Under the surface

I’m pretty sure I’m worthless if I can’t be of service…

Have you played Blades 2?

Actually, not yet. I'm in the middle of a hyperfixation with another fandom, so I've barely touched Choices in weeks.

I'll get there eventually, though. I adored book 1 and I'm sure I'll love book 2 as well. My AuDHD brain just needs a little more time where it's at, then I'll be able to focus better on other things.

I'm a little late to the party, and I only started playing It Lives Within a few days ago, so I probably won't have much ILW content ready in time for appreciation week.

I do want to say, though, how much I'm enjoying ILW so far. For various reasons, the other It Lives books never hooked me. But with ILW, I'm already feeling hooked. I'm having a really hard time choosing between the LIs, which is a good thing. The plot choices also feel weighty and meaningful, which is how Choices should be. Kudos to you, @itlivesproject , for your outstanding work.

All that to say, even if I don't make it in time for this year's appreciation week, there will very likely be ILW content coming from me in the near future.

Given the choice, which Choices MC do you usually pick?

Female!mc

Male!mc

Nonbinary!mc

Depends on the story

As a cis queer woman, I almost always play as a (queer) female the first time around. Then, if given the choice, I'll replay with a male or nb MC (again, usually queer). After that, all bets are off. In some books, I'll play around with different combinations. In others, I do the same thing every time.
