RAMBLE.

apologies for the somewhat late update, we had daylight savings here in canada and it's seriously messed up my sleep schedule.

onto what i did, chapter four's upload onto twine was a success! i'm now two chapters and a bunch of codex entries away from finally, finally posting it publicly and giving it to you guys. i'm entering the period of school where things are starting to pile up, but hopefully, i'll be able to get to chapter five sooner than later and finish those up. chapter six will probably be the worst to code but it'll be a reward when i'm finished.

for chapter seven, i got extremely close to finishing act two. i stayed up until three am last night writing, but eventually got tired and went to sleep. there's so little left that i'm certain half an hour of writing tonight will be enough for me to finish it, and then i'm onto the scenes. the scenes i've been wanting to write since i thought of them at two am. again, it's one of those things that you can play with all five ros and get different reactions, which is always super fun, so i hope it convinces you to play more than one route. i'm still figuring out how this scene will work with K, since they're still in their 'leave me alone i hate all of you' phase, but i promise i'll be fun for everyone.

i am a bit upset about leaving mirai behind, however. she'll definitely make appearances in the future, but she was so fun to write that no longer having long conversations with her for the rest of the chapter is bittersweet.

i don't know if i've mentioned it before, but acts three and four are basically the same act except they're part of a branch. so once act two ends, you have the option to do one or the other, which is always more work to write but so satisfying when it all comes together. i'm working on act three next, which has the ro scenes so if you're on the twilight tier or higher, be on the lookout for some sneak peeks later this month. i know i have a decent way to go, but honestly, the more i think about it the more i think the twine build and chapter seven will go up within a month of each other. they're going to be super close. hopefully that makes up for the long break lol.

SNEAK PEEK.

She spares me a glance, eyes so blank it’s frightening. “I’ve known Caine Atheron for longer than you have and I can assure you he’s had more than nine lives. Is that fair, hunter?”
