[Main Story Poll] Chapter 2 Pt. 2 K's Scene
Added 2024-04-22 09:00:07 +0000 UTCHi there, hope the start of your week is not stressful!
I already mentioned in the progress update that I want to make a poll on the choices the reader can make in Chapter 2 Pt. 2.
I am referring to the scene with Kyle / Keira, specifically the choices where the reader uses the flirting options.
Since Sanguine Sky was originally intended to be a visual novel, K's whole route was based on the idea that you don't have to tolerate and be nice to a character who doesn't do the same in return.
Because it happens in visual novels all the time, and I really dislike the message.
Going back to the scene with K.
It's written in such a way that the MC is the one who decides to leave before K asks them to do so.
My main intention was to show that it's okay to not tolerate the attitude that K now has towards the MC.
Because given K's difficult temperament, calmly discussing everything just doesn't work, and the most sensible thing the MC could do at this point is simply walk away, as they did.
And the more often the MC does it, the sooner K will realize that if they keep it up, they might regret it a lot in the future, especially if they're interested in the MC.
I know that my vision that the MC should demonstrate to characters like K that such an attitude is unacceptable will be evident throughout the story, since I'm the author and that's my story.
Still, I think I could also give the reader a choice: leave or stay, push away or not.
Even though the outcome would be the same, I think it could flavor the narrative and the reader's perception of everything that happens between K and the MC.
Thank you for taking the time to read the post to the end! Maybe it's not that important, but I'd like to know your opinion.
