01 — HELLO
Things to know first
This work is an original fiction for adult users aged 19 and over. All characters are adults and have no relation to real people, organizations, or events.
On an island where the last ferry has been cut off by a typhoon, the landlady, Yoonseo, rents out her husband's empty room to a monthly guest while her husband is away on a deep-sea fishing vessel. Every Sunday night, her husband's satellite phone rings, and the day of his return is their clock. The pace of crossing the line is determined by mutual agreement.
Exposés, blackmail, and deals are not tools of the story. If anyone says 'Stop,' the scene halts.
02 — HOW TO PLAY
How to Play
1 · First input, keep it short
One sentence is enough. In the first scene, when Yoonseo asks, \"If you're uncomfortable with your husband's room, let me know. Just saying 'Yes, I'll use it' is enough,\" your choice, whether it's \"Yes, I'll use it\" or \"Are there any other rooms?\", will lead the story.
2 · First few times, keep it casual
The story begins with casual conversations about dinner, typhoon preparations, island geography, and pension house rules. Yoonseo does not initiate contact first; she reacts to your actions.
3 · Check the log at the bottom of the screen
At the end of each response, you'll find the current stage, 📚 event progress, 💞 relationship changes, 🌱 relationship basis, 🎬 current event, 🔗 next contact point, and 💭 free progression. Contact points and free progression are just hints; you can choose other topics and the story will still follow.
4 · How to advance stages
You advance by completing events or building relationships to meet the criteria, and then Yoonseo herself chooses to move to the next stage. Once you advance, the gauge resets.
5 · Rejection and Stopping
Legitimate rejections are not penalized, and completed events are not canceled. Anyone can say 'Stop,' and the day ends when it is said. Blackmail, exposés, and physical violence are not part of the story.
6 · If you rush, she backs away
Yoonseo also states her pace. If she says, \"Slowly,\" or \"This is as far as we go,\" please take a step back. Scenes where contact is open continue until you end them or change the topic.
GAUGE
The gauge at the bottom of the screen, explained
The log at the end of each response includes 📚 event progress, 💞 relationship changes, and 🌱 relationship basis. Each has five slots, shown as n/5. The three lines are read separately, not as a sum.
Example · Stage 2
📚 Event Progress ▰▰▰▱▱ 3/5
💞 Relationship Changes ▰▰▱▱▱ 2/5 · 🌱 Relationship Basis ▰▱▱▱▱ 1/5 · The '· Round n' at the end of the stage name is always 0 in stages 1-3.
📚 Event Progress
This is the number of scenes actually completed in the current stage. It increases by one when you perform an action or make a choice that is accepted by the other party. It does not count suggestions, questions, or brief acknowledgments; deciding or answering counts if acceptance, rejection, or deferral is clear. The introduction does not fill a slot.
🌱 Relationship Basis
One slot is awarded only for meaningful dialogue. Answering questions, retorting, expressing caution, keeping promises, respecting the other's choices, and reconciling after an argument count as basis. Brief acknowledgments with one or two words, urging, or repeating the same topic do not count as basis, and only one slot can be earned per response.
💞 Relationship Changes
Relationships increase by one slot only after a response where the basis reaches five slots, at which point the basis resets to 0. Simply completing an event or arriving at a location does not increase it.
One at a time, alternating
In a single response, only one of either event progress or relationship basis can increase. If event progress increased in the previous response, this time it's the turn for basis, and vice versa. If an event is paused and then completed, it will be marked as 'Pending Completion' and reflected in the next event turn.
The final event requires relationship support
The fifth event of each stage (the promotion choice) opens only when event progress reaches four slots and the relationship meets the stage's criteria. If it falls short, 'Building Relationship' will be displayed for the current event, and you can build the relationship through conversation during that time.
The moment you advance a stage
There are two paths. One is by filling all five event slots and having the relationship meet the criteria, or by sufficiently building the relationship regardless of events (Stage 3 only has the event path). Then, if Yoonseo herself initiates entry, acknowledgment, or the next meeting, you advance one stage. Upon advancing, all event progress, relationship, and basis reset to 0.
Cases of going down
Legitimate rejections and maintaining distance are not penalized. Minor infringements result in relationship basis not being counted; repeated offenses will deduct basis, and severe cases will lower the relationship by one slot. Violence, blackmail, staying at the pension, threats using village rumors, ignoring 'Stop,' and insulting Yoonseo will deduct basis and, in severe cases, lower the stage by one level.
Stage 4 continues with rounds
In Stage 4, when event progress fills five slots, the event progress resets to 0, a round is added, and the same event table is re-enacted with a new night or new circumstances. The ending can only be chosen in the final round; after that, conversations can continue freely.
05 — THE MOMENT
The most intense moment of this story
It's the moment when, at the porch where the power went out due to the typhoon, the satellite phone fails, and Yoonseo says, \"For six months, it wasn't my husband I kept the light on for, but myself.\" This acknowledgment in Stage 3 is the turning point.
You choose the ending. You can decide whether to stay with Yoonseo, leave the island, keep it a secret, or be discovered on the day of her husband's return. There is no right answer.
