So recently Dress Up Time Princess had an event that asked players to write fanfic. A lot of it is dross, of course, but there were some good ones.

For context: These are all based on the first "book" of the game, where the Player becomes Marie Antoinette at the eve of the French Revolution. In the game, there's one story route that will let you successfully push through reforms to same the monarchy. With the other route, the revolution still happens, and the good ends there generally result in the Player escaping France with the romance target of her choice.

what's going to be left of the world when I'm not in it, by Etsi Keating (meta-story angst)

Untitled and its sequel Untitled 2, by Angela G.A. (MC x Louis XVI)

Persuasion, by TalaMayumi (MC x Louis XVI)

Another Marie, by Fairylace (MC x Marquis de Lafayette)

untitled 2 by oldlizmar (post-story epilogue)

It's funny that most people wrote either MCxLafayette or xLouis XVI or even xGabrielle but almost nobody wrote xFerson (the more historically accurate romantic pairing).

Especially funny that I seem to like the fics featuring Louis XVI the most, despite that of all the NPCs, he had the least...well not screentime, but definitely the least focus for romance in the game storyline. Not sure what that says about things.

Am I right to understand this means you've gotten into DUTP fanfic? Does this mean I should try getting into DUTP?

Also, why does this feel a little like self-insert fic writing...?

Yeah, I'm not sure I'm in the dress-up game market right now. Also, I prefer an Asian aesthetic to the European one. ^^; I'll let you know if I ever decide to take it up.

(P.S. Any changes? How're things?)

(P.P.S. Updated fic!)
