I just want to interject to say...



Worst.  Sabre.  Ever.

Thing must be like a foot and a half long.

Also, why not.

Ozma, you have a copy of the official strategy guide, right? Actually, didn't there used to be scans up in the Empty Movement gallery? Also, re: "Love Love" events. Apparently you activate Miki and Saionji's by talking to them the night of the 23rd and then bringing them cake, but is it the same for Juri and Touga?

Yeah, I actually bought it because I found the first thread.  It made me want to play the game, so I popped it into my Saturn...and discovered my battery had died, taking all my saves with it.    Also my Japanese had horribly atrophied, which meant I needed help getting through it again.

There did indeed used to be scans.  Juri's last two pages were missing, IIRC.

Love-Love Events:  Miki's can also be activated by not giving him cake and then talking to him in the Music Room.  For Juri, you have to talk to her after the Student Council Meeting the afternoon of the 24th.  I'm not sure if there is more to it than that.  As for Touga, nothing's marked in language I can easily understand as being the trigger, so I'm gonna go with this:

Touga:
I see... that's worrying.
Then, if it's all right with you,
how about sleeping in my room tonight?
I could protect you during the night.

Oh Touga, you smooth operator, you.

We are totally that kind of girl.

Touga:
Well, either way, isn't it about time to go inside?
You invited me over, didn't you?
And I brought over this specially-ordered Southern Italian soy sauce.

Utena:
European soy sauce?
(Isn't that kind of weird)?

Yes, yes that is very weird. In fact I'm pretty sure Sicilians don't use soy sauce at all, Touga. But that's okay, why don't you come spend the night in my room? I'll keep you safe from your own gross ignorance about Italian cuisine.

But what if Touga is Italian, and Utena didn't realize inviting him over was 'specially ordering' his Southern soy sauce?

God, that's salty.

Ah, so it can! The conversation about the letter just replaces the "first action" conversation, and then you get the opportunity to proceed to the second as normal.


Not-so-shockingly, D-ko instantly agrees to Touga's proposal.

D-ko:
I... is that really alright?
Thank you!

Utena:
H, hey...
If you go to this guy's room,
you have no idea what might happen!

Oh, don't we?

Touga:
Such harsh words.
Could you possibly be jealous?

Utena:
No way!

Nanami:
He's just joking, right?
Inviting a worthless girl from who-knows-where like her to our house.

Touga:
You're going a bit too far, Nanami.

Nanami:
But, big brother...!

Touga:
Well, it's fine.
It's still a while before night.
Please think it over.
My door will be unlocked.

D-ko:
Um, sure...
I... I wonder if it's seriously okay to do that.
Then maybe, tonight I could... ah!

Yes, D-ko. I think we all get the implication.

Meanwhile, Nanami expresses doubts as to D-ko's lineage using the sort of phrase that an angry father might use when objecting to his daughter's suitor. Priceless.

TOUGA +1
53% -> 61% (+8%)

Shadow Girls:
I wonder, I wonder, do you know what I wonder?

A-ko:
Night is the time to perform fairy tales!
Long, long ago, in a certain place,
there was a prince, and a princess,
and an evil queen.

B-ko:
Hmm, hmm.

A-ko:
The evil queen grew rich through her powerful magic.
She had status, and fame, too.

B-ko:
Ahh... I'm so jealous!

A-ko:
But, the only place her hand couldn't reach was the prince's heart.
Therefore...

B-ko:
Hold on a minute!

A-ko:
What is it? We're just getting to the good part!

B-ko:
You're doing great, but I can't see your performance at all.

A-ko:
Oh, no!!!

Seeking to touch the prince's heart, the Evil Queen turned to the power of song! She practiced long and hard on her favorite stringed instrument. However, the prince turned out to totally hate Hawaiian music! Her heart broken, the Evil Queen died, but her spirit lingered. And so, the resentful ukulele haunts this world even now. Beware! Beware! She is still somewhere in this world. You, too, beware!

I'll bet that's exactly how the rest of the story goes. 

D-ko:
For some reason, I can't sleep.
I guess a lot of things happened today...
I wonder what I should do? Is there anything I can do, all by myself?
Back at the masquerade, the masked person said...
that I would disappear.
Is that true...? Could it possibly be true?
Maybe, before I disappear tomorrow, I should go talk with someone...?

CHOICE:
Utena (UTENA +2)
Touga (TOUGA +3)
Saionji (SAIONJI +5)
Juri (JURI +5)
Miki (MIKI +3)
Don't discuss it with anyone (No points, but it is a valid choice and something does happen)

Who shall we run to in the middle of the night, to quell our fears? (Once again, don't worry about points. They're irrelevant now.)

I wanna know what Saionji's going to do at night that counts for +5 points.

But weren't you going to go to Touga's room? I kinda want follow up on that.

Touga, I must know just how far this can go.

Touga

This can only end well.

Touga, and if all else fails, Saionji.


Seriously.  Win or loose, I would love to know what on earth is worthy of 5 points in Saionji's book.


IS HE CAMP'N IN HIS APRON??

Damn it! But I worry about points anyway! Juri and Saionji, 5 points? Wow...  I wonder what happens there..

For Juri, D-ko gets her locket back. Maybe for Saionji she retrieves his exchange diary?

Touga! After all the previous discussion, how could we not?

Pick Utena!

I do want to see what happens if we choose nobody, but I'm too intrigued by more Touga time...
