“You’re late,” Flea murmurs, not bitterly. “I missed you.”
Mood shifting, he pulls you into a kiss that’s deep and claiming from the start. His intentions are childishly transparent.
Things have been… weird… since the bogey’s nightmare. Since the fallout. Ted’s feelings, your feelings, Flea’s feelings all twisted up like raw nerves tied in a knot.
Sorry, guys! No Q&A this month. As an apology, please enjoy this glimpse into Ted’s perspective during his time couch surfing with Flea and the detective.

Ted couldn’t sleep. No shit he couldn’t sleep—but even if he wasn’t currently suffering from insomnia-on-crack, he wouldn’t be likely to get much rest on a strange couch, without his wife sleeping beside...

2025-10-19 11:00:09 +0000 UTC View PostIncubus is sitting this one out, since I think I could put "I wax romantical about the smell of Flea's armpits" and it would still beat out every competitor. Next week we're giving another game a chance!
2025-10-12 16:10:25 +0000 UTC View PostFlea fishes his phone out of his pocket and clicks his tongue. “Fucker’s really late now. What are we thinking—no show?”
You’ve already sent a text to the client to no response so far.
“We’ll give him five more minutes,” you decide.
Flea hums in vague acceptance and slouches back in his seat. His legs stretch out, calves brushing against yours under the table. ...

What is your favorite hobby?
"Right now? Learning to crochet is pretty fun—Grace makes it fun, at least. And she only makes fun of my technique, like, half the time. But I’m getting kinda bored now. Might move on t...

2025-09-26 11:29:54 +0000 UTC View PostWith Incubus, I tended to go hard in the planning stage and then dial it back during the writing. I love dark themes, and when I’m in the mood I enjoy really dark themes, but… I don’t know. The real world feels dark enough sometimes. As shitty as Solace is, I don’t want it to be utterly devoid of hope. So, here are some of the darker ideas that I axed:

2025-09-21 11:00:10 +0000 UTC View PostYou dig around in your pocket on the off chance there’s some change rattling around in there somewhere, enough for drinks, or at least a drink to share, when Flea stops you with a hand on your arm.
He leans in close and speaks into your ear, “Hey, I’m the one taking you out tonight. Go get us a booth?”
While he heads to the bar, you scan the club for a free seat. Ma...

2025-08-31 11:51:53 +0000 UTC View PostWe had our first live Q&A on Sunday and it was really fun, and hopefully not too messy! As promised, here is an edited recap of some of the questions and answers for non-patrons who are interested in some extra Incubus and game dev tidbits!
Also, as requested during that Q&A, I have opened a general chat for everyone, free and paid members, if you'd like ...

Since our time zones and schedules are probably all over the place, I'd like to gauge when is the best time for those who are interested in being there. Select all the times that work for you.

These are the notes I originally made for Flea’s design:

2025-08-02 14:47:28 +0000 UTC View PostTed is actually a character transplanted from an old visual novel project of mine that never got off the ground. I loved the guy so much I ended up transplanting him into Incubus.
This older version was different in a lot of ways. This Ted was a disillusioned cop, and his role as the protagonist’s mentor and friend was shattered after an incident in which his leg was permanentl...
2025-08-02 14:37:36 +0000 UTC View Post“So, what did they say? How bad is it?” you ask, hanging up your jacket.
“Didn’t you get my text?”
You did get his text, but the [eggplant] [cat] [arrow] [house] [doctor] [tooth] [ syringe] [scissors] [question mark] [exclamation mark] [fish] [fish] [smiley face] barrage of emojis had been as inscrutable as always. You need him to tell you with his words.
