Pace
Everyone is welcome to read at their own pace and post any impressions, theories, or questions at any time within this thread. Those of us starting together may loosely informally stick together, but please feel free to chime in any time!
Guidelines
- Please use spoiler tags or collapse where needed and describe, indirectly, what point in the chapter they are a spoiler for!
- When asking for help, do your best to provide context. Pasted text, screenshots, descriptions, etc. Unlike book clubs we can’t flip to relevant pages, so we may need a little help identifying exactly what is being discussed.
- Feel totally at ease to ask questions or give your thoughts, any time! Clubs live and die by participation, and asking whatever question you have, no matter how silly it may seem, helps others who are reading it and even the answerer themselves.
- Have fun, and do your best to interpret anything said with as much good faith as possible

I think I hit a point where it’s hard for me to control my pace to stay in line with others, because I just am that hooked. Just finished door 5 yesterday…

Glad you’re enjoying it! I’ll try to get the next thread up in a bit – slowing down even more cause I got a Switch 2 yesterday with its launch

Enjoy the new switch!
Although I heard the games for it are seriously expensive, make sure you’ve got money left to eat lol.

It’s ice soup for me from now on! Luckily I’m working on losing a little weight right now too so that works out 
Been at least for now turning my attention back to Fata Morgana, working on things that I can finish in a reasonable time to reduce what I’m doing, and as much as I’m still going to take a while here I think this is the shortest thing I’m doing now.
God this is a big one (spoilers)
I mean not crazy out of the ordinary size-wise but I feel like so much has happened.
I feel so horrible for Giselle with all the dark stuff in this one, repeated sexual assault and PTSD following that. The VN does a good job of showing how that haunts her afterwards. Harrowing stuff.
It feels hard still to come up with what I want to say with it, for me it all more or less lands how it’s trying to – Michel really is a paranoid ass for a while, but then their relationship building is sweet, with a lot of traumatic stuff in between and seeing it almost immediately ripped back away. Can’t have anything nice in the house of fata morgana. Until that happens it’s nice seeing them together as two people so mistreated by the rest of the world. Once again this is loaded with problems caused by people not properly communicating and trusting, literal and figurative witch hunts, love stories happening amidst the depths of a lot of the worst of humanity’s cruelty.
The stories are still kinda flowing together at this point so it doesn’t as nicely split itself like the first 3 doors.
This little village backdrop is so pretty. There’s some of the best music throughout this door, too.
Time to brace myself for more
