I'll generally throw in a moan or other noise here and there, but not excessively. The occasional "Mmm," or "Ohh," or "Ahh!" can help convey the...
Frequently, when I'm reading/writing on CHYOA, I'm literally masturbating. I don't need to figuratively masturbate by "liking" my own chapters....
I've finally found my model for the "Maid of Silk"! It was much harder than I thought it would be to locate suitable picture sets of a Japanese...
In the actual story I’m writing, I think that maybe something along the lines of “Trust your comrade” will work. If this were a regular, linear...
