Quid Pro Quo Sneak Peek: The Writing (NSFW text, so patrons only)

I've been quiet for a while because what I'm currently working on doesn't translate that well to a sneak peek, but it seems like a good idea to show progress anyway.

Unlike Stationmaster, Quid Pro Quo is focused on developing relationships with characters rather than acquiring an anonymous legion. This means that relationships can evolve naturally in a couple different directions, ranging from "blackmailed sex toy" to "career-driven sugar baby" to "live-in girlfriend."

Not only that, but there are multiple personality types with different stats like greed, marital status, and family size, all of which influence dialog in some capacity. It's a ton of content, and it will grow substantially as the game progresses after initial release.

Reluctant Climber: Path start

"Let's talk about your career. Where do you see yourself in five years?"

"I'm always looking for more responsibility. Maybe even a move up the ladder."

"So is everyone. What sets you apart?"

"Well, I try my best. Honestly, I get my work done, but so does everyone."

"I'd love to give you what you're looking for, but I haven't exactly seen the dedication I'd expect of someone higher up."

"Oh. What do you mean?"

"I'll tell you what. If you take off your shirt right now, I'll give you a ten percent raise."

"WHAT?!"

"Call it a demonstration. Show me that you care enough about this job to deserve it."

"You're disgusting."

"I'm offering you a rare opportunity to advance your career. These don't come often."

"... Just a look, right? Nothing... else?"

"Just one look, and I'll put the raise in. It will be the easiest money you've ever made."

"..."

"Fine. One look."

Friend with Benefits: Third sex scene

"Up for a quickie?"

"Gosh, such a romantic. Truly, every girl dreams of a dashing man who sweeps her off her feet, and whispers into her ear: 'Up for a quickie?'"

"Is that a no? Besides, it's better than Prince 'I kiss dead girls' Charming or 'Beast the Metaphor for Raging Alcoholism.'"

"God, no wonder we're always falling for pricks with no redeeming qualities besides money."

"..."

"Present company excluded, of course. You've also got that certified not-weird penis going for you. Which, speaking of..."

<she strips>

"I love our talks, but I was lying. You totally had me at 'up for a quickie?'"

Concrete Jungle Low-Income Housing CEO - After Buyout Extortion Option

"Your constant insubordination has made it clear that you care deeply about your residents."

"Of course I do. They're among the most vulnerable in our society, and need to be protected from people like you."

"You're losing. Profits are up since I took over, but we both know life has only gotten more difficult for them."

"It's not like you've given me much of a choice. Did you just call me here to rub this in my face?"

"Not exactly. I just wanted to tell you that, effective immediately, I'm terminating all maintenance. Residents will sign waivers absolving us of responsibility for death and dismemberment, and be left to their own devices."

"WHAT?! You can't do that! People will die!"

"I know, but we've determined that the market is strong enough to bear the losses. The numbers work out in favor of the change, but I have decided to give you a way to prevent it anyway."

"Really."

"Take off your clothes."

"WHAT?!"

"You heard me."

"That's... That's... horrible! You're disgusting!"

"Was all of that championing the poor just talk? I promise you, this change will kill people. The only thing you can do to save them is give me something better than their money."

"..."

"Fine."
