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

[mindern]

Are you sure Bella wants a divorce? I'm not sure at all, she has never had a really negative thought about her husband, on the contrary, the main feeling has been the lack of him. she forgives him and hopes he has forgiven her too. we don't even know if James has been guilty of a terrible fault or if it was an obligation to leave home (for work?).

to me, this does not seem to be the basis for a peaceful and uncontested divorce.

Should James show up at Bella's door, there will almost certainly be a moment of confusion and doubt. (of course, Bella is an LI so she would eventually choose MC, but the doubt would be there)

I don't deserve you, but in fact none of us do.

There that quote. “The opposite of love is not hate, but indifference.”

If he’s been gone this long it’s possible Bella has simply fallen entirely out of love with him. There’s no hatred or anger… just is what it is. No reason to speak badly of him.

I have always seen Bella’s arc not about her falling in love with the MC… or falling out of love with her husband but her “thawing” the Ice Queen. Whatever happened didn’t make her angry or upset it numbed her and in more recent episodes that’s starting to come undone. Her life is moving forward again.

I think the decision to divorce isn’t because her feelings or situation changed it’s because she’s realised it’s time to move on. She was stuck in place before. Not truly married but has no reason to divorce. His total absence didn’t give her any reason to push for a divorce and she had no guys she would need to be single for. So she did nothing. Just a holding pattern.

I think the divorce (at least from her end) would be amicable. James could kick up all kinds of a fuss but I think Bella has come to terms with her marriage being over and is ready to move on without any explosive drama.

Hmm I know there is a fetish for everything.
But I am sure the sentence :I lost my hymen to a horse.
Will definitely attract the wrong crowd...

but to me Bella doesn't seem indifferent to her husband, it's not that we know everything you think, but one of the most emotional passages is when she hopes that her husband has forgiven her and that he will come back since she has already forgiven him. it doesn't seem to me an indifferent attitude.

one of the most popular assumptions was that he was a military man serving somewhere, perhaps missing in action. how could Bella slam the door in his face when he returned or calmly justify that she no longer loves him because she wants to be with a student?

but then sincerely, do you expect DPC to write a serene family reunion with a pat on the back and goodbye?

no I don’t, but not because of her. She’s just half of the situation.

also, how she is now might not be how she is when he comes back. I wasn’t trying to encapsulate her entire behaviour on the issue just justify why she isn’t actively slagging him off.

She doesn’t have to be at his throat to be over him. She might just be moving on. Maybe him coming back will change that but her lack of vitriol doesn’t mean she’s still fond of him. She could have enough distance from the relationship to feel very little.

we have seen Bella prey of strong feelings of guilt with her husband missing, we don't know where, at her return the situation would be for sure remixed, and also the relationship with MC would be discussed again (then at the end Bella will choose MC, but anyway she will have to think about it)

now Bella was not able to go near the library where she had worked because it was too full of memories of her and James, it doesn't seem to me that she has reached this tranquility with MC, it takes very little to go back in full crisis

James is her husband, if he wasn't particularly at fault in their temporary split, Bella can't unilaterally end the relationship and James can't accept it peacefully without wanting to assert his reasons.

a crisis is inevitable

but the orchestra continues to play...

Again, honestly, does it matter? If it's gonna be a peaceful and uneventful divorce, DPC will write a few lines about it. If it's gonna be a drama-filled divorce, DPC will pace it out over a few episodes. And for shits and giggles, DPC might even write an ending in which Bella is conflicted and at the end chooses James over MC too. (To be quite honest, that would actually fit quite well with the melancholic opening monologue of the game.)

if the history of an LI doesn't count, at this point in history, the one you chose because otherwise we wouldn't even know about it, what else does?

the game is all there, the roller coaster in the relationship with one or more of the LI available, if we are not interested in this we wait for the mod to unlock the gallery ...

Most of the updates are usually 5 to 7 months from the last release, this time though it's not a usual update but an Interlude, whatever the fuck that means, and no one is sure how long it will take.

Interlude..in a damn visual novel?
DPC over here thinking this is Lawrence of Arabia or something. And if it really is an indicator of the midway point, then my goodness we really have a lot of plot and drama left to go. How can we make it to the spring break bikini fuckfest if the story is unfolding so slowly? I can't even get my halloween party. Please, no more party planning in ep. 9.
Here, I'll do it for you. Send out a blast: Halloween costume party at the DIK house, Friday night. Girls free, blokes $$$$$
Rusty, pick up a few kegs. Riona, get some non-shitty music together. Tommy, go work at the rose or something so I can shag your lady in peace, unless you want to sit in the cuck corner. There, fucking done.

 

[27X]

Hey you guys know that if you start a lot of Vampire fantasies in the forums you'll regret it when most of episode ?? is taken up with a Vampire Diaries equivalent of D&G

oh no.

What I have I done.

Four screens. FOUR. I can never unsee them.

so haunting. oh no.

The FOUR screens that will be with me forever and all time.

oh no.

How could have I known.

 

[27X]

Except DrPC.

Actual CHICK:

"maya and I are a couple, we were gonna tell you"

"oh shit, that's a lot to take in, we should really really talk"


DrPC CHICK:

HOW COULD THIS HAPPEN TO ME

WHAT EVILS HAS UNCHECKED SCIENCE WROUGHT

IT'S A COOKBOOK A COOOOKBOOOOOK!!!!!!oneoneoneuno

SOYLENT GREEN IS PEOPLE!!!!!

so yeah. there will be DRAMATICAL DRAMA, because DrPC made a bunch of screens. Those screen will not be two adults realizing what time has done to them and their view of each other. That princess is in a castle very very far way.

Next time try to ask questions like this by opening it in a new thread (when you can't find anything in search)
Not much use putting the same question in several threads
Hope the option linked works for you.

 

[Innovative maniac]

Sage's mom's route in Maya and JOEY's route is blocked from chapter 4... I don't know what you mean by Isabella explain yourself better

What I'm trying to ask here is, Is it possible to continue story with Maya /Josy without visiting Isabella during end of Eps 3 when it's gives you a options with whom would you prefer to crash night with Isabella , Derek or Sage?

Who you stay with doesn't matter for the Maya/Josy path...
Ofcourse you get to see different scenes but it doesn't matter to any path...
(staying with Sage will give some interaction with HOT's you would otherwise mis, staying with Bella will give the option to play guitar for i think Jill and Bella you would otherwise mis)

 

[shazba]

Prof. Hagar Schmidt. Wow...what college did Isabella go to? Smith & Readme. Smith=Schmidt? Readme=Roberts? Smith & Roberts?

Is James a teacher at Smith & Roberts, perhaps?

Maybe James and Isabella were just arguing about losing their jobs and Isabella got a job at B&R and James did not. James may have then gone on to become a dean at his college and then couldn't just leave. As Josy once said to MC, relationships where you can't see each other every week suck. Maybe Isabella and James just grew apart and Isabella forgave JJames for not coming with her right away.

I’m thinking… No. To everything.

Don't worry, I'm sure that it'll be done by the time ep 27 comes out.

You just need to open up your dalleye so you can understand.

You just need to open up your dalleye so you can understand.

I'm not sure Dalli understand half of what Dalli says

 

[ChipLecsap]

And... I'm finished !

Oh yeah I'm proud of what I achieved . but after 4 times in a row, I'm not sure I'm gonna missing it
