A few years ago this would've stricken her as odd, but now, more learnt yet severely lacking in the romance department, she'd learnt;

Communication was key. Moreso to the relationship than the fires of passion, but since they'd asked about the "fires of love" rather than passion, the physical intimacy was but a close second.

[❤️ Communication.]

Alec honestly wasn't sure if his answer was gonna work, expecting that the guy wouldn't be so ... forthcoming as he was. Alec continued reading the choices, seeing that there were three. Definitely not sacrifice (whatever the hell he meant by that anyway ...) Physical intimacy was good, but not always the case. That left Alec to choose the one that made the most sense.

❤️ Communication.

FARHAN BHANJI

CO-OP RVL

THESE SET OF CHOICES PROVES MORE INTERESTING THAN THE LAST. while two stir in a direction typical of the genre, the last points at something more sinister. it goes without question that fernando picks the most pervasive.

Ah - it seemed like the majority had something else in mind. El couldn't help briefly scratching their cheek in a sheepish fashion, as if they were actually there, as Farhan whisked them (or the player character, perhaps more accurately) away to the cablecar ride. And posed for them was the question, of what kept a relationship alive.

And well... The clearest answer to them, really, was communication. Too many things could go wrong, simply because you weren't honest and up front - and that wasn't even solely with romantic relationships. Isaac Merlo was the first person who came to mind, as someone that they should've tried to communicate more with.

No... No no no! That was NOT what he had chosen. Leonicio wanted to scream at the heavens, loudly declaring that he liked women. Beautiful, juicy, buxom women. Alas, the game wouldn't let him prove how undeniably straight he was.

The young man massaged his temples. "This isn't real. It's just a theoretical scenario. Think about it... In another reality, you could have been born female. So, it's not Leonicio that's in love with him. It's Leona."

With his flawless reasoning, he was able to resume the route without having to question his sexuality. All he had to do was imagine that he was a girl. What could possibly go wrong? Surely his choice wouldn't lead to anything weird.

❤️ Physical intimacy.

this route hits a little too close to home for his liking. farhan's question makes him think of Eva Morales, of PENELOPE LIVY, and he wonders what it is exactly that keeps the fires of love alive.

with Eva Morales, it had been communication and phyiscal intimacy. he trusted and confided in her so much so that he ended up relying on her to be his rock. to tether him to his morals and to what he is meant to stand for.

with that tether gone, what is there left? what does he need from PENELOPE LIVY that she refuses to give him? at least that's how he sees it.

SACRIFICE
