As writers, was there any idea that you were so excited about when it popped up, that you spent time enthusiastically fleshing it out, only to have another member of the team slam the brakes on it with one of those "Um, am I really the only one who's going to point out that this is a really, really bad idea?"

Damn that voice of reason! :lol:

I'm sure just about every idea that shaked the boat enough got flattened by others. What's "reasonable" is very relative, but being unreasonable is not a reason to not do something.

The 150,000 words of the first Hanako draft.

But it was a good thing that they voted it down. It was silly.

Couldn't be too silly, I mean, it led us to the final product.

I was thinking of instances like one previously mentioned, such as Lilly giving Hanako a yacht in her route, given that her family is filthy stinking rich.

During Lily's route, at what point does she decide to return to Scotland?
Sorry, the context has confused me.

Are you asking why she decided, or when she decided?

Ah, the game never really mentions when she does. It's easy to see she's made the decision already in the scene or two leading up to the reveal, though.

Sorry, just wanted to make sure :)
