=========================================

Let's be honest, things could have gone a whole lot worse. But here you are now with your mouth full and an otter looking pretty happy with the situation. Time to kick it up a notch.

Kyn seems to want to take the initiative and the lead, but you've already decided that he's yours for the next few minutes, then he can have his turn after.

=========================================

Do you really need any more background story than this?

Yeah, this has taken ages. Real life sort of butted in badly, so I've only been able to do this sporadically. Plus the new Efa rig had some sharp learning curves with Library Overrides

and set up physics. It took ages to figure out how to bake the jiggle physics without destroying all the keyframing for the model as well. Then a bit longer to work out that 

every time you reload the scene, the Proxy of Efa re-enables the jiggle physics, making them go completely mental.

Also learned some of the flaws of Kyns rig, which will need addressing before the next episode.

On the animation side of things, some of this episode looks janky a I got to grips with the new rigs and proxies. Unfortunately one of the tougher sections was Efa getting up and pushing 

Kyn down, so I left it right to the end, so there's a quality jump midway through. I've started to get a better handle on timings for actions as well. The pushing part and later sections 

are a bit better timed. I worked out a method of reducing stuff in the viewport so I can run basic shapes at 30fps in software to block out motions, then do a quick render with all modifiers

off, getting between 3s/frame and 8s/frame, view the output, make changes and rerender until it ran correctly. This also helped to spot general fuckups, so the final 8 hour rendering was

not getting thrown out when a minor issue was spotted, or trying to re-render a small part of a 30s sequence without skipping or duplicating frames.

Lessons learned, etc etc. No vote this time and you're about to see why:

The breakdown of votes are as follows:

Take the lead ( 317 votes / 47.4%)

Let him do some of the work ( 318 votes / 47.5%)

User submitted (34 votes / 5.1%)

This made things really tough. Usually one of the options shoots right into the lead so I can confidently start writing and animating well before the poll closes. This bastard was neck 

and neck all the way through. In the end, I decided the sex scene would just go 50/50 between the two options. Because time was getting on, it got split into 2 parts. This is part 1. 

The next part will be started in the next few days, but obviously there's no need for a vote yet. If it's any consolation, the next vote is going to be a good one! It's the next major decision

in the story and could drastically alter circumstances for both Kyn and Efa. Hopefully it should be a bit quicker than this one. Please let it be quicker.
