I haven’t gotten this story yet thankfully, but that scene where MC is given the option to kiss back Sylvia’s boyfriend without his knowing or consent?
Smells like sexual assault to me. 
Not only that, but you still get the option to kiss him after he verbally acknowledges that MC is not his girlfriend. Whew.
Is it really sexual assault though, is the person you’re kissing is a soulless demon with no eyes or face? 
I haven’t read this story and don’t plan to - never read stories you want less of - but I saw screenshots of this scene and it sounds pretty nonconsensual any way you slice it.
If you’re pretending to be someone you’re not and engaging with a person? They can’t consent because they think you’re someone else. If you’re forcing a kiss on someone who just realized you aren’t their girlfriend? Definitely not consensual. There are real world terms for this and none of them good. 
I don’t think him being a soulless demon changes any of the circumstances. MC was given the option to kiss someone (whether they have a soul or not shouldn’t matter) who was under the wrong impression. That isn’t consensual, and you have to remember that children are reading these stories. They can’t easily process information that’s on the surface level and dissect it for context purposes. The way they see it is: manipulating the situation, pretending to be someone else (Sylvia) in order to force yourself on an unwilling partner. That isn’t good, no matter how you word it.
This is a good philosophy, and I urge everyone on this thread to do the same. They aren’t just beta testing stories because they want our opinions, but they also take note of how well the story does. The more reads we give it, the more they’ll believe we want more of it.
But can a creature of the abyss born of the blood of Cthulhu truly be taken advantage of… or was it all part of his master, Satan’s, grand plan?
I get that you’re just making a joke, but is it really appropriate to be doing this when the punchline involves sexual assault and is being made in response to someone’s concerns about lack of consent in featured stories? Not the time.
I’m a two times rape survivor and I’m still more concerned by the directing in that scene 
Don’t know what else to say
I’m really sorry you had that experience.
I’ve been through the same and I wouldn’t wish it on my worst enemy.
But just remember not everyone is going to have the same reaction to that kind of joke.
Yeah, that option and scene was ??? It shouldn’t had been an option especially twice. But I’m not surprised by Episode at all. They have a whole story glorifying/encouraging an ED on their app. I don’t know what the writers team is thinking half the time. 
Wow, I can buy a shirt irl for that much
Oh I forgot to mention: at a thrift store, I could probably get an outfit better than whatever the mc’s wearing for the gem choice for that much. Which is a strange thought to me.
I feel like I should make a thread on stuff you can buy for the price of a gem choice
Now I’m just scrolling through Amazon for anything that costs less than CAD$8.
Y’all gonna wear a virtual outfit that looks like you were dipped in glue and rolled around in loose change, ok. I’m getting myself Minion goggles that I can wear until it stops being funny, bye.
GO FOR MINION GOGGLES. PLEASE.
It’s better than an useless virtual dress 
I made the thread
Oof this was nine days ago and I’m still greatful. Thanks. 
Yes. Yes it is
I’m sorry but episode wtf were you thinking… literally no customization the freaking MC looks older than her mom and paler than a freaking vampire idk if this was just an accidental early release but if it wasn’t then fr episode like honestly even the dress looks shit. The plot is so bland. You literally go to college into a bathroom see a guy with a towel and he walks you to your dorm WITH HIS TOWEL ON. Then you frick frackety meet your formate who leads you into the dorm and all of the sudden your like boom customized. Then you go to the club and lowkey get drenched by a car and the dude won’t let you in cause your “ugly” then go to a freaking boutique and they give you some old ugly 50s dress. If this was an accidental release, then don’t actually release. Maybe you guys should stick to featuring stories. This is so cliche and I could write it in like 5 mins. Also who the hell is drake? All the MCs are freaking the same height. Then after the boutique somehow your just in a creepy alley 
this is awful awful awful
But u never know, maybe other people like it.
Plus it’s not episode who creates those stories, it’s other people
Nope it said “episode original story” 
I did more research then you think
