Revisiting the old area's makes you want a new game plus, you know? Taking back everything you've gained and replaying through those moments in the story, doing far better then you originally did.

Games work like that, but life does not. You can only carry the past with you as you run towards the future.

Life is just like an RPG, from the way I see it.

At level 1, you're just learning the ropes. You do shit wrong, get pissed about making the wrong decisions, but can't start over. You keep going, gaining levels as your story continues. And after a long time passes, you're a much higher level. You don't even notice how much better you've become, until you decide to revisit that very first area you started in.

You encounter the enemies you previously found challenging, and blow them away as if they were nothing. Satisfying.

It's taken me weeks at a time to actually get around to posting, but I think starting now ill try to get around to updating a least once a week. Ill try to keep said updates interesting as well.

I looked back at some of my older role playing posts from here, from when I first joined the site... And ended up laughing. They're actually kind of bad if you ask me.

Got it.

Nah, so long as Maple doesn't make it look like she was consenting to rape like before, hehehe.

So would Maple pushing the subject of sex a bit more end poorly?

Okay, I think it's fixed.

That's better... But keep in mind, Maple has no idea what the drug does. A vague idea, yes, given it's labeled 'lust,' but no concrete facts about it.

Would... It be okay to have Maple reach out to Juli to hand her the drug, saying that it is okay for her to take it?

Heh, I know what she 'means,' but I was talkin' about what it 'seems' like she means.

"I'll give you a choice," that phrase makes it seem like Juli's at Maple's mercy, which she most certainly can be, and that Maple is being 'generous' enough to give her a decision on what should happen to her drug. And in Juli's pathetic state, she will, without a doubt, plead for Maple not to throw her drug away. Already a weakness she didn't want to show, this will make Juli feel humiliated, not likely to speak another word to Maple for a long time.

Throwing the drug away at all, or even asking Juli to make a choice on the matter, are both terrible, terrible things to do to someone in her condition. The only thing worse than that would be smashing the syringe on the ground, destroying it in front of Juli.

Just think of what would be a 'nice' thing to do, an act of sympathy, or an attempt at understanding what Juli's going through. Even the smallest detail can make a big difference.
