Note: If you've already played Bluebird's Illusion, or if you discovered the concept of the game in the "Introduction" section on the previous page, you'll understand that your choices have a major impact on how the game unfolds. Well, it's the same in the story you're about to read! Here, YOU are the hero of this story, and your choices will be crucial. Cause yeah, it's a choose-your-own-adventure fic! But to make informed decisions, I invite you to read the…


Rules of the Game


"Story" choices

During your reading, you'll encounter two types of choices. The first are the "story" choices – the hardest ones! You'll be given two options… one of which will be fatal. When this happens, you'll know, as a big "GAME OVER" will appear at the end of the option. If you manage to choose the correct option right away, you'll continue reading without trouble (and you can later find out how things could've gone wrong :p).

It's up to you to think carefully about the risks you're willing to take and analyze the situations the characters are facing. Be warned! Some choices might be trickier than others è.é After all, that's how life goes! There's sometimes an element of luck involved ~


"Ending" choices

The second type of choices you'll encounter are the "ending" choices. When you reach these, you'll be given two to four options to choose from (just as for the "story choices", having only two options is also possible, so... beware! You'll never know when your life is at risk or not, hehe!). None of these will be "bad". They simply lead to different endings. There are four in total, just like in the original game. Whether they're happy or not, these endings will determine how many characters you save, because that's the main goal of the story: will you side with the homunculi or the humans? Who will you save? And with what consequences? Think carefully about your words or actions (indicated in parentheses), as well as which characters you'll want to make your allies… or enemies.

Note: None of these choices will affect the main storyline; everything comes into play at the very end. Don't worry! The story will remain consistent as long as you stay consistent in your choices ;) Keep in mind, though, that you won't know in advance which choice leads to which ending(s) until you've read the entire fic. So, I strongly recommend keeping track of the numbers associated with your choices on a separate note for later reference. At the end of the fic, you'll find a results table that will tell you which ending you've unlocked. Of course, you can cheat and pick the ending you like the most, but I'd be curious to know which one you naturally got (some are easier to obtain than others ;)).

It's up to you to create your story! Depending on your choices, it's entirely possible to read four different fanfics (or even more!)

So, you can either read all the options at once each time a choice comes up, or play along until the end to keep the other optional paths a surprise for another read-through.


Preliminary warnings

Bluebird's Illusion is an action game, but it also features some shônen-ai. The same goes for my story, except here, it leans more toward yaoi than shônen-ai. Depending on the choices you make, you may unlock different scenes, including some with sexual content. If that's not your cup of tea, be cautious when making decisions! Likewise, the M rating also applies to violence: some GAME OVER scenarios will include a bit of bloodshed. Sensitive readers, beware.

Moments is an almost-complete fic, with around sixty chapters already. I don't know if I'll be able to translate all of them in English, but I'll try my best :) So, welcome in this wonderful adventure!
