Naofumi and Raphtalia decide to go on their own to prepare for the waves their own way, together. How long will they stay strong in a world that seemingly wants them to suffer? AU that diverges greatly from canon events. Lots of Naofumi/Raphtalia fluff to be expected, probably.

After being persuaded by his childhood friend Sayori, a teenage boy named Kazuma Odaka grudgingly decides to join the Doki Doki Literature Club. Soon, he finds himself falling in love with a certain pink-haired, manga-loving baker. Can he write the way into her heart?

In a world where Sayori's depression is untampered with by Monika (and where MC catches on just a little bit earlier), there is hope for them to find happiness together.
