New BL VN, To Have and to Hold, out on Steam!

Hello everybody! \o/ Just writing a quick update to let you know that I've released a new VN about Yuel and Tavi, To Have and to Hold, on Steam. Wow, how exciting! This VN is free, and it's relatively short. It takes place in the modern day, a little like UIL, but Yuel and Tavi are both a bit older in this one, and Yuel is more jaded and world-weary. He is very tired (and also pretty busted), I think it's very #relatable. You can check it out here if you're interested! https://store.steampowered.com/app/2513080 If you enjoyed UIL and you want to read more about the same characters, this might be fun to check out! And I also released an r18 VN about my boys set in a pseudo-Arabian fantasy universe, All Idleness and Ephemera. This one's been out on Steam for a while, but I'll drop a link to it anyway. You can find this here! https://store.steampowered.com/app/2025720 I hope you enjoy them if you do choose to check them out! Thank you so much to everybody who's left a review or given me feedback on anything involving these two characters. I love writing about my babies (hence why I have written so much about them lmao) and seeing people give them a chance is very heart-warming! - ebi x

Yuel’s life is stagnating. He’s twenty-one years old, in his third and final year of university, but his interest in his subject is waning and he doesn’t have any friends to confide in. His days are dull and uninteresting, and he longs for something to break up the monotony of his unremarkable routine – at least, until his father dies.

Unsure of how to cope with this news, Yuel’s mental health collapses. Not knowing who to turn to during such a tumultuous time, he eventually decides to ask his cool and competent older cousin, Tavi, for help.

Tavi is effortlessly cheerful where Yuel is awkwardly withdrawn; outgoing and confident where Yuel is shy and self-conscious; flippant and irreverent where Yuel is stern and serious.

Tavi takes it upon himself, after seeing the state of his younger cousin, to cheer Yuel up to the best of his abilities. Yuel, however, is unaccustomed to kindness, and his feelings for Tavi soon become startlingly sensuous.

Yuel’s life is hard enough as it is, what with his turbulent childhood, his non-existent social life, and now his father’s sudden death, but this pushes things to a tipping point. What in the world is he going to do now, after falling in love with his own older cousin?

Please note: The characters in this story originally appear in my other visual novel, All Ashes and Illusions, but no knowledge of Ashes is required to understand this story: it takes place in a separate universe and is stand-alone.

This story also depicts a consensual romantic relationship between a pair of first cousins. You might want to steer clear of this story if this subject matter would perturb you.
