I finished my masterpiece roleplay complete devotion to Nicole playthrough and here is some info about it for those interested.
What makes this run interesting is that you have to be bad boy in early game and then transition into being a good guy without falling into Neutral trap. Additionally to this I added some rules for myself wherever applicable and if they don't interfere with the ultimate goal. This was not hardcore roleplay and involved a little bit of 4th wall breaking and save scumming, but it was all done in good faith to have a satisfying run which feels authentic, natural and filled with story enhancing flaws.
General plot I was going for:
You can decide for yourself how you want to justify a college freshman scoring a hot stripper as a girlfriend, that's up to you. And you could just stay bad boy and still go after Nicole, but I think it could bite you in the ass later as it feels Chick affinity will play stronger role in this particular relationship - if you want it to be serious not just sex that is. I will go into more details what you MUST do in order to get all the juice you can from this run, but I want to share some rules I set for myself to enhance roleplay aspect of this run.
My personal rules:
Now if you apply my rules above there are certain consequences - your status will want to lean to Chick side, but we need Dik side early game. So as long as the rules are not broken I tried to go for +DIK choices unless they were -Relationship with someone. Why would I care about relationship points with other girls if I'm pursuing Nicole? Well, in my opinion, the more cast of the game you involve in MC's life even on just a friendly level, the more "ripples" you will experience about your ultimate goal - relationship with Nicole in this case. People talk in this game, a lot behind the scenes and off-camera. I don't want to miss out on someone being jealous of me and Nicole or someone wanting to compliment us, just because MC made sure to isolate himself from the start. Also what if someone you distance yourself from later would be friends with Nicole and you can't attend that event because you are not on good terms. A lot of possibilities in future, but you do you. Not saying you should try to be friendly with Tybalt for example, game needs fair share of enemies for MC too. Okay I talk too much in this segment let's move on.
Few things you MUST do:
My MAJOR choices:
So these are pretty much the important foundations you need for Season 1-2. Trying to abide by my rules it was hard to stay on the Dik status side - doing tests takes away the points because no cheating, being kind to people you like often takes away points and trying to gain friendly relationship points sometimes takes away points too. The thing is once you will gain permanent affinity your status will automatically shift towards Chick side, so this is basically a rebellious period which fits nicely with the whole personality transitioning theme.
These are my Season 1-2 end stats:
Starting Season 3 is pretty smooth sailing. A lot more girls to watch out for perhaps, don't mistake friendly flirting with rabbit hole towards lewd scenes. Hopefully obvious you gotta end the Halloween party with Nicole & Lily (and just like in threesome with Nicole & Sandy, Nicole does not feel left our or minding these actions so I think it's part of the loyalty - fun edition). If you find this run interesting I wish you luck in attempting it. I will drop some more status and bio or relationship panels below.

Thank you for reading and have a lovely day!
P.S. Big thanks to

P.S.S. If there are some typo or English mistakes in this big thread I apologize, but I likely won't have energy to edit them out (I'm also not native English speaker sorry). Cheers!
