Heart level

PROTIP:
To increase Chris' heart level to 100%, simply be female and say "hello" to him. Males may attempt heart-recovery by announcing exciting new Sonichu Game development efforts, but this doesn't work as reliably.

Heart level is Chris's measure of his emotional state. Because Chris has spent his life playing video games instead of socializing with actual people, he is only able to express his emotions in video game-inspired terms. It first appeared in Sub-Episode 2: The Rise & Fall of My Heart (where it hit its lowest recorded level, 15%) but he uses the term in general conversation as well.
Chris uses the word "shattered" exclusively to describe his perpetually wounded heart level. He has never even used the more common expression, "broken heart".
Heart level is also helpfully displayed on CWCipedia front page, as a diabolical variation of Wikipedia's stress meters. Well... it would have been a diabolical variation, but apparently Chris is too lazy to change it, making it merely slightly lame. Despite leaving an obvious default placeholder message on the front page, he still felt comfortable showing this fantastic website to potential investors/employers.
