Today, Sel, is a new day my friend. The world is your oyster and today is what you decide to make of it. The day today is Thursday, and it is approximately 4 days from your current deadline on your first contracted art piece, and you still have plenty of work ahead of you before the piece is completed. For the past few weeks you slacked and only worked on your piece every now and then. But you've come to a realisation that you ''need''to get this done, and that not making this deadline with quality work would wreck your career.
But while thinking of this, you also remember that it will be your best friend, Peach's birthday later this week on Friday. And that your girlfriend Jane, as well as your nephew, Jay, have been meaning to spend time with you. You feel bad that you haven't spent much time with them this week, but you also remember your deadline this week which is crucial.
After considering all this, you get up, and debate how you will start off the first day of the last 4 days of your deadline. Anyways, now that you're up and with all this in mind, how do you wish to start off spending your day?
1.''[["Today I'll go and hang out with Jane!"]]''
2.''[["I think today I should be smart and stay home so I can get some work done."]]''
3.''[["Hmmmmm I think today I'll go and hang out with my friends for a bit. I've been wanting to go and hang with them for the past few days."]]''Today, Sel decides to go and hang out with his girlfriend, Jane. He calls her to make sure she's available and has her come to pick him up. They head over to her house to plan out what they're gonna do today and ponder on what they would be able to do on the way there. They throw ideas back and forth when Jane says, "Ok how about this, I'll give you two choices, etiher we can go to Harlington to look around at the arts & crafts shop and just walk around the stores to look around. Or we can just head back to my place, hang out on the couch and just watch a movie or something and just spend the day inside. Whhich would you like to do?"
1. ''[["Hmmmmm perhaps today it'd be fun to get out and go to the store! We haven't been out in a while so that would be fun!"]]''
2. ''[["Uuuuhhm perhaps we can just stay inside and hang out at your place today?? It feels pretty hot out today so I think it'd be best if we just stayed inside today."]]''Today Sel decides to stay home and try and get some work done. He works hard for a few hours and then wonders, "Should I call Jay today to see if he would like to play a game or two of something? It's been quite a few days since I've spent time with him or played anything with him".
1. ''[["Yeah sure why not, lemme go ahead and give him a call."]]''
2. ''[["Hmmmm I better not for today, I have all this work that I should get done so I think I should focus on this instead."]]''Sel decides to hang out with his friends today, but wonders if he should take his slow, but useful gaming laptop in order to try and get some work done while over there.
1. ''[["Yeah sure why not, lemme go ahead and pack my laptop and whatever else I'll need"]]''
2. ''[["Eh, I don't think it'd be worth the hastle of having to carry this bulky case around with me. Perhaps I should just leave it"]]''Sel decides that maybe it would be fun to get out and get some fresh air and walk around the stores a few towns over. So he and Jane head out to Harlington to enjoy their day out on the town, and to enjoy each other's company.
''[[End of Day 1: Jane Ending<-Next]]''Sel thinks about it for a second, and remembers just how hot it is today and thinks that it'd be best to stay inside for today. Jane agrees and excitedly recommends that they binge watch a random TV series or a movie franchise.
''[[End of Day 1: Jane Ending<-Next]]''Sel decides to call his nephew to see if he would like to play some video games or something. He excitedly says yes and they play for a couple of hours.
''[[End of Day 1: Semi-productive Jay ending 1<-Next]]''Sel decides not to play games right now as he feels he should get some more work done today.
''[[End of Day 1: Productive Ending!<-Next]]''Due to this decision, he was able to crank out some more progress on his current works, thus relieving him of some stress. He ends his day feeling ever more confident about where he is in terms of progress, and he feels as though he’ll be alright for once.
''[[Day 2: Alone Productive Day 1 Ending Start<-Next Day]]''After spending the entire day with Jane, Sel heads home to end his day. Happy and satisfied that he was able to spend time with his girlfriend. But on the way home he thought of what tomorrow will bring him, he realizes that he did not get any work done at all today. He thinks, “Oh well, I’ll just try and get it done tomorrow”, while having a slightly worried look on his face.
''[[Day 2: Jane Day 1 Ending Start<-Next Day]]''Sel decides to go ahead and take his laptop over with him to Peach’s house.
''[[End of Day 1: Semi-productive Friends ending 1<-Next]]''Sel decides to not take his laptop, but still hangs out with his friends today as he hasn’t hung out with them in a few days.
''[[End of Day 1: Non-productive friends ending 1<-Next]]''Afterwards, Sel returns to work for the last couple of hours left in the day. Today, he got a couple of things done, but he feels as though he could’ve gotten more done. With this in mind, he looks forward to tomorrow to potentially catch up with his work.
''[[Day 2: Jay Day 1 Ending Start<-Next Day]]''While over at Peach's, Sel is able to get some work done, but not a lot. Due to him smoking while over there and being distracted, he doesn’t get much done, but still has fun with his friends.
A bit later, Sel see's Peach's bong on the bed in the room every one is in. In the back of his mind he debates if he should take a bong hit or not.
''[[Day 2: Friends Semi-Productive Day 1 Ending Start<-"Nah I think I'm ok for now. But Apples it's getting late, let's head home" - Next Day]]''
or
[[Small Bong Rip#1<- Small Bong Rip]]
[[Big Bong Rip#1<- Big Bong Rip]]Sel and his friend Apples go over to Peach’s house and spend the day over there.
They spend their whole just day smoking, listening to music, watching movies, and just being unproductive in general. But all while having fun.
A bit later, Sel see's Peach's bong on the bed in the room every one is in. In the back of his mind he debates if he should take a bong hit or not.

[[Day One: The First Crossroad]]Yesterday, Sel was suprisingly very productive and got a really good amount of work done. The amount of work that got done helped Sel feel less stressed out. So today he feels a bit more free about what he can do with his day. With this freedom, Sel thinks about how he'll spend his day today!
1.''[["Hmmmm maybe I'll try and ask Jane if she'd like to hang out today?!"]]''
2.''[["Perhaps I should try and get some work done today!"]]''
3.''[["Let me see if maybe the guys will wanna hang out and do something today."]]''Yesterday, Sel visited his friends but took his laptop with him to try and do some work as well. While he wasn't all that productive, he did manage to make at least a bit of progress on his work. Knowing this, Sel looks forward to today to see how he'll spend his time today.
1.''[["Hmmmm maybe I'll try and ask Jane if she'd like to hang out today?!"]]''
2.''[["Perhaps I should try and get some work done today!"]]''
3.''[["Let me see if maybe the guys will wanna hang out and do something today."]]''After spending yesterday with Jane, Sel debates what they will do today.
1.''[["Hmmmm maybe I'll try and ask Jane if she'd like to hang out today?!"<- "Hmmmm maybe I'll try and ask Jane if she'd like to hang out again today?!"]]''
2.''[["Perhaps I should try and get some work done today!"]]''
3.''[["Let me see if maybe the guys will wanna hang out and do something today."]]''Yesterday, Sel decided to spend his time being mainly productive and making progress on his work, but he did spend a bit of time playing video games with Jay as well. Overall, he felt great about the amount of progress he did make, but he knows he could always do more. Nonetheless, he looks forward and thinks about what he will do today.
1.''[["Hmmmm maybe I'll try and ask Jane if she'd like to hang out today?!"]]''
2.''[["Perhaps I should try and get some work done today!"]]''
3.''[["Let me see if maybe the guys will wanna hang out and do something today."]]''Yesterday, Sel spent his day with his friends. Mainly being unproductive and just having fun with his friends. He didn't make any progress on his work, but it helped him de-stress at least a little bit. Nonetheless, for today, Sel now debates how he'll go about spending his time today.
1.''[["Hmmmm maybe I'll try and ask Jane if she'd like to hang out today?!"]]''
2.''[["Perhaps I should try and get some work done today!"]]''
3.''[["Let me see if maybe the guys will wanna hang out and do something today."]]''Sel texts Apples and Peach and asks the two of them if they would like to hang out today. Peach says that he needs to work today, while Apples is free today to do whatever. Sel debates on whether or not he'll just hang with Apples today, or wait till everyone can hang together.
1.''[["Eh nah I think I'll wait till we can all hang together, so that we can go chill at Peach's place or go do something together"]]''
2.''[["Yeah sure let's go ahead and do something. We can hang with Peach and the others whenever Peach is off again"]]''Well since Jane seems to be unavailable, I suppose I'll go ahead and see what else I can do today..
1.''[["Perhaps I should try and get some work done today!"]]''
2.''[["Let me see if maybe the guys will wanna hang out and do something today."]]''Today Sel decides to ask Jane if she would like to hang out with him today. She says that today she'll be unable to since she has to work, and then later she'll be busy crafting some pieces she was requested to make. But that maybe another day this week or next week since she'll be busy today.
1.''[["Huh that's alright I understand, I suppose we'll have to hang another time when you're able to. I'll talk to you later then, Love you!"]]''Sel decides to spend the 2nd day till the Deadline being productive and getting some work done. But he debates on what kind of work he should work on.
1.''[["Hmmm maybe today I'll get some more progress done on my contracted piece."]]''
2.''[["I think today I'll go ahead and try and get some portfolio work done!"]]''Sel takes a small, tiny hit from his friend's bong. *glug* *glug* *glug* *bong noises*
He lets out a tiny little puff of smoke, feeling satisfied with his tiny hit.
''[[High Variant Day 1<- Next]]''Sel takes a huuuuuge bong rip, *glug* *glug* *glug* *bong noises* one so big that it sends him coughing seemingly endlessly. After a bit, he composes himself and clears his throat, feeling the huge bong rip he just took.
''[[High Variant Day 1<-Next]]''After taking a bong rip Sel sits back and enjoys the feeling of the high that overcomes him. He sits back and wonders if he should take another bong rip, or not.

or
''[[Small Bong Rip#2]]''
''[[Big Bong Rip#2]]''Sel decides to work on his contracted work today. He fires up his software, and gets to work. He works for hours on end, only taking small breaks here and there. But he eventually gets to the end of the day. A day in which he finally made a lot of progress.
''[[End of Day 2: Productive Ending #1<- Next]]''Today, Sel feels as though he should work on his porfolio a bit. He heads to his desk and takes a seat in his big chair. He cracks his neck and his knuckles and prepares for hours of work.
''[[End of Day 2: Productive Ending #2<- Next]]''Apples texts back saying, "Yeah I think that'd be best. We can save our money and hang later like on Peach's birthday or something". He then texts, "you're coming to Peach's place to hang on his birthday, right?". Sel looks at his phone, with a conflicted look on his face as he debates his answer.
1.''[["Yeah of course man! I could never miss hanging with the y'all on Peach's b-day."]]''
2.''[["Mmmmmm idk man, I'm kinda stumped with stuff that I need to work on at the moment.. But I'll see what I can do to try and make it, no promises tho."]]''Sel and Apples decide to hang out and just head to Apple's house. Once there they sit in his garage and just talk about things. Sel looks around, observing the environment. Looking at all the objects like fishing rods, old tables, old workout equipment, and the copius amounts of beer bottles scattered on the floor. He wonders to himself, when was the last time he actually hung out with Apples here. To him, it had felt like a milennia, but it had not even been a week since his last visit here. Despite this, all of this garage felt foreign to him, but this feeling dispersed over time.
A while into their conversation, Apples asks Sel, "Hey, are you going to be able to make it to Peach's birthday hangout on Sunday?". Sel, feeling conflicted, debates with himself on what to say to Apples.
1.''[["Uuhhh yeah of course man. I couldn't miss hanging out with everyone on a day like Peach's b-day. We've been talking about it for so long now!"]]''
2.''[["Well I don't know man, I feel a bit overwhelmed at the moment with the amount of work I have to do in these last couple of days till my deadline. And with us hanging out right now, I don't know if I'll have time for it. But I'll try and make time for it if I'm able to."]]''After a long day of working on his contracted work, Sel makes a great amount of progress and feels much better about his current position on his work. Seeing how much he's done now, he feels confident in the fact that just maybe, he'll be able to make it to Peach's birthday on Sunday.
''[[Beginning of Day 3: Productive Ending #1 Start<- Next Day]]''Yesterday, was a fairly unproductive day for Sel. His contracted work remains incomplete, all while he was hanging out with his friend yesterday. With tomorrow being the deadline for this contract. Thinking about all this, Sel wonders if he will be able to finish his piece. But also thinks about his friend's and girlfriends, and this responsibility and dedication he feels towards them.
With all of this in mind, Sel wonders how he shall spend his day today.
1.''[[Day 3 Var #6<- "Let me see if Jane would want to hang out today!"]]''
2.''[[Day 3 Var #10<-"Maybe I should stay home and finish up my contracted piece"]]''
3.''[[Day 3 Var#9<- "Let me see if the guys would be down to hang out today"]]''Apples replies, "Awesome! Just lmk that day when you'll be ready, or if you want to hang any time before that just lmk and I'll pick u up. I'll ttyl!". Sel looks down from his phone with an anxious and conflicted look on his face. He would love to hang out on Peach's Birthday, but he feels anchored by what he currently has to work on.
Sel realizes that he's not hanging with anyone today, so he might as well try and get something done today to mitigate the amount of work he has to worry about this week. Sel gets up, heads over to his desk and sits at his computer. He looks at his computer and wonders, "hmmmmm what should I work on today?".
1.''[["Hmmm maybe today I'll get some more progress done on my contracted piece."<- "You know what? Let me go ahead and get some progress done on this contracted work!"]]''
2.''[["I think today I'll go ahead and try and get some portfolio work done!"<- "I think I could try and get some portfolio work done for today."]]''Sel feels bad for saying that he might not be able to make it to Peach's birthday hangout, but he had to tell Apples the truth. He didn't want to over promise in the event he wouldn't be able to make it. Despite feeling bad, he looks forward and decides to try and be productive today. So that he will not have to worry about this work later and could potentially make it to Peach's birthday.
Sel get's up and heads to his workstation and powers up his computer. Once there, he thinks about what exactly he should work on today.
1.''[["Hmmm maybe today I'll get some more progress done on my contracted piece."<- "You know what? Let me go ahead and get some progress done on this contracted work!"]]''
2.''[["I think today I'll go ahead and try and get some portfolio work done!"<- "I think maybe I could try and get some portfolio work done today today."]]''Sel deep down knew that it would be a struggle for him to attend Peach's birthday hangout with all the work he still has to do. But he felt as though he couldn't disappoint his friend and just had to tell him he'd be able to go. Sel keeps up the act and plans ahead in his mind on how he can make this tight schedule work for Peach's birthday hangout.
''[[End of Day 2: non-productive Ending #2<- Next]]''Sel feels bad for even saying that he might not make it to Peach's birthday hangout. But he just had to tell Apples the truth and couldn't feed him a lie. Despite feeling bad, Sel knows deep down that it's best that he says the truth, rather than some lie or half truth.
''[[End of Day 2: non-productive Ending #2<- Next]]''After a long day of working on his portfolio work, Sel makes a great amount of progress but doesn't feel better or less stressed. While he was productive and got a good amount done, it was just for his portfolio and not the contracted work, which is what really matters. Knowing this, he looks forward to tomorrow to see what he can get done then.
''[[Beginning of Day 3: Productive Ending #2 Start<- Next Day]]''Yesterday, Sel had one of the most productive days he could have ever had. He finished the majority of his contracted piece, with only a bit left to finish. And now he's in a great spot to where he can potentially make it to Peach's birthday hangout! "Today, is a new day and full of choices as to how I can spend it!", Sel thinks. "Hmmmmmmm how shall I spend my day today?", Sel says to himself.
1.''[["Let me see if Jane would want to hang out today!"]]''
2.''[["Maybe I should stay home and finish up my contracted piece"]] ''
3.''[["Let me see if the guys would be down to hang out today"]]''After discussing this, Apples and Sel hang out for a few more hours until the end of the day. They chill out listening to music in Apples garage for the remainder of the time and just talked. After which Apples took Sel home. On the way home Sel thought about Peach's birthday and being able to go. He felt overwhelmed about being pulled in one direction from his friends, and in another due to work and his deadlines. He wants to dedicate time to enjoying being with those close to him, but he knows that his career is at stake if he makes the wrong choice. In the end, Sel knows that he must get his things done, and looks forward to the next couple of days in order to get these things done.
''[[Beginning of Day 3: Unproductive Ending<- Next Day]]''Yesterday, Sel didn't get much done for his contracted work sadly. He spent most of his time working on his portfolio pieces rather than the task at hand. But he thinks to himself, "That's alright, if I want to, I can just crank out all this work today and still be able to attend Peach's party tomorrow!".
Thinking about today, he wonders how he should spend his time,
1.''[[Day 3 Var #3<- "Let me see if Jane would want to hang out today!"]]''
2.''[[Day 3 Var #1<-"Maybe I should stay home and finish up my contracted piece"]]''
3.''[[Day 3 Var#2<- "Let me see if the guys would be down to hang out today"]]''Sel calls Jane and asks if she's free today. Jane says that sadly, she has to work today as well and sadly will be unavailable again today. But that tomorrow, she'll be free and can even go to Peach's birthday hangout with you if you'd like. Sel understands, but wonders what to say.
1.''[["Yeah of course baby I'd love to go with you to Peach's hangout! The guys love having you around."]]''
2.''[["Well lets wait and see what the guys say, because I'm not sure if they want is to be just us or if they'll be fine with others coming."]]''Sel decides to spend this final day until the deadline finishing up his contracted work. He spends the entire day finishing up the piece and further polishing it. Making it the best quality possible. With this high quality work, he is certainly going to please his client and this'll certainly help with his reputation as an artist as well.
After finishing up his work, Sel sits back in his chair and decides to finally relax a bit. He looks at the time and realizes that he still has an hour or two until his usual self set bed time, and he wonders to himself what should he do until it is time for bed.
1.''[["Lemme go and do some art work for fun. It's been a while since I've done this just for fun or for non-professional reasons."]]''
2.''[["You know, I'll go ahead and play some games tonight! I think I've earned it with all my hard work."]]''
3.''[["I think tonight I should just head to bed early."]]''Sel messages the group chat and asks his friends if they would want to hang today. Once again, Peach says that he must work today and that he will not be able to hangout. Apples says the same thing, but that they'll both be more than happy to hangout tomorrow on Peach's birthday. Sel understands and says that he'll see them both tomorrow then.
Sel then wonders to himself, "What shall I do today then?".
1. ''[["Maybe I should stay home and finish up my contracted piece"<- "I suppose I could stay home today and try and finish up my contracted work"]]''This answer excited Jane, as you hear her audibly squeal in excitement at the prospect of going to Peach's. She loves hanging with Sel and his friends, so this is something she's looking forward to. She and Sel say their byes and end their call.
After this, Sel wonders to himself, "How should I spend my day then?".
1.''[["Maybe I should stay home and finish up my contracted piece"]] ''
2.''[["Let me see if the guys would be down to hang out today"]]''Jane seems a bit sad about that answer, but ultimately she understands and she'll wait to see what Peach and the others say. But that if she's able to, she'd love to go with you on Peach's birthday.
Sel says,"Of course baby and I'd love to go with you too. But I'll let you know what they say if anything. I'll talk to you later though baby I love you!". Jane replied, "Okay baby hopefully they say yes! I'll talk to you later too, I love you too!". They hang up and Sel sits at his desk, thinking of what else he can do today.
1.''[["Maybe I should stay home and finish up my contracted piece"]] ''
2.''[["Let me see if the guys would be down to hang out today"]]''
[[Beginning of Day 4: Productive Ending #2<- Next Day]]Sel spends the rest of his night playing some of his favorite PC Games. He feels relaxed and feels like he's once again in his element. Like he can just relax and not have to stress about a thing in the world. After he's done with his gaming session, he heads to bed, and prepares for the day he has ahead of him tomorrow.
[[Beginning of Day 4: Productive Ending #2<- Next Day]]Tonight, Sel heads to bed early for once to prepare himself for his big day tomorrow. Tomorrow, is Peach's Birthday, and the deadline date for his contracted work. He has a lot ahead for himself tomorrow, but he feels as though things are in a great, fine place. And that things will be just fine tomorrow.
[[Beginning of Day 4: Productive Ending #1 Start<- Sel heads to bed - Next Day]]Today, is the last day of the deadline and Sel is feeling great. Sel wakes up bright and early and feels prepared to take on the day! The first thing Sel wants to take care of is his contracted work.
He gets out of bed and heads to his work desk. After turning on his PC, he sits down and emails his client who requested the work. He attaches all necessary files to the email and advises his client that the work is done. A few minutes later, the client responds to Sel saying,
"Hi again Sel, this work is fantastic!! It's just as I envisioned it when I comissioned this piece. You did an absolutely great job on this, thank you!! I've sent your payment via PalPay and you should be getting that within the hour. if you don't just let me know, but other than that this will be it. If I need anything else I'll be sure to contract you once more in the future.
Thanks again for your hardwork!"
Seeing this, Sel feels absolutely relieved and accomplished. He did it! He completed the work to a standard the client was happy with. And he made them happy in the process! Finally, all his effort was worth it. And now he's able to hang out with his friends on Peach's Birthday. Finally, things will be good!!
Looking forward to the day, Sel wonders what he should do next now that his contracted work is out of the way.
1.''[["I should go call Jane to make sure she'll be able to come to Peach's today"]]''
2.''[["Let me text the guys to see when we're hanging today"]]''Today, is the last day of the deadline and Sel is feeling great. Sel wakes up and feels prepared to take on the day! The first thing Sel wants to take care of is his contracted work.

''[["I should go call Jane to make sure she'll be able to come to Peach's today"]]''
2.''[["Let me text the guys to see when we're hanging today"]]''Sel decides to text Jane to see if she would like to go to Peach's birthday hangout with him. After texting her, she replies back saying, "Oh yeah I would love to go! I'll go ahead and get ready and I'll meet you over there." Then, "Wait, did you have a ride from Apples or will you need me to pick you up?".
Sel says,
1.''[["Oh uh let me go text him and see if he'll pick me up"]]''
2.''[[Well I haven't asked him yet, but I'll just go with you and we'll meet him there"]]''Sel texts his friend's group chat and tells everyone that he'll be able to hang out today. Peach says, "Hell yeah! Let's do this!". Apples texts, "Wowe I didn't think you were going to come today. Bet I'll pick you up ina bit, get your ass ready". Then Peach says, "Wait Sel, were you going to bring Jane today? I could've sworn she said he was going to come".
Sel says,
''[["Oh yeah that's right she wanted to go as well today. Lemme go and ask her real quick"]]''Sel texts Apples to see if he will be able to pick him up for Peach's party. Apples replies, "Yeah of course I can man, if you need me to I can go get you right now".
Sel says,
1.[["Ah ok so you will pick me up then? Cool, I'll go ahead and get ready right now. Come get me ina few"]]
2.[["Oh ok that's good to know. Just asking since I'm gonna go with Jane and she wanted me to ask you first to see if you'd give me a ride. But I kinda wanna go with her since I haven't seen her in a day or two"]]Jane says, "Oh okay that's fine with me, in that case I'll get ready and I'll pick you up in a minute, oki??". Sel says, "that's fine with me baby, I'll see u ina bit" and gets ready for the day. While waiting for Jane, Sel texts his friends to let them know he's going to the party with Jane, and that they'll be there soon. Jane shortly arrives and she and Sel head off to enjoy themselves at Peach's house.
[[Productive Day 4 Ending #1<- To Peach's Place! - Next]]Sel texts Jane to see if she would like to go to Peach's birthday hangout with him. After texting her, she replies back saying, "Oh yeah I would love to go! I'll go ahead and get ready and I'll meet you over there." Sel says, "Ok baby then I'll meet you there! Drive safe and I love you!".
He then advises Peach and Apples of what she said and says they'll see her there. Apples then tells Sel to get ready and that he'll be there to pick him up in a bit. Sel hurridly gets ready and waits for Apples to arrive. Once he arrives, they drive off to Peach's to enjoy their night with friends.
[[Productive Day 4 Ending #2<- To Peach's Place! - Next]]Jane and Sel arrive at Peach's house and are greeted with many familiar faces. Their close friends, Peach, Apples, Bloom, and Peach's girlfriend Star, are all here alongside a few more of their friends. Finally, everyone is together for once! Now, is the time for this group of friends to relax, and forget about their troubles. An event many of them were looking forward to, and one that some of them needed.
They gather in Bloom's room and everyone takes a seat either on his couch, or on his bed, and a bong is passed around. Everyone is either smoking, conversing, drinking, and even a combonation of all the above. Sel and Jane, having just got there have not done anything but sit down and talk so far with their friends. With this in mind, Sel looks around to see what was around him. Around him he spots a joint, a blunt, and a bong, all of which were available for him to pick up. He decides which he should choose or if he should choose either of them at all.

He takes a couple of huge puffs and ends up coughing. He passes it to his friends and a rotation is started. They all finish the joint and Peach offers for Sel to choose another thing to smoke.
Sel thinks to himself and wonders what to say,
1.''[[Blunt 2<- Let's smoke the blunt next!]]''
2.''[[Bong 2<- Let's smoke the bong next!]]''
3.''[[Day 4 High Ending #1<- "I think I'm good for now"]]''Sel sees the blunt, takes it and lights it. A rotation is started and everyone passes the blunt around. Afterwards, Peach asks you to choose another option for everyone to smoke.

He bigs up the bong, takes a huge rip from the bong *glug**glug**glug* and passes it to Peach. The rotation is started until the bowl is finished, and a couple more are packed until the rotation is complete. After this, Peach asks Sel to choose the next option for them to smoke.

3.''[[Day 4 High Ending #1<- "I think I'm good for now"]]''Suprisingly not smoking a single bit, Sel enjoys his time with his friends and talks about everything with them. He tells them about how he was able to complete his work for his client, but was also able to make time for the party as well. Everyone says how proud he should be and congratulate him on his accomplishment. Feeling happy, he tells all his closest friend's how he loves them and how he's happy he was able to make it today.
In the end, everything worked out for Sel and his friends. After the party, everyone went home safely and said their goodbyes. Sel, driven back home and now at his desk reflects on his choices and decisions. He made time for those he loves, but almost didn't give enough time to his work in some instances. Now seeing how he can balance his time, Sel moves forward and tries to think and plan ahead now. So that no more, will these deadlines cause such stress and mental strain on him.
//''End''//Finally, the remaining deadline of 4 days, comes to a close. So does everyone's highs as well as today's birthday hangout for this group of friends. Everyone enjoyed themselves and had fun. And most importantly of all, Sel was able to make time for both his friends and his work. All while being able to deliver a quality art piece to his client.

''[[Day 4 High Ending #1<- Next]]''With this confirmation, Sel let's Jane know he's going with Apples and tells her to drive safe. Sel then gets ready and awaits for Apples to pick him up. Once he picks Sel up, the two of them head off to Peach's and are excited. Excited for this night of fun, one in which they haven't had in what feels like ages.
[[Productive Day 4 Ending #2<- To Peach's Place! - Next]]Apples says, "That makes sense it's all good man go with your girl. I'll meet the two of you at Peach's and we can catch up there". Sel feels glad that he understands, and texts Jane to let her know that he's going to ride with her. Sel gets ready and then is picked up by Jane. Together they go over to Peach's place and prepare to have a great night.
[[Productive Day 4 Ending #1<- To Peach's Place! - Next]]Apples and Sel arrive at Peach's house and are greeted with many familiar faces. Their close friends, Peach, Apples, Bloom, and Peach's girlfriend Star, are all here alongside a few more of their friends. Finally, everyone is together for once! Now, is the time for this group of friends to relax, and forget about their troubles. An event many of them were looking forward to, and one that some of them needed.

4.''[[Direct End #1<- "Sel looks at his options, and decides to pass for now. For now, he just wants to be in the company of his friends and wants to focus on their conversation" - Direct Ending]]''Sel thinks to himself, "You know, it definitely would be wise of me to at least try and finish up this contracted work today. So that tomorrow I'll be able to make it to Peach's party!". With this in mind, he heads to his desk and prepares his workspace. After turning on his PC and getting his equipment ready, he gets to work.
And after spending the entire day working on this piece, Sel finally finishes it! The piece isn't super polished and could use some refining in certain aspects, but overall, it is now done and is worthy of being submitted as the final work. Knowing this, Sel breathes a sigh of relief. Knowing that now at least he will not have to worry about this and can make it to Peach's part tomorrow.
Looking at the time, Sel see's that it's a bit past his usual self set bed time and decides to head to bed. Tomorrow, is a new day and it will be one that he will remember forever.
[[Beginning of Day 4: Semi-productive Ending #1 Start<- Sel heads to bed - Next Day]]Sel messages the group chat and asks his friends if they would want to hang today. Once again, Peach says that he must work today and that he will not be able to hangout. Apples says the same thing, but that they'll both be more than happy to hangout tomorrow on Peach's birthday. Sel understands and says that he'll see them both tomorrow then.
Sel then wonders to himself, "What shall I do today then?".
1.''[[Day 3 Var #1<-"Maybe I should stay home and finish up my contracted piece"]]''Sel calls Jane and asks if she's free today. Jane says that sadly, she has to work today as well and sadly will be unavailable again today. But that tomorrow, she'll be free and can even go to Peach's birthday hangout with you if you'd like. Sel understands, but wonders what to say.
1.''[[Day 3 Var #4<- "Yeah of course baby I'd love to go with you to Peach's hangout! The guys love having you around."]]''
2.''[[Day 3 Var #5<-"Well lets wait and see what the guys say, because I'm not sure if they want is to be just us or if they'll be fine with others coming."]]''This answer excited Jane, as you hear her audibly squeal in excitement at the prospect of going to Peach's. She loves hanging with Sel and his friends, so this is something she's looking forward to. She and Sel say their byes and end their call.
After this, Sel wonders to himself, "How should I spend my day then?".
1.''[[Day 3 Var #1<-"Maybe I should stay home and finish up my contracted piece"]]''
2.''[[Day 3 Var#2<- "Let me see if the guys would be down to hang out today"]]''Jane seems a bit sad about that answer, but ultimately she understands and she'll wait to see what Peach and the others say. But that if she's able to, she'd love to go with you on Peach's birthday.
Sel says,"Of course baby and I'd love to go with you too. But I'll let you know what they say if anything. I'll talk to you later though baby I love you!". Jane replied, "Okay baby hopefully they say yes! I'll talk to you later too, I love you too!". They hang up and Sel sits at his desk, thinking of what else he can do today.
1.''[[Day 3 Var #1<-"Maybe I should stay home and finish up my contracted piece"]]''
2.''[[Day 3 Var#2<- "Let me see if the guys would be down to hang out today"]]''Today, is the last day of Sel's contracted work deadline. The work he was making is essentially complete and he is ready to turn this into his client. But he feels unsure and conlicted about turning this piece in. On the one hand, it is complete and it technically is ready to be turned in. But on the other, he feels as though it does need some additional polish and adjustments. Despite this, he is ready to turn in this piece and to just get this project off his hands.
Sel gets up, heads over to his desk and emails his client. In the email, he attaches the work and everything else the client needed. After an hour or two, the client gets back to Sel with some of their concerns. While they do like the piece in it's current state, they do feel as though it does need to be adjusted in some areas and would have liked certain aspects to be more polished. Nonetheless, the client is happy to take it as is as they cannot wait any longer past the deadline. They tell Sel the ddetails about how he will receive payment, and that's the end of their discussion.
Feeling a bit defeated, but somewhat relieved, Sel reflects on this experience and about how his choices got him here. While he was able to complete his work and make time for Peach and his friends. The work he produced wasn't up to par with his personal quality guidelines, so he felt fairly disappointed in himself. Sel says, "From here on, I need to start making smarter and wiser decisions. My reputation as an artist is important to me and is important to my future career. So I cannot be sacrificing it any longer like I have been". With this statement in his heart, Sel looks forward to today. A day where he can finally kick back, and relax.
Sel then wonders to himself, "What should I do now?".
1.''[[Day 4 Var #1<- "I should go call Jane to make sure she'll be able to come to Peach's today"]]''
2.''[[Day 4 Var #2<-"Let me text the guys to see when we're hanging today"]]''Sel decides to text Jane to see if she would like to go to Peach's birthday hangout with him. After texting her, she replies back saying, "Oh yeah I would love to go! I'll go ahead and get ready and I'll meet you over there." Then, "Wait, did you have a ride from Apples or will you need me to pick you up?".
Sel says,
1.''[[Day 4 Var #3<- "Oh uh let me go text him and see if he'll pick me up"]]''
2.''[[Day 4 Var #4<- Well I haven't asked him yet, but I'll just go with you and we'll meet him there"]]''Sel texts his friend's group chat and tells everyone that he'll be able to hang out today. Peach says, "Hell yeah! Let's do this!". Apples texts, "Wowe I didn't think you were going to come today. Bet I'll pick you up ina bit, get your ass ready". Then Peach says, "Wait Sel, were you going to bring Jane today? I could've sworn she said he was going to come".
Sel says,
''[[Day 4 Var #5<- "Oh yeah that's right she wanted to go as well today. Lemme go and ask her real quick"]]''With this confirmation, Sel let's Jane know he's going with Apples and tells her to drive safe. Sel then gets ready and awaits for Apples to pick him up. Once he picks Sel up, the two of them head off to Peach's and are excited. Excited for this night of fun, one in which they haven't had in what feels like ages.
[[Semi-productive Day 4 Ending #2<- To Peach's Place! - Next]]Jane says, "Oh okay that's fine with me, in that case I'll get ready and I'll pick you up in a minute, oki??". Sel says, "that's fine with me baby, I'll see u ina bit" and gets ready for the day. While waiting for Jane, Sel texts his friends to let them know he's going to the party with Jane, and that they'll be there soon. Jane shortly arrives and she and Sel head off to enjoy themselves at Peach's house.
[[Semi-productive Day 4 Ending #1<- To Peach's Place! - Next]]Sel texts Jane to see if she would like to go to Peach's birthday hangout with him. After texting her, she replies back saying, "Oh yeah I would love to go! I'll go ahead and get ready and I'll meet you over there." Sel says, "Ok baby then I'll meet you there! Drive safe and I love you!".
He then advises Peach and Apples of what she said and says they'll see her there. Apples then tells Sel to get ready and that he'll be there to pick him up in a bit. Sel hurridly gets ready and waits for Apples to arrive. Once he arrives, they drive off to Peach's to enjoy their night with friends.
[[Semi-productive Day 4 Ending #2<- To Peach's Place! - Next]]Apples and Sel arrive at Peach's house and are greeted with many familiar faces. Their close friends, Peach, Apples, Bloom, and Peach's girlfriend Star, are all here alongside a few more of their friends. Finally, everyone is together for once! Now, is the time for this group of friends to relax, and forget about their troubles. An event many of them were looking forward to, and one that some of them needed.
They gather in Bloom's room and everyone takes a seat either on his couch, or on his bed, and a bong is passed around. Everyone is either smoking, conversing, drinking, and even a combonation of all the above. Sel and Jane, having just got there have not done anything but sit down and talk so far with their friends. With this in mind, Sel looks around to see what was around him. Around him he spots a joint, a blunt, and a bong, all of which were available for him to pick up. He decides which he should choose or if he should choose either of them at all.

He vents to him about his decisions and about how he turned in a barely complete piece. His friends hear him out and comfort him on the result. Saying that, "At least it was complete" or "It could've been worse". These answers, somewhat comfort Sel about how his piece ended up. But in the back of his mind he can't help but feel as though he could've done better.
As the party comes to a close, Sel and his friends say their goodbyes, and everyone heads home. On the way home, Sel reflects upon these past 4 days and wonders how he could've spent his time more wisely. He thinks to himself and how he slacked, and put time towards other things instead of what was important. This is what got him into this "situation" and he knows it. But now with this incident in mind, Sel loks forward to the future to be a better him. A "him" who plans ahead better, and tackles these types of deadlines better. In the end, Sel took this whole experience as a lesson, and is now looking to better himself and become better for his future clients.

He spends hours working away at this piece, but with having not done much the past few days, he still feels behind. At the end of the day, it feels as though Sel barely got half way done on the rest of the progress he has left.
With all the work he still has to do, it looks like Sel will not be able to attend Peach's party tomorrow after all. After realizing this, a pit grows in his stomach and he starts to feel anxious. This anxiousness feels crippling and stops Sel in his tracks. He thinks about some of the promises he made, but also thought about how he said he may not be able to come. Despite this, he still feels incredibly bad about not being able to make it.
He texts both Jane and his friends and breaks the news to them. Jane says, "Awh hey that's ok baby I understand. It is your fault for going out so much instead of staying home and working on this specifically, but I understand and I'm fine with you staying home tomorrow to finish it. Just finish it ya big dummy, ok? I love you pls don't let this get you too down <3". Then Peach texts Sel saying, "Ow man that's a bummer :( I was really hoping you'd make it tomorrow man.. That's alright though of course we can always hang out another time and make up for it later. You just stay home and try and get your stuff done, ok man? Don't worry about me, I totally understand that you need to get this done.". And Apples says a very similar statement.
Even after telling his friends and them saying that it's ok if he doesn't go, Sel still felt terrible and felt fairly sad. He was excited to go and was really looking forward to spending time with his friends. But he realizes that it's his fault in the end, and no one elses. Sel takes responsibility and plans on getting this done tomorrow. After all this thinking, Sel heads to bed and looks forward to tomorrow to get this work done.
[[Beginning of Day 4: non-productive Ending #1 Start<- Sel heads to bed - Next Day]]Today, is the last day of Sel's deadline for his contracted work. He still has a bit of a ways to go on his progress for this final contracted piece and plans on finishing this today. As soon as Sel wakes up, he drinks some water and heads to his desk to get to working.
Today, he has no choice but to stay home and get to work. He would love to go out with Jane and his friends today, but he desperately needs to get this work done. So he buckles up, and gets to work for the next few hours.
[[Day 4 semi-unproductive Ending #1<- Next]]After a long 12 hours, Sel finally finishes this contracted art piece. The quality of the piece, is something that he's not totally pleased with. He looks and sees all the imperfections and areas that really need some work. Despite this, he knows he has to turn it in no matter what imperfections or mess ups he sees. As it's just a few hours out from the day being over and he needs to email this to his client asap.
Sel emails the client and sends him all the work he has up until this moment, and awaits his reply. The client take a little while to get back to him, but after that while he emails back saying, "Hi Sel! This pieces is.. a bit underwhelming to say the least. It is of quality that is suitable for my needs. But I was expecting for a bit more of a polished product and something that was more "finished", I suppose. This will do for now though, as I do not have time to wait past today. So I'll take it as is and you'll receive your payment online. But in the future, ''IF'' we ever work together again, please, try and provide a fully polished, final product."
This feedback crushed Sel's spirit. He knew everything the client was saying was right, but he still couldn't bear the hurt the feedback brought. He broke down in tears, feeling like a failure and feeling as though he did terrible. After settling down, Sel thinks to himself and reflects on the choices he made. He knows that he personally messed up and that there's no one to blame for this but himself. With this in mind, Sel starts to think of how he can change how he manages his time. And how he can be more effecient over all to be a better artist.
In the end, Sel wasn't able to make it to Peach's party or hang with his friends today. But his looser choices earlier in the week caused this to happen in the first place, and he knows that. So now looking forward, Sel confidently plans on doing better on his previous mistakes. And with certainty in his mind, will do better to please those close to him as well as any future clients that come his way.
