This blog contains an archive of royalquintet's works.

Please read the guidelines below before proceeding:

[2022.8.19] Everything has been made public. My general guidelines remain the same.

[2022.12.11] Added guideline on AI.

[2023.2.7] Adjusted guideline on quote bots. Added guideline on translation usage.

[2024.11.15] Adjusted wording on quote bots rule and masterlist rule.

Rules

1. Do not repost my works in full anywhere, under any circumstances, even with credit, even if the post was once on the wiki.

2. My fan-related efforts here or anywhere are never for profit and I do not accept any monetary offerings for them.

3. Quote bots may use lines from my works. You don't have to credit me for them. Please only use lines and not full chapters. If you make personal posts on bots as well (like it's half bot half interactions), please remove my work from your bot as I don't want any of my work to be associated with any particular individuals.

4. You may link to this blog when sharing with friends and in your personal masterlists. However, if you want to link my blog, I ask that you keep your masterlists in a private space and do not host them on some special central website or anything like that. (Note: I have given explicit permission for only my ! era stuff to be linked on this masterlist.)

5. Taking and sharing screencaps is OK, as long as the caps do not contain the entire story.

6. Other language tls are OK, as long as you notify me beforehand.

7. Do not under any circumstances use my translations to train AI.

8. If you want to use my translations for some fan project including lyrics videos, fan events, artworks, podcasts, etc. please feel free! You don't have to ask beforehand, but please credit me as "royalquintet" if you can. Please remember that my tls are not for profit, so I ask that you do not make fanworks with my translations for profit either.

These rules are in place for my own comfort and safety. If I notice anyone disrespecting them, I may take down my works without notice.

Extra Notes:

- You might be expecting me to add images to every entry, but it would take me far too much time to do this for all my past posts. However, I do encourage you to read my works alongside the game for the visuals and sounds! Please support the game if you're a fan so we can continue to have content for years to come!

- In my earlier works, I was conservative in my approach, whereas my later works tend to have a more localized flair. If something in my style doesn't sit right with you, remember: no one is stopping you from making your own TLs too! However, if I really did make an objective mistranslation or something, feel free to let me know.

- To view my journal in the default skin instead of my journal style (in case you have readability issues), go to Account Settings > Display > Entry Pages: Shown To You > "Site skin" in the dropdown menu. Default skin restored!

- I'm very tired and busy and may not respond to messages, but positive messages are wholeheartedly welcome ♥
