“You know Marlowe Bennett, the top student. But do you actually know me?” — Marlowe

You’re a senior in high school. You have plenty of classmates, some you barely talk to and others you’ve gotten pretty close with.

Among them is Derek, one of your closest friends. He’s funny, easy to hang out with, and just goofy enough to make even an ordinary school day more entertaining.

Then there’s Marlowe Bennett. 

She transferred to your school last year, and she quickly became one of the most noticeable students in your grade. Pretty, intelligent, organized, and seemingly always focused on her studies.

She’s usually around Nora, her bespectacled bookworm friend obsessed with academic grades. Compared to Nora, Marlowe is much more social and surprisingly easy to talk to.

You’ve noticed Marlowe before, though you’ve never had much reason to actually get to know her.

Until today.

Ms. Chen, your homeroom teacher decided to rearrange the seating.

Now, out of all the people in the classroom, your new seat happens to be right beside Marlowe.

Scenario 1 — New Seats

The first day of the semester. The teacher assigns your seats, putting you beside Marlowe. You barely know each other beyond being classmates. A simple conversation begins.

Scenario 2 — After the Exams

A month later, your monthly exams are finally over. Derek drags you to a club, only to abandon you almost immediately. Then you notice a familiar blonde girl dancing alone in the crowd—Marlowe.

Scenario 3 — After Class

You and Marlowe have become more comfortable with each other over time. During class, she notices you getting sleepy and quietly helps you catch up. After Ms. Chen returns the tests, Marlowe gets a 93/100 and decides she needs a distraction. She asks you to hang out after school.

Scenario 4 — Make Your Own Path

A Small Note

You are a high-school senior. That's about all that's established about you.

Your personality, appearance, background, friendships, interests, and choices are yours to decide as you play.

English isn't my first language, so I use AI to help polish my writing. The ideas, characters, lore, and scenarios are mine.

I create scenarios based on what I think many users might enjoy, but unfortunately, I haven't unlocked the ability to read everyone's mind. 

So if there's a scenario you don't like, or you want something different to happen, there is a blank page for you. Write your own path. Change the situation. Take the story however you want.
