Step 2

Step 2 is the Step five years after the events of Step 1. It is divided into five free moments and five paid DLC-exclusive moments which can be purchased in Itch.io and Steam. The said moments are listed below.

Take note that the dialogue and availability of both events and choices will be heavily influenced by the protagonist's personality and relationship with the deuteragonist. Some choices become unavailable the lower their interest level is with him. The player can choose to start any of the moments in no particular order. However, playing some moments will slightly add or change the dialogue in others.

The characters will remember most of the player's choices from the both the current and previous Steps, and will open opportunities or create new dialogue in future Steps accordingly unless reverted. This page will act as a guide of sorts, giving some insights for each moments regarding choices as objectively as possible, and will contain spoilers. Proceed with caution.

Introduction
After the end of Step 1, the main character will be open for customization again except for their skin color, eye color, and last name. The player can then change their personality, interest towards Cove, and additionally customize Cove's appearance and personality to an extent as well. Afterwards, the events between Step 1 and Step 2 will be narrated to the player.

The Step then officially starts with the main character in their room. The player can choose their height for the Step which will affect some of the dialogue and options in the story. A CG will automatically unlock afterwards. Several new characters will be shown for the first time, namely Derek and Jeremy, in that order. The player's fruit skewer choice will slightly affect a possible outcome in Step 3 if they are friends with Cove and chose to eat it with him and Derek. After the encounter with Jeremy, Cove will leave if he is not friends with the protagonist. Later on, the player is introduced to Lee, the main character's cousin.

If the protagonist is friends with Cove, there will be a scene with him visiting them. Depending on the player's choices in Step 1's Grown Up, Elizabeth's dialogue will change if they tell her about this encounter. The player will be presented will meal choices afterwards and opting for the vegetarian or vegan options will also change some options in a few moments. They will then meet Kyra and have lunch with her and Cove in one of the restaurants in Sunset Bird. Which drink the player chooses during this event will slightly affect an outcome in Step 3's Errands. The player will then be asked to elaborate on the protagonist's interests. Once prompted to ask questions to Kyra, picking the last option will immediately end it. After finishing a couple of the remaining scenes, they will be presented with the moment selection screen for Step 2.
