I'm mostly liking the re-work so far and the improved character images. That said I do have some hopefully constructive criticism. The big one is the usage of descriptions in the parenthesis "(giggles a little sweetly)", "(breathes a little uncontrollably)", "(sighs in frustration)". Some of the time these feel over-wrote, like what's the difference between giggling, giggling a little sweetly, or giggling sweetly? Usually just saying "(giggles)" would be enough to get the point across, unless it's for the non-verbal characters, to make up for their lack of dialogue. Other times it feels unnecessary, you don't have to qualify a character's sighs as frustrated because I can see that they are frustrated, sad, nervous etc by the look on their face and body language. It's kind of like if an actor was saying their stage directions out loud with their lines.
Edit: Also it would be nice if there were more save slots/pages.
