About the Story
When a romance starts to blacken, is it your place to intervene? Lindy navigates her tense relationship with her stepbrother and her strong friendship with her teammate as she watches their relationship grow more and more messy.
Author's Comment: "Words hold a power I greatly respect: the power over one's emotions. A well-told story can tug at the heartstrings, tickle the funny bone, or simply grip a reader so tightly in their investment in the characters. Thus I've always thought stories are a powerful tool for exploring the shadows of human nature as well as the challenging issues of society - or challenging society itself. I wanted to tell a small story about something important, and if it could bring something new or something hopeful to the mind of one person, then it did all I could ask for."

This is a Spring Thing choice based game from a while back. It's a choice-based story about your friend and your stepbrother (a trans man) who get romantically involved while in high school.
This relationship is not a good one. The boyfriend becomes increasingly possessive as your stepbrother draws away from society. Things get physically bad.
The writing is expressive and descriptive but has some typos scattered throughout it. There are enough options that it feels like you have some real agency in the game but that is of course balanced by the fact that you can't always make someone make the right choice in a relationship. Interesting read. Contains some strong profanity.
