So, here's a WILD fukkin' theory...
What if, this whole time, the reason John's been sorta grooming
the MC (your name here), and had no worry about you getting close to his wife, was he has secretly been
your father this whole time?
He knew who you were, but Nicole didn't know who you were.
You are also NICOLE's son, that she thought had died (
or gave up, but died works better). And John made it seem like you were dead, cuz he wasn't ready to be a parent yet, yadda yadda... Parents adopted you, and John eventually reached out to them recently to declare who he really is, thus they keep you away from him, AND especially Nicole, as they know she's your mother. That could explain Nicoles reaction: last night, she discovered who you REALLY were, and was torn... but in the end she was like "Fuck it, I love my son." Then this also brings the TITLE of the story:
"A Mother's Love" -around full circle, and may be the biggest/most shocking TWIST, in all of Gaming... right up there with Samus taking her helmet off, and "
Would You Kindly?" from
BIOSHOCK!
+Also this means,
Chloe is your sister... for even more complex emotions!
INCEST Fans would love this, everyone else... probably
not!
The only hole in that theory, is why would he let his own son date
his daughter, but he's a sick and twisted fuck, who knows what goes on in his head... just thought I'd throw that (
wildly unlikely) possibility out there.
Incest is still the most popular sub-category around these parts (
albeit hidden behind patches) if you really take stock of the top, major titles...
Let that marinate, and fester.
Enjoy the rest of your day, week, month...
