Here’s a Brooklyn-made, NSFW Twine story about a Jeb Bush debate tryst

In honor of Jeb! dropping out of the race, we present some interactive fanfic from a pair of NYU ITP students.

What happens when Jeb Bush and Marco Rubio go to debate camp in a mountain lair hosted by Dick Cheney? You might be surprised.
The comic/story, Debate Camp: A romantic horror story, is by two NYU ITPers, Caroline Sinders and Greg Borenstein. It was made in Twine, which is a sort of Give Yourself Goosebumps for the modern age, which allows the reader to pick between various options on each frame of the story, which leads to different plots and endings.

“It started off as a joke,” Sinders wrote in an email. “I started talking about taking a fanfiction and porting it into Twine. It then turned into omg what if I made an anonymous IRC fan fic, and then a friend, Luke Dubois made a joke about republicans doing it, and it spiraled out of control.”
How far out of control? You’ll have to read the story to find out.
Jeb! like you've never seen him.
