I came across this writing site: Storio (storioai dot com). You can build interactive novels with decision points and art scenes. Just thought I’d share in case others might like it too.

A quietly powerful work that unfolds with emotional resonance and narrative confidence , this story draws the reader into a world both fantastical and deeply personal. Its strength lies not only in the compelling plot but in its unflinching exploration of trauma, connection, and identity. The writing moves with the rhythm of memory and revelation, balancing lyrical introspection with moments of raw, visceral tension. Scenes shift seamlessly between tenderness and unease, capturing the delicate balance between light and darkness that defines so much of the human experience. It lingers not just as a narrative, but as an echo of something truer beneath the surface.

It’s crazy to think I first found this fic when I was a senior in highschool. It’s well over a decade later and I’ve reread this whole story start to finish at least half a dozen times now. Each new chapter is a treat that honestly makes my day.

This couldn't have been a very easy chapter to write, even though not much plot movement happens. Writing dialogue that can't be two way is easier said than done but i think it was well done.
I also enjoy that I haven't the slightest clue about who is going to win this battle. I could see it going either way, or even a blowout, but i don't think that's likely.
Absolutely thrilled you're back and that life is going so well for you.

Man, how time flies. Congrats on your third!
Ash's Monologue at the start, his internal thoughts... They're valid reasons and fears... but it's good to see he realises that he's come so far too.

Just a thought, but maybe an oversight.. didn't ash leave his pokedex on goodshows desk when he quit? How did his mother manage to track him using it?

It's almost unbearable how little knowledge the author has of this show. It's like they never watched it, since all the characters are out of character, except for a few instances. The horrendous moments seem to always be followed by a well-written section to keep you engaged for a few seconds, but right after that, it's back to the characters being annoying and hard to deal with. I can't with this inconsistency.

I really felt this chapter shows the complex dynamic between Misty and Ash.

It took me a while to read this story because I couldn't read pass the first chapters, but when I did - I was vlown away! When the Master was first mentioned, and he left a letter and gift for Ash, I thought "Could Ash be his son?" Most of the time, when authors include Red in their stories, this is the case. I'm sad about it because it means Red didn't end up with his own version of Misty again. But that's okay! Ash is with Misty in this story anyway!
Then Red went ahead and mentioned his "girls," and even before Ash began asking himself about it, my mind was already churning. I was beginning to get excited! What if his "girls" were the Cerulean Gym sisters? Then they began talking about their dad bringing them to places and spending his time with them. My mood went down again because if it's true that Red hid them for protection, he wouldn't spend his time with his family out in the open unless all of their memories of their dad was before they were hidden.
I love Ash and Misty's story! It's very beautiful. But if Red and Misty really did end up together in this universe, I would cry. All versions of Misty deserved a love returned. Thabk you for this story! Can't wait to read the next update!
