Hey everyone, Layman here! I normally don't do chapters like this, but given the nature of this particular story it seemed like a good idea.

So anyway, I'm sure by you have a pretty decent idea of what's in store for Knight of Conquests; Jaune is going to try and get a girlfriend with the help of everyone's favorite Love Fairy, Kyu from HuniePop. (For those who haven't played or don't know what HuniePop is, it's a Kickstarter funded dating sim/Bejewled clone, in which you, the player- you can choose Male or Female when starting a new game, but it ultimately doesn't have any effect outside of a couple different dialogue bits at most -goes around dating several different women, ultimately culminating in a night of passion with each of them. It's a pretty unsubtle game, and as such it's been banned from Twitch streams.)

Now, I could just write Jaune's Misadventures in Dating His Friends and Peers myself, but because of HuniePop's choice heavy nature, I decided to do something a little different. That being the Reader Choice aspect that's been hinted at in the story itself. So there actually is a poll on my profile related to this story, which will be up for a week and then get refreshed with every new chapter, with one less option each time until all the characters have been introduced. Once that happens, the poll will be refreshed will all the available characters, save for the last girl Jaune dated. It lets everyone who takes an interest in this little experiment will get a sense of investment, and I'll be kept on my toes as a writer. Granted, I'm going to end this in a very specific way, but the journey there is half the fun, and I want this to be unique, so go vote on the Poll while it's up!

As for the story itself, there won't be any smut, first and foremost; smut is not the goal of KnoC, so the rating will stay firmly where it is. (This story would probably actually be K+ if Kyu weren't in it.) Also, "Kyu's Naughty Confessions blog })i({" will pretty much function as the Author's Notes for the duration, as well as an AMA type thing. (Honestly, roleplaying as the snarky Love Fairy is pretty fun, especially given the referential and meta nature of some of her game dialogue.) If you have something you want to ask "Kyu", or just want an observation of yours to be featured on Kyu's "blog", indicate so in a review or PM.

For the moment, that's all I can think of. I'll get to work on the next chapter of KnoC once the Poll results are in, so make sure to keep voting! And like Kyu says, see you sexy people later!
