Contrasting what I'm sure is the prevailing opinion, Aurynn is absolutely awful. Detest this shitty shifty man and his fucking mind manipulation (that entire interaction solidified and justified my loathing). Really wish we could push back against him, his touchiness and flirting and such, but there's not much allowance for that. Like we're not allowed to actually dislike him in the story, and for such a character I find that really unpleasant and jarring

I do apologize if in any way it has come off that this game has been exclusive of anyone based on their orientation—you may hold me accountable for when I have genuinely messed up in such regards, though that was never my intention. That said, there are more constructive and meaningful ways in which you can phrase your criticisms—thank you. There are a few things you mentioned which I will not change, as they are very specifically related to certain character motivations that I have not yet had a chance to explain given how early on in the game it is, and I first and foremost write for the characters/plot and for myself. The dynamic between mc and Aurynn is in part related to a flawed character perception and in part simply a lighthearted flirtatious platonic dynamic I have enjoyed in other stories between platonic characters. I am one person and it is not always easy to balance several perspectives that players might bring to the game, however I can see how in some ways that dynamic would make certain players uncomfortable and for that I do apologize, as again, it wasn’t my intention, but I should have foreseen some people might not view a platonic flirtation the same way. I will work to restructure the dynamic between mc and Aurynn for players who would prefer not to have a lightheartedly flirtatious platonic relationship, and I will work to better keep in mind that when going forward, and again, I do truly apologize for any discomfort or hurt I caused in that regard.
