Such a bittersweet story. I especially loved how real everything was, no simple black and white situations. The addiction(s), social pressures, relationships, finances. So much nuance and complications with no easy answers. The time jumps were implemented very well, making the short story feel much longer. Also, who doesn't love musical cut scenes? Art was phenomenal as well. Not too sure what to think of the memory device bit, but I'm relieved that it ended on a positive note. Great job!
