Chat with consequences — what that looks like
An example of how a turn plays. The player could just answer the question — instead they gamble:
YouI tell the archivist the truth about the stolen letters — but I claim my sister took them, not me.
"Your sister." The archivist writes the name slowly, the way people write things they intend to check. She thanks you with new warmth — you are, after all, a witness now, not a suspect. Somewhere across the city, your sister does not yet know what you owe her. The archivist will remember who gave her this name.
In an open-ended chat, that lie would just be a fun line. Here it moved a plot: your standing changed, a character gained a grudge she doesn’t know about yet, and the ending you were heading toward is gone.
