Chapter 12 Update: Gray's Date
🕑 Added 2021-08-09 03:44:53 +0000 UTCNew Length: 350,000 words, now including
1) Sohvi's entire intervention with a new exclusive path for Buttons who are guilty but not necessarily depressed. If the intervention doesn't trigger for you, the scene will play out as a check-in where you have the option of going to the intervention by selecting the option "Strong? Hardly." I wanted to allow for as much roleplaying as possible, even if you don't consistently selected the struggling options. (Likewise, Button can opt out of the intervention by honestly telling Sohvi that she's wrong and they're fine.)
2) Gray's Date Scene. Since Gray's is the only scene added, your Button will automatically be considered to be romancing him should you play past the scene in Sohvi's office. The only part missing for Gray's scene is the very last transition back (which includes a cheek kiss of all scandals!), but that's only because I need to make sure that all the transitions tie in nicely to the scene right before Noh's broody brooding.
Chapter 12 is hands down the longest chapter yet, with over 40,000 words. (Although I'm sorry, because I would've had Sally and Rosy's scenes ready tonight, had I not decided to write the new Sohvi scene instead of bug crushing this morning like I was supposed to.)
Next Updates: Sally's and Rosy's date scenes should be up sometime tomorrow, with K's and Glitch's following by Wedsnesday.

I'm not sure if I did something wrong, but it seems like I got part of a date scene with Sally? My MC had a little bit of a crush on her, like mentioned it once in the beginning and hasn't since, but her crush on Gray was WAYYYYYYY stronger
It’s incredibly endearing how much Gray pays attention to Button’s personality. It’s always in the small things you’d never see…unless you’re a rotten code diver like me.

Same. I literally was like "OKAY BUT WHAT DOES THAT MEAN" aloud like dashingdon had the answers.

I loved the guilt specific scenes! Also where the Grayson scene cut off is cruel! My heart can't take this!

Damnnn this is awesome
The new Sohvi scene was definitely worth it! I was happy enough with the existing intervention, but reading the guilt-specific scene with my Button just now was so perfect. The different interventions (plus options to read/avoid them regardless of hidden stats) are such a thoughtful addition for the wide range of Buttons you've allowed us to play. Thanks so much for this scene (I especially loved the discussion of guilt vs shame and how they relate to Button's situation) and all your work on this chapter!
