Germaine's lungs were burning. Icy rain lashed his body and the violent wind threatened to blow him down from his perch on the scaffolding. Perhaps the contrary natured wind didn't realize it was about to give him exactly what he wanted. His fingers scraped against the frozen metal as he balanced on one foot and edged a little closer to certain death. His heart hammered in his throat and bright lights pulsed in his head.
He took one final shaky breath. Then he let go.

Sequence Break
Charles inserts himself into a dating simulator where the main love interest commits suicide. His main objective is to stop the main character from dying, but he continuously fails at this. He starts doing more drastic things as he resets his game save file repeatedly, but the world cannot handle all the tampering he has done. It's only a matter of time before the code itself fails to continue. TW: Suicide, dark themes, heartbreak, and general sadness. Metanote: Suicide, suicidal thoughts, and the lack of consideration for suicide (usually by people joking about it) has been detrimental in my life, and it's taken away a lot of the spirit in me. This story is not meant to glorify suicide, but rather, to show the constant pain that it can leave people with. I am not saying that those who committed suicide are somehow "evil," but I am saying that there are real-world consequences for those who are left behind. Once you see Charles's story, you will understand what I mean.Complete
