MCs romancing Sally triggered.
How am I supposed to romance Sally after this without crippling guilt especially if our bro survived? This is a serious issue!
I donāt have anything constructive to say; I just want to gush over your game.
The ASE heist option? GOLD. Passive-aggressively moving Kimās plaque? INCREDIBLE. (Iād play an entire game devoted to covertly readjusting his office and seeing his reaction.) Getting to set Nickās ringtone as Yakety Sax? jksdfjfn;;;
A handful of tourists and other commuters stand at strategic intervals where they think the doors will open. Those local keep left of center between the concrete pillars, accustomed to how the doors always open slightly ahead of the groundās lined markings.
As an ex-subway commuter, I felt that in my bones. I love all the little bits of realism and the many, many different reactions we can have.
Nick has your heart, but he canāt have your kidney.
After that last update⦠turns out my PCās a liar. Nick can have both his kidneys.
Anyway, what Iām trying to say is you blasted straight through my expectations for how good a CS game can be. I will buy the heck out of the published game!
Of all the memes sis. Of ALL the memes.
It also pleases me. I too will cling to this.
the author has clarified that there are no trans options in mind blind. here, i copy-pasted the response from their tumblr
āNot explicitly, sorry! Mind Blind has a lot of flashbacks from when Button was a kid and teenager, so including trans options would take either adding a lot of extra questions or going off presumptions about when your character began presenting as their true gender.ā

I am deeply amused by the direction this story is taking. A lot of folks donāt have the gumption to inflict major suffering on their characters. This is delightful.
ok im done emotionally processing the last update. lets do this
Spoiler
- Can you add a neutral choice for mc response of aeon tower? my mc not particularly grateful/resentful of it, and the other option give them acrophobia.
- i bet that acrophobia would play a significant part in next chapter, dear author who has different chapter image depending the route and buttons personality. i refuse to believe that stat is there for fun
- i do agree with several people here that button planted the bomb or at least evidence leading to themselves between searching for valeroās keychain to bathroom. BUT when noh gave the bomb to button? since not all button take subway route and even then noh was in other tunnel. could they be a student/work at aeon? doubt it since they have to take a tunnel to get to aeon. i originally suspect valero but she arrived before button so she cant be noh.
Again, Iām here to question my own memory, did the author said something like " after Button ________ and, Sally ___________" before? The recent comments make me thinking⦠If so, did that ominous hint meant for this new update?
I understood that reference
I love Fitz and the Tantrums, but I donāt know if I love the implications in the world of Mind Blind aaaaah
oh my gosh who lied
nooooo
Suck a great update
I was confused when I read the title. Now I donāt know whether to be happy that I guessed one of the outcomes, or devastated because Nicky Mouse was the only thing keeping my MCā¦over the edge.
First, I strongly respect your decision to cause massive suffering on our MCs. Starting with the revelation of the MC mind-blindness, a classic hors dāoeuvre, properly setting the tone for the rest of the angst-filled five-course read. Following this, an excellent appetizer that packs a punch, the traumatizing incident that tore a family apart, which flows extremely well with the calm, yet eery dressing that is disguised in the āwe need to talkā. Truly a classic. Finally, of course, comes the main course, that ties the whole thing together, beautifully. I mean wow. The explosion, the dread, Nickās unknown fate. I canāt wait for the dessert, itās bound to beā¦exquisite. I expect the slow (or instant) realisation that the incident leads back to Button to be sprinkled atop the plate. Delectable.
I got lost in the metaphor there,
In all seriousness, itās really well done. I mean the pacing and everything is just beautiful. Iām torn between wanting Nicky to be horribly mutilated and dead by the time paramedics arrive, barely clinging to life until Button arrives to finally let go (maximum angst potential ) or let him get through so that my MC can blame himself twice as much. Either way, itās bound to be superb.
Anyways. Time for me to analyse the text and find out precisely how many clues are left in there. I canāt wait.
It would be interesting a MC feeling nothing, maybe too numb, or (and itās my favorite in the angst possibility) a MC feeling relieved, maybe without knowing why.
Precision : the feeling is about dangerosity or maybe even the potential death.
That Said
I enjoyed the interaction with John. Also, Gray finally becoming aware of my Buttonās flirting (In all honesty, I canāt imagine what four years of seemingly useless pining would feel like. I really admire MCās determination)!
And can we talk about how Nickās favorite song is Rainbow Connection? I honestly didnāt even know what the song was until I had to look it up to better understand the ringtone selections and that is just incredibly adorable.
Thereās so much I liked about this update and so much I like about this story. If I went on about it anymore Iām afraid I would end up making this overly long with my rambling. So Iāll just say Iām definitely looking forward to the next update!
Well, my concern about Nickās fate has increased considerably after that edit
Loved the update overall!, a real gutpunch (my Button is going to be riddled with guilt)
I cant believe it Setting our brother up on a date was not just removed. And he was edited out of our family summary. NOOO! Stop. PUT IT BACK PLEASEEEE. Iām very concerned for Nick now. I will die of Nick dies
Iām inclined to believe that Noh is sitting inside the building sipping tea, watching everything go up in flames with a smile on their face.
Damn.
So āBoomā huh?
ā¦
Nick better be okay dammit. He canāt be dead! What about him being paired up huh?
No no no no.
Okay, so⦠maybe⦠he isnt answering back because Mr. Noh-mask is controlling him. But Nick is okay and alive and well and alive.
Why does it feel like we are being dangled over a cliffās edge?
Cliffā¦hanger?
I used to make a pun like āIām going to hang at every cliffā.
If Glitchās ranking in a āWho would you date on a second playthrough?ā poll actually climbed higher than the last poll, it might give a bit of insight into what people are thinking, but it would probably feel like a āparticipationā award more than an achievementāeven taking first place above everyone else. I would love to see the rant they pop off with, though. Glitch is very entertaining to read.
