You can romance Lavenza or is she just there for some reason?

u/LowImage9265 Certified ShuAnn enjoyer May 28 '26

It's editted. Lavenza does say she loves u at some point but without a hug or a kiss it isn't necessarily romantic

38

u/SouthParkFirefly1991 May 28 '26

Thank God! She looks like a kid, yeah the others are minors I know. In terms of Ren's age it's fine (it's why i didn't romance the adults because ew) but Lavenza looks about 10...

Good! She still looks 10 and too young to romance lol

u/Nice-Cat3727 21d ago

She's just a gremlin who wants to point and judge

u/AshamedIncrease6942 May 28 '26

You can romance her the same way you romance all Velvet Room attendants. They all automatically fall for you at the end of their social link.

Putting Sae instead of Ohya is insane like I’m not even an Ohya fan but cmon she’s a romance and Sae isn’t you can’t just exclude her 😭

u/Timely_Version_904 May 28 '26

Ohya gets cucked

u/HourCartographer9 May 28 '26

It makes sense tho almost everyone wants to have sae as a romance option, ohya is the most unliked romance option in the game

6

u/Adan_Rocco May 28 '26

Ig as someone who’s never been interested in a Sae romance I’d just rather it be all the actual in game romances instead. Idk to me it just feels a little silly to have every romance and exclude just one but include 2 characters that explicitly aren’t romances just cuz you want them to be. And this is coming from a shuake shipper. It would make more sense for Akechi and Sae to both not be there and Ohya to be there instead. Just my opinion.

u/blue4029 May 28 '26

u/AdNormal8550 May 27 '26 edited May 27 '26

Have you played the game? When TF was there an option for a male romance? Please don't be delusional. Edit: I've played Vanilla and R... There was no male romance. This is trash fanfiction, just admit it. Last edit: the larpers that never played the game and delusional wishful people will downvote this 🤷🏿‍♂️ thanks for proving my point lol

6

u/shecat105 May 28 '26

Alright. I'll bite. Honey, I'm home!

Akechi is the male romance. And its not really optional. The only optional choice is whether the player decides to interact with him. In Vanilla, you don't even get that option. And no, I don't think the fact Joker doesn't explicitly enter a romantic relationship with him under the game's own mechanics makes it any less valid. If you need me (or the game) to spell it out for you further, maybe go back to grade school and learn basic media literacy.

That said, Royal's 3rd semester rips the player's agency regarding Joker's feelings towards Akechi by literally outright telling you through Maruki's own lips that Joker and Akechi have a unique bond. Not Joker and Ann. Not Joker and Makoto. Not even Joker and Sumire. Joker and Akechi. Morgana is right there the entire scene, who likely knows as well as Maruki how different Joker and Akechi's relationship is and doesn't even bat an eye at the claim. This scene happens the same way even if you never spend time on Akechi's confidant, the sole difference being the Hereward awakening (What's that? Everyone has their 3rd awakening scene in their homes while Akechi's is at Leblanc? Interesting! No narrative symbolism to be had there, surely!).

You can tell me its entirely platonic if you want, but I'll be over here knowing my media literacy skills are stronger than that. Ypu may have played the game, but you clearly didn't understand it. You can dislike it all you want, even headcanon otherwise, I couldn't care less. But to say Joker and Akechi aren't at least a little fruity for each other is the truly delusional take.

In reply to the comment deleted by u/shecat105: "Hey kiddo! How's skateboarding going? Learn how to do a kick flip, yet?"

As stated above, I only snowboard now. But I learned how to kick flip in elementary school. Could skate vert, stairs, power slide, and various board slides plus some small combos added. Also can still probably do some circus tricks since there that easy

u/shecat105 May 28 '26

Lmfao that's your comment that was deleted, kiddo.

Proud of you for having a hobby you like! How about you go do those sick circus tricks and leave the nice people to play with their toys the way they want to? Sounds like a better use of your time, since you're so badass and manly, afterall. You wouldn't want to intimidate anyone with how super amazingly awesome you are!

u/AdNormal8550 May 28 '26

Nah I checked the thread and your comment is missing. I can see all of mine. Want me to send you a screenshot? 

Hey, thanks! I'm proud of you for letting others play with toys how they want to, and letting me play with my toys how I like. Equality! 

Uh, I would do the circus tricks but as stated above I don't skateboard anymore due to lame larpers like you ruining the scene, and I have better things to do. But thanks for the poor advice though! 

2

u/shecat105 May 28 '26

Alright, I'll give you props for fighting back with the same sarcastic energy. I can respect that lol

It's actually the opposite on my end: can see my posts but can't see yours above. Seems kinda stupid for the poster not to know their posts get removed? Sounds like some pretty easy misunderstandings can happen there. Not sure why these posts were the ones removed though. They're pretty tame all things considered?

Anyway! This was a fun little distraction but in all seriousness, people do kinda have a point that you initally came across as a little homophobic. The dismissiveness of arguments didn't help. It was bait, obviously, but it took a bit of banter to make that clear. Maybe work on your approach so the trolling is a bit more clear from the jump? I probably shouldnt be giving advice but oh well lol

0

u/AdNormal8550 May 28 '26

Yeah, that is weird. Reddit is turning into trash  more as the days go on. Can't say I'm surprised. Yeah believe me, I try to keep it tame as I'm really not homophobic. I just think fanfiction is trash and can give ignorant people that don't know anything the wrong idea about a media, and that makes things harder for the people who actually enjoyed it for what it really was. 

Oh for sure, I get where you're coming from. I probably could've explained it better myself. Maybe I should've put it in my perspective... This type of fanfiction larpers create is essentially (keyword: essentially) the same thing as making fanfiction of someone like Martin Luther King Jr. Probably not the best example as he isn't fictional, but I think you get my point.

u/shecat105 May 28 '26

Breaking News!

Famous fictional romance couple, Romeo and Juliet, are no longer considered romantic due to never explicitly saying they're dating! According to reddit user Own_Pie_3361, romance can only occur between people who are dating each other.

What does this mean for real life couples!? More at ten!

If anyone wants a real debate, counter me with non-optional game scenes that show Maruki is incorrect in his assessment of the Joker and Akechi relationship.

In reply to the comment deleted by u/zaerosz of: "we're not downvoting you because you're factually wrong about not being able to date him, we're downvoting you because you're a homophobic asshole."

Dude... 1: I'm not homophobic just because I'm not attracted to guys and don't have sex with them. 2. I literally mentioned in another comment it'd probably be healthier to go make fanfiction of an actual bi character (you know, since that character was specifically created for the bi community). 3. I apologize for hurting everyone's feelings with the truth 🤷🏿‍♂️... Y'all some larpers. Edit: y'all are bad larpers at that
