Tough choice that wasn't an official "Tough Choice"
So, in the heat of the moment I buried my hatchet in Sirita's face. I was genuinely worried that it might be the only way to get Kenny moving. I play through the first time blind and don't experiment with other choices or walkthroughs or anything until I'm finished with a season. From my perspective I was mercy-killing Sirita and I honestly thought if I didn't that Kenny might sit there crying until overrun. I thought I was saving his life.
He did NOT see it that way, and wasn't about to let me forget it. He gave me hell about killing his lover for the rest of the season, pretty much. I'm curious who else killed Sirita, and i'd like to hear if he was more readily forgiving to anyone.
SIDENOTE: I also (stupidly) took her arm and when I think about it from her perspective I feel really bad. It must've seemed to her like some sweet little girl went all Texas Chainsaw Massacre for no reason. It must've seemed as if Clem suddenly decided, "I think I'll murder that woman with my hatchet now." Poor thing. She must've been so confused.
ADDENDUM: This thread is also for the discussion of any choices you struggled with that didn' t officially qualify as "Tough Choices."

Wich tool to take on S1E2 and S1E3
Where to sit at dinner.
I axed her face. Felt angry at him for yelling at me. And then forgave him because I would've reacted the same if someone had axed the face of my lover/loved one. (Still doesn't make it right, but I understand why he was angry.)
I axed her arm because I couldn't bear the thought of Kenny losing another loved one. I thought that the risks were worth it. And either way, things were gonna end badly.
To me, the hardest choice (which wasn't meant to be hard) was Sit with Luke v. Sit with Kenny. The only decision in the entire series I paused on.
I was confused for a moment but now I see. Very good. That could definitely make this more interesting
I am officially opening the scope of the thread to include discussion of all of your "unofficial tough choices" also.
"Is he a good guy, or is he just like everybody else?"
I was fucking PISSED at Nick for shooting Mathew. I felt like he was a danger to the group and I thought that maybe letting him live would get somebody else killed. I ALMOST decided to tell him that Nick is like everybody else, but at the last second told him that Nick's a good guy, because I figured that Telltale's writing style wouldn't make it so that having Nick alive would get somebody else killed.
His name was Mathew , Mark was the one eaten by the ST. Johns.
Wups! Thanks, fixing.
