As the first player invited to beta-test a superhero romance RPG, Amiste opened the map. Iron Man, Captain America, Batman, the leader of the X-Men, and a host of other superheroes all had vivid red triangles hovering over their heads.
Uh...
It's fine, it's fine. No big deal!
...Wait, wait, wait! Items locked, map incomplete, save point in Arkham... It's just a romance game, so how did the friendly neighborhood New Yorker end up dragging me to the police station, making me a target of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s pursuit and a permanent resident of the Raft?
As every superhero's affection score kept dropping, Amiste was headed straight for the total annihilation ending with no turning back...

[Full-spoiler version]
This superhero world is on the brink of disaster. To keep the game running as intended, the company Asparagus sends out its top programmer, Number 63.
63: Ami! Let's win over that tin can together!
Ami: Let me deal with that Red Skull first!
63: Ami! Let's save that little Supes!
Ami: Step one to saving Supes: take down the Joker! Charge!
When a combat specialist switches careers midstream to pursue romance, and runs into a seasoned player in love from the start... Wait, you want to turn the tables and win me over?
Amiste: Aww, thanks, Bat-daddy! More perks, please~
(That spoiler spoiled absolutely nothing.)
Before you read:
(1) The protagonist is not a universal heartthrob.
(2) Batman is the love interest. This isn't a pick-your-favorite story~
(3) Two updates a week, with extra updates on holidays and whenever I feel like it.
Comments, favorites, and interaction are all welcome. Mwah mwah mwah
