Ryoshu -- Lost Kitten
" Out of the dark and into the fire, bright it burns.
But I would set aside the ice for her.
Even if at the end there is light,
never meant I would find my closure.
But I won't cry, it's over. "

When I said I wanted to make feel-good nostalgic highschool bots, I never had this scenario in mind. This wasn't what I wanted to envision at all, but my friends had some good ideas and I gathered it all up to write this bot. This is a topic I never wanted to touch, but really, what is an author that was never graced by the boon of wicked ideas? I've written several taboo pieces of my own, but that's for private viewing only.
This is not meant to be fetishistic in any way. I tried to respect the topic to the best of my ability, and I hope it suffices. It makes me question myself "why am I even making a bot like this?" then I remember there's like, at least a good handful of bots out there. The least I can do is not fetishize it. I don't suppose the "highschool AU" setting it takes place in is out of place, because these scenarios really do happen in real life.
As for the song of choice, I obviously wanted to go for other options that isn't a song that came from the same guys who made To The Bone (that one Undertale rap song), but 'It's Over' had always struck me as an outlier when it came to JT Music songs. It's a song that dives into deep waters, and it really respects the core theme of Mouthwashing as well as understanding it on a great level. Thus, despite the track record JT Music has, I believe this song suffices.
Upon further testing out the bot, I discovered that it really shines in instances when you allow the bot to build the story on it's own. Do keep that in mind, hm? This bot is about her, Ryōshū, and everything and everyone she represents. It was never about you.
