/ddlc/ - Doki Doki Literature Club! #366

is precious!

So this is how it dies, huh? God, what content creators are even left?

I do, too

I think we could all use a hug from our doki right about now

Why are these threads going so downhill?
I don't know what I'm going to do when they inevitably go away.
I guess I should just try to enjoy what I have here now.

be decent

Stop doomposting. Start cuteposting

Astolfo!

Guro user and the 2 drawfriends from yesterday, maybe
Guro user just got deleted last thread too, so I dunno if he's banned or not

I'm still here. Don't write as much but I lie most of the time. Idk if I'll frequent the general as much but I'll still keep trying and if I see good writing prompts I'll give a shot at them

Everyone keeps fucking overreacting

go away
this is partially your fault

Wait, mods are actually bans all posts about avatars, pro and contra
I don't even understand what's happening anymore, anons
I guess I'll run back to imagining dokis being happy

This is my favorite gif. You can have it!

Thanks Strelok.

reworking the Rip and Bake image to be a little more like natsuki

so when natsuki's neck broke, did she die? all the other girls had a proper death, except natsuki. she just got deleted off screen.

Still here.
Just got hunted by the janny-ssaries.

You don't understand, these threads are literally one of the few times that I'm happy.

we just got to stick together things will turn up sooner or later user if you want to read a fic or two check here pastebin.com/BRy67t0s
otherwise you can go i staying till the end
you can check out this MMD x DDLC vid here
youtube.com/watch?v=4yd47Y7fhdE&ab_channel=BrinbMMD

stop posting this picture every single thread, this isn't helping, it's making it worse

...

I can understand why
the whole avatarposter discussion is off topic and derails the thread constantly

but can she go faster?

>Jannies are just deleting greens related to the game now
Fucking great
Janny applications opening again WHEN?

>doomposting
>the end is near
Seems doki related to me.

Either it was the same guy ban evading which is why he got deleted so fast.
Or, I think it's just the guy deleting his own post to start some more drama.

The only course of action is to stop talking about him and post more cute. So here's my contribution.

Last week

>so when natsuki's neck broke, did she die?
Well, she was fine afterwards, so obviously not

>the janny is back
we /space classroom/ now

...

I love her too.

We've dealt with rampant jannies, we've dealt with raids, we've dealt with waifu wars, and we've dealt with shitposters. We can handle a few deleted posts.

I know he's a bit controversial here but teacheranon gave some pretty good advice to me. People take their own paths. If he writefreinds want to leave then we need to take their place. I've always wanted to write more anyone so I'll give it a shot. I suggest you guys do as well. For the general.

Now let's post some cute doki.

Agreed

oh, duh. i remembered it happening nearer to yuri's death. i couldn't remember her appearing again. sorry user. here, have a cute doki to say sorry.

...

then why let it die? there plenty of people that care about these threads we cant give up hope and doompost user we make up we anons make up the community so do the avatar anons there are not here we are we just got to be optimistic for our sake and our dokis if we are ever going to see the best of these threads again we must see it at its worse thats what i believe

That's the spirit man

I don't know. You tell me.

DDLC on the Switch when? I wanna take my doki everywhere and not just usb because that's a coffin not a home.

Good morning! Afternoon now?
Welcome back one and all!

Word of the thread is "peace"~!
Alternatives are 'fire' and 'shock'.

Hope fully I'm not too late, but everyone is welcome to participate and join in on the fun! To those that don't know, the word is a shared theme for the thread so that everyone can compare and contrast their works together.
Having it be the same helps with that since we can all see what the others do differently!
Of course, if you don't like the word (or alternatives), you can always write something else and share it with us!
As always, thank you for joining in and participating, and I'm looking forward to reading your poems!
Have fun!

Look at this cute picture of Monika!
Look at it!
Monika!

Anyone willing to do something for the thread

Nobody seems to care anymore about the hidden lore but the broken neck is something that has been puzzling me.

First look at the picture, unlike Yuri or Sayori she doesn't really look like a dead girl to me, more like some kind of monster. And the canon seems [proof needed] to be ghost3.png.
If you add to that the fact that the END was reversed, something really is fishy here.

I just had a post speculating why Teach got a ban, wondering if it was the avatar or goading on shitposters. It was deleted.

I'm looking at it!

This guy gets it

I agree!
Would anyone be interested if I wrote some horror fics? I mean, this IS a horror game after all, right?

Yeah, I guess the best we can do is be optimistic and ignore the people ruining these threads, they'll get bored eventually if we ignore them.
You can get it on android as an APK.

>If he writefreinds want to leave then we need to take their place.
I mean, I like to write and all, but fics/poetry ain't my dig. What do?

It was the former, though he was guilty of the latter as well.

cosmic horror or the gruesome sort? Because we already got our fill of latter last thread

take courage for the sake of the general

Sometimes, my heart starts to go doki doki very fast from all the tension in this general.

Thanks no commas user, we appreciate it. Here: ,,,,,,

somebody say cuteposting?

...

yes please
but less gore stuff

...

someone mentioned a while back that it could be the MC hallucinating because, on a subconscious level, he still remembered Sayori and her death fucked him up in the head
but hey, it's just a theroy

Why is there no Monika route in the "original" game anyway? In a game with such a limited cast, it's really weird, especially when she appears frequently.

Ya gotta learn man. I'm not particularly good but I think this can be an opportunity for us. Don't you want to write something that inspires people to make this general better?

I would actually like to take a shot at some body horror.

i agree! there's other suspicious parts of her character as well. like how when yuri is going crazy she's completely fine. she even warns you in a sensible and subtle way. something someone in a state like yuri or sayori probably wouldn't do.

EVERYONE has said cuteposting so far.
it's the only thing we can talk about without getting deleted.

Encourage the people that actually are writing!

I wish for peace

When times of sorrow
Come each day,
I always feel sad
And sigh away.

Always a war, needs fighting
Always a life, suffering,
Oh, how I wish,
I wish for peace.

Though, I know, 'tis a test
Laid for us by a hurtful god,
That the day comes
Of no more burden,
No more load.

A time of love,
A time of ease,
Oh, how I wish,
I wish for peace.

But, what would I give
For people to always get along,
Instead of shouting curses
To, maybe, sing a song?

I hope, I will live
To see my dream come true,
As, I hope, your dreams do to.
Right now, I will wish,
I wish for peace.

Evening, everyone! \o/ let's get some cute yuri in! Especially if she is barefoot!

Hey everyone!

How's it going? Don't think I forgot about our poetry session tonight. Have you been reading poems? Which ones have you found interesting? Looking back, I have never been one that was much into poetry, so for me this was a pleasant experience. Below I will share some of my favorite pieces I was able to read this week.

Next weekend we're discussing the second and final part of "Lolita". But for those who are not reading it, I have prepared another interesting task. Short stories!

Short stories are great, probably my favorite medium. The ability to synthesize a plot enough to make it precise yet consistent and interesting is one of it's main keys. So same as this week, look up short stories and share it with others!

Some of the best short stories I read are:
>A perfect day for Banana Fish by J.D. Salinger: ae-lib.org.ua/salinger/Texts/N1-Bananafish-en.htm
>The intruder by J.L Borges: unz.org/Pub/Encounter-1969apr-00015
>House taken over by J Cortázar: jessbarga.wikispaces.com/file/view/Cortázar, House Taken Over.pdf
>The second bakery attack by H Murakami: web.mit.edu/norvin/www/somethingelse/murakami.html

And I could go on forever!

Anyways, I will reply to this post with some of my favourite poems. Hopefully you'll enjoy them!

because mc was a neet way out of her league

Did somebody mentioned gore?
Time for another sequel!

It's just Monika doing some creepy shit to try and scare you into staying away from Natsuki

>You can get it on android as an APK.
I MUST LEARN HOW TO DO THIS NOW

ARE YOU GONNA GIVE UP NOW? WHERE ARE MY FELLOW CUTEPOSTERS?

>Motivational user likes feet
I will keep this in mind for the future

Her voice by Oscar Wilde

The wild bee reels from bough to bough
With his furry coat and his gauzy wing.
Now in a lily-cup, and now
Setting a jacinth bell a-swing,
In his wandering;
Sit closer love: it was here I trow
I made that vow,

Swore that two lives should be like one
As long as the sea-gull loved the sea,
As long as the sunflower sought the sun,--
It shall be, I said, for eternity
'Twixt you and me!
Dear friend, those times are over and done,
Love's web is spun.

Look upward where the poplar trees
Sway and sway in the summer air,
Here in the valley never a breeze
Scatters the thistledown, but there
Great winds blow fair
From the mighty murmuring mystical seas,
And the wave-lashed leas.

Look upward where the white gull screams,
What does it see that we do not see?
Is that a star? or the lamp that gleams
On some outward voyaging argosy,--
Ah! can it be
We have lived our lives in a land of dreams!
How sad it seems.

Sweet, there is nothing left to say
But this, that love is never lost,
Keen winter stabs the breasts of May
Whose crimson roses burst his frost,
Ships tempest-tossed
Will find a harbour in some bay,
And so we may.

And there is nothing left to do
But to kiss once again, and part,
Nay, there is nothing we should rue,
I have my beauty,--you your Art,
Nay, do not start,
One world was not enough for two
Like me and you.

SIR, YES SIR!

>fast

i meant the opposite
that she is way out of mc's league

That never stopped anyone

Thanks Sayori.

I mean, I guess I can incorporate my love for fantasy somehow. I remember Teach was gonna write something like that.

Let me mull it over for a few days, I'm more afraid of butchering the characters than anything else.

I installed it on my phone a few days ago and it works just like the PC version. There's even a menu to delete .chr files if you want to remove best girl when the game lets you.
There's also this which is pretty cool.

Take your time, man. We'll still be here no matter what anyone says.

If you forget me by P Neruda

I want you to know
one thing.

You know how this is:
if I look
at the crystal moon, at the red branch
of the slow autumn at my window,
if I touch
near the fire
the impalpable ash
or the wrinkled body of the log,
everything carries me to you,
as if everything that exists,
aromas, light, metals,
were little boats
that sail
toward those isles of yours that wait for me.

Well, now,
if little by little you stop loving me
I shall stop loving you little by little.

If suddenly
you forget me
do not look for me,
for I shall already have forgotten you.

If you think it long and mad,
the wind of banners
that passes through my life,
and you decide
to leave me at the shore
of the heart where I have roots,
remember
that on that day,
at that hour,
I shall lift my arms
and my roots will set off
to seek another land.

But
if each day,
each hour,
you feel that you are destined for me
with implacable sweetness,
if each day a flower
climbs up to your lips to seek me,
ah my love, ah my own,
in me all that fire is repeated,
in me nothing is extinguished or forgotten,
my love feeds on your love, beloved,
and as long as you live it will be in your arms
without leaving mine.

damn you i keep for getting commas by accident! but on serious note its up to us to keep this afloat to help each other help out and give advice when need im not good speaker like gutsanon or even teach but im willing to help i hope you anons are willing to help and to keep these threads alive with me this is like second home to me

first for tf2 engineer

Deploying the backup blanket!

Stay comfy!
Keep it wholesome!
I hope you're having a nice day~
I love you!

We need guys like teacheranon right now. Even if you don't like him we still need contributing members of this community, and he played a pretty big roll.

How about you encourage new writers and review their stuff?

Sure, as long as you don't break any rules.

>The commuter slows down to a stop, you look overhead at the display panel
>You've arrived back in your neighbourhood
>As the crowd leaves, you followed them not far behind
>As per usual, the line was long enough to wind down the staircase

>Grabbing by your arm and with a lob over her shoulders, she lifted you up
>Trying to walk you over to bed
>"There, there. You'll rest down for the night" as she nuzzles you on the cheek
>She lay you down onto the bed, you were already half asleep
>Yuri undresses your working attire, leaving you to sleep in your undergarments

SANIC SAVE US

Haikus by M Basho

Waking in the night;
the lamp is low,
the oil freezing.

It has rained enough
to turn the stubble on the field
black.

Winter rain
falls on the cow-shed;
a cock crows.

The leeks
newly washed white,-
how cold it is!

The sea darkens;
the voices of the wild ducks
are faintly white.

Ill on a journey;
my dreams wander
over a withered moor.
