i like the new choices for the locket options. i canât wait to see the other stuff that underwent change as well.
As for the job/class, i think i'm going have Remy as an Detective/Investigator and Ryan as a Doctor/Caregiver.

Hmm, I think Iâll be tweaking the class selection process a little bit.
In the preview above, the suggested job category was marked by a star. So to streamline it, a list of suggested classes will now be shown first instead of the job categories.
The suggested classes will be based on your MCâs enneagram type (the birthday wish you picked during the short story). So the list of classes I previewed above will be suggested if you picked:
- I wanted to discover and learn everything in the world.
Of course, the âpick something elseâ option will now be reworded to:
- Come on, Iâm not that predictable! I want to be something else.
Hopefully this will provide a more immersive experience!

Happy Motherâs Day, Mommy! I miss you so much! Please call us again soon.
No, I miss you more, Mommy!
Hi Mommy! Itâs my favorite day today, so I made a new poem! Can you guess what it is? Daddy said itâs okay to visit me, so Iâll be waiting for you!
Happy Motherâs Day, Mommy Josephine. I know youâre not my real mommy, butâŚ
Happy Motherâs Day, Nay. Wherever you are, I hope youâre proud of me tooâŚ
Fine, but just this once, okay? Happy Motherâs Day to the best Police-Mom and Computer-Mom in the world!

Hello everyone! I know I made a poll earlier about whether I should split the update into two parts, but unfortunately I donât think Iâll honor the results. 
Iâll be very busy once again soon, and all the editing Iâve made almost feels like writing a new chapter in terms of workload. I could delay the update further, but I wonât be able to work with a peace of mind knowing that I have a half-finished update lying around.
The update should come out within the next two weeks, or earlier if I feel like it. At minimum, it will contain just the edits, and at best, I will have the whole Chapter 2 complete and the Tumblr ready.
Anyway, hereâs the incomplete change log to get you hyped (seriously, just look at how much stuff I changed):
đ v2.2 (Level Twelve Update)
STORY
⢠Chapter Two is now completed!
⢠MC and Twin are now 12 years old. JM is now 11 years old.
⢠Lily and JMâs introduction songs are now available!
⢠To improve pacing and reduce filler chapters, the story is now set one day later. Choices and story elements have been adjusted to fit the new timeline:
- The story now begins on Feb. 28, during Roselynaâs birthday.
- Maâam Bianes is now leaving LCU after the school year.
- The reconciliation scene has been revamped to be more thematic. MC no longer fully forgives their twin, regardless of starting relationship. The fight is supposed to be an ongoing source of tension.
- Added more reasons to hate B(?)
- Wayneâs fieldtrip waiver now has a signature!
- Wayne and Roselynaâs introduction songs now segue into their short stories.
CHARACTERS
⢠Roselynaâs parents, Kuya Patrick, and Wayneâs dad are now introduced.
⢠Adjusted character personalities:
- Roselyna should now be slightly less childish.
- Wayne should now be slightly less silly, and will no longer react angrily when telling Roselyna to be less childish.
- JM should hopefully no longer come off as manipulative.
- The locket choice also now has a more significant effect on the twinâs personalityâthey will be more silly and stubborn in addition to being emotional if theyâre wearing the Heart Locket, while they will be more practical and down-to-earth in addition to being reserved if theyâre wearing the Star Locket.
⢠Twin always trusts Lily now.
⢠Twin will now only be in the Class Top 10 if you have the [Competitive] Trait.
⢠Twin no longer wears glasses if MC wears glasses. This was almost never addressed anyway.
⢠Added two more seatmates(?)
CHOICES
⢠Moved the disciplined/stubborn student choice to the prologue.
⢠Added a âgood endingâ choice to the list of endings you can choose to write for the bedtime story.
⢠Added two separate choices where you can choose whether and why you still love/believe/hate/resent Maggie.
⢠Added a choice where chubby and formerly chubby MCs can choose whether they like calling themselves âhuggableâ and âfluffyâ as well. They will also no longer automatically gain bonus relationship with Roselyna.
⢠Added dream job choice which also determines you and your twinâs character class. Your short story genre and birthday wish will influence the suggested classes presented.
⢠Added an extra starting relationship choice with JM that increases Discipline & Silly.
⢠Added a choice where you can pick if you have experienced snow before if you were born in another country.
⢠Added a choice where [Acrophobe] MCs can choose to hold your twinâs hand when going down the stairs.
⢠Added a choice where you can select where the Friends 6Ever Headquarters is.
⢠Added a choice where you can tell Roselyna how to deal with bullies.
⢠Revamped various choice trees: Certain choices will now either help or hinder your friendsâ character arcs, which are tracked via hidden variables.
⢠The seat position choice now also determines who your seatmate is.
⢠Removed the Silly/Sensible Twin and Disciplined/Stubborn Twin choices, as well as the choice of whether they trust Lily.
⢠Removed the Wayne and Roselyna LQ choice because it was redundant.
⢠Removed the negative/hostile deal choices after hugging B. Hugging B is also no longer possible if you pushed Roselyna away earlier.
⢠Removed choice about forging Wayneâs waiver.
⢠You can name your stuffed toy again(?)
⢠You can now select a bestfriend(?)
STATS AND MECHANICS
⢠Added a new phobia: [Arachnophobe].
⢠Added new traits: [Young Padawan], [Musically Averse], [Cryptolingual], a second [Genre Lover] Trait, and a class-specific trait.
- The [Young Padawan] trait gives you a 30% EXP Bonus, and is acquired if you donât pick a class/dream job.
- The [Musically Averse] trait gives you a choice to skip each musical scene.
- The [Cryptolingual] trait unlocks a secret language exclusive to you and your twin.
⢠Adjusted how relationship changes are handled, so certain choices are more/less impactful than before in the long run. For example, a simple disagreement with a character wonât have a lasting effect anymore.
⢠Personality Stats can now decrease instead of giving points to the opposing stat to better reflect some choices, since ââHonestâ isnât necessarily the same as â+Manipulativeâ. This also means that some choices may be more/less impactful than before.
⢠Diary is now fully accessible!
ART
⢠Updated character art and cover art.
⢠Brandon/Beatrice no longer has placeholder art.
⢠Updated a few headers and certain heart locket gems.
⢠Added inventory and trinket icons.
CHANGES AND FIXES
⢠Increased XP needed to level up to 130,000.
⢠Playthrough codes are now more compact.
⢠Edited and trimmed down some scenes and awkward/tangential dialogue to improve scene flow.
⢠Doubled Bâs starting negative relationship because it was too easy to increase for the first encounter.
⢠The airport choice no longer specifically mentions Lungsod City as Maggieâs hometown.
⢠The âPersonality Stats Guideâ has been expanded and renamed to just âStats Guideâ, and is no longer written in first person(?)
⢠[Stoic] MCs no longer automatically give hugs in public even if they have Physical Touch as their love language. Trait description has been updated accordingly.
⢠Added emojis to certain choices. Changed star and heart choice symbols to emojis. Most star symbols have been removed from choices with variable wording but with no special requirements.
⢠Removed certain secrets that werenât very secrety.
⢠Adjusted personality and relationship stats from various choices.
⢠Alternate text has been added to most images.
⢠Sprinkled in more references.
⢠And most importantly, Roselyna is now slightly more huggable.
Iâm also cooking up some very exciting stuff in the near future, so stay tuned!

I noticed what i think are a few mistakes and one sentence I didnt think made a lot of sense.
Summary
I think it should be âhasâ here
Here i got the feeling it should be âWe hadâ I could be worng in this one tho!
âHadâ again I think
âWereâ because its in the past I think
âWouldâ I think
Is Paddy Patrick? In the âwasnâtâ I think itâs âwerenâtâ. Regarding him being like a father to them that is a litle strange since he is a kid himself.
I havent started chapter 1 yet but until now iâm really liking this book, i think its pretty interesting and well writen

Hello! I know itâs been more than a month since I made my last post, buuut now Iâve learned my lesson about making any promises. I clearly underestimated the stuff that I still need to write, and Iâll admit that Iâve fallen into the trap (again) of trying to edit as I write instead of just writing it all out. Itâs also just draining to write different personalities at once, especially in first person.
On my last update post Chapter 2 was approaching 40k words (including code), but now itâs almost 50k! Thatâs already more than double the length of Chapter 1, although Iâm pretty sure that a large part of it is because of all the variations⌠I hope so, at least. 
I never really stopped writing, but I just want to make this post so that I can clear my headspace and permit myself to stop working on MWCAPH! for the next several weeks so I can focus on other stuff.
@M_Trakar Sorry for the late reply, but I appreciate all the reports! I implemented some of your suggestions, but unless itâs a blatant error, I think itâs fine to leave most of them that way. âMe and my twinâ is grammatically incorrect, after all. I do agree that the sentence with Patrick is a bit awkward though!
Anyway, I hope you enjoyed the rest of it! Sorry that the update is coming a lot later than intended.

Hiii! I can finally get back to writing again!
Sooo, Iâve actually been working on an animation as my one of my final projects. I wanted to create a trailer for MWCAPH!, but unfortunately it didnât get approved, so I had to settle for the next best thing and create the prologue instead. Itâs complete, but itâs incredibly rushed, so Iâm not sure I actually want to share it just yet. It needs an awful lot of polishing before itâs presentable, but I donât think I can do that in the foreseeable future.
So hereâs a preview instead!
@Nell Thank you! I hope you enjoyed reading it. Iâm excited to finally be done with the next update!

Please tell me there will be more chapters! I really loved this, I could make my mc exactly like me, like a annoying and cold girl (but deep down is actually a very sweet girl) who is mad with her mother because she left her, and doesnât get along with her twin because heâs totally different from her. This. Is. Amazing.

Hello everyone! Chapter 2 is mostly complete, but while you wait, hereâs a little sneak peek of the revamped twin reconciliation scene. Itâs all in code, unfortunately, but thereâs no way I can show the variations in just a couple of screenshots.
For some context: Just before this snippet, you get to choose the reason why you still love/believe/hate/resent Maggie, with MC and Twin then deciding to fight the storyâs villains (and unifying their short stories) together. The the/this/thim are the twinâs pronouns, by the way.
Summary
[i][b]${sibtwin}[/b] has joined the party![/i][n/][n/]
*if (heartlocket)
*if (loveshugs)
$!{the} scratches ${this} head. "Come on, I know you've been waiting to do it."
And with no telepathy necessary⌠I close my eyes and throw myself towards ${thim}@{emotional , as my eyes start doing what they do best|}. And for the first time in a long while, ${the} doesn't complain.
*else
$!{the} closes ${this} eyes, when ${the} suddenly throws ${thim}self towards me.
[i]A hug.[/i] $!{the} almost never does that. And that's when you know ${the} really means it.
*if (hateshugs)
The hug connects, and for the first time in a long while, I don't complain.
I @{hateshugs let ${thim} pull me|pull ${thim}} closer@{emotional as my eyes start doing what they do best|, and close my eyes with a smile}.
*else
$!{the} closes ${this} eyes, and throws ${thim}self towards me.
*if (loveshugs)
We meet in the middle, no telepathy necessary.
*if (hateshugs)
The hug connects, and for the first time in a long while, I don't complain.
I'm a little surprised it took ${thim} this long to finally hug meâusually it's the first thing ${the} does after we fight.
I @{hateshugs let ${thim} pull me|pull ${thim}} closer@{emotional as my eyes start doing what they do best|, and close my eyes with a smile}.
*if (loveshugs) and (starlocket)
We both hold onto each other for a long while. Just me and my ${tlilbig} ${tsibling}, ${hugging} in a sunset-lit school corridor⌠at least, until we have to breathe.
*elseif (loveshugs)
And so I hold onto ${thim} for a long while. Just me ${hugging} my ${tlilbig} ${tsibling} in a sunset-lit school corridor⌠at least, until I force myself to pull away to let ${thim} breathe.
*elseif (starlocket)
And so I let ${thim} hold onto me for a long while. Just my ${tlilbig} ${tsibling}, squeezing me in a sunset-lit school corridor⌠Typical day, really.
*else
It'd be barely considered a hug @{wordy according to ${Roselyna}'s standards|if you ask ${Roselyna}}, but considering neither of us are cuddlebugs, it's long enough for both of us.
*if (emotional)
I take @{glasses off my foggy eyeglasses and wipe them|a moment to wipe my eyes} with the ${color} @{wordy handkerchief|hanky} ${the} threw at me earlier, and
*if (starlocket)
then I wipe ${this} eyes as well.
*else
tuck it back to ${this} pocket.
I'd say that it feels like something heavy was lifted off my chest, but I guess there's a reason why it's a clichĂŠ.
*if (lovelanguage = "words")
My ${tsibling} saying that ${the} wants to continue ${this} story with me? That's the best thing I've heard all day.
*elseif (lovelanguage = "touch")
Getting @{(precocious_percent > 80) oxytocin from my ${tsibling}|to ${hug} my ${tsibling} again} does feel like that.
*elseif (lovelanguage = "time")
I can't wait to spend time and continue our stories together, just like it's oldâwell, backstory times.
*elseif (lovelanguage = "gifts")
My ${tsibling} wanting to continue ${this} story with me is the greatest gift I could ask for right now.
*else
My ${tsibling} wanting to continue ${this} story with me is better than any gift or apology ${the} could ever give.
*if (acrophobe)
$!{the} moves closer to the @{(height = 1) flower beds|railings}, and peers into the abyss that is the quad below.
I don't follow, of course. I'm perfectly fine staying here, where I'm safe andâ
$!{the} reaches out for my hand. "Come on, I'll hold you."
I grip ${this} hand reluctantly, and inch closer towards ${thim}. With another hand on the railings, I follow ${this}
*else
I move closer to the @{(height = 1) flower beds|railings}, and peer into the quad below.
$!{the} doesn't follow, of course. $!{the}'s always scared of falling off no matter how many railings you put in front of ${thim}.
I reach out for ${this} hand. "$!{cmon}, I'll hold you."
$!{the} grips my hand reluctantly, as ${the} inches closer towards me. With another hand on the railings, ${the} follows my
gaze towards a pair of students with their arms open rushing towardsâI assumeâtheir mother.
And for a moment, it's just the noise of the other students being picked up by their parentsâboth literally and not literally. Some happy their suffering has finally ended, some of them getting the scolding of their lives. It's funny how dismissal can both be the best and worst part of school.
@{acrophobe My heart almost jumps when|Then I} feel a gentle weight on my shoulder. "@{oldlocketpic I don't think I'm|I'm sure you're not} ready to say sorry to $!{mommy} yet, but⌠I'm sorry for being a terrible ${tsibling}."
I take ${this} hand off me and look at the floor, our own shadows stiff and steady against the fluttering fern shadows. I'm glad we're @{starting_rel ${bestie}s|friends|siblings} again, but I'm not ${gonna} apologize to ${thim} for @{mommy_feeling still loving|still believing in|being angry at|being resentful of} $!{mommy}.
*page_break "Then that's good enough for me."
Any feedback is welcome!
@Hector.Jones Iâm glad you liked it! And just wait for Chapter 2 â thereâll be a lot more familiar things to see!
@Kethmos Thank you! Unfortunately I wonât be working on it anytime soon, but I hope you enjoy reading the story!

As a born and bred Filipino, I love this SO MUCH! You perfectly captured the feel of being a kid of such tender young age. As someone relatively young with those memories fresh in my mind still, youâve really struck a chord with me here.
(And of course, when upon reading, I noticed Tagalog being spoken, I couldnât help when given the option to model the twins after me and my own sister)
With all the well-written choices, you can really act like an actual 12-year-old grade-schooler. I could really easily just act like I did when I was 11 or 12: act just like I did (and, well, do) with my sister⌠everything you put into this just makes me think âwowâ!
Basically, I loved it and am supporting you 100%!

Wow that was a long update
First things first my code is 13114710-NAJ-HD-FQKR
EJ-XP-5N-3J-1G-2G-1Z-L
AABDFQ42ZMD2R-6YNIGX
Also there were a couple of bugs
Stat Screen
Once I opened the diary and left stat screen, it saved the screen on diary, which is good. But after some time when I went to check my stats it was not possible to return to the MAIN stat screen. Even after going to family page and clicking return to character stat screen it gave an error
Black Background
From chapter 2 onwards some of the headings in both the Diary section of Stat screen and the Game itself do not invert to white which makes it difficult to read. This is probably a quick fix so doesnât bother me that much but it sure was annoying whenever I went to the stat screen
I loved all the quests and secrets that we can find. Is there a guide on where to find the trinkets, I managed to find 2 out of 3 while the secrets were even less - 6 out of 11. I wonder if it is possible to optimise to get all of them in a single run. One question I had was if the stats were being used yet in the story. So far I donât think I had any options that I could not choose due to my Stats( Personality stats specifically) . I wonder if that is something that will be more prominent from Chapter 3 onwards. Another thing, Is it possible to have the character drawings in our diary as well? Looking forward to solving all the subquests.

If i remember correctly, some choices are dependent on certain stats (like you canât skip class if you value conduct) while others are for the New Game+.
