Indie game dev be like...

>What Cass *should* do:
- write a list of things she needs to get done tomorrow
- write a list of things she can get done today before 11 pm, in 1h 15m
- do as many of these things as she can
> What Cass will probably do:
- write #otome games

Btw

While writing Fond Familiar, I legit took my temperature because my face was hot, and I didn't know if I had a fever or if I was struck by secondhand embarrassment so hard, I was blushing

It was the latter 😳

Meet #FondFamiliar ML Dr. Dobrovsky! 🩸

Narration: His hands twitch at his sides as if he wants to use them to… to do something.
Narration: His movements are forceful. Frantic. Feverish.
Narration: Famished.
