I’m enjoying this so far, but a good few times the tenses have tripped me up and now I can’t stop noticing it?? The story is written in simple present tense, so most of the time we use syntax like “Eugene tries”, which I feel like is standard. But every so often we will instead phrase things in the continuous present, like “Eugene is trying” for seemingly no reason? It’s not to convey the prolonged duration of an action, it’s used in place of the simple present tense, and I keep getting snagged on it every time!! I’m enjoying myself but oml this is frustrating.
