omg idk his name but his aesthetic is so losercore (in a good way) ,, like he looks like a teenage dirtbag that listens to radiohead and weezer and shit 😋😋 i love him already :D
if this is him in step 2, my oc (kojo) and him would probably be friends cause they’re both losers at that stage 🙁❤️ (kojo is a mildly happy loser ^_^)
hello again! I was procrastinating real life work to create moodboards for my MC both in OLBA and OLNF. I am just starting in term of drawing art, so I'm not really comfortable drawing my OC just yet, but I really want to their them here because I really am proud of my kids.
First, Finist Fencer – in OL1, he's Asian but never really questioned where exactly he’s from, and he prefers not to know. He’s the type of guy who teases a lot out of love. He doesn’t really know what he wants to do in life, but at least he knows who he wants to be with. He likes reading environmental archives, and if he’s old enough, you might find him at a bar, quietly enjoying a drink.
Second, and once again, Frank First (Frankfurt) – he’s half Thai, an insecure boy who loves music and history. He doesn’t talk much and often just responds with a thumbs-up. He’s the kind of kid who hyperfixates on songs, poems, theater, and Shakespeare. His love for music is broad—he listens to anything and everything.
this is a rough draft but yeah, I really love both of them. thanks again for the space to share my little guys!
thank you so much! and honestly your art is super cool, I am already inspired by all the artists here. You guys give me so much passion for my crafts 🎀
I just noticed youre also a Taylor swift fan.. high fives you-
PER MC PROTOCOL EVERY MC DESERVES A HEADPAT!! which meaaansss :DD Pats pat pats your MC's lovingly because they're both so precious?? id love to be friends with them?? :'D
hello fellow Taylor fan haha am I too obvious? btw THANK U FOR THE HEADPATS I will pat your MCs back because they are all sooo cute im gonna cry 😭😭😭 and my MCs need friends of course you are always welcome, but frank is a bit harder door to crack, while finist will start a debate with you at 4AM (this is a fair warning for your healthy sleep schedule <3)
im glad to send Runie to befriend the two!! they seem like cute dorks and he'll gladly take on whatever those two have in store (Whether it be debates in the crack of dawn or introverts :DD)
speaking of Step 3 (and partially step 2.).. i was thinking about making non-MC characters (like not romantically involved with Qiu or Tamarack) and making them best friends with Runie through highschool and college years. They were childhood friends but split apart after they moved to different towns. Now theyre back!! Stickier (see: clingier) than ever!! (Ill make a solo one for Runie soon eueueu)

this is SUCH a good idea omg I’m gonna do this also 😭 WHY R ALL UR CHARACTERS SUCH CUTIES (I’m giving them all extra pats) ps. ur giving me the urge to try to find character voices :0
Behold! I'm almost finishing the Art Collab base, I'm almost finishing the base of the characters on the table.
But I will also send the version without the doll base so that you feel free to make your MC's in the pose you want and in any of the steps you want (Originally this base is for MC's in Step 3)
Something unexpected happened and I think I'll only be able to finish the base tomorrow.
step 3 minqiu or wtv ... kojo goes by minjun as an artist bcs privacy . IGNORE THE USER BTW i have yet to flesh out step 3 kojo's story and as the text says they might be doomed gays AND cuz im currently writing a fanfic abt step 2 minqiu ... which i MIGHT post on ao3 chat 🙏🙏🙏
THANK YOU !!! muscular step 3 kojo my beloved . doomed by the narrative 💔💔 lowk one of my favourite tropes besides best friends to lovers and college/university au tho 😖😖
Hey everyone! I'm Chanelboom, and I created this second account to have more open and casual conversations, while my original account is focused solely on feedback. After being inspired by Ramu's idea of drawing others' MCs, I thought it would be a great way to practice and expand my techniques. Until now, I've mostly focused on drawing my own characters, so I'm excited to step out of my comfort zone and work on yours!
I’d love to kindly ask you all if I could draw your MCs, as it would bring me great joy. So please claim your spot! For this drawing, I’ll only be doing your Step 2 characters. You can also choose your desired expression if you’d like!
Step 2 Maeve design (i changed her old one cuz i didn't like it), still totally fleshing out her charachter tho! If u choose to draw her can she be number 7? she's shy so her facial expression is probably blushing with a nervous pout ;3
Absolutely! There are only 2 spots remaining, so it's down to either 6 or 4. Either way, your spot will be secured! <3
EDIT: After careful consideration, I've decided that she’s best suited for spot number 6! I took the expression into account and feel that it aligns perfectly with this position.
I've never commented before but this looks cute so here is one of my most recent (and 2nd favourite) OLNF mc. El would look slightly uncomfortable but happy being included if that makes sense.
Claimed! But It looks like there’s just one spot left, and it’s number 4. I hope that works for you! either way I’m excited to work on your MC <3
EDIT: I also realized I forgot to mention that your spot has a full view, so if it’s not too much trouble, could you show me what their clothes would look like?
I've been thinking... What if I make a drawing like those reference ones we made to draw our MC's together a few times?
I'll try, update you guys on this soon.
Update #1
I started by sketching out the scene, It's a cafeteria table like The Diner Table. I think I can fit 6-7 (maximum) characters on the table.
Update #2
I finished the table setting in the diner, It's simpler but does the job well. I'll start making the positions of the character bases (you can still just use the scenery and draw your character in the position you want)
Thank youu!!! Sorry, I've been preeeettyyyy busy with school and stuff, but I swear, I will try to engage in this community more now, let's just hope!! :DD
i think the major reasoning is that we all have a very prominent love for the same thing so we always have things in common to talk about, everyone being somewhat around the same age group also helps with that
I don't like drawing backgrounds. I'm bad at drawing bodies. I didn't have the will to draw another person. But he's a ginger/redhead so it's okay. (I'm jking)
I'm not gonna lie, everyone here seems so connected and close and I feel kinda out of the loop ( ･ั﹏･ั). I guess I'm just crazy bad at interacting with ppl irl and online. Everyone here is also so talented. ฅ^•ﻌ•^ฅ
I think you will feel somewhat connected by joining conversations that interest you. I'm not sure about the "everyone seems so close" part since I don't seem that close to people, I just... join any conversation I know how to be a part of, if you know what I'm trying to say.
Don't be nervous, I don't think anyone will let someone feel left out here, at least not me :)
u’ve been initiated in this community ever since you sent your first message!!
So welcome!!＼(￣▽￣)／
also ur oc is very cool and ur art is very nice too (im bad at drawing bodies too that’s why when I don’t use an art template I just draw the upper body) :3
i felt that way at first too :) everything gets better here this is one of the most open communities ive ever been apart of :) and trust me buddy I AINT GONNA LET YOU FEEL OUT IM GONNA MAKE YOU FEEL THE MOST INCLUDED HEHHEHEH
step 2 or 3 mcs… ‼️‼️ i’d love to see everybody’s step 3 mcs tho . cuz theyre like 18 then, so you have more creative freedom (tattoos, piercings, and clothing too tbh) 🙏🙏
This game very cute and I hope play this game again when it's will be full (≡^∇^≡) (sorry if I write something wrong because I'm not speak English in real life)
Oh my Gosh!!!(≧▽≦) It's SUPER DUPER CUTE!!! YOU MADE EVERYONE SUCH A CUTIES!!!! now I Want that plushies!! I'm gonna squeeze everyone hehehe >3< (I save it and it's my wallpaper now Ramu 😝 you can't stop me)
I was wondering if I can draw some of y'all OL character since I having a bit of an art block and can't think of anything to draw at the moment.
I make sure to send them here when I'm done drawing them, I want to pick three to draw so I don't have to worry about stressing myself out trying to draw all the characters that get sent .
I am starting to draw myself from playing OL! if you'd like, you are welcome to use my MC. :)) P.S. that outfit was a weird choice in a surface but he wanted to show off his heritage coming to first day of the town. you can change it to anything for your creativity, but he'd prefer a shirt and pants. thank you. <3
My self-loathing has been more active yet also has my urge to drawing (horribly.)
Teen with anger issues and horrible ways of coping. He wants to be a raccoon.
(w/o makeup)
(w/ makeup. Puts his eyeliner/eyeshadow on his nose sometimes to look like a raccoon. Like as said above, he sometimes wished he was a raccoon instead of a human. Humans are 'too complicated'.)
i fell in love with the ambience and tone and diversity of major characters, it feels really natural and not forced. what i love about N&F is the HUGE variety of dialogue options. i usually get frustrated by visual novels with barely any variety or flavour in dialogue options but the devs really ate with the dialogue. whoever is reading this, have a nice day!
Which flower reminds you of them at each step? For example, sunflowers remind me of step 1 Tama, daisies remind me of step 2 Qiu, and lavender reminds me of step 3 Qiu :D
okay so, step 1 tammy reminds me of a Coreopsis and a crocus vernus because of their meanings; always cheerful (both crocus vernus and coreopsis) /love at first sight (coreopsis). step 1 qiu reminds me of a crown’s imperial because of their colour scheme and their meaning; power and majesty/pride of birth. but also bird of paradise flowers because, y’know the drill, meanings. it represents liberty, magnificence, good perspective, joyfulness; faithfulness
step 2 tammy reminds me of dahlias because one, it’s a pretty flower, and once again the meaning !! it represents elegance and dignity but also abundance and instability. she also reminds me of a red daisy (beauty unknown to the possessor) ‘cause she seems kind of self conscious about her looks and just overall self 🙁🙁 step 2 qiu might remind me of a bog-rosemary which the meaning is ‘bound by fate; “will you help me?”’ considering they’re figuring themself out and all, but also a jacob’s ladder/greek valerian, because it is my favourite flower, and its meaning is ‘rupture’ which i think can allude to the action of qiu cutting off most of the people around them; a rupture in their relationships/circle.
for step 3 tams i think pink lilies would fit because pink lilies are pretty like her but they also stand for love, as well as femininity and adoration. Which fits tammy well, methinks. for step 3 qiu i think dandelions seem fit, one of the meanings is ‘overcoming hardships’ which personally is a perfect way to reference the difference in knowing their identity as of now and back in step 2.
UGHHHH SORRY FOR THIS LONG ASS YAP SESSION 💔💔 they are my babies and i love them so very much 🙁🙁💗💗 i could go on and on abt this bcs of the many flowers and their meanings but i’ll just stop here for the better😞😞
1 plus for you, I'm also a nerd obsessed with flowers meaning lol
In fact, I have thought of dandelions before, but that flower always brings me a big sense of sadness :( So I chose lavender
Lavender flowers represent purity, silence, devotion, serenity, grace, and calmness, which I think would suit Autumn well, also purple goes well with their vibe in step 3, heh.
For step 1, 2 Tama, I get your point:)
Crown imperial... Oh damn, I know what you're trying to say haha, our Qiu really is everyone's prince back then 🤭 But bird of paradise is just perfect for step 1 Qiu, don't you think?
Also omg!! Thanks for mentioning bog rosemary, I didn't know such a pretty flower existed, but now I do>< Y'know what? I'll steal your favorite flower and bring it to mine >:) The meaning's fitting, too!
Pink lilies are such pretty flowers, just like Tama 😼 She's so precious, we must protect her from every harm 😇
Seeing the comments gave me an idea to tell some things about my OL2 MC (Leonard).
(Step 1 Leonard)
(Step 2 Leonard - Hair down)
(Step 2 Leonard - Hair up)
A few things about Leonard:
I haven't thought of a good last name for him yet...
His appearance and name were inspired by another original character of mine.
He has russian heritage on his father's side (His father is russian).
He feels sad about not knowing his own father.
He has a huge crush on Tamarack.
He has several moles on his body.
His favorite drink is Root Beer.
Despite not really liking school, he is among the top 10 in the class.
In my Lore he was present for most, or all, of the OL1 Step 1 events before moving to Washington (still deciding).
He returns to Sunset Bird in Step 3 of OL1, just to visit the city.
Elizabeth was his closest friend in OL1 Step 1.
He is a good artist, preferring to paint in oil on canvas.
Baxter is his second closest friend in OL2 (Qiu is the first).
He cut his hair short and dyed it black at age 16.
He began studying russian at the age of 12 out of curiosity about his russian heritage.
He prefers skateboarding because he thinks it's cool.
At first he used bandages because he thought they were cool, later he used them for some injuries he got.
During the Wheels moment he fell during the race and injured his left hand, earning a scar.
Despite being hyperactive most of the time, he sometimes gets a little nervous around Tamarack.
He wears different earrings in step 2 because he ended up losing his left earring and so decided to put another one in its place.
In Step 2 of OL2 he tries to make Qiu and Tamarack become friends again because he doesn't want things to change in their trio.
He doesn't like change, he wants things to be the way they've always been. Adventuring in the woods with Tamarack, going out on the town with the boys' club. But at some point he will have to face it and learn that things change.
For my mc... yeah i dunno she hates bitterness but white chocolate is too sweet for her and for the other side well she like crunchiness + she doesnt appreciate mintyness from food + strawberry tastes weird in chocolate for her lol
clover got his nickname when he was around 7 when he found out that clovers (the plant) are also called trefoil, he was so proud of himself for learning that, he decided that will be his nickname. also fun fact when i was making Clover at first i wanted his nickname to be trifoilium (the scientific name for clovers) but i decided trefoil sounds better
I cannot wait for more, these games are so amazing, but must be hell to code. I loved Cove, I love Qui so far, and my best boy was here for a bit too(Baxter)
Sometimes Leonard asks Tamarack to pose for him to draw her because he finds her photogenic (It's not like he had a crush on her and wanted to draw her because he thought she was pretty-)

Hi :)
omg idk his name but his aesthetic is so losercore (in a good way) ,, like he looks like a teenage dirtbag that listens to radiohead and weezer and shit 😋😋 i love him already :D
He doesn't have a name yet sadly(• ▽ •;) but he is a loser, a happy loser🫶🏻
if this is him in step 2, my oc (kojo) and him would probably be friends cause they’re both losers at that stage 🙁❤️ (kojo is a mildly happy loser ^_^)
This is so cool :0
Thank you!! This was cool to make( ꈍᴗꈍ)

what a lovely little racoon guy, pat pat pat

this is a rough draft but yeah, I really love both of them. thanks again for the space to share my little guys!

speaking of Step 3 (and partially step 2.).. i was thinking about making non-MC characters (like not romantically involved with Qiu or Tamarack) and making them best friends with Runie through highschool and college years. They were childhood friends but split apart after they moved to different towns. Now theyre back!! Stickier (see: clingier) than ever!! (Ill make a solo one for Runie soon eueueu)

Something unexpected happened and I think I'll only be able to finish the base tomorrow.

While I work on the art collab, here's a kind of old drawing about Samantha (My OL1 MC)
I freaking love your art man TT ESPECIALLY THE BACKROUNDS?? IM TOO LAZY FOR THEM BUT U DREW THEM SO GOOD 😭😭
SHE'S BLONDE 😭????
Anywayssssssssss i love the art AND BACKGROUND IT LOOKS LIKE IT WAS FROM A MANGA 💕💕💕💕💕
Yes! And she has freckles on some parts of her body (more on the upper part like face, shoulders, etc.)
Besides her hair being in this rounder shape, idk as if they were seaweed..? I don't know how to explain it well
OMH THIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL 🙁🙁💗💗 i love her she’s such a cutie
i WISH i could draw landscapes and characters like this its so PRETTYYY-
Hey everyone! I'm Chanelboom, and I created this second account to have more open and casual conversations, while my original account is focused solely on feedback.

Much love! <33
THIS IS SO COOL!!! AAAAA thank you for this opportunity CB!! id love Runie to be number 2!! :DD and id love their expression to be a smug grin >:)
The spot’s all yours :)I’m so excited to draw your character! I love they’re color palette <3
Hi hi, just curious – what kind of jeans or pants are they wearing , and what color are they? <3
OH its just a normal grey color! sorry for the late reply my notifs don't seem to work TT
ooooh I’d like to join!!!!
I’d do number one with like hmmmmmmm a grin but like nervous… a nervous grin :)
Got it! The spot’s now claimed. Her hair is amazing! <3
ooh 😼 i’d love to join !!!
maybe kojo could be number five?? with a little smile methinks
All set, it’s claimed! They’re design is awesome! <3
Oo, I'd like to join! Number 3, and I'd like Florian's expression to be a shy smile :p
Claimed! He’s absolutely adorable, and I love his name too! <3
Step 2 Maeve design (i changed her old one cuz i didn't like it), still totally fleshing out her charachter tho! If u choose to draw her can she be number 7? she's shy so her facial expression is probably blushing with a nervous pout ;3
Of course, the spot is now taken! She’s so cute, I love her eyes <3
thank uuuu <3 i'm not sure if i've said it before but chanel is very pretty ;)
So very kind of you! Thank you very much<33
Ohhhh is there any spots left? If so could you put in mine?? <3
An exasperated expression would fit her
Absolutely! There are only 2 spots remaining, so it's down to either 6 or 4. Either way, your spot will be secured! <3
EDIT: After careful consideration, I've decided that she’s best suited for spot number 6! I took the expression into account and feel that it aligns perfectly with this position.
That's great to hear! <3
I've never commented before but this looks cute so here is one of my most recent (and 2nd favourite) OLNF mc. El would look slightly uncomfortable but happy being included if that makes sense.
Claimed! But It looks like there’s just one spot left, and it’s number 4. I hope that works for you! either way I’m excited to work on your MC <3
EDIT: I also realized I forgot to mention that your spot has a full view, so if it’s not too much trouble, could you show me what their clothes would look like?
They're wearing an oversized (light brown) turtle neck sweater and ripped (dark blue) jeans with laced (black) ankle boots
However if you want me to draw Ellender it could take a few days but I'll do it.
A simple sketch would be incredibly helpful, but I think I can still visualize it from the description. :)
Sorry it took so long, I haven't drawn in over three years ^^;;
Does anybody know if Darren/Ren will have any DLC's or will be romanceable? I just really want to know. 😔
No, sadly!
😞
Since the game is still a demo. Once the full game releases, will our progress reset?
Don't think so, you'll just need to update your game
but since step one is just "walks and wheels ", this is pretty much it for now. Since step two wont be saved anyway, no?
It can be saved!
wont step 2 be different from the demo compared to the final game?
I've been thinking... What if I make a drawing like those reference ones we made to draw our MC's together a few times?
I'll try, update you guys on this soon.
Update #1
I started by sketching out the scene, It's a cafeteria table like The Diner Table. I think I can fit 6-7 (maximum) characters on the table.
Update #2
I finished the table setting in the diner, It's simpler but does the job well. I'll start making the positions of the character bases (you can still just use the scenery and draw your character in the position you want)
(More updates above in the comments)
oooh the diner table scene?? if we do do this I'd like to join!
if we do this id 100% join this looks so pretty
YOO THATS FIRE 😼😼
like ny i’d love to join as well !! i’m still fleshing out kojo’s step 3 design a little (art block got my ass 💔💔) but yeah 🙏
That sounds like an awesome idea! I’d be thrilled to join if it happens.
Ooooh I would join (during the weekend ofc)
id love to join this looks absolutely lovely!!! >:DDD
Oof i finally decided to redraw Florian and add his step 2 version :] He likes pokemon and flowers x)
your art is so good..i love your mc :O
ur art and florian look so soft and pretty like flowers :3
your MC is the human incarnate of the instrumental of kiss me by sixpence omgfdjhgjfdvd
gently pat pats your MC
omg he’s gorgeous i love him 🙁💗
your art style tastes like cinnamon rolls (ive never had them but they look tasty, like ur art)
YOUR ART IS SO BEAUTIFUL WHAAAA
why is no one talking about the absolute JAWLINE on step 2 Florian???
Your artstyle looks tastyyyyy
Love this demo so much and im looking forward for more! thank you
At some point in Step 2.
The game is very cute I'm hoping for the full release cheers mate, a good comfort game
hey guys! it's been so long since I even commented here lol. But uh, for now, I'm just gonn ask, how have ya'll been?? ^^
WHAT??? WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN??? IT'S BEEN 3 MONTHS??? WELCOME BACK!!!!
Thank youu!!! Sorry, I've been preeeettyyyy busy with school and stuff, but I swear, I will try to engage in this community more now, let's just hope!! :DD
yaaaay, welcome back to the inescapable comments!!
OMG YOU LIVEEEE, WELCOME BACKKK (ive been pretty ok, been aceing my tests so far so school's also been great, how have you been?)
WELCOME BACKKK OMG !!! also ive been pretty gay recently (good and homo) how 'bout you?
YOOOO WB IVE BEEN PRETTY DANG GOOD
I just realised how much of a Savage Miss Opal is in The Mean Route
Y’know today I thought how I have more chemistry with y’all than some of my classmates and that’s a little welllll depresso
Don't worry, that's not the weirdest. I have more chemistry with you guys than my family and classmates combined.
(No seriously, I think that's how modern people cop with issues those days)
eh, i guesso :)
We're all goofy whimsical people here
i think the major reasoning is that we all have a very prominent love for the same thing so we always have things in common to talk about, everyone being somewhat around the same age group also helps with that
I don't like drawing backgrounds. I'm bad at drawing bodies. I didn't have the will to draw another person. But he's a ginger/redhead so it's okay. (I'm jking)
I'm not gonna lie, everyone here seems so connected and close and I feel kinda out of the loop ( ･ั﹏･ั). I guess I'm just crazy bad at interacting with ppl irl and online. Everyone here is also so talented. ฅ^•ﻌ•^ฅ
he looks so silly 😔
I think you will feel somewhat connected by joining conversations that interest you. I'm not sure about the "everyone seems so close" part since I don't seem that close to people, I just... join any conversation I know how to be a part of, if you know what I'm trying to say.
Don't be nervous, I don't think anyone will let someone feel left out here, at least not me :)

We should do a collab art with our MC's on some step.
that’s be fun! What step?
Idk, I don't think it's step 1 since I saw that it's the most drawn step here... Maybe step 2? 3?
its been a while since we all did a MC collab art :3! im excited!!
i wanna join!! :DD
yah that be so cool 😼😼
step 2 or 3 mcs… ‼️‼️ i’d love to see everybody’s step 3 mcs tho . cuz theyre like 18 then, so you have more creative freedom (tattoos, piercings, and clothing too tbh) 🙏🙏
YOOO TRUE it'd be so fun to collaborate (and possibly make an animatic of,, hope a talented artist could do that because that's not for the weak TT)
I liked the idea of the Art collab being in step 3
yesss let's do step 3!
WIP of my unnamed OC (he's a revamp of my old mc and I'm renaming him. Though I'm having trouble(╯°□°）╯︵ ┻━┻). I need male names(ꏿ﹏ꏿ;)
He's horrible at coping guys, don't smoke. It's not cool. Also used a new brush, like it a bit better. Okay, have a good day/night :3
Too late, they're already smoking!
ooo :o i love the way you draw eyes!!
School starts tomorrow. I am crying.
i wish you the best in school :(

Any one here jojo Fans?
I was wondering if I can draw some of y'all OL character since I having a bit of an art block and can't think of anything to draw at the moment.
I make sure to send them here when I'm done drawing them, I want to pick three to draw so I don't have to worry about stressing myself out trying to draw all the characters that get sent .
Thank you for reading this😊😊
:) how about mine? Thanks
Artblock is the worst for everyone:D
This is how much I got done, it's not done, but I hope you like it so far 😄
Aww, your art looks juicy, like jelly fruit. Look at those adorable eyes heheh 🤗
hope you get out of your artblock!! Ive had it too but my friend suggested that drawing on paper helps TwT
and heres Runie!!
im so used to looking at runie through your art that i didnt recognize him lol
Hes become my muse unfortunately 😔😔
Hi hi !! I hope you get over your artblock, and heres my mc if you want to draw her!
I am starting to draw myself from playing OL! if you'd like, you are welcome to use my MC. :)) P.S. that outfit was a weird choice in a surface but he wanted to show off his heritage coming to first day of the town. you can change it to anything for your creativity, but he'd prefer a shirt and pants. thank you. <3
My self-loathing has been more active yet also has my urge to drawing (horribly.)
Teen with anger issues and horrible ways of coping. He wants to be a raccoon.
(w/o makeup)
(w/ makeup. Puts his eyeliner/eyeshadow on his nose sometimes to look like a raccoon. Like as said above, he sometimes wished he was a raccoon instead of a human. Humans are 'too complicated'.)
(w/ hat)
Still working on it༎ຶ‿༎ຶ
:O your art style is amazing!!

i fell in love with the ambience and tone and diversity of major characters, it feels really natural and not forced. what i love about N&F is the HUGE variety of dialogue options. i usually get frustrated by visual novels with barely any variety or flavour in dialogue options but the devs really ate with the dialogue. whoever is reading this, have a nice day!
Have a nice day:)
Ian prefers dark chocolate because she thinks it make her look cooler.
(Don't tell anyone about the mint part though that's a secret!)
Which flower reminds you of them at each step? For example, sunflowers remind me of step 1 Tama, daisies remind me of step 2 Qiu, and lavender reminds me of step 3 Qiu :D
I want to make a phone wallpaper that reminds me of them, so...
for step one Tammy it’s pink hyacinths step one Qiu reminds me of sunflowers! Step 2 Tammy reminds me of baby’s breath!
Wow... baby's breath really suits her:)
I also think Qiu would be a sunflower, but wouldn't it be weird if they both reminded me of that flower?
nah, they both embody sunflowers and different ways (plus they’re both pretty like sunflowers :D)
D1 YAPPER ASANTE IS BACK EVERYBODY‼️‼️
okay so, step 1 tammy reminds me of a Coreopsis and a crocus vernus because of their meanings; always cheerful (both crocus vernus and coreopsis) /love at first sight (coreopsis). step 1 qiu reminds me of a crown’s imperial because of their colour scheme and their meaning; power and majesty/pride of birth. but also bird of paradise flowers because, y’know the drill, meanings. it represents liberty, magnificence, good perspective, joyfulness; faithfulness
step 2 tammy reminds me of dahlias because one, it’s a pretty flower, and once again the meaning !! it represents elegance and dignity but also abundance and instability. she also reminds me of a red daisy (beauty unknown to the possessor) ‘cause she seems kind of self conscious about her looks and just overall self 🙁🙁 step 2 qiu might remind me of a bog-rosemary which the meaning is ‘bound by fate; “will you help me?”’ considering they’re figuring themself out and all, but also a jacob’s ladder/greek valerian, because it is my favourite flower, and its meaning is ‘rupture’ which i think can allude to the action of qiu cutting off most of the people around them; a rupture in their relationships/circle.
for step 3 tams i think pink lilies would fit because pink lilies are pretty like her but they also stand for love, as well as femininity and adoration. Which fits tammy well, methinks. for step 3 qiu i think dandelions seem fit, one of the meanings is ‘overcoming hardships’ which personally is a perfect way to reference the difference in knowing their identity as of now and back in step 2.
UGHHHH SORRY FOR THIS LONG ASS YAP SESSION 💔💔 they are my babies and i love them so very much 🙁🙁💗💗 i could go on and on abt this bcs of the many flowers and their meanings but i’ll just stop here for the better😞😞
1 plus for you, I'm also a nerd obsessed with flowers meaning lol
In fact, I have thought of dandelions before, but that flower always brings me a big sense of sadness :( So I chose lavender
Lavender flowers represent purity, silence, devotion, serenity, grace, and calmness, which I think would suit Autumn well, also purple goes well with their vibe in step 3, heh.
For step 1, 2 Tama, I get your point:)
Crown imperial... Oh damn, I know what you're trying to say haha, our Qiu really is everyone's prince back then 🤭 But bird of paradise is just perfect for step 1 Qiu, don't you think?
Also omg!! Thanks for mentioning bog rosemary, I didn't know such a pretty flower existed, but now I do>< Y'know what? I'll steal your favorite flower and bring it to mine >:) The meaning's fitting, too!
Pink lilies are such pretty flowers, just like Tama 😼 She's so precious, we must protect her from every harm 😇
At this point we both just overyapping😔
We Got A Basil within us !
THAT'S SOO COOL!!!
I love how the comments here are so cuteeee (a kiss from Brazil kakakak)
Seeing the comments gave me an idea to tell some things about my OL2 MC (Leonard).
(Step 1 Leonard)
(Step 2 Leonard - Hair down)
(Step 2 Leonard - Hair up)
A few things about Leonard:
I haven't thought of a good last name for him yet...
His appearance and name were inspired by another original character of mine.
He has russian heritage on his father's side (His father is russian).
He feels sad about not knowing his own father.
He has a huge crush on Tamarack.
He has several moles on his body.
His favorite drink is Root Beer.
Despite not really liking school, he is among the top 10 in the class.
In my Lore he was present for most, or all, of the OL1 Step 1 events before moving to Washington (still deciding).
He returns to Sunset Bird in Step 3 of OL1, just to visit the city.
Elizabeth was his closest friend in OL1 Step 1.
He is a good artist, preferring to paint in oil on canvas.
Baxter is his second closest friend in OL2 (Qiu is the first).
He cut his hair short and dyed it black at age 16.
He began studying russian at the age of 12 out of curiosity about his russian heritage.
He prefers skateboarding because he thinks it's cool.
At first he used bandages because he thought they were cool, later he used them for some injuries he got.
During the Wheels moment he fell during the race and injured his left hand, earning a scar.
Despite being hyperactive most of the time, he sometimes gets a little nervous around Tamarack.
He wears different earrings in step 2 because he ended up losing his left earring and so decided to put another one in its place.
In Step 2 of OL2 he tries to make Qiu and Tamarack become friends again because he doesn't want things to change in their trio.
He doesn't like change, he wants things to be the way they've always been. Adventuring in the woods with Tamarack, going out on the town with the boys' club. But at some point he will have to face it and learn that things change.
literally did this the moment i saw it 🙏
kojo actually prefers plain old milk chocolate, but if he had to pick he’d go with mint bcs he doesnt like strawberries lol
For my mc... yeah i dunno she hates bitterness but white chocolate is too sweet for her and for the other side well she like crunchiness + she doesnt appreciate mintyness from food + strawberry tastes weird in chocolate for her lol
Leonard would definitely be Almond/Dark
Put the mc in the template *holds Oui, who is holding a knife*
put him here
Chocolate alignment chart! Which one is you?
og pic btw :) i got inspired by asante's fanart teehee
OH MY GOD THE OG PIC IS SO 🙁💗💗🫶🏽🫶🏽 I LOVE IT 😭😭 MARI’S SO CUTE 🙁🙁❤️
Ty :]
Dark mint all the way
A question when there will be an update?
frrr
When? Tomorrow. How? Imagination.
My breath gets quieter each time someone writes Qiu as Qui (I'm nearly death)
Oui
Is this a new kind of cyberbullin :<
Oui, hon hon. Je mange Qui pour le petit-dejeuner >:)
Ohhhh c'est un très Magnifique développement, Qui?
*Oui
iqu
C'mon
uqi
You can't be serious...!
iuq
Even you, Mr. Tallest?!
You put my art as ur pfp?! I didnt notice until now lol
uhm duuuhh, i absolutely love it
uiq
Quisadilla
And the award for best reply goes to-
thats so fucking perfect but i feel there there was a missed chance of typing QIUsadilla
This is genius
Anyway even youuuu?!?
Quiwi
Quieer, Quintessential, Quixotic (i also hate it when ppl spell it qui)
Youuu toooooo?!? >:(
(Yea, seriously. Qiu himself cared about that a lot when he was little 🙁)
yes me too😔 (fr its literally always spelt out for us)
time to introduce my main OL2 OC
this is Clover "trefoil" Gill. he uses he/him pronounce and here's a few facts about him!
-he has a nut allergy and lactose intolerance ( he cant even enjoy the best ice cream flavor; pistachio ice cream)
-he has a massive crush on Qiu
-he's realy sad that he's fatherless
-he loves to draw and do math
- he used to live in Nevada before moving to oregon, and sometimes he goes back there for summer vacation with his mom
-his favorite color is black
in step 2 Clover is non ninary and uses they/him pronounce
they dyed the back side of their hair cranberry so strangers won't think their adopted
they got their right ear pierced
they were diagnosed with insomnia in 2013 (a year before step 2)
they went through the rebelious "i hate my parent" phase during step 2
aww their adorable 🥰 (ps is there any reason why trefoil is their nickname? Did they chose it or did the name just happen?)
clover got his nickname when he was around 7 when he found out that clovers (the plant) are also called trefoil, he was so proud of himself for learning that, he decided that will be his nickname. also fun fact when i was making Clover at first i wanted his nickname to be trifoilium (the scientific name for clovers) but i decided trefoil sounds better
aww that’s super duper cute 😊 The first thing I thought of when you said trefoil was girl scout cookie tho lol =)
it’s so trippy seeing clover with grey hair considering that they used to have red hair :’)
Low key thought that trefoil was based off their hair color lol-
I cannot wait for more, these games are so amazing, but must be hell to code. I loved Cove, I love Qui so far, and my best boy was here for a bit too(Baxter)
Sometimes Leonard asks Tamarack to pose for him to draw her because he finds her photogenic (It's not like he had a crush on her and wanted to draw her because he thought she was pretty-)
(Tamarack portrait drawn by Leonard in step 1)
leonard? nah, leonardo da vinci-
His name was supposed to be Leonardo but I removed the "O" at the end because I thought Leonard sounded fancier. XD
