After picking up a mysterious unidentifiable box of tea at her friend's tea shop, bookstore employee Margaret de Campos finds herself transformed into a mouse girl!
— Major spoiler warning! —
During one route, Margaret's coworker Sylvia drinks some of the tea and ends up transformed into a snake, which inexplicably also grants her hypnotic powers. While encouraging Margaret to go on a shopping spree on Sylvia's dollar, Sylvia accidentally hypnotizes her, and the shopping spree draws out a new persona which is more confident and interested in fashion, in an imitation of Sylvia's own personality. Initially extremely upset by this development, Margaret consents to Sylvia's hypnosis again in order to get rid of this new persona, but decides at the last second to allow her (now renamed Peggy) to persist, with the two creating an uneasy alliance via a contract to ensure fair sharing of their body and avoid unintentional switches.
Depending on your choices, the rest of Sylvia's route proceeds in one of three primary ways - one version sees Margaret and Peggy remain a team indefinitely, another sees Margaret and Peggy eventually fuse consensually to become Maggie, and another sees Margaret reject Sylvia's help before being rehypnotized and falling into isolation with Peggy still present, to unclear long-term results.
While the developers of the game have stated that they did not initially intend for Margaret and Peggy to be read as plural due to their unfamiliarity with the topic, they have openly acknowledged the interpretation and worked with community members as sensitivity readers on the topic during development.
