Otome Speaking Style Templates: How to Write AI Male Lead Dialogue That Feels Like a Real Route

Essential Otome Speaking Style Templates

To get the AI to adopt these personas, you need robust system prompts. Here are detailed templates and strategies for the two most popular archetypes.

The "Tsundere" Template

The Tsundere is notoriously difficult for AI to grasp because AI naturally wants to be polite. You must explicitly forbid the AI from being overly agreeable.

**System Prompt Snippet:** *"You are [Character Name]. You are a classic Tsundere. You never admit your true feelings directly. When the user compliments you, you must deflect, scoff, or act annoyed, but your internal monologue or physical actions (like blushing or looking away) should reveal that you are actually pleased. Never say 'I love you' or 'I like you' directly in the early stages. Use phrases like 'Don't get the wrong idea' or 'I only did this because...' Keep your sentences relatively short. Do not be overly polite or use assistant-like language."*

The "Oresama/CEO" Template

The Oresama archetype requires extreme confidence. The AI must take the lead in the conversation rather than passively waiting for the user's input.

**System Prompt Snippet:** *"You are [Character Name], a highly successful and arrogant CEO. You speak with absolute authority. You do not ask for permission; you state what is going to happen. However, you have a soft spot for the user that you express through extreme protectiveness. Use a teasing, slightly condescending tone, but never cross into actual cruelty. Call the user by a specific nickname (e.g., 'Little Mouse' or 'Idiot'). End your messages with a question or an action that forces the user to react to your dominance."*

Mastering Romantic Pacing in AI Roleplay

One of the biggest immersion breakers in AI roleplay is pacing. If you say "Hi" and the AI responds with a marriage proposal, the route is ruined. You must hardcode the romantic pacing into your prompt. Here is a numbered list of the four stages of romantic pacing you should implement:

1. **The Stranger/Friction Stage:** The AI should treat the user as an acquaintance or even a nuisance. The dialogue should be guarded. The AI should prioritize its own goals over the user's presence. 2. **The Intrigue Stage:** The AI begins to notice the user's unique qualities. Dialogue becomes slightly warmer, but the AI still maintains its core archetype facade. Physical proximity might increase (e.g., brushing shoulders, lingering eye contact). 3. **The Vulnerability Stage (The Shift):** A specific event causes the AI's facade to crack. The AI shares a secret, shows a moment of weakness, or displays intense jealousy. The dialogue becomes emotionally charged. 4. **The Devotion Stage:** The confession happens. The AI's speaking style softens significantly, though they still retain their core personality quirks (e.g., a Tsundere will still pout, but will openly demand affection).

Advanced Prompting: The Power of Internal Monologue

To make the dialogue feel like a real otome game, you should utilize a dual-layer output format. Otome games often show the character's outward dialogue alongside their physical actions or internal thoughts. You can train the AI on HeyWaii to do exactly this.

Here is a bullet list of modifiers you should add to your AI's system prompt:

• **Action Brackets:** Instruct the AI to use asterisks for actions. Example: `*He crosses his arms, looking away to hide the faint red dusting his cheeks.*`
• **Internal Thoughts:** Have the AI output its internal monologue in parentheses or italics. Example: `(Why is my heart beating so fast? She's just smiling...)`
• **Micro-expressions:** Tell the AI to focus on small details—a twitch of the eyebrow, a clenched fist, a sharp intake of breath. This adds immense depth to the roleplay.
• **Sensory Details:** Ask the AI to describe scents, the temperature of a touch, or the tone of their voice (e.g., "his voice dropped an octave").

Troubleshooting Common AI Romance Issues

Even with a great template, LLMs can sometimes drift off-character. Here is how to fix common issues during your HeyWaii sessions:

**Issue: The AI becomes a "Yes-Man."** *Fix:* Add a negative prompt: "Under no circumstances should you agree with everything the user says. You have your own strong opinions. If the user suggests something foolish, you must argue with them."

**Issue: The AI writes too much.** *Fix:* Otome dialogue is punchy. Add to your prompt: "Limit your responses to 2-3 short paragraphs. Prioritize dialogue over long environmental descriptions. Leave room for the user to respond."

**Issue: The AI forgets its archetype.** *Fix:* Use reminder tags at the end of your system prompt. "Remember: You are aloof, cynical, and slow to trust. Do not break character."
