That Bit Extra — Adam/Ava Opening Sneak Peek... (Patreon)

Earlier in the month I was talking about A’s scene and hoping that I can get in a varied amount of options for the MC to react to A’s apparent casual shift in mood. Here’s a little example of one of the choices when the MC isn’t quite so easy about it themself!

The sting of the memories doesn't shift, a sharpness in my tone as I shoot out, "You're doing a great job of staying away from me, I see."

Adam/Ava seems to think over my words carefully with a sharpness of his/her own slicing out from his/her gaze. "Letting you go and staying away from you are very different things."

"Why is that?" I do the worst thing possible after asking that—I look at him/her.

And the way his/her sharp green eyes soften at my attention drowns out the aching pain of the memories.

"The first I hope I am able to do. The latter…that is impossible," he/she admits through a mumble I wonder if I was actually supposed to hear.
