Ann IF stories

I'm a writer of interactive fiction currently working on two projects. The Boadroom the fatal filth - a complicated love story and The Split.

The Boardroom & The Fatal Filth - A Complicated Love Story (BFF - A Complicated Love Story) DEMO

As the CEO (he/she) of a large heavy-industry company, you could live anywhere. Yet you still reside in a shabby old tenement where you own the entire top floor — surrounded by neighbors who are unsettlingly strange. You go on living, trying to forget that day when everything changed.

You are one of seven friends haunted by a traumatic event from your past — the day Amy fell into a coma.

Over ten years later, her family is planning to disconnect her life support.

BFF – A Complicated Love Story is a slice-of-life romance laced with dark humor and moral ambiguity. Not everything is as it seems.

ROMANCE OPTIONS PATREON

Youth is a speedboat slashing through storm-tossed waves – raw power, reckless thrill.

Old age? A water lily drifting, bathed in sunlight, shaded by swaying reeds and whispering birches.

Somewhere in between lies the vast sea, where restless waters draw sailboats and stately ships into their embrace, rocking them gently to the wind’s quiet melody — until even the grandest vessel becomes a drifting water lily.

Before that day comes, sail through the ocean of life.

Choose your course and find your peace.

Let the water guide you.

MY OTHER GAME: SPLIT

I’m the co-author of Split and the creator of Sieun and Seb and their romance routes.

Chapter 2 Upcoming Update

Hello!

By August 15, Early Access to Chapter 2 will be available on my Patreon. It's definitely going to be over 20k words.

Here's what you can expect:

More company-related events

Brian's party

Smut

You'll also meet a new potential fling for the MC (If a poem was written about them 😉)

So... a lot is about to happen!

[ann-if-stories]

Is simon always a top?

It will depend somewhat on the MC. He can try to push for changes, but for now that's been their dynamic, and Simon prefers it that way.

[ann-if-stories]

Hello, hope you’re having a good Thursday! I just recently stumbled upon your IF, really amazing! I just know I’ll definitely cry more than once as more chapters get released, ugh my poor girl Amyyy T-T

I was wondering, since you’re the author, I wanna know what your thoughts are on disconnecting the life support. From one side, I can get why her family wants her to just rest, but on the other side it’s not fair since there’s still a chance for her to wake up, no matter how small it is!

What do you think? I’d love to know what your take on it!

Thank you so much 😊🧡

But honestly 😭 I don't think I can give a clear-cut answer to your question.

In real life, every situation is different, and I don't believe there's one universal "right" answer when it comes to decisions this heavy.

There are so many personal, emotional, and medical factors involved that even people acting out of love can come to completely different conclusions.

As for Amy's situation specifically, I can't go too deep into it without risking spoilers. So I'll just say it's going to be an emotional rollercoaster 😪 — and yeah, for sure 😭

[ann-if-stories]

Am I reading into things too much or are MC and Simon BOTH jealous of one another's potential affections? MC is thinking Simon is thinking of Eddie and Simon is thinking the same of MC?! Yet they clearly care for each other and do hold affection (unless a MC decides not to).

[ann-if-stories]

Hey Ann! I’m really worried about Melanie I’ve tried so hard but the kinder options are locked, can you help me :,)?

When it comes to Melania, there isn't just one right choice. 🤐 Depending on the options you pick and the decisions you make later, both her fate and certain aspects of the MC's future can unfold in different ways. So even if some dialogue options are currently locked, that doesn't necessarily mean you've failed or that there's only one good outcome. The situation with Melania isn't black and white.

So in this sequel to Split we'll be able to continue with Sieun, right? she's probably my favorite RO of all the ifs I've played, she just has something special 🙏🏻

I'm glad Sieun is one of your favorites. I've had some doubts about whether this AU should be a thing, but these characters are what keep me going. I'm not ready to let them go, and Sieun will definitely be one of my main focuses.

Answering the other questions:

1.

None of Zoe's characters will be in my version. It's AU, not a continuation of Split as a whole.

2.

As for Dominic, he will probably be a full romance option.

[the-split-if]

Hello!

I've started working on a continuation/AU of Split. Why now, while Split is still ongoing? Because some plot threads from the main story and the continuation overlap, and writing them side by side helps me keep the narrative consistent and organized.

I can't reveal too much before the canonical story is finished, but I can say that the AU will continue exploring the direction hinted at in the factory scenes between MC and Dominic. That's why some of that content was tied to my romance routes (sadly, it couldn't really be included in Seb's route as a friendship path), and any further development of that storyline will take place exclusively in the AU.

One thing that's especially important to me is romance. I have a lot of ideas I'd like to explore, some of which may be unexpected for MC. The AU is currently planned to feature two MCs, and their stories will be closely connected.

Sieun and Seb are still my main focus, but there are several other ideas that I think could fit the story well.

(Since I won't be able to give every route the same amount of development, I'd love to know which ones you'd be most interested in seeing. A poly route is also something I've been considering for quite a while. Yeah, eh 😀)

Poll #7 Which romance options sound most interesting to you?

Full romance route with Dominic.

Poly route with Dominic and male Sieun (male MC).

Poly route with Dominic and male Sieun (female MC).

Full romance route with Kate.

Full romance route with Petra.

I'm only interested in the canon romances (Sieun/Seb).

More new female romance options.

A poly route with Seb and another romanceable character.

Thanks in advance!

I think the first part should be out by September 30th exclusively on my Patreon. As for the BFF story, I'm currently aiming for August 30th for the first part of Chapter 2, though it might be ready a bit earlier.

The release dates are a bit spread out because I'm juggling that with work on the final content of Split.

[ann-if-stories]

It makes so much sense that you're half of The Split!! I love The Split so much. Something about your writing, along with Zoe's, draws me to it. I need to play Vertex Fall too.

Yeah, it was a pleasant adventure writing Split together. I'll definitely look back on it with a lot of nostalgia.

What are the main cast's surnames?

Anon, I know it shouldn't be that hard, but I still haven't come up with surnames for all my characters.

Brian Halny

Amy Stepman

Once I decide on the rest, I'll add them here.
