Halfway Broken 118-120 (Patreon)

Edit: Whoops. Realized when I was doing the author's notes that this update is actually through 120. Made edits to fix the file/post names.

Behold! Tis the first of the new updates! Which also means a pair of small notes!

First, I'm not going to be updating the Pinned Post with Master Files every single time as I was previously, instead only doing so when a story is wrapped up for the month. The reason for this is that the Master Files I'm working with now contain bits of the second updates for the month, as I work in fits and starts, jumping between stories. I'd have to make an extra set of Master Files for every single story to keep from leaking bits of the second update for each month in the first update. That's a level of annoying and complicated I don't need and, frankly, I doubt most of you are grabbing the Master Files every time anyway.

Second, you should be getting an alert from Patreon that the pricing for the tiers had changed, per the explanation I've already given in other posts. If you didn't know about it...shame on you for ignoring my polls and posts for an entire month :-p! If you're an existing Patron, this actually won't come into effect until next month, to give everyone plenty of time to decide if they want to bail out or not. Only new Patrons, or those who switch tiers, will be immediately charged the new prices.

With those explanations out of the way, welcome to the first of two 10,000(technically 9,937 in this case) word updates of Halfway Broken this month! This pair of chapters concludes their time on Hightide, and has them moving on to Amazon Lily again...which is also going to involve an unexpected poll that will go up tomorrow -_-.

I can't believe I'm considering it, given I locked the Harem at the current size for a good reason, but my version of Boa is clicking so stupidly and unexpectedly well with Luffy that I am considering allowing her into the harem. Despite my previous denial of that possibility. This runs totally against my own expectations, to be honest, but the way the version of her I've created is working out she honestly clicks better with him than Vivi does...possibly even better than Robin does. Which I purely hate to admit, as Robin is my favorite!

Anyway, the new bits of story are attached here to the post like always, even if I'm not going to update the Master Files in the Pinned Post just yet. I'll get around to adding some author's notes in an half hour or so. Right now, food is calling out to me...
