man. i uh, didn't expect to feel so much about a porn game, of all things.
let me begin by explaining my first playthrough. i got the Neutral Ending, and it hurt, i'm not gonna lie. especially because of one person.
!! spoilers incoming, if you care about them !!
Aurora's story fucks me up. I have an incredible fear of losing my memories, either naturally and as a result of both early-onset dementia and early-onset alzheimer's. and then, when she talks about herself as if she's happy with being nothing, that she doesn't need her memories, i was just as upset as the MC.
to me, memories are what makes a person who they are. i hold memories more sacred than many things, especially because i'm a forgetful person. memories of my childhood are blurry and inaccurate, and oftentimes i remember something from a dream rather than real life.
so when i finally got the true ending, i got a tad emotional when she was merged and talked like Lina for the first time. that she's happy to form memories for herself, and for others.
thank you, author, for making these games and sharing these stories.
