I’ve seen so much of cocky Sylus but I feel like it’s very one dimensional. Give me worried Sylus. Give me a man who slowly crumbles, his serious demeanour cracking after MC goes missing. Give me Sylus who goes absolutely feral when he thinks she’s dead, tearing entire buildings apart on a revenge quest to find the people who took her from him. Give me emotional Sylus, on the brink of tears with both worry and relief when he eventually finally finds her, battered and bruised. Give me clingy Sylus, who refuses to let MC out of his sight for a few weeks while she recovers, pretending it’s to make sure she stays out of trouble but really it’s just to keep his mind at ease and remind himself that she’s okay, she’s alive, he that everything is fine.
Okay hear me out, the Bruce Wayne x Reader/OC trope where reader/oc is dating Bruce Wayne but gets rescued by Batman and falls in love with him without realising he’s already her boyfriend, except make it Xavier x MC.
MC who is dating Xavier, unaware he’s Lumiere. MC who gets caught in a battle with a Wanderer who is too strong, and only survives because Lumiere saves her. MC who is taken back to the ruins of a spaceship where Lumiere treats her wounds. MC who talks to Lumiere about how grateful she is he saved her twice now. MC who falls in love with the mysterious silver clad man, who desperately wants to tell her who he is, but is scared that it could endanger her, so he doesn’t. MC who is torn because she loves Xavier but also can’t stop her feelings for Lumiere.
Even without words, we communicate through our eyes.
- THEN PERISH
- Was anyone going to tell me, or….
- It’s free real estate
- I love you. (Here’s the latest news)
- Live slug reaction
- __ ? In my __? It’s more likely than you think.
And some highlights from the notes:
- Uh, yeah, I sure hope it does.
- THIS PERSON?!
- the WHAT
- Yeah, yeah, we’ve all seen it
I wish that, instead of reacting angrily or feeling attacked by the love many women feel for Love and Deepspace, some men would adopt a more open attitude and use the lessons this game offers to improve the way they treat their partners and women in general.
Love and Deepspace is designed to make us feel loved and to convey what love should feel like. For me (and I know for many others), it has taught me to understand what I truly desire in a relationship and how I want to be treated. Love interests are designed to make us feel valued, prioritized, and deeply loved. They are attentive, respectful, and caring, showing their love without coercion or demands, putting us first, and the evolution of the relationship and its intimacy is built on trust and mutual respect.
Even mechanics like the menstrual cycle representation, which has been criticized so much, are a reflection of the care and empathy that should exist in a healthy relationship. Understanding your partner's stage of the cycle not only allows you to support them more sensitively, but also to show meaningful support during phases like the luteal phase or menstruation itself.
This game isn't about sex or pornography, as many people think, but about love, respect, and genuine affection. It teaches us what true love feels like, what a healthy relationship should be like, and what it means to be authentically loved. There's nothing wrong with this, nor should those of us who enjoy this experience feel ashamed.
