cute! i love how much depth there is for how short the actual storyline is, and i would call this a prime example of accomplishing a whole lot with only very little to work from. great job, you two!

i especially appreciate the treatment of roy's abusive behaviour: he is neither romanticized/given a redemptive angle ('he's really a good person deep  down') nor caricatured ('muahaha, he is so evil') in the narration, but instead provides a realistic view into some of the traits and dangers most common in emotional manipulation. most times, the traits aren't as overt as fiction depicts them, and they really can tend to be as subtle and hot-and-cold as they are here. while holden's choices offer the reader the option to follow after him if they so choose, no narrative aspect strives to paint an embellished image of him, and this is what i am appreciative of. may inexperienced readers draw lessons from this story, so that they don't have to learn the bitter lessons that an actual emotionally-manipulative partner will teach instead.

Thank you for your nice review ! ✨

We hope you liked the Felix path as much as the Roy path ! We'll try to do even better next time

the felix route was worth its weight in gold, and i cherished every moment of it. i didnt follow the roy route to the very end, because ive already had my fill of partners like that irl, so i ditched him at the last moment lmao

It really do be like that sometimes 😊

Thanks a lot for playing
