@stinebrunson.bsky.socialBeing a disgraced noble sucks but getting to go to a magic/science school with cuties is great!

@stinebrunson.bsky.socialSometimes the most difficult thing to do is to get to school without a bunch of cute idiots getting in your way.

@izumigames.bsky.socialHashiruka48 interviewed us for the #FallInLoveFestival on her Naver blog (a Korean platform)! I'm so glad to have discussed the inspiration behind Talents, especially since it's also heavily influenced by a Korean drama.
Check it out!

@norbezjones.bsky.socialFor my next #FallInLoveFestival review, I’m looking at VN demos! From moving across the sea, to taking the train to (a supposed) summer camp, to questioning reality in Florida—these games have it all!

![A hot pink banner for the first part of my Fall In Love Festival 2026 game reviews, containing complete games. On the left side is my (Bez’s) mascot character Dogwater, a cat alien who has black fur on his right side, and cream-colored fur on his left side. The inside of his ears are purple, as are the leaf-shaped antenna sticking out of his head. His face is a TV screen that is currently displaying a triangle split in half with the word “Norbez” written on it. Next to him is the logo for the festival, pastel with a shooting heart in the background, reading, “Fall In Love Visual Novel Festival: Presented by Studio Elan. September 1 – 9.” On the right of that are the logos of the games reviewed in my piece: Rottenroots (a white serif font logo covered in tangled roots), Night Shift: 1999 (a black & white DOS-style logo with fangs dripping with blood), Siren’s Call: Second Wind (the title is within a black hole, and surrounded by a blue spiral covered in black butterflies), Merry Crisis! (the first word is green, and the second mostly blue [there’s a gradient] and is in a happy, Christmas-y font), Of The Lilies (a white, all-caps serif font logo with the tangled lily vine on the L that goes below the final word, underlining the title), and Talents (the letters have a gradient that goes from purple to white, and the A is replaced by a video game controller).](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_fullsize/plain/did:plc:4qz6dscr6ujmddvgt2yogg76/bafkreica7phzyawne2lkwglxswo7rdvhn3r6uduhhbhwvnmeipbinkgy5y@jpeg)

@norbezjones.bsky.socialHey everyone, sorry for the delay in the 2nd #FallInLoveFestival piece--I had some serious shit go down and needed to take a few mental health days to myself. I'm doing mostly better now.
My goal is to post the piece today, so please look forward to that! <3
