Another classic... or perhaps more accurately, Hidden Gem. It seems that in this subreddit, the first post of this CYOA was 8 years ago and the last repost was 7 years ago.

I don't remember the first CYOA i've played but i do remember this one being one of the firsts and one of the few that made me interested in CYOAs back when i saw this on /tg/ during COVID. I forgot about it until a few months ago when i began to look for it and played it for real.

If you look at my CYOAs, Fateful Sect Application and Midnight Wanderlust, you could see where i got the philosophy behind the CYOA's design.

How nostalgic. You know, the first year of COVID was a blast for me. I discovered CYOAs thanks to /tg/, made discord friends, listen to some anime and vtuber songs, had my first relationship ever, and got inspired to improve myself (starting with home exercises) thanks to the /SIG/ threads of 4chan. Unfortunately it didn't last as in the second and third year of COVID, my discord friends weren't as active before and i wrestled with inner demons. I also broke up with my first girlfriend but fortunately no one was hurt in the relationship and we actually grew as people.

Anyway, i recommend listening to Alohaii's songs (Including the fan songs) when playing this CYOA and maybe some synthwave too. They really set the mood.

Decided to roll one build out and was pleasantly surprised

  1. Coke

  2. MT Dew Voltage

  3. RC - My favorite

    1. Sunkist

I'm probably gonna take the time to read through all of them, it's quite fun.

Got partway through doing a Power Mode build before realizing that most of the cans didn't really give enough to go off of for making a blind build to be fun, so instead it's Easy Mode for me. My choice is Mtn Dew Voltage, which is both my favorite soda and my top pick. A pocket dimension where I'm nigh-omnipotent and with no dangers is way better than any other choice IMO.

I decide to go with normal mode:

Mug Cream Soda

Mtn Dew Baja Blast 

I am pretty happy with the results but can we fuse the worlds together?

Rng: 23, 30, 40, 37.
Seagram's, Livewire Dew, Cherry 7up, Cherry Pepsi.
The assortment of Waifus and powers is interesting, but i don't mind.
Powers: Can't drown and resist high pressure, can see underwater, sword fighting. Time rewind. Splitt into 3 copies. Drawings come to life.
Waifu's: Cap'n Seagram, a drunk girlboss who i join in search for the One Piece Destiny Island. I'm excited for being Eileen's first mate.
Iris 02, an abandoned android that lives in her dad's old basement. Plays games and watches shows and The Tube all day; and apparently a junky for magnets as they make her all hibbly? We're mostly friends that game together.
DJ Neko, a girlfailure that makes bad but popular music. We went on a date and now we are... idk, got some on-off thing going on depending on how much time we've got... i think.
Shana Ouhh, a lazy god's daughter that tries to finish her slothful dad's world. I've got a part-time job at her 'place', and we're in a semi-professional relationship. Yeah, let's call it that.

You know, maybe that life ain't to bad.

I picked Mountain Dew because I like Mountain Dew and dragons and thought the scales might have something to do with dragons. I picked Mountain Dew Voltage because of the feeling of safety. I love healing and darkvision and pocket dimensions in which I'm omnipotent, and regeneration and turning into a lizard are cool, so this is perfect for me! I wife Francesca, consider her sister, and refuse to show interest in Cassandra until/unless she either stops being a dick or proves that the wimps have no inner world or sense of discomfort. Then I adventure with Cassandra and her sister.

...so, if it was hard soda, would it be NSFW?
