(First draft, watch this space for revisions! Updates daily or better!) I was sent into the video game to replace the main character just to amuse the goddess. I refused. My lack of cooperation has made me even more interesting. The first of many tactical blunders. Now I'm the unscripted twin sister in the dating sim, with game-breaking powers and knowledge of the future. But I'm not scripted as an [Ally], instead I'm listed as a [Rival]. She can't force me to betray my brother, can she? Winner October 2025 Writathon! Content warnings before chapters when appropriate. Otome isekai deconstruction. Inspired by the genre. VN romance tropes are the backdrop and framework for faction-building, power struggles, dungeon-questing, revenge plots, complex characterization and the secrets that will save or doom their world.
