Yep. It's Aoi's purpose.

[bachelorbored]

So, any electric charge?

[gamerbrain]

[ hmm. she shakes her head. ]

Aoi just exists to collect CGs. But the zappy from an outlet can help Aoi out sometimes. Give Aoi a little bit of energy.

[bachelorbored]

What's a CG?

[gamerbrain]

Event art. It unlocks when you experience a special moment.

[bachelorbored]

What... makes an event special enough for limited-edition art?

[gamerbrain]

It varies.

There are usually some early-game CGs to establish a character's charm. Later on they could be for any impactful moments. Without the game script, Aoi can't tell.

[bachelorbored]

So, you don't know if we've already had one or not without the... script?

[???

he's treading water but drowning all the same]

[gamerbrain]

No, Aoi can tell when Aoi unlocks one.

But usually Aoi has the script, and knows in advance which CGs exist and how to get to them.

[bachelorbored]

Have you... unlocked any so far?

[gamerbrain]

Yep.

[bachelorbored]

Oh. That's cool.

What do they look like?

[gamerbrain]

They look like... The moment that Aoi unlocked them.

[bachelorbored]

So, just like a... a memory, basically?

[he's grasping at straws here]

You don't get anything beyond that? A photo, a USB stick...?

[gamerbrain]

Aoi isn't unlocking them for Aoi. Aoi is unlocking them on behalf of God.

[bachelorbored]

Wait! For god?!

I thought this was for you!

[gamerbrain]

Aoi is an Avatar of the God of all Visual Novel Heroines. So Aoi collects CGs for God.

[bachelorbored]

Woah!

Doesn't that... kind of make you an angel?!

[gamerbrain]

Nope.

[bachelorbored]

So... what, then?

[gamerbrain]

Aoi is an Avatar of the God of all Visual Novel Heroines.

That's all.

[bachelorbored]

That still seems super important!

[gamerbrain]

... Maybe.

[bachelorbored]

Maybe? Definitely! You talk to god!

You're like... the pope, minimum!

[gamerbrain]

Aoi isn't like the pope at all.
