VN Ren'Py Being a DIK [v0.10.1] [DrPinkCake]

[311]

But does she really bully Maya out of pure sadism or just to get the MC's attention ?

It's kind of twisted game between her and the MC. The whole Barbie and Ken dolls thing is a perfect allegory of their dynamic. Each time Quinn mocks Maya, Maya never dares fight back or protest but each time The MC has the opportunity to act as the shiny white knight and Tell Quinn to fuck off. Even Derek isn't so protective. Each time Quinn posts means comments on the cluck, The MC has either the opportunity to roast her or to support Maya. In both cases, Quinn automatically responds and mocks the MC's protective attitude.

It's never really about Maya but about the MC's reactions. She likes teasing him and on the roof even admitted comebacks are the best part about teasing him. She even enjoyed MC's anger issues. Maya is just a tool to play with him. When she scolded Maya after the cumpetition, she's surprised and confused if the MC chooses to let her continue, indicating she clearly expected a reaction.

She's so twisted, she can't handle her attraction for the MC like a normal girl would. If he tries to be sweet with her, she either gets angry or troubled. So bullying Maya is a sick way for her to make a connection with the MC and get his attention. She's more twisted and deranged than bad. That's part of her charm

Spot on mate. Exactly how i feel about her.

Yes, in the domestic violence situation, they arrest the POS but these cases sadly fall apart once they get to the station because the woman (it's always a woman) is so terrified that a court won't send her abuser away for life that she refuses to co-operate, leading them to drop the charges because to pursue the case would be a waste of resources.

Cool.

Also cool

Blame it on the DA or ADA. The cops have the authority to arrest someone and hold them for up to 72 hours without any charges filed. However, the DA/ADA has to decide if it's worth it for him to spend part of his budget to actually try the case. Unfortunately due to overcrowding/budget constraints a lot of criminals go free because it isn't worth the expenditure of assets to take someone to trial when it gets reduced to a hand slap. Our wonderful justice system at work.

Edit - If you actually want to continue this, maybe move it to PM so we don't get in trouble for Off Topic

I would want to see your discussion, i always appreciate a trade of different ideas between parties. I already finished my point in this, but expectating others discuss their points is always more delightful~

But there's the Off topic thing too. Welp, have a good one you two.

TL;DR.

We're back in the rabbit holes again.

Do we know Ashley is involved? I know she was crying in Ep. 5, but we don't know why.

As for Maya, I like to think that Quinn has finally realized the obvious, that Maya isn't that type of girl and it's not going to fly. If anything the Mona situation should make her be more careful about who she tries to bring into the fold.

Something has been bugging me about the restaurant that makes me question Quinn's planning (or DPC's storyboard). Lily, Ashley, Maya, Josy, Mona, Camila are all daughters (DIK equivalent of maggots), which means they are still pledging. Why are Mona and Camila accepted as permanent employees of the restaurant? Is the scavenger hunt a red herring and the girls are actually confirmed addition of the HOTs? Shouldn't the restaurant affair be kept in the loop in case the daughters do not get accepted? Does being an employee guarantee free tuition, leaving aside the question of whether the funds are enough?

I have max points and Chick attitude and they said no to me too so I don't know. Too bad but I will get Jill it's my favorite x)

Btw guys who is your favorite love interest in the game so far ?

Forever Sage.

 

[NOVASSR]

Exactly what i have to do to get rejected by Maya and Jossy? Having neutral/chick affinity and havin low points with they and thats it?

 

[MrFriendly]

Forever Sage.

I love Redheads but her devotion to Chad has me hesitant... Might go for Jill or Bella when all of this ends.

She is just temporary blinded, she will see the light at the end of the tunnel. I love Jill too. Bella... am a bit worried she will pull a Leah on me.

 

[GottaLust]

This game is definitely one of the best games on the platform. The plot and graphics are so damn good! Unfortunate that we have to wait a couple of months for the next update, but is definitely worth the wait.

I don't know, I feel like Sage is just going to break the MC's heart. She's a senior while he's a freshman. Can't really believe she's going to postpone her life and wait 3 years for him. I don't know what year Jill is but at least Bella, though an older woman, is an employee at the school. Though she could absolutely break the MC.

All of them has the potential to break MC's heart. Jill is at least in 2nd last or last year as well. Bella is married. Josy and Maya are lesbians.

True, true. Just don't see Sage wanting to wait around. We shall see. I doubt that this game will be 4 years of college... Unless DPC is making the longest game ever?

Why would Sage have to put her life on hold for the MC?....she can carry on dating him while he is studying and she is working or whatever, Jill has money so no problem there, Bella being married does pose a problem depending on if the husband comes back or not.

That assumes that Sage will move on from Chad and become serious with the MC. Then that she is either 1) a local resident and/or 2) willing to stay in the area and look for work. As long as Jill has access to her money she's fine. Bella is a puzzle box of emotion and I don't know how that will end up.

Actually i think on Sage as the most "realistic" LI of the game, Bella is married and a teacher , Jill's family are most likely to not approve their relationship, and pretty hard that the polyamorous relationship with Maya and Jossy is going to work in a long term, unless you standard for not having a hearthbreak is getting married and having childs if thats the case, yeah any LI is a good option for the MC

Something has been bugging me about the restaurant that makes me question Quinn's planning (or DPC's storyboard). Lily, Ashley, Maya, Josy, Mona, Camila are all daughters (DIK equivalent of maggots), which means they are still pledging. Why are Mona and Camila accepted as permanent employees of the restaurant? Is the scavenger hunt a red herring and the girls are actually confirmed addition of the HOTs? Shouldn't the restaurant affair be kept in the loop in case the daughters do not get accepted? Does being an employee guarantee free tuition, leaving aside the question of whether the funds are enough?

Quinn's criminal empire is extremely poorly explained, so we can only speculate. That said, it's pretty clear that it may operate within the HOTs, but it is not the same as the HOTs.

Quinn planned to add Camila to the restaurant from the start, so she started working as soon as she pledged. Maya and Mona look like later additions, as the first indication Quinn was considering adding them to the restaurant was in Episode 3 in the pool scene, where Mona leaps at the chance for free tuition and Maya equivocates. Prior to that Mona isn't really mentioned and Maya seems to have been more about making her behave in degrading ways. It's possible Quinn thought that would be a good way to coerce Maya into the roll, but it's also possible Quinn decided to expand once she realized she was going to come up short.

My guess is that Quinn is either confident Mona will be accepted (she did create their list, after all), or would be willing to keep Mona in the racket even if she doesn't make it into the HOTs. So Mona was given an 'official' assignment at the ANO party (which then went sideways). It's less clear what Quinn's planning for Maya, but my guess is that the reason Maya had all those sexual tasks was so Quinn would know if she could really go through with it. So she's holding off on informing Maya about the restaurant until Quinn sees how she handled the scavenger hunt.

Lily, Ashley and Josy only pledged the HOTs halfway through Hell Week, and it's still not clear if they are going to be added to the menu. The way Melanie and Sarah treat Lily and Ashley in the sauna could be an example of grooming the new daughters for it, or it could be the two HOTs indulging their crueler side. Josy is even less clear. My guess is Quinn only accepted her to tweak Tommy, and Quinn has no plans for her beyond that. It's a bit hard to square that with partnering her with Maya, but that may have been unavoidable.

Now, IMHO all of this is pretty stupid, but then again, that's exactly what Riona says to Quinn. It seems clear that Quinn isn't actually all that good at running drug and prostitution rackets. Perhaps she only got this far due to luck, or maybe she inherited her empire from another sister that graduated. But whatever the case, Quinn is in over her head and getting deeper swiftly.

We won't know if this a fault with Quinn or with DPC's writing (or both) until we learn the backstory.

Jill is a 3rd year student and Sage and whoever else being a higher grade than MC means nothing since I'm 99.9% confident at the pace the game is going on that roughly 95% of the entire year will be taking place within MC's first year.
