Dating Sim with Sexy Bowser
Jan. 10th, 2016 09:41 amA Game of Castles, the Peach/Bowser fic I'm working on right now, is probably the most self-indulgent thing I've ever written. Essentially, Peach is romanced by all of the Koopalings, each of whom is a gorgeous adult with a hint of villainy thrown in for spice. That's not where the story began, but that's the direction it went in, and I just sat back and let it happen.
Meanwhile, I'm having a lot of fun writing the Mushroom Kingdom as a postapocalyptic wasteland and Luigi as a caricature of nihilistic existentialism.
It's almost embarrassing how much I'm enjoying myself.
In the chapter I'm going to post tomorrow morning, Peach and Bowser finally get together. Their relationship isn't exactly fluffy, so they haven't been flirting, but the entire story has been an ongoing process of the two of them figuring out that they can drop their barriers when they're alone together. When Peach finally allows herself to get legitimately angry at Bowser, which is the one thing she'd never do in front of anyone else, he's overcome with emotion and kisses her.
I've gotten very few comments so far, but I expect at least one person to jump out of the woodwork at this point to be like, THIS IS ABRUPT AND MAKES NO SENSE.
To which of course my response is, WHATEVER THEY ARE CUTE AND I DON'T CARE.
