Hence the "somehow". Maybe I'd tell her her boss from the Shanghai is up there and wants a meeting ASAP or she's fired.
Cruel, yet effective. You're cold, Potato. I like that. A man's gotta be cold in today's world.

It would amuse me greatly to see Hisao (or somebody) set things up in order to get Yuuko and Kenji back together only to find out that they don't even know each other. They were both talking about different people.

I cannot even fathom Yuuko being in Kenji's presence for more than three minutes without going crazy or dying.

I know. I've never understood the logic behind people shipping a couple so fundamentally incompatible. :p

Aside from the hints that they were a couple...

The hints always seemed like a bit of a stretch TBH; I never even considered that they were (supposedly) implied to have been a couple until I started lurking on the forums, and I still don't really see the chemistry.

Perhaps, the effect it'd have on Yuuko would be that she'd be so initially petrified and freaked out about it that she can't be anxious or anything about it from that point onwards. It's similar to when someone who's scared of spiders is subjected to them to the point that they don't bother them anymore. There's a word for it, can't remember what it is.

That's because they were a couple. As in, not anymore. As in, the chemistry's been fucked. :lol: You're looking for two people who are compatible and have chemistry. These two aren't and don't, which is exactly why they're not together anymore.

I think they could have a very healthy and fruitful relationship if Yuuko never, for one moment, took anything Kenji said the slightest bit seriously.

Would that be healthy then?

I feel like the reason I like them as a couple is that they're both messed up, but at the end of the day if they cared about each other, it wouldn't really matter. They don't need to fix each other, they need to like each other, and ignoring each other isn't the same thing.

I'd bring the Katawa Shoujo Achievements thread if Cook didn't break it. :(

Questioning mod decisions so directly is...unwise. :p

Re: Yuuko & Kenji - I suppose we'll have to agree to disagree on that one. I dunno. The ship never felt natural to me.

Fair enough.

And really, without going too far into this, I think it was less "Cook breaking" anything and more "holy crap forced animal sex is starting to look normal here" that made it already broken.

No. I was being ironic. :lol:

Oh, okay. For some reason I couldn't tell there.
