Okay.

I have utterly failed at keeping this blog updated with posts.

I look back at previous things I’ve posted under Site Updates and they’re all like “This is what I’m gonna do next!” and then that thing never happened. 6_6

BUT THIS TIME FOR REAL

I’VE GOT IT DOWN THIS TIME

Daily blog posts.  They’re gonna happen.

Really, Bridget?  You might ask yourself this.  And my answer is, YES, REALLY.  Because the method for doing so is so simple, I can’t believe I didn’t think of it and implement it before now.

Since the beginning, I’ve wanted to use this site to blog about fashion and shopping finds.  I’ve been doing this successfully on my Kawaii Shopping Tumblr, and I just realized…

I can just post the same content here.

I’ve been posting daily to Kawaii Shopping since November of last year.  Sometimes I really like the things that I discover and post there.  I don’t know why I never thought of sharing them on this blog as well.

Guess when these daily cute shopping posts are going to start?  Answer: Tomorrow.

ARE YOU AS EXCITED AS I AM??

Probably not. ._.

–

So yeah, that’s thing the first.  Thing the second is that I’ve started a Storenvy shop and I am almost completely finished stocking it with all of the Boutique things I’m going to be selling.  That is the other thing that’s going to happen.  The Boutique.  The thing I’ve been talking about happening since January 2011.

ARE YOU AS EXCITED AS I AM?!?!

… Probably not. .___.

Bunny Bani makes one (very) final trip to the infirmary as her junior year at St. PigeoNation’s comes to an end, and so too does this playthrough.

You know what? I don’t think I’m even going to comment on these in between every screenshot. I’ll just post them all here and let you form your own responses. (Might still use alt text, though. You were reading the alt text in all of the previous entries, right?)

… And if we were playing only the free demo version of the game, this is where Shuu’s path would end.  Seriously.  Credits roll, return to title screen.  This is what happens when you SUCCEED in getting close to him.

But because I’m an especially nice person, and because I love the intrigue of the game’s real plot ever so much, I’m going to share with you the full version of Dr. Iwamine Shuu’s ending.  There were certainly far grander events going on at this school than any of us realized, and Shuu was right at the center of it.  There are consequences that go along with murdering a specimen as important as the sole human girl who was enrolled in the school.

 There is the sound of glass shattering.

… And the sound of a gunshot.

Cue game credits, complete with cheerful orgel music.

And finally, the CG unlocked for completing Shuu’s ending:

How romantic!

And there we are.  The end of these Hatoful Boyfriend posts.  However, I’m sure you noticed that there’s far more to this story than one initially prepares oneself for.  There’s an entire plot of conspiracy and intrigue threading through the paths the heroine might take as she goes to school and befriends her avian classmates.  You remember that there are eight more of them besides Shuu, right?  That’s eight different characters to see these events with, such as the Summer festival, school maid cafe (pigeon maid uniforms!), and Sports event.  These posts have only shown you one character, who I think is the most dramatic of all of them, but the other boys’ endings are certainly worth experiencing yourself!

Oh, and of course, all of that conspiracy and intrigue?  There’s a bonus chapter that unlocks after completing all of the endings, which fans refer to as either Bad Boys Love or Hurtful Boyfriend.  It cranks the darkness, creepiness, and intensity of storytelling up to 11 as every character’s backstory is divulged even more, and we finally learn everything there is to learn about St. PigeoNation’s closely-guarded secrets.

But you’ll have to experience that for yourself.  Do you think these numerous hours of entertainment, 9 date-able bishounenpigeons, and 14 different endings are worth your $5?  Then you really, really want to download the full version now.

Things are starting to get really exciting here. This is the final stretch before the very end… Readers weak of heart may want to turn back now.

Those hipster Buddhists.

Our cave has a… door… What is this mysterious parcel?

IT’S DRUGS.

This would be kind of sweet if it weren’t so suspicious.

…………………

….. Is ………… this ………….

Most grotesque Shin Buddhist Christmas dinner ever…

Unfortunately the same can’t be said for that poor helpless chap you ate on Christmas.
Bunny Bani decides to pay a visit to the shrine, what with it being New Year’s and all.

Ladies’ clothing becomes you, Ryouta.

We encountered Kazuaki near the fortunes. Hey man, at least you didn’t EAT a chicken of ill omen.

And here’s our fortune. Blessing is a good word. Better than omen.

?!?!?!?!?!?!?!???!?!?!!

I like how Shuu’s automatic reaction any time we ask him what he’s doing is to ask if it’s a crime.

Oh, he’s here to pilfer test subjects. Everything’s fine! And then he leaves.

Have fun storming the infirmary!

You forgot to say “everybirdie.”

Nanaki-sensei reminds us that our junior year will be over before we know it, and that we should enjoy it while it lasts.

I see we’ve already forgotten about the creepy doctor man.

Chapter three!

I’ll remember to mark February 3rd as Legumentine’s every year from now on.

Now, you’d think the doc would go for bitter food. However, his reaction is the same for all of the beans except the Racing Blend. It’s the popular flavor this year and a little more expensive than the others, and that will be important later!

If he doesn’t like them, he’ll have my head! HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHahshakdflfka

You love that stack of papers more than you love me. ;__;

This weird conversation about avian ova and test tube babies happened.

He liked them. 😀

What is happening to this conversation

Well I guess that turned out alright. At least he thought they were fascinating…?

Bunny tries to tell him what’s what, but the man(/bird) is just too crippling pragmatic for complicated holidays like Legumentine’s.

Our heroine is admiringly determined.

The romantic holiday in this universe might be Legumentine’s, but February 14 is an important day, too. It’s do or die. Well, really the only option is die. In the next post, the exciting conclusion…

Okay!!  We took a small break, but now we’re back at St. PigeoNation’s!

This school has some kind of event every week!  Seriously, a maid cafe??

Bani-chan heads outside to check out the food stalls, and who should show up, but…

Come on, this one is obvious.

And there’s no way he could be up to something sinister at all.

RUN FOR IT HE’S GOING TO STUFF YOU INTO THE INCINERATOR

Remember: Ninja doctor.

Stalking, says the guy who wanted a lock of my hair.

“Would you like a closer look?”

Oh. See? Totally reasonable explanation. The man is completely innocent!

Shot down. :c

Sigh, guess we’ll just head back, then –

WAIT WHAT WAS THAT

Later…

You what
I’m sorry but when you say ‘recorder,’ are you talking about the musical instrument, or am I confused?
HOW DO YOU MAKE THAT MISTAKE? O_O

Whoa what are they talking about. Data? Is Shuu referring to the notes that he was taking during the school’s Sporting Event?

Hmm, toughie!! But I want Shuu to like me and preferably not murder me so let’s take up his side.

I almost forgot that Shuu isn’t a very nice person. u_u Now I feel kind of bad for Nanaki-san. Anyway, after this, Bunny offered Kazuaki the correct homework and got her recorder back.  I don’t even know.

Later still…

NOW what??

What? We care about Yuuya all of a sudden?

“I’m afraid he had some business inside the incinerator to attend to. …Hohoho.”

“Playing hooky” is code for “being murdered.”

DON’T CONFRONT HIM, ARE YOU CRAZY

I always did think he had such a nice smile.

…Oh. For a second there, I thought…

TO HEAR YOUR VOICE

YES

SQUEALING.GIF oh god I hope this does not end violently

It means he’ll kill us last.

I know what you’re thinking. “This couldn’t possibly start sounding any more ominous,” right? Well, WE HAVE NOT EVEN SCRATCHED THE SURFACE OF OMINOUS-NESS YET…

Whew…  Okay, so I piled a bit too much on my plate and almost burned myself out for a minute there. n_n

I jumped into the Hatoful Boyfriend guide without being finished with the other overhauls I had planned for the site, and those efforts in conjunction with the daily work I put towards my Kawaii Shopping and Finer Fashion Shopper blogs as well had me feeling so overwhelmed, I could barely accomplish anything at all!

So I’m slowing down for a bit.  Hatoful Boyfriend posts are going to be put on hold until I finish posting all of my completed pony plushes, which I’ve gotten reeeeeaaally far behind on.  There are THIRTEEN more ponies I’ve finished since I last updated!  So I’ll be spending the next day or so putting my photos of them together in neat little images and uploaded straight into the gallery that’s on this page (also on DeviantArt).

Then I’ll hurry along through Shuu’s path in Hatoful Boyfriend and get those posts up in the coming days after that!  Ideally, we’ll have the Hatoful Boyfriend posts finished with before this week is up.

And THENNNN I’ll get back to work on the other projects I’ve mentioned here and there in my posts.  The book about sewing cute plushes and things will be resumed, as well as the packages of downloadable items such as icons and wallpapers.  I still have a lot of irons in the fire, but I need to keep reminding myself not to try to accomplish them all at the same time!  Doing so leads only to exhaustion and disappointment when I inevitably don’t accomplish the far-too-many things that are on my to-do list.

So keep an eye on the Pony Plush Commissions page for the newest ponies!  After that will come all of the other fun stuff I just mentioned. c:
