Okay guyz, the plot twist that we ALL knew was coming. So, the question is, what do we do about it?

A. Let her down gently, and stay with Kogasa.
B. Becoming her girlfriend, making Kogasa cry.
C. Say to hell with common sense, and go for the harem ending.

I want Sanae to stay with Kogasa, personally. And I don't think Sanae is the type to have a fling on the side. Plus, Sanae is happy with Kogasa right now.

But... I'll wait to see what others say (if anyone else does say something.)

Insufficient information. So:

>What are our feelings for Konngara?

Kasu · « **Reply #364 on:** April 20, 2011, 11:22:26 PM »

It'll probably be best to let her down gently.

Also I'd just like to say that in the last two days I've learned a lot about Yume Nikki. :3

Tamashii Kanjou · « **Reply #365 on:** April 20, 2011, 11:33:20 PM »

hehe, these quests can do that to you.

So, if we're happy with that...

EDIT: Actually, never mind. Ignore me. ^^

... Do you really want to go with that? You're making her sound like an actress in a soap opera.

Guy's command, while not the one I would go with, gets close to the mark: we need to figure out why Sanae would stay with Kogasa over Konngara. What are the traits in both Kogasa and Konngara that Sanae admires? Would Sanae want to stay with Kogasa due to a sense of obligation? Are there any alternatives?

Most importantly: is this a decision that Sanae would make this instant, or can she possibly hold off until she's had her head put straight? Remember that there's a certain mind reader at the palace that can help get things straight for Sanae.

GuyYouMetOnline · « **Reply #367 on:** April 21, 2011, 12:48:18 AM »

There is an alternative, of course: keep both of them.

I'd expect that it'll work best for Sanae to stay with Kogasa, but until I know what she thinks about KOnngara, I can't say for sure. Hence the command for that information.

Tamashii Kanjou · « **Reply #368 on:** April 21, 2011, 12:51:59 AM »

You have a good point. I'll scratch my post and leave it be. Giving Sanae time to think about it certainly is better off.

I'll leave it to you Sect; I'm no good with love stuff. :ohdear:

zephyredx · « **Reply #369 on:** April 21, 2011, 01:03:22 AM »

Ooh...tought spot. I also think this question can't be decided right away, although I'm leaning toward Kogasa. What about the bath together and the picture?

EDIT: Also, personality-wise, Konngara is a bit too serious and reserved for Sanae, who is more lively and openly displays her quirks. Kogasa's playful and surprise-ful (how else to put it?) nature goes hand-in-hand with Sanae's. It seems fitting that Sanae should view Konngara as a good, reliable friend rather than a romantic interest.

Gee, I'm glad that I'm considered the love guru around here :|

See, here's good discussion material.

This is my suggestion: talk to Konngara, first, find out why she likes Sanae. This is a pretty big bomb that she's dropped on Sanae, after all, so Sanae will be stumbling and trying to figure out what's going on. Asking Konngara questions like "why she likes her" and "since when" and "why did she tell her now" will allow Sanae to buy time and composure, and it will let Konngara be proactive for once.

Then, if we still don't know what to do, tatsukete Satori.

EDIT: Also, forgot about this: Guy, it's not a bad suggestion, entering a command to find out what Sanae thinks about Konngara, but the problem is that we're the ones that have the most control over how Sanae thinks about Konngara, not the parser. We got a little info at the beginning, and we've been roleplaying as Sanae with Konngara since.

Hello Purvis · « **Reply #371 on:** April 21, 2011, 03:58:37 AM »

I personally favor Kogasa for the obviousness that Sanae does, and I doubt she's just going to run off on Kogasa. I'm thinking a good deal of "What? Huh? Why?" flailing is appropriate the moment. And we feels it out from there. This said, Option C sounds the most hilarious, but I dunno if it's in character. I'll depend on how Konngara acts I think. Anyways, as such?

>"Huh?"
>Shocked face!
>"Wha? Why?"

Sect · « **Reply #372 on:** April 21, 2011, 04:04:59 AM »

I'm good with that. We should have a couple more hours to decide, since Himiko's off for tonight.

GuyYouMetOnline · « **Reply #373 on:** April 21, 2011, 04:17:14 AM »

Sanae's interacted with Konngara in the past, and we only saw those events from Parsee's perspective. I realize that we have the most control over how she thinks and acts, but the parser may have something to tell us anyways. No harm in asking, right?

That might be an option, but doesn't mind-reading imply finding out something that we already know about ourselves? I think Koishi would be more suitable (albeit more difficult?) to ask.

Agreeing with Purvi. Let's see how Konngara responds.

Suggested next line: "But...um...I'm flattered and all. But, there's Kogasa, and I really care about her and stuff...and...oh..."

But if you got better, go for it.

Got here. Ok, guys, listen. My bet is: Stay with Kogasa, turn down Konngara.
We have to stay cool and do a lotta teamwork not to have a heartbroken Konngara ragind around the world.

>"A....Aren't you jealous that I'm... I'm with Kogasa?"

We got to check what she feels about Kogasa first. Does she hate her? Does she hold a grudge? If she doesn't give a damn, then her love is somewhat weak.

Don't word it like that. It makes you look like you're fishing for negative emotions and reactions from Konngara, and that's more Parsee's style.

Hello Purvis · « **Reply #383 on:** April 21, 2011, 05:46:01 PM »

Yeah, the last thing we wanna pull is a "Oh, you're not jealous of Kogasa, then you don't actually care!" kind of maneuver. At best it'll just break her. At worst it'll mark Kogasa.
