update 18.

WHAT I DID.

last week i gave y'all a really short update so here i am with a moderately longer one. i feel like i spoiled most of what i can say about this chapter in previous updates already, which is why my updates sometimes repeat information or sound sparse, but i'm trying lol. i really am.

chapter seven is going smoothly, thank god for that. i thought i'd be able to finish all the close proximity scenes last week, but i ended up being super busy. nevertheless, i only have two more to write (the bold flirt scenes for N and Rylan; K doesn't get one as explained in an earlier update). i can't even express to you how fun they are to write. i know when i edit them i may need to tone them back a bit, just because we're still towards the beginning half of the book and i can't really go overboard with feelings this early, but i can't help myself. i think it's natural to be a little flustered around someone when you're stuck close together, especially if you're brushing against each other, so who knows? maybe i'll keep it all in and you guys will get the pleasure of reading it (or, i hope).

i did get a little tired of writing romance scene after romance scene, however, so i went ahead and skipped a bit to the second branch scene that i've talked about. i've stated previously that it has a very different vibe from the first branch, so it's a good breather for me to take. i'm not sure how long this branch is, but as most of the scenes are shared no matter which ro you chose to bring into the VIP room, it'll be a quicker write than the first branch. i plan on having the entire chapter written by the middle of this month and hope to send things out to beta testers around the 20th, so we'll see how things go.

and lastly, moving away from the topic of chapter seven, i've been making tweaks to the twine build ever since it came out. it's hard to catch bugs on your own so i appreciate all the emails and comments and asks, but god is it hard to keep up sometimes. i'm so happy that everyone is liking the build and little changes however, it makes it all worth it <3
