Drimare Universe Friendsim: Volume One

Drimare Universe Friendsim: Volume One, entitled "Are Humans Into Fashion" is the first instalment of the visual novel Drimare Universe Friendsim.
It focuses primarily on the character of Zelly, who greets the player when they are first introduced into the dream world.
== Plot ==
"You", the protag character, later nicknamed "Dreamer" wakes up in the dream world in a forest-like setting. They do not know it's a dream, and simply contemplate how they seem to lack any memories of who they are.
* Their contemplation is interrupted by the Drimare girl Zelly showing up and greeting them. She enquires if this is Dreamer's first time in a dream and expresses excitement to be meeting an actual human.
* She invites the player to get out of the woods to visit the nearby village she lives in with her brother, implying she left him on store duty while she's on a break.
** If the player rejects her invitation in order to keep exploring by themselves, Zelly will appear disappointed but understanding. Dreamer will then keep walking on the woods by themselves. They will proceed to get lost and chased by an unseen nightmare monster, which will result in them waking up, and the first bad ending screen. Just a Dream...
** If the player accepts Zelly's invitation, they will follow her out of the woods and into the village, where she will then inquire Dreamer about Humans' opinions on fashion. Dreamer reminds Zelly about her previously mentioned store duties and she takes them into the store, a sewing workshop, when Zelly reveals that she actually works as a seamstress and likes designing her own clothes.
** Zelly will then present a mannequin wearing a work in progress shawl, which appears extremely overdone and with mismatched colours. Zelly appears to show excitement in showing it and asks for Dreamer's opinion of it.
*** If the player attempts to compliment it, Zelly will sense that the Dreamer isn't being honest and is just complimenting it to try and be nice. This causes her to become uncomfortable and self-conscious of her work, leading her to scrap it and asking the Dreamer to leave, leading to the second bad ending screen. Self-Conscious...
*** If the player tells her that it looks like a mess, they will proceed to give a comically detailed criticism to her work, to which Zelly will express excitement and agrees to take Dreamer's advice. Dreamer will casually comment that they can't imagine anyone feeling comfortable wearing that, which leads Zelly to tell them to model it for her.
**** When Dreamer asks if they have a choice on the matter, Zelly jokingly tells them that they do not.
***** Zelly begins to gather sewing supplies but mentions that she left some thread in her room and leaves to go grab it. The Dreamer waits patiently by themselves, before noticing there is someone else in the room with them.
*****Blade is sitting by the counter, appearing distracted with knitting a scarf, but once he notices Dreamer staring at him, he gets startled and asks what is wrong with their face. Dreamer says they're a Human, to which Blade is sceptical about. Zelly then returns, asking Blade if he was being mean to customers again. He jokes about it and she dismisses him. Zelly apologizes on his behalf when he leaves and soon both she and the Dreamer get to work on fixing the shawl.
***** As she works, her scarf seems to gain a life of its own, creating strings which help stitch the shawl together. She appears distracted but the Dreamer gets scared by the scarf. Once she notices their reaction, she apologizes and puts the scarf down. Dreamer says they're scared but also impressed that all of this is really just a dream and none of it is actually real. Zelly simply laughs and explains that the dream world doesn't stop existing when Humans wake up.
***** She keeps working and then asks the Dreamer if they're going to visit again in their next dream, by this time, the shawl has been fixed to be less cluttered and Dreamer admires the work. Zelly thanks them for helping her, and let's them keep it as a gift, jokingly wondering if they'll bring it with them into the waking world.
***** After this, Zelly invites them into hanging out for a while, celebrating their new friendship, leading the player to the Good Ending. PARTY!

== Trivia ==
* In earlier versions of this volume, Zelly actually had voice clips playing during her lines, which were taken straight from Tiny Tina's voice lines, who is her voice claim. This was scrapped earlier on, due to lack of fitting sounds as well as copyright issues.
