honestly I just want the master to hear about his nightmares and uncomfortable bed and offer to share the Master's bed and to see Asterion's reaction to such a suggestion of the Master sharing his bed with his servant. I want to see what kind of touching and shenanigans might happen under those covers. Physical contact will become part of their daily lives. A scratch on the back of the neck or fondling his long bovine ears, during a hug the Master buries his nose into the bull's neckfur and likes sniffing his scent, a kiss on the side of his jaw, all these things could send shivers down Asterion's spine. Eventually after a particular event that results in him being covered in a mess master wants to help scrub him down in the shower and gets to explore his body more. This new reality for Asterion of physical intimacy with his master should unfold one step at a time that allows him to slowly feel comfortable with the idea, but eventually realizing the master wants to have this physical contact and looks upon this bull as beautiful and desirable. And not just because he's covered in muscles and strong enough to lift and carry the master during certain physically intimate activities, but because the master has genuine love for him and mind spirit and soul. After all he's been through through thousands of years for him to finally be in the arms of a master who wants to cling onto Asterion and not let go, who despite not needing this half human half bull to accomplish things and spawn diamonds in his hand wants to be closer to his servant and who even sees this bull as a beautiful creature to make love to without the influence of altered vision from the gods like what happened to his mother, it should make Asterion feel like his heart is beating for the first time in centuries and turn him into a sobbing mess. It should be something beautiful and heart wrenching, which will involve plenty of hugging followed by touching and kissing and then maybe some exploratory sexy times can occur that night or in the morning depending on player choice. This would be the most realistic transition from their current relationship to a romantic relationship with regards to Asterion's past, and it would definitely make me cry for hours. I would very much like to see this be the path that plays out.

I wanted to cry while reading your pole, I would love to see it happen too, this really would be a kind and perfect path, my chest warmed with your words, I want to see it happen too, if that was final decision ... Asterion deserves the best of everything... If it ends up not happening that way, I would love to read a version of you writing in more detail, sure would make me cry like a little baby too
I mean with the ban on dating guests then who else has he been able to date for the last how many hundreds of years? The master? Typically women were not in positions of power very often more than a hundred years ago, so chances are most of the past hotels owners were men, maybe a few anthros as well? With homosexuality being more welcome now than it was back then the chances of Asterion dating a male Hotel owner had to have been slim to none. And he commonly refers to himself as a beast, as an abomination. For the owner of the hotel, a human owner, to lust after his physical form has to be unthinkable to him. I kind of want to see how he reacts to the furry community, that would be awkward and hilarious. Seriously though, this guy has never been seen as a treasure, and every night he goes to bed lonely. That first night of him sleeping in the Master's bed with the master snuggled up in his and happy to be there, the kind of thoughts that will be going through Asterion's soul & heart will be a war of doubt versus hope. I know I'll be hugging my pillow & weeping that night after reading that.
oh, a response from the dev!

Okay I've been thinking, Asterion is worried about his future, but the hotel owner could alleviate Asterion's worries by signing a contract with Luke or Kota (since they already know about Asterion's past) that if the hotel owner dies the ownership of the hotel will automatically be passed on to one of them. Like a minotaur support group of sorts. Luke would leap at the chance to be with Asterion but Kota being a dragon who has lived centuries has centuries more to live which would help alleviate Asterion's worries about the future. Maybe the ownership of the hotel can be shared between two parties? So if one dies the hotel will still be in good hands, or talons or claws or whatever.
what else? *shuffles index cards*
Ok, so psychology & PTSD as a science was not very well developed in World War II and was only beginning to be studied, so Asterion is in desperate need of psychological therapy. The hotel owner & the two guests who know of Asterion's past could start a group with Asterion to share with each other about their own pasts & emotional issues. It could really help Asterion to open up & share what's been in his mind & heart. I could see a lot of tears being shed at these meetings, not just by Asterion, the other guests have problems as well they need to work through. & maybe more guests can be invited in as well, some of them rather reluctantly at first.

Greta went on & on about what scientific breakthroughs could be made at the hotel with access to unlimited resources. I'm talking expensive materials or rare materials or materials that are just difficult to manufacture or isolate. We've gone through the Green Revolution and we're now entering the Blue Revolution of ocean farming and the possibility of seaweed replacing plastic. We're talking about new battery technologies that will change the world and make countries not reliant on certain countries that export oil. There's serious biochemistry going on that has never been done before, some scientists in San Diego have turned kelp into oil, which could mean any country can make new oil for their cars & new cures for cancer being researched. We're examining new ways to enter space using new materials and new inventions, even research into a space elevator wouldn't be off the table. If the hotel can modify itself to include more rooms or new structures, a college of sorts could be established for research & development. Some guests at the hotal are super smart but can't afford an expensive lab to do research in, but the hotel can make things & people can build new lab equipment if they know how (or can look-up blueprints online). The hotel is a place of healing for it's guests, but it would do Asterion well to see the hotel helping make the outside world better with new research & inventions.

& speaking of how the hotel helps Asterion, it seems to be the primary source of his self worth. Asterion has zero self-esteem & prioritizes the hotel as the only motive to continue life. He needs to know that he is valued, not as a servant or a source of information, but as an individual. As a fellow traveler on this journey of life, that he is worth more to the hotel owner than the hotel itself. Sure the owner choose to wear the band on his arm but the workers were threatening to strike if he didn't, which could cause some doubt to start to creep in for Asterion. Basically the hotel owner needs to have a genuine sit-down heart to heart with Asterion that the reason he even decided to stay at the hotel in the first place was to help the Minotaur he'd just met, & if he ever had to choose between saving the hotel or saving Asterion, he'd choose to save Asterion. The hotel can be rebuilt to be exactly what it was before receiving any damage at all, but while Asterion is able to physically heal from any physical damage he will always carry the damage done to his heart & soul. To betray Asterion's trust would be to lose his heart & hurt him in a way he can't heal from. But the hotel is just a building, it has no soul. Asterion is the hotel's keeper, Asterion is the hotel's soul. The hotel cannot heal souls, only other souls can heal souls(or maybe meditation or nature idk I'm not a psychologist). & while the hotel does give a sense of purpose, Asterion is the soul who drives this hotel owner forward. Other owners have focused on the hotel, but this owner is focused on Asterion. This owner helps the hotel because having guests at the hotel helps Asterion. Healing Asterion's soul is the primary goal of this particular hotel owner, & Asterion is having trouble seeing that. There will come a time when the hotel owner will have to be blunt & tell Asterion "Look I care more about you then about any of this. I want to be here for you. Not to leave you alone & let you be. I don't want you to be alone, to feel alone despite being surrounded by guests. I want help you. I don't want the hotel, it's yours. I want you to have something that makes you happy. You're my focus. You're why I decided to live here in this hotel, not because you promised diamonds. Fuck diamonds!"*grabs the bulls hand*"I want you to be okay. I want to heal you. Not through wine, but to heal you inside. Your mind. Your heart. Your soul. You are who i care about. You're what matters most to me."*maybe follow this up with a hug or something idk*

sorry about the wall of text but i had a lot to get out
I'm sorry I haven't posted in so long, but I'm back now. I feel like I should explain what happened. So last year I went to watch a movie at the theater, and shut off my phone so it wouldn't be a distraction. Well after the movie when I turned my phone back on it decided that the memory was corrupt and the only solution was to wipe the memory from the phone to restore it back to factory settings. After a day of trying to find a solution on the internet with my laptop and not finding any solutions I was forced to reset my phone. So all the progress I'd made in Minotaur Hotel was gone. And I didn't pick it back up again until recently because at first I was a bit dejected and didn't have the motivation to start over from scratch and I started and got caught up in some other visual novels as well that have held my attention. I had just finished the Hinterlands part 1 and was introduced to the hotels office when I lost all my progress. But now I'm back at that point again and I have no idea what happens next in the story and I look forward to continuing it. So yeah, what happens next in the story is completely unknown to me and I'm rather excited for it. Don't spoil anything! As I read more of the story I'll dump some of my feelings into comments here, just how I feel and ideas for the future of the story and all that, so look forward to that. PS if the hotel gets a psychologist as a guest that can do a psychological assessment of asterion, don't tell me. And if that's not already in the story at this point, it would be a good idea to include in the story in the future. Just getting that idea out there so that maybe by the time I get caught up to where the story is now it will already be well on the way, or maybe already in a new update when I get there:) PPS as for horny ideas for asterion, it would be interesting for the hotels master to ask asterion to dominate him in bed. Asterion is so used to being a servant that it would be new and different to be the one in charge. Exclusively in their shared apartment, of course. Not to mention being serviced, or the body worship with those big muscles. Oh what fun. PPPS asterion needs more hugs!
