Nice work.
As for me, the writing + initial programming is about 50% done. We stalled a bit earlier on, so we're only
slightly behind schedule. It's definitely nothing we can't make up for. Although, I might outsource a few scenes to my brother (also a talented writer) just to finish faster and give some extra time to straighten things out. I'm also sick, but I'll be fine... ;~;
In other news, Owain received his first vote! He's on his way to world domination. xD
Anyway, I realize I haven't given anything to show for my work thus far. So, in the interest of keeping you guys updated, here's a small writing sample!
Should be obvious, but E= Elise and M=Minori
BLACK SCREEN
(centered ) Elise... thank you for coming.
E “Oh, Minori... No need to thank me, really.”
(centered) But I have to.
E “It’s not like I’m really doing anything for you-“
(centered) But you are... You’re protecting me from the train’s curse.
E “Minori... come on, now.”
I somehow manage a soft giggle.
FADE IN: EXT. TRAIN STATION
It almost feels surreal, now that I’m thinking about it... An empty wind swirls around us, fluttering Minori’s skirt and tossing my hood into the air. The faint grumble of a train’s departure on the opposite platform echoes throughout the station.
E “You know, Minori, it’s been a long time since I’ve been to the city... Really, I’m a bit excited- is that messed up?”
M “N-no, of course not, Lettuce-chan. I asked you to come, so the least you could get in return is some fun-“
E “But it won’t be fun for you.”
M “...Says who?”
Half a chuckle escapes from her lips, fractured further by her trembling voice.
M “I’ll try my best, okay? …Lettuce-chan?”
That's it for now. Tell me what you think!!!
Minori thinks that Elise's hair looks like a head of lettuce, while Owain
insists that it looks like a tomato.
Perhaps that debate will be settled once we release the visual novel this month and you hear their arguments. Straw poll, anyone? xD
