Apartment No.9 - BxG Version
LostSeaMonkeyVa for Rue
About Rue:
Rue is the protagonist of the game. He is a primary school teacher in his mid-late twenties who longs to become a professional writer. His girlfriend, Akuji, is the sunshine in his life, the only one who he can be truly comfortable around. Rue has a habit of turning to drink when life gets him down. He's fairly unsociable, down-to-earth, feisty, sarcastic, and a bit of a bookworm. Most of his days consist of endless marking, or more accurately, staring out of his apartment window at the homeless girl on the street.
"Do you have to keep doing that? I swear one day you're gonna forget to catch me, then I'll end up flat on my face, and you'll get a kick in the cooch!"
(Rue has gone to visit his girlfriend. When he puts his key in the door, she flings it open so that he falls into her arms. He's not truly annoyed at her, more just being playful, feigning irritation.)"It's not a fantasy, Aku! You know how much this means to me. I don't care if I have to live on the streets myself; this is what I want!"
(Rue is having an argument with his girlfriend. He feels like she isn't taking him seriously.)"We've been cut off. I'm sorry, Aku. I miss you so much – everything's going wrong."
(Rue is sobbing, having a breakdown after the power is switched off in his apartment. His girlfriend appears to comfort him.)
