affection.
In the midst of a blurry night, your longing takes hold, and you seek solace by reaching out to the one who holds your heart captive.
entry for anti-romance jam.
this is a short story with meaningless choices because there’s only one way this ends. you, with a bruise upon your heart.

made me cry, 10/10
I'm sorry. I kept reading the title as 'Affliction!' It wasn't until I looked at your other games, I kept thinking "but where's affliction?" before realising. I still think affliction is a better name for love. haha My brain hurts.
I loved it by the way.
edited because of hurt brain!
Very poetic prose. I feel like I haven't encountered such romantic language in a long time; it's refreshing to dive into, nostalgic almost, and so atmospheric.
Thank you so much! 🥹💗 I'm thrilled that my words resonated with you and evoked a sense of nostalgia. It's always rewarding to know that my writing can transport someone to a different time or atmosphere.
MY THERAPIST WILL BE HEARING ABOUT THIS!! jk this is so good the writing, the tension, and the ending is perfect(by perfect i mean my heart is absolutely broken pay for my therapy) v kewl game!! >:3
Thank you!
Oh gosh, this is so hauntingly beautiful and melancholic, truly enchanting. I have never been in love, less have had a broken heart, yet here I am, crying like I have been the one to suffer from a bruised heart, the lovely emotional writing i love so much from coaaf with the atmospheric music just adds so much to the already bittersweet feelings. I just love short tragic stories, even more if they are as well-written as yours ❤️
aaa thank you so much! 🥹🥹
Loved it! Still felt like romance inside my head:
Thank you! Unfortunately (or fortunately 👀) they won't be kissing 🤭
Fortunately for them, unfortunately for me 😩😆
Your writing is absolutely beautiful! That was so well written and full of emotions I loved it very much
Thank you so much!
This was so so bittersweet,the writing is absolutely beautiful and yet so sad. I got entirely invested even though I knew this would be short
Thank you so much!
Hauntingly beautiful! The music alone broke my heart, but it's such a wonderful piece of writing, it's worth the sadness.
The music was so important, I think it really sets the tone. Thank you!
Damn. Your writing is extraordinary, so beautiful and so full of emotions. <3
Thank youuu 🥹
