind of speedran this one, Turned out okay i guess?
Yapper (MC Flora) X listener (MC Leaf)
It took me 4 Different poses and references to even think of drawing this and it isn't even Complete, i cannot capture the true essence of my Golden haired Gremlin, anyways Here is Leaf i guess
i may attempt to complete it tomorrow since i can only seem to focus when i am Energised and Hungry i guess
The reference in case y'all want it and the clothes i was trying to Draw
I Just realised, SHE LOOKS LIKE COVE 😧

At age 10, Leonard always wondered how planes made those cloud trails.
(Simple drawing because I'm lazy!)
I love your art man.

other info: he owns a calico cat named Mako and a parrot named Curtis, and he works as a musician, Specifically a guitarist|bassist, but he also works a part time job as a mechanic! :)

I've been playing this for 3 hours. Tamarack is bbg. I want to make out with Autumn in the hideout. Darren is a bitch. I want to eat Baxter's hair.
I'm very sleep deprived :]
XD lol don't worry i seen step 2 Qiu on the bed ~
REALEST THING EVER
I wonder if a third game would come out and the default last name of the third mc is First lol I hope we can return to being friends with baxter in this game or at least meet the cast from the first game or even an easter egg lol i had so much fun playing the demo (ㆁωㆁ)
ooh, that would be so cool! but i'd doubt GB would make a game like that tho :((
One can hope
Lets lighten up the atmosphere! 😌 ☀️
What are your MC’s voice claims? AND share a sentence of dialogue from your OC that represents them well! Or just an excerpt of a scene they're in :)
Runie has varying voices throughout the steps but his Step One Voice Claim is Crona from Soul Eater!! So all in all
Step 1: Crona (Soul Eater)
Step 2: Wirt (Over the Garden Wall)
Step 3: Sal Fischer (Featherfall dub)
Step 4: Kaeya (Genshin Impact)
Runie:
(OLNF universe)
[ What a silly boy. To think that they would feel loved if he only showed the parts of him that weren’t rugged, broken, and rusted. To show only the sunflower smiles and the bright laughs. And to hide the bitter shame and self deprecation through a mask of kindness.
A mask would wear out eventually.
In reality, Runie feels the most loved when someone looks directly at the ugliest parts of himself. When it’s oozing with so much shame and regret, yet someone would still hold their hand to tell them,
“I love you, I love you, I love you.” ]
[ “I’ve never been able to get over.. that fear, of my weirdo strength.” Runie laughs sheepishly, reaching his hand behind his neck to rub it subconsciously.
Damian frowns, “You don’t have to rush.” His hand slowly comes to Runie’s own hand, holding his wrist and gently caressing the pulse. “People are always scared by the abnormal.” Damian rests his cheek on his hand, “It always depends, of course, whether its good or not.”
He begins to intertwine their hands together, while his eyes softened at how Runie’s hand seemed to be a bit smaller than his. “I think it makes you more human, that you still care for people despite your strength.”
“You’re still thoughtful , and thats what separates you from the monsters they compare you to.” ]
[ “..You two.. love me?”
“How couldn’t we love you?” Qiu snorts, pressing their nose against Runie’s neck while hugging him close.
Tamarack melts at the scene and hugs both of them close to her, “For once, Qiu said something understandable—“
“Rude!”
“But, he’s right you know?” She chuckled, pressing a kiss on both of their cheeks.
“You’re so loveable, Runie. How could we ever resist you?” ]
Bacon in step 1 sounds like Sthephanie’s (from GTLive) voice for Nugget from Kindergarten then transitions into Michael J. Caboose from Red VS Blue.
Here’s some good Bacon quotes (he talks in 3rd person):
“Bacon doesn’t know what that word means. Bacon isn’t the sharpest Crayon in the knife drawer.”
“Yes, Bacon can drive, but not automatic, only manual”
I don’t have a good character voice for Kathryne yet. I guess a good one for step one might be QiQi from Genshin impact. Then her voice starts to transition to that of Amber from Highway Blossoms (if you’ve ever played that), but like a bit more depressing.
Kathryne quotes: “You two are so loud! People are trying to sleep and my hearing is sensitive you dummies!”
“Why did you think I would I want to meet your ‘boys club’? People are scary, the less I have to talk to the better.”
Wait these voices fit them so well oh my god??? THEYRE PERFECT
My favorite quotes so far:
“Yes, Bacon can dive, but not automatic, only manual.”
“Why did you think I would I want to meet your ‘boys club’? People are scary, the less I have to talk to the better.”
I relate sm Kathryne,, high five 😔
only just saw this somehow. But yeah, Kathryne was pretty introverted and uncomfortable before she moved so needless to say, she is not happy about being in Golden Grove. She doesn’t want to be there or be a part of it and she makes no effort to hide that fact.
And Bacon is just Bacon. He’s VERY “special” and usually dumbs as brick, but is literally a genius when his brain actually kicks in. And that statement is true btw. Bacon cannot drive a car with an automatic transmission, only ones with a clutch.
OOOO nice :)
step 1- child pure vanilla cookie but gender bent (idk i can't think or find anything else ;_;)
'Haha, hehe... I'm fine mama'
*this is her after almost getting hit by a car btw*
step 2- zooble (tadc)
'Hey.. hey? HEY! Gosh...' *trying to call out a 'friend'*
step 3- asta from honkai star rail
¹God... i dont think jm surviving college....'
step 4- white lily cookie (crk)
'guys wanna hang out ag the park later? the exams next week? I'll just study later....'
is,, is mari okay? WDYM SHE ALMOST GOT HIT BY A CAR 😭😭
Yeh she’s very clumsy 😓 this has happened over multiple steps btw
My Inner Lizzy awakened after seeing that "Rude!"
Anyways Leaf's would be "The Song of the sea" or as i watched it before "Le chant de la mer"
[Scared as always now aren't we , i know that feeling, the world is frightening there are way too many threats to ignore,yet if you Focus on seeing the cracks on the ground you will miss the Flowers growing in between, Leaf the world is unique and if you spend way too much time seeing the world in its worst, then you will miss out on the Beauty surrounding it, Find the beauty inside the people and mostly the one inside you]
that excerpt is so beautiful 🥹🥹 i hope you’ll make more art of Leaf soon!! Id really love to get to know her more euueueue
PEAK WRITING BTW ‼️‼️ NEED MORE OF THAT 🙏
Kojo has quite some voices, too, but these are his voice claims per step.
Step 1: Ash Ketchum, specifically in Pokemon Sun and Moon.
Step 2: Shikamaru, Naruto. (Dub.)
Step 3 and 4: Alucard, Castlevania: Nocturne. His voice doesn’t really change after 18.
Anyways, here’s dialogue for my son 🫶🏽 :
[ A routine of waking up, doing his tasks for the day, going back home, and then getting to bed. A standard for the boy who was looking into the mirror.
The boy stretched the skin of his cheeks, inspecting the way his face wrinkled when he frowned. He opened his mouth, looking at the teeth inside; they were all just the same as always. Perfect.
Kojo didn’t like change. Hell, he loathed it. He preferred a simple black coffee with an unhealthy amount of sugar and espresso over those fancy ‘aesthetic’ drinks any day. A good book over going out, a multitude of playlist with 60-ish songs over a full, unorganised playlist with a 1,000+ songs; the list went on.
Life, however, did not agree with Kojo’s mundane and uneventful approach on it. At first it bothered the boy, a lot. But now, all grown up and older, he found himself not so irritated by change anymore.]
[ “Y’know, I never thought I’d stay here forever.” Kojo said as he and Tamarack lay down in the latter’s backyard, spread out like starfish.
Tamarack hummed softly. The girl could find herself relating to the 4 month older boy; she was just as agreeing with the statement as he was. The amount of anxiety filled moments when her parents swinged around? Gods above.
“And never did I think I’d get the coolest, most beautiful and amazing best friend out of it.” Were the soft, adoring words that came out of the green-eyed teen’s mouth. There was shuffling, and suddenly there was a bundle of warmth on Tamarack’s side.
“I love you, Tammy. You’re literally one of the best, if not just the best people I could ask for. You’re an angel; a blessing from the Heavens above, even if you can’t see it yourself.”
Tamarack giggled and rolled her eyes with affection, no real heat behind the action. She shifted onto her side as well, facing Kojo and letting the taller, more muscular boy cuddle her. Kojo had told her these words a thousand times before, but every time they managed to make her feel even warmer inside than the last. For a teenager who was claimed to be ‘rude’ or ‘apathetic’ by his peers, Tamarack found her best friend to be the most sappy, poetic person she could think of.
“I know, you big sap. That’s why I’m your soulmate, right? Even if it’s not in the romantic sense or whatever; in every universe, we’ll meet each other.” ]
[ Kojo blinked, eyes widening as rain poured down on him and the person opposing him. Did he hear that correctly?
“… What? Don’t— You’re not fucking with me, right?”
The person who’d been opposing him sighed, a sorrowful look on the canvas that was their face. That person was Qiu Lin; Kojo’s seven year long crush, who’d just told Kojo they loved him.
“What— No! Why would I lie to you, especially now?! I love you, Kojo. So fucking much. I have loved you since your stupidly curious-but-cute self broke into my backyard.” Qiu panted, sounding out of breath. They hadn’t meant to confess, truly! It just… slipped out in the heat of the argument.
Kojo blinked once again, like a confused raven, or a puppy waiting patiently for a snack. A second later Kojo was right in front of Qiu, his hands cradling their face as the process of realisation was evident in the former’s eyes. They both just stared at one another, panting from the previous argument, slowly steadying their breathing rhythms.
“You love me— have loved me. For seven whole years, to be exact. And you pushed me away because you couldn’t understand yourself, but more so your feelings for me?”
A loud noise of laughter left Kojo’s lips, eyes crinkling with joy and those sharp canines showing. It was a genuine laugh; something he hadn’t done in years.
“You’re a fool — an idiot and an imbecile. Do you know how long I’ve waited for you to utter these words; that you love me? Do you know how many daydreams I’ve had about you and me, loving one another? Gods above, you’re—“
Kojo’s ranting was silenced by the soft pressure of someone else’s lips on his — Qiu’s lips on his. He returned the gesture with ease, letting his crush’s hands snake around his waist.
“Gods, this is even better than in my dreams.”
A pleasant sigh from Kojo, and a soft laugh from Qiu.
“You’ve dreamt about this?”
“Don’t tell me you haven’t! …You have, no?”]
(oh yeah, gave tamarack a bday since she doesn’t have one canonically im p sure. It’s April 21st, cause Tamarack reminds me of spring for whatever reason. My bday hc for Qiu is July 6th, actually, despite their name being Autumn lmao)
YOOODBJSJXB QIU AND KOJO’S SCENE GAVE ME BUTTERFLIES THAT WAS SO SWEET 😭😭😭
Also can we just admit how underrated platonic soulmates are?? I love how Kojo found his soulmate in Tamarack its just so HRHRHFHDHD PLATONIC ADORATION IS LOVELY !! THANK U SO MUCH FOR THIS ASANTE
Dang his voice dropped fast
I’ve been struggling to find a voice claim for my ocs, but so far I have Babette from beauty and the beast for Maeve in step 3!
Step 1 Haruki is strawberry crepe cookie from cookie run, step 2 Haruki is hunter form owl house! I’ll finish writing this in the morning bc it’s 3 am but I wanted to write this down before I forget-
omg pls sleep first notny dont be sleep deprived 😭😭
I LOVEEE both the voices that you chose for your characters!!
Yayyy I’ve slept and ready to yap >:) I may or may not be running on minimal sleep but still- I’m not sure wym by excerpt but I’m using context clues so I made short stories mb 💀 - basically the bold is the lines the va has said I have no idea what to do with 1 + 2 Maeve bc she has a French accent and I have a very specific idea of what she sounds like but I can’t find a French voice actor that does like soft or more gentle voice and I’m actually crashing out about it 😭
Step 1 Maeve: ???
Step 2 Maeve: ???
Step 3 + 4 Maeve: Plumette/Fifi from Beauty and the Beast Disney Movie Cartoon
Maeve looks around her new penthouse, large space, white walls all around and a wall made completely made of reinforced glass. It’s all she ever wanted…right…?
She rubbed her neck as she watched the movers move her stuff. She liked her old apartment it was small and cozy. Everything here was to…new, nothing feels like home to her, but it’s unlike she has a choice. Her manager said she needed to move for her safety from fans, yeah…
She shook her head, fidgeting awkwardly, she’d not sure what’s supposed to do exactly. Everyone around her had a place, a job that needed to be done. she was just…there. Maeve picks up their bag of personal belongings and headed towards the back, a feeling of unease settled in her stomach, this was her dream, she was going to be a singer, safety is first…always…
She pulled out things, her blanket since they had since she was a baby, their scrap book, a candle, and a two lighters.
She held the blanket up to her nose, calming her nerves slightly, she’s still near home, near Mama and Qiu and Tammy, but for how much longer?
She shook her head, d pulling such thoughts. And grabbed the lighters. She just needed to clear her head with her favorite scent, it always took her back to home. It was her moms favorite scent, vanilla and honey, and smelled like a dessert. She grabbed the red lighter and shook her head, chuckling to herself, “Oh no no no no no, I’ve been burned by you before,”
She grabbed the blue lighter and let he candle, sighing softly. She’d be alright. She had to be, she had to be…
Step 1 Haruki: Strawberry crepe cookie
This guy was really getting on his last nerve.
He tried, actually TRIED this time to listen to his ‘directions’. Following instead of taking the lead. He knew it wasn’t going to end well. Because who’s a better leader than him in all of Golden Grove?! Supposedly his new ‘friend’. According to Qiu he needed to, ‘spread his wings, make some new friends’ try not to be so judgy. More like new ENEMY.
Haruki is sweaty, tired, bored and REALLY fighting the urge to strangle this dude, Jim? Jupiter? Jackson? Whatever it was it was irrelevant just like his need to be in the middle of a FOREST searching for some DUMB MYSTERY PLACE-
“We’re almost there,” John said, a proud puff in his figure. But haruki could tell that he was lying. Because John was not a good liar.
“Yeah….suuuuuure,” Haruki rolled his eyes, stepping over a sharp stick, that he wasn’t planning to use at all if this was all for nothing-
Jillian groaned, “Just trust me okay? I’ve got this feeling in my gut-“
Haruki snapped back, “And I’ve got a feeling of hunger in my gut, but you don’t see me leading you on a wild goose chase to a restaurant?!” He stomped, on an rock, it hurt, but he didn’t let it show.
“If we don’t leave soon I’m going BACK home to CIVILIZATION because I am NOT built for the outdoors! I could get RABIES? RABIES, MY PRETTY FACE MARRED MY RABIES?!”
Justin groaned, “Do you even know what rabies is?” Looking left, right, left again, then continuing forward.
Haruki spluttered, his ears tipped pink, “Uh, yeah, duh?! Psh, of course I do!” He hoped that his hair covered his ears enough, he knew his own tell, unlike like Justina over there,
Jasmine deadpanned, “You’re lying,” crossing his arms, causing the jacket to wrinkle
“Hey! Are you calling me a liar??? Rude! I don’t have to listen to this nonsense, I’m outta here, have fun getting lost!”
Haruki marched away, flicking his hair behind him, “Later Joli. We aren’t gonna work out.
“MY NAME IS BRYDEN-
Step 2 Haruki: Hunter from Owl House
Haruki crouched low, watching little bug win the forest. Was it his cup of tea? Absolutely not, he’d rather be inside playing video games. Instead he was out here, in the forest. But he was determined to heal his friendship with Tamarack, no matter how…unpleasant it what.
He nodded, trying to follow along with what Tamarack was saying about some frog. It’s kinda cute, in an ugly sorta way. Something that you’d hate so much to the point you love them, reverse psychology or whatever the hell it’s called.
He scratched his neck, cocking his head to the side, the frog, looked like a gremlin and a bumpy stick had a baby, if that made any sense.
Haruki fiddled with his earring, coming back to the conversation, nodding along as he asked Tammy about their eating habits, desperate trying to keep down his lunch as the frog slapped its eyeball with his tongue.
Haruki spared a glance at Tamarack with a soft smile, he’d been well…a shitty person to be honest, he admits that. But he’d been able to win back Qiu’s favor, mostly they share bromance, but that doesn’t mean he couldn’t rekindle his bromance with Tammy, bromance exceeded all genders.
He yawned, nose scrunching as the frog hopped closer. Fighting the urge to punt it across the yard, for Tammy’s sake.
Then out of nowhere Tammy held up the frog and showed it to him, he jumped back, startled. The stench from that thing is so putrid, absolutely horrendous his mouth slipped before he could catch himself, “EUGH that think smells awfull why are you touching it with your hands?!”
Step 3 and 4 Haruki (Beta Testing): Ryuji Sakmoto from Persona 5
Haruki was a good friend. The best best friend he’d say. He cleared the day to help Qiu get ready for the ‘not date’ with Maeve. The person they’ve been crushing on longer since he’s known the dude.
Qiu is awesome don’t get him wrong. He’s nice, funny, popular, the problem they are absolutely clueless when it comes to love, insert Haruki, the aroace Cupid nobody knew they needed.
Haruki had already given them a premise of what to do, ‘Compliment, pay for whatever, NEVER tell them what they should get, politely suggest’ the basics for their ‘not date’.
It’s a blessing that that Maeve is a sweetheart who has a blatantly obvious crush on Qiu that she tried deny, or Qiu would not have a chance.
Now it was just time to wait for Qiu to show up, he said he borrowed his clothes, and as much as he loved Mr. Lin, he had no sense of style, at all.
His mom was out at work, so they had he entire house to themselves, minus Lola, the deranged chihuahua he had in the cage, didn’t need the ankle biter hurting Qiu before the meet up with Maeve
The door bell rang.
Finally damn, for someone who’s lives in the neighborhood over it took Qiu 30 minutes to arrive after said time chosen.
Haruki hopped up from the bed, checking his appearance in the mirror, skincare has been keeping his skin clear and glossy, hair is amazing per usual, and his clothes, even if no one really was seeing him, were top notch.
He went to the front door, and swung it open, blinked once, twice, and wheezed out in laughter. Qiu looked back, trying to be unamused but a smirk played on his lips.
“Dude what’s with the belt, you looks like you got kicked out of as Magic act,”
Sorry for the long response (can u tell I like writing stories??) 😭 🙏 I’m prob gonna change step 3 and 4 Haruki because I’m not in love in love but I can’t find anything else yet but who knows also I did not proof read do mb for the mistakes 😔
THEIR STORIES ARE SO GOOD NOTNY OMFDGDSI id be blessed if by some chance you or in the future this would become animatic, Id love to see this in animation form euueueu
I’ve been practicing my drawing style!! (Soon to debut with Maeve and Damien duet) once I really get good I’ll def try to make them in animatics hehehehe >:)
omggg your mc also has sal fischer as a voice claim!? :O
Gavin has these voice claims
step 1: Ronno from Bambi
step 2: Gumball Watterson from The amazing world of gumball
step 3: Sal Fischer from Sally face
step 4: Diego from Ice age
Great minds think alike as they say 😼😼🙏
facts
erm… since people are getting told off for sharing MC trauma (which makes sense because, well, the demo is all cutesy and shit and if the comments were depressing asf it’s weird as hell and also might be triggering idk 🤷🏽♂️🤷🏽♂️🤷🏽♂️)
but me personally , i still wanna hear some of you guys’ MC’s backstories (not necessarily trauma related or anything, joyful, happy and healthy backstories r always welcome too) so maybe you guys should share ur discord or other socials in the replies (if that’s fine w GB Patch cuz technically that’s promoting in a way i think???) because then you guys could still share stuff abt it THERE while ppl HERE can share their reviews of the game as well as happy and character design drawings of their MCS ya know 🙏
my discord is @qiulins so js send me a msg w your itch dot io user and get to yapping i’d say 👍
İ JUST REPLAYED THE DEMO FOR 8117984931TH TİME AND GOT CRUSHED İNTO PİECES BY A HUGE LOVE FOR TAMARACK SHES THE DEFİNİTİON OF CUTİE PATOOTİE LİKE İTS A CHALLENGE TO GO THROUGH STEP 1 SCENES BEİNG UNABLE TO SQUİSH HER CHEEKS i love qiu too but i think we should take a moment as a society sometimes to appreciate this sweet little ginger lady
TAMARACK APPRECIATION 🙏🙏🙏 my beautiful ginger haired daughter deserves the world 🧡🧡
I wanna ask y'all , how to deal with boredom if you can't go to any new places or see any new stuff, i am literally getting fried internally here
If you played any video games as a kid, go back and replay them. That’s a good option. Second option is read a new book or reread one you liked. Drawing is also something I do to keep myself entertained.
usually i try to read or put something on. (e.g. something ENTIRELY random or a show i watched a long time ago) other things i do is just think. like, think about the last time i had a certain food, or what i’d do if i was a certain character or something 🙏
ik its been three hours already but i hope you get over your boredom Abnormal 🫶🏽
its been 9 hours but ermm i tend to just go outside and ride my bike for a couple minutes. Or just sleep or cook something new i wanted to try. It keeps my brain happy and not throw a temper tantrum !
Hello! This story is a bit too intense, and would be better shared on another social media platform, rather than this game page. We would ask you to please delete it. Thank you for understanding!
My OC Hawe a lot off trama and hi... Hehe welp i rilly Hawe her all telling it to evrbody staved if anybody want to know it i can send it ... Is a lot to take im and she Hawe a story with her skar on the neck she cover up with a bandig... 🤔 So ....
We would ask you to please not share anything upsetting on this page. Thank you!
Ok i will only Sare the happy one ig hehe
Who in the world is dedicating all their life to disliking everybody's comments like dang bro. this person has to either be getting paid, or is absolutely positively insane.
or just trying to fuck with us
At this point I’m not even upset anymore, in fact I’m almost impressed. Almost.
That's what i am saying!
I knew it as SOON as I saw that hair, those eyes, and that little mole on that boy's neck that it was Baxter. My boy, my sweet boy, right where I need you to be😭🙏. What a lovely surprise, I'm so happy.
would it be crazy if I said I liked the OLNF Baxter design more than the OLBA design 😣💔
I think they still look pretty similar. Just that art style matched OLBA the way it was supposed to. This Baxter was still based from our first Baxter- and here he's really a kid, probably younger than when he first appears in the DLCs of the other OL.
I love my boy no matter what form he appears in😭so sad when I remembered he probably wouldn't be part of later steps aside from 1 because he was older and I remember him mentioning how he fell out of touch with his friends in his youth in OLBA.
there is a step 2 sprite displayed for him on the our life wiki if I recall correctly! (fine shyt fr 👅) So I THINK he is still in step 2 but idk abt step 3 🤷🏽♂️
Good god, why Did no one tell me before that Pinterest had that amount of absolutely scrumptious art
I’ve known all along, Pinterest has basically become my life support 😭
(conversation between my oc and Liam :3)
"You got lucky"
"Y..Yeah I know.." (just listened to his ENTIRE tragic backstory) "glad I didnt end up like you.."
The oc's name is luki if you wanted to know 😔🙏 Liam is my least truamatized oc💔💔
Gotta ask , your Oc's quirk doesn't happen to be fire and ice does it 😅
NONONONONO STOPPP THE MEMORIESSSSSS 😭😭😭🙏🙏🙏
he used to..😔 now he's just a demi god without powers 😻😻😻
HELP THATS THE SAME FOR MY OCS 😭 🙏
One of my Most traumatized oc: ‘your telling me that my fathers dead, my mother hates me, I accidentally killed my younger sister, my older sister died, I killed my mother. I’ve been a mass murderer since 9, And now I’m forced to exist for eternity as I watch everyone else I know die as my backstory and all u basically got was a some bad company, anxiety and fame scare and romance problems?’
Maeve and haruki: ‘there’s more to it but ye srry’
but OMG Luki looks super cool Liam looks terrified
Ty!! Your oc sounds super cool :0
tyyy! She may or may not be first created as a miraculous oc and may have gone a lil overboard on the trauma 😭 how traumatized is luki?
Hes pretty truamatized😔🙏
He comes from a cult family that has a generational sacrifice where they sacrifice the youngest child to their god. Luki was meant to be sacrificed, but he escaped with 4 other children and his twin sister died instead of him, (this was when he was 5, instead of being born with demi god powers like his family he was born a genius) he lived in the forest for years until he was 12 when he created his own "mafia" organization to get revenge against his family. (Basic summary) he has even more truama than that that's just the basic details 😅
OMG THAT’s SO COOL if u make it a story id def read it. Nadine (the traumatized oc’s name) made basically a mafia too called the Blood Rose society!! But instead it’s to take down the monarchy and government structure since it’s corrupt, she’s a demigod who becomes a god!!! Rip traumatized Luki and Nadine 😔🙏
My man looks like a handsome version Harvey Dent. What did you do to this one?
He was born into the main cult of 5 branches of cults that worship a god😔💔💔 now he's a mafia boss trying to kill the cult AND god after his twin sister got sacrificed instead of him 😔
Oh yeah, now that's a backstory I can get behind, mainly for the mysterious god part
Oh you don't Want to see my OC body... Afyer what trama she went to she was fucking raped at 12!! 😰
I think I'm good 😅😰
Oof i-yeesh i don't even wanna know
Hey folks, this particular thread has gotten a bit far off topic from Our Life: Now & Forever related content. We'd ask you to please refrain from carrying it on further, at least on this page. Thank you!
Are the Demo presented here the new version or are they still in toddler phase?
I don’t know if you mean if with the ‘new version’ you mean if the characters are in their teens, but no! The demo is still mainly focused on the characters being ten-year-olds.
We still have a small preview of Step 2, but if you played the demo a long while ago, when the preview was that you went to the love interests/Qiu’s backyard (I think?) to pick them up and go to school, that has changed! You now have a preview of the start of the day before where you go over to both Tamarack and Qiu’s houses to check up on both. (Just a general check up on Qiu, and help Tamarack with a call with her mom.) In the beginning where you talk to your mom she says the both of you’ll go and get a phone after that, however that is not in the preview if I’m correct. (It’s been a bit since I’ve played as well, so take this with a grain of salt, please!)
I don’t know how long the feature has been around, but you can choose what type of hair your mom has as well! If I recall, you got a given hair type/style depending on which skin colour you chose for Opal, but if my memory serves me correctly you can pick for yourself now.
Again, PLEASE take this with a grain of salt since I have not played OLNF for a few weeks now, but I don’t think there have been any major updates. 😣
finally drew my favourite boy Gavin as a teen.
some information i could not fit into the drawing: in his first two years of high school he was a part of the football team before quitting to focus on his role as guitarist in the music club, though he did still sometimes join the team for practice just for fun.
also: he has both ADHD and Autism(which i added based on myself as i have both as well). he was undiagnosed up until his first year of high school where he started having some issues so he went and finally got diagnosed Autism and ADHD.
his favourite subjects are: science(only when they get to do cool experiment stuff), PE, Music, and programming, also occasionally nature|biology but only when it is about the sea and marine life.
fun fact!: sometimes he gets in detention for punching someone who bullies a friend of his, this used to affect his grades as a punishment, but they stopped affecting his grades once the school staff realised it did not discourage his behaviour.
also his nickname is sharky because he loves sharks and just like sharks he might seem unfriendly and have a spiky exterior but he is surprisingly playful and nice.
also he a tall boi cuz why not
Yay another autistic mc! Bacon is also autistic, which is based on myself asI also have autism as well as ADHD, so I know your pain.
yoo! yippeeeeeeee :D
Here's my small portrait of tamarack 😘
Looks great! I should probably try drawing the love interests at some point as well.
Ty!
You never cease to amaze me Bucko
omg that is beautiful! she looks so cute!
aww she looks so huggable and cutie patootie
MY HONEYBUNSUGARPLUM IS SO CUTEEE CRIES

and lastly, Brutus i associate with Wake Up by Cheese People
For Kathryne, I’d associate her with the Lavender Town theme from Pokémon Red/Blue. She’s has a fascination with the occult and is considered to be kind of weird and creepy by step 2.
For Bacon, I’d associate them with the song Hello by OMFG. He’s just a fun, lovable goofball.
For Haruki it’s Father Time my Kendrick Lamar (thank u asante 😌) and for Maeve im not really sure I need to listen to more music 😭
I GOT PERMISSION TO YAP!!! YIPPEEE!!! 🥹🥹
(FIRST the relationships)
Okay SO in the OLNF universe my MC Runie ends up with Qiu and Tamarack (they WILL be in love with eachother and yes im delusional)
Qiu’s dedicated song for Runie - All of the Stars by Ed Sheeran
= Why? Because I imagine Qiu realising their feelings for Runie when they decide to go stargazing together and he looks at Runie, looking absolutely beautiful under the starlit sky.
[“How pretty..” Runie murmurs, an unabashedly open smile on his face, his eyes focused on the stars.
Qiu looks at him, and they feel their heart stutter at the sight of that gentle smile.
…Oh.
“Yeah.. it is.” Qiu says softly.
The moonlit sky casts a light on the two boys, its stars twinkling in its dark void. It was beautiful to anyone that would look up and take the time to admire it.
But Qiu’s eyes only admired the boy beside him, who’s smile reminded him of a sunflower field.]
Tamarack’s dedicated song for Runie - Macaroni Moon by The Rare Occasions
= Warum? Because i think its be so freaking cute if Tamarack realised she liked Runie and just goes ‘Huh, its not really any different.. I just love him even more! :D’ and its literally the fluffiest romance you’ve ever seen its so clear shes smitten TT
[ Runie runs around, jumping on mud puddles as Tamarack takes the lead in front of him. His giggles make her let out a cute laugh as well.
“C’mon Runie! I bet we can spot some frogs here too!” She exclaimed excitedly, bouncing on her heels as she waited for him.
“Wait for me! I wanna see the frogs too!” Runie pants, he held on to Tamarack’s arm when he finally reached her. She leaned her head against his as she searched around for for the frogs, “Just hold onto me so you can keep up.” She hummed.
Runie huffed, but doesn't shy away from her. He leans into her as well, which makes Tamarack blush a little. Her eyes softened when she snuck a glance at Runie who was curiously looking around the path.
She smiled, she couldn’t hide her happiness even if she tried.
‘Liking you is so easy, Runie.’ ]
Runie’s dedicated song for Qiu - Annie’s Song by John Denver
= He heard this song and IMMEDIATELY went to his mom for help to learn how to sing it so he can have something that reminds him of Qiu. When Qiu has trouble sleeping Runie sings this song for him to help him sleep. Its a confession and a lullaby all in one euueueue
Runie’s dedicated song for Tamarack - It Might Be You by Stephen Bishop
= This song played while Tamarack was busy with her projects and Runie was helping her with them. As soon as that song played he was literally just admiring Tamarack with this lovestruck expression like a loser.
ARGHHHH Runie is a SUCKER for old love songs and id imagine he got it from his mother because they dance to it everytime when he was still a little kid 🥹
(Ill probably make one for the dynamic between Runie and his friends but skdnsj im worried this is too long so I’ll stick with theme songs)
Runie’s Theme - Kiss Me (Instrumental) - Sixpence None The Richer
Damian’s Theme - Fruits Basket Opening 2001
Sonia’s Theme - Kyu-kurarin by Iyowa
Qinru’s Theme - Mia & Sebastian’s Theme
THATS ALL 🙏

LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOO WE EATING GOOD WITH THIS 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I associate Liam with "Oh No!" By marina
And I don't have a song for Odessa yet T^T
YIPPEE YAP TIME !!!
okay so for my main mc kojo, in step one and halfway in between step 1 and 2 (so from 10 -13-ish), i would associate him with Scrawny by Wallows, cuz yeah. the lyrics kinda remind me of him. then during step 2 and in between that step and step 3 (14 - 16), i'd either say cats in the cold by mage tears, Open My Door by Alice Phoebe Lou, No Surprises as well as Jigsaw Falling Into Place by Radiohead, Welcome to the Black Parade by MCR or Wiege by BL8M and 6FU; (i can't choose sigh.) in step 3 and 4, i would say luther by Kendrick Lamar and Bonita Applebum by A Tribe Called Quest cuz he's just chill guy in the later stages in his life and a sap for Qiu.
NOW ONTO RELATIONSHIPS 😋😋🤞🤞
Starting with Qiu and Kojo, in step one and in between (also 10 - 13-ish) in the beginning i'd associate them with Glue Song by Beabadoobee, though towards age 13, they'd be more like Y Si Fuera Ella (SHINee version) 💔💔 During step 2 and in between step 2 and 3, i think Saw You in a Dream by The Japanese House, White Ferrari by Frank Ocean, Don't get the deal by Beabadoobee, Paper Planes by tinyumbrella, or Heartbeat, Heartbreak by Shihoko Hirata would fit. (should just make a playlist atp...) In step 3 and 4, they'd be more like Baby I'm Yours by Arctic Monkeys and Those Eyes by New West.
For Tammy and Kojo, their step one and in between songs would be Apple Cider by Beabadoobee and ZOOM UP ! by Kahimi Karie. During step 2 and in between, they'd be more like 4EVER by Clairo, Yes, I'm Changing by Tame Impala, Polaroid Love by ENHYPEN, and APT. by Rose and Bruno Mars cuz Kojo Tamarack had crushes on one another, but they faded at the beginning of step 2 and they are now like, platonic soulmates and shit and they both deal with puberty and high school🫶🏽🫶🏽 in step 3 and 4 Glue Song by Beabadoobee. 💗
Gonna copy ramu rq and give them theme songs:
Kojo - Iwatodai Dorm -Reload- from Persona 3 Reload
Tamarack - Want To Be Close -Reload- from Person 3 Reload
Qiu - Beneath the Mask from Persona 5/Persona 5 Royal
For Ian i'd say it's The Last Stand from Sabaton!
Hello OLNF my old friend. I've come to talk to you again.
Because a vision softly creeping. Left its seed while I was sleeping.
Okay this went for far too long , Who's the Guy dedicating all his time to dislike everyone, like seriously dude don't cha have anything better to do?
Your way with words cracks me up 😭 Jokes aside this mystery guy just wont give up lol
My guy has to have made a vow or something if he's that dedicated to hatin
NO REAL 🙏🙏 like how unemployed do you have to be to take time out of your life to dislike a bunch of comments on itch dot io…. ITCH DOT IO BRO 😭🙏 just put the fries in the bag 💔🥀
If he had a Dolla for every time he disliked someone he would have enough to buy the whole dlc of Our life BA, Minecraft and Terraria and that gotta say something about the way he spends his time
Lmao I just realize that the triangle pointing upward and downward are like and dislike button
That's free Insight my friend, a little more and you can Make a deal with Absolute Morality
I don’t know, it’s annoying but there is a part of me that admires their dedication.
Lad is a Professional hater
EXACTLY BRO they literally scroll through everyone’s comments just to downvote them 😭 some next level commitment right there
Lad Is definitely an opp
My theory is that its some olnf hater :,( or mb a homophobe IDK????
I got a Theory, what if we got a Traitor Among us
long time since i posted art (four whole days) so have some in sixteen year old kojo and his volleyball design 💗 same year he gets life altering trauma guys 😋 (sorry my beautiful son😞)
i totally forgot i gave him freckles in his step 1 design ... so i added them back 🙏
I did NOT know this guy was a giant, tell me why I thought he was a short king?? 😭 also love the hair he looks saw AWW with it, my poor baby, please be gentle with the trauma 🙏
apparently a lot (one other) thought ko was short lmao 😭😭 but no he’s tall like his dad 💪💪 and yeah his hair is fire everybody say thank you vianca 🙏🙏
i was not gentle with the trauma 🤣🤣🤣🤣 my son has been hurt 🤣🤣🤣 it pained me to write it into his lore 🤣🤣🤣🤣
NAUR PLEase enough trauma!! (I say as a progressively write more trauma into my characters)
I know you mentioned in your post that his jersey was inspired by haikyuu. But before I read that I looked the art and thought “that looks like the Kurasuno jersey. XD
YEAHHH ‼️‼️ i was originally gonna make em look more like kenma and co.’s jerseys but blue instead of red (i forgot the school name mb) but then i was like… lowk kurasuno’s jerseys look fire 🤔🤔
Looks great regardless. But I agree with you that Kurasuno’s jersey looks better than Nekoma’s.
GOD?? DAMN?? Kojo is tall as hell omg 😭😭??? YO GIVE ME THEM GENES BRO SHARING IS CARING
HELPP IM GIGGLING EVERYONE (one other person) IS SO SHOCKED THAT KOJO IS TALL LMAO 😭😭😭 he got his tall genes from his dad so … idk man 🤷🏽♂️ you’d have to start a journey as a pirate looking for this thing called the ‘one piece’ if you want them 💔💔
6FOOT 5????
GOOD GOD , MY GUY IS GUARANTEED TO HIT HIS HEAD ON THE DOOR FRAME 🫡
he has indeed hit his head on many doorframes 😞😞💔💔
look i thought he was average sized NOT A GIANT!!!!!😨Can't you spare a few inches some of them need it *looks at maeve, runie kel and basically almost the entire fandom* his hairs awesome asf tho so-
(where did he get that mouth scar btw? if it's from that woman im boutta make her regret living /hj)(also the school name is riverview peak :])
THANK YOU FOR THE NAME POOKIE YOUR A LIFE SAVER 🙏🙏🙏 also no ,, not that woman thank god 🤞🤞 it was from his fight with qiu when he was like 12 - 13.
basically: argument (two words) -> pushed onto the ground -> punched to the side -> lip got stuck on small rock -> scar.
like qiu kinda punched him and then yeah… kojo didn’t really feel it tho, he has a high tolerance for pain 🤞 (or well, higher than average cuz it still hurt in the end 😭😭)
So you gotta tell me blud refused to Throw hands with Tammarck (chad behaviour) after she was arguing over where to go
But still threw hands with a Guy two times his size?
Yup Qiu has beef
kojo would never fight tammy that's his platonic soulmate right there 🤞🤞🗣️🗣️
oh no, their fight was during winter or something cuz i'd imagine kojo being one of the people qiu pushed away during the time between step 1 and 2. They have beef up untill, like ... about age 17?? Then the two have some argument-turned-love-confession in the rain and they kiss and at the beginning of step 3 they're in love 😞💗
kurhosihusofughcsoiugfsmofgiushmofhofiughsmofcg AHHHHHHHHHH YAY I KNEW THAT KID LOOKED FAMILIER YAYYYYYYYY BAXTER, O(∩_∩)O
