Well, I beat the game quicker than I realized I would. Because of that, I'm just gonna post all my screen shots tonight, albeit in three separate posts on account of the sheer number of them.
So I've done some more reading on this here "Hatoful Boyfriend" and have learned I'm playing the "free" version and there's more intricate paid version out in Japan. What else...apparently the post-apocalyptic worldview was right, I'm some sort of Barbarian that lives in a cave, and the government is full of corrupt secret societies than want to kill people.
ANYHOW, LET'S KEEP PLAYING.
Guess we're hiking today. Though, uh, are the birds actually hiking or flitting about while I walk?
Gee, I wonder.
SURPRISE.
So I went to talk to Okosan, only he's nowhere to be found. Eventually, I ran into him.
Shut up about your pudding.
Suffice to say, he didn't stay to chat long. He mostly just screamed about pudding and ran away, leaving Katiria Statham alone with her thoughts.
Who cares? Work on seducing him, you cave-dwelling failure.
It was another elective day when we got back to school, so I decided to give music a try, since I figured I would do enough Okosan related activities in the long run.
What constitutes as a birdie melody? AND LET'S HAVE SOME BIRD PICTURES, INSTEAD OF HUMAN COMPO- Oh, right. Post-apocalyptic. :X
Yeah, I'll think long and hard about that.
OKOSAN, I WANT TO IMPRESS YOU. WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
You're not Okosan, Ryouta the pigeon. I'm well aware that my character asked why the sports festival was in May, but you are cutting into Okosan impressing time.
There we go.
Sure am, Okosan! By strange coincidence, I have not only joined the track team, but I am also here to help you with the sports festival. :X There is nothing I love more than track. And pudding. Please remember this for the future.
And that. What with the only female thing too. Also, I am human representative.
Then summer came and Katiria Statham had insight on the matter.
.
Truly, one of the last great minds in this war torn land. Also, I discovered that I had failed all my exams because instead of opting to go to Math class on the "elective" days, I've been running off to gym and music. Oops.
Yeah, what gives? Is it Okosan? Because I really want to impress him.
Actually, it's the upperclassman half-brother, talking about the accomplishments of Brian the pigeon.
.
Good for Brian.
.
I'm glad your flashback includes the URL, Yuuya. I'd be lost otherwise.
.
No! That Brian?!
He is a national treasure, Yuuya. We can never let him go.
What influence? Being able to rename the Olympics?
Also, if you're flirting with me, Yuuya, I should let you know that I've already decided Okosan shall have my heart and no human aura bird will ever get past my defenses. Nice try, though.
Then it was a free day. So I opted for what made the most sense to do with my free time.
By which I mean, eating. I LIVE IN A CAVE. From what I can tell, I cook things over a fire pit. Give me some cafeteria cuisine, please.
....
God damn it, Katiria Statham. You're not in your crap cave home right now. Eat something normal. Although I suppose the lunch ladies are probably pigeons too and maybe half-dead fried rice is the BOMB. You might have offered me worms or ants, at the very least.
HELLO-- WHAT'S THIS? I chose this place at random, but I'd know those overly dramatic accusations anywhere!
OKOSAN!~ <3
...and Ryouta the pigeon. 'sup, Bro?
We have pudding and I'm eating half-dead rice? Lame.
Calm down, Okosan. It's just pudding. Give me the cream and be on your way. I think it would be more nutritious straight than my half-dead rice.
There is something very satisfying to me about a pigeon screaming "Help me, Statham!"
So I'm supposed to either help Ryouta the pigeon restrain Okosan or tell him to let Okosan go on his rampage about pudding.
Yeah, you're not surprised either.
I...am not sure what that has to do with anything. Is he?
Ryouta the pigeon is as skeptical as I am.
...Okosan won't have any of it. THAT'S RIGHT, OKOSAN. TELL RYOUTA THE PIGEON OFF.
That's right, I scored me a pigeon boyfriend.
Wait, what? What the hell is that? What am I talking about?
...exactly, Ryouta the pigeon. :/
Well, anyhow, immediately following that interesting exchange, it was another elective day. Sadly, I chose math, as not to fail anymore classes.
God damn you, Mathematics.
Suddenly, it was some summer celebration and I ventured from my cave to go, like, make a wish on some magic paper tree that I thought was part of the New Year's celebration.
Because, you know, expecting to see a person in a public location outside of the bird-school is just crazy.
There's a lot you could wish for, Katiria Statham. Okosan as your boyfriend, to pass your classes, you not be the only woman/human apparently left in the world, to have a real house, for a Skip-it...
Hm. Did not realize I had so many world domination tendancies. Let's go with the shadows one, as that seems the most logical.
Oh, hi, Home room teacher.
Uhm, if this world is only populated by pigeons, I think I'll be fine. Thanks anyhow.
None the less, he offers to walk me home.
Oh, what the hell. I said yes.
My house sucks.
After whining for a bit about being lonely, he left and I went to sleep. When I went to school again, I had good news.
I guess my grades went up? Yay?
And WHAT a semester!
As it was the end of the semester, I went to clean up the club room. And found Okosan there.
What are you doing, Okosan?
There are beans too?! WHY AM I EATING HALF-DEAD RICE, SERIOUSLY?
So Okosan is stuffing his fatass pigeon face. I have two options.
What can I say? Peer pressure and I want the guy to like me. JUST LIKE HIGH SCHOOL.
...that probably should have killed us.
NEVER MIND THAT NOW, IT'S SUMMER FESTIVAL TIME.
Wonder who I'm gonna invite lololol.
Yeah, it is.
We ended up going to some fair where Okosan started whining about wanting pudding again. Then there were fireworks, that Katiria thought was romantic. But when she asked Okosan what he thought, he was nowhere to be found.
Feral Ancestry? So he's just a normal pigeon? That's pretty much what I was going for in this game. Sweet, my boyfriend isn't even an intelligent pigeon-- success!
Sadly, it doesn't last. The next scene, I woke up and panicked because it was the first day of school and my cave doesn't have a clock. Racing to school, I ran into Homeroom teacher, only to be informed that I'm a cyborg.
Ok, maybe not exactly. Why do I have numbers that people know about in the left hand corner of my field of vision? I kinda assumed the date was just something I knew.
Anyhow, it's not a school day, but he could still use my help.
My house sucks.
Yes, a proper little lady. One who stays in buildings with air conditioners and not a GODDAMN CAVE.
I think that's a good stopping point for now.
