Help please,
I creating my story and I want to add one choice, and after that one choice I want the reader to be able to choose a choice but continuing that moment.
I have a background where the main character is texting her friend I want the reader to choose the only choice I have up there then after the next text her friend send I want the reader choose what she want to say next.
I really hope that make sense.
Hey, this is simple and I can totally just write this part of your script for you if you’d like! Just let me know the name of your characters & what the choices are called, and then you can add in the dialogue later!

I just not really up for it today
I don’t know if this is how it was suppose to go but that’s how I did.
After the first one I want the reader to choose between “I guess” or “I’m so ready”.
I want her friend to send a message for the choice I’m so ready, saying NARRATOR (ALICE) that’s great girl.
I see you soon.
lolol I hope I made sense on that too.

#Later in the story, like when your MC and Alice see each other at school,
#You can have Alice ask your MC if she’s okay using the “if” command
#That’s why i put the "gain"s in there
#let me know if you need help scripting that!!

I know you call your main character “MC” in your script, but for the reader I thought it would be better to have it say “YOU” above the texts that the MC sends. All you would have to do is create a character named “YOU,” even if you never use the character aside from phone scenes.
Thank you very much. lolol I will try and remember how to do this if I ever need it again
