As of ch8:This story is pretty interesting and I keep coming back to reread it.So far the plot is just the MC and ML playing the game for their own respective reasons. The POV switches between the two and you see that although the both of them think that the other is a game character they're slowly getting interested in each other. It's not exactly love, but more of a fondness. The MC thinks the ML is cute and wants to protect the furry lil guy, and the ML thinks that, because the MC is his "exclusive lover", only the MC will be kind to him and give him love, even if that kindness and love was set by the game developers. He likes it even if it's fake because it's his first time being treated like he's precious, though this leads to a bit of dissatisfaction when the being that should be his shows consideration for anyone else, which the MC obviously does because he's a real person. I'm not gonna lie though; this is depressing AF at times. The Author MC thought he was in for a love game that would give him some help with his latest book, but ended up playing one of the characters who assists with illegal experimentation on orphaned children. He tries his best to soothe the kids within the limits of what the game will allow. The Male God ML is pessimistic and defensive, and the only reason he's playing the game is because he wants to know how it ended up on his personal computer in the first place and why its contents are about his past. He keeps at it even though it's triggering his illness and causing him pain.Prepare for cuteness and heart pain. 'Tis bittersweet.
