Unresolved Questions

Were there any plot points or character arcs that you felt were left unresolved or could have been explored further?

Alternate Ending

If you could change one thing about the ending of "Yours Truly" what would it be and why?

Adaptation Dreams

If "Yours Truly" were to be adapted into a movie or TV series, who would you cast in the main roles?

Fake Dating Chronicles

Briana and Jacob pretend to be a couple at family events and play hospital board games together. If you had to fake-date someone for a week, what fun excuses or tactics would you use to convince everyone?

Anxiety on the Record

Jacob openly manages his social anxiety—planning ahead, journaling, bringing houseplants into his space. How did seeing his coping strategies resonate with you? Did any feel familiar or maybe open your mind to new ways to support someone you know?

Pain, Growth, and the Mosaic of You

A key theme: we’re all mosaics made of broken—but sometimes beautiful—pieces. Which cracks or scars in Briana’s or Jacob’s stories felt the most meaningful? How do their journeys reflect your own patchwork of past experiences?
