VN Ren'Py Being a DIK [v0.11.1] [DrPinkCake]

[funkymonkeyjedi]

Knowing Dawe, he probably just used a slur around Troy, setting him off. Troy seems to have a very short fuse, and Dawe is just an idiot, so it's not too hard to imagine.

For all we know, when Chad went to the MC's room to steal the guitar, that could have been what set him and Troy down the path. He would have known him already, and maybe Troy tried to stop Chad from taking the guitar since that was the only thing you did that Troy liked, hence the black eye. Maybe Chad went back to apologize after being suspended and that led to their relationship starting.

Or the more likely explanation would be if Chad asked Anthony to get the guitar for him..

I seriously doubt that Chad would have gone himself to beat up his "lover" with whom he's been cheating on Sage with....

Patrick is not stupid, that's for sure. He thinks over his actions well in terms of how to take his daughter on the hook, how to deceive in order to make an unexpected visit. etc. But here is something else, he is insane.
At the top it is written - a narcissist, plus he has some kind of inferiority complex, obsessed with control, and with this obsession he is ready to take any measures. Added to this are extremely religious views, but perhaps they are just a front, an excuse to control Maya. Perhaps he gets moral pleasure from this, although he himself doesn't recognize it - covering it with his views. So I think yes, Patrick may well fuck up his financial well-being because of this absurdity. Let's see how the DPC will explain this situation. Or maybe he won’t explain: just accept it as a fact, in my game it works like that and that’s it.
All fraud stories are like that. You inadvertently sign a contract/ agree to give bank details to strangers/trust a call about a relative in trouble and that's it, you're being fucked financially.

I think this loan thing should be taken for what it is - a plot device, not a dissertation or commentary on the ins and outs of the US federal student loan laws. As I said before, a MacGuffin.

I feel like I've seen these girls some where. Can yall help me out here?

They look so familiar but I can't put my finger on it...

It's not like DPC invented the models. He modified them a bit, but they are basically stock models.

Oh, dissertations and essays for dozens of pages are part of our thread.

Okay, since it's Monday and it's hot, let's start the day with the Hot girls... You can choose freely...

What i understand from Maya's situation is like this:

Patrick got the loan but Maya co-signed so money deposited in Patricks account and he pays from semester to semester(maybe ?) that's why if she doesn't do what Patrick wants he can just not pay for the semester and Maya's expelled(?) from the school.

If he doesn't pay(for this he should be an idiot more than a bigot) loan is on Maya's shoulder and she has to pay it.

Thats what i understood from the game correct me if i'm wrong.

You have the process entirely backward. Maya got the loan, and Patrick co-signed for her.

You only need a cosigner on a loan if you don't have good enough credit or sufficient collateral to take the loan out on your own recognizance. Maya has never had a job, or at least one to speak of, that would guarantee her current income to be able to repay a loan of tens of thousands of dollars, nor does she have something of great worth to put up as collateral for a loan (a home, expensive jewelry, real estate, stocks, etc.) so she needs a cosigner for the bank to give her one.

When she takes out the loan it is in her name only and she is responsible for paying it back, with the cosigner being responsible for repayment if she defaults. The check is written to Maya Bailey, not the cosigner. Patrick doesn't need a cosigner, and if he did Maya wouldn't qualify because she has no appreciable assets to put up. Maya is primarily responsible for paying the loan back, but if she doesn't the bank comes after Patrick. If he doesn't pay then both of their credit ratings go down the toilet.

 

[JJ1960]

Exactly
Again why I labelled Maya a Drama queen. Because DPC wrote her that way. And it's a great way to distract readers from the actual facts.

As I pointed out, I think ultimately what will happen will be some form of family "intervention" for Patrick. And Maya's salvation will be Patrick finally accepting his daughter for who she is and finally letting her breath like a normal teenager.

Or there will be a house fire, and you can only save Patrick or Tybalt. So you choose the option of going out for burgers with Sarah and Mel.

 

[JJ1960]

and had it deposited into a "joint account".

A joint account means both parties can withdraw funds as they wish without consulting the other account holder.

Except for Quinn where her joint account is where she keeps the money Rio pays her to smoke.

But if I really MUST choose,

1. Lily and Sage for a threesome
2. Mel and Sarah for a threesome
3. Rio and Cammy for a threesome
4. Josy and Maya for a threesome
5. Quinn for a CNC painful anal (you know she likes it dirty like that!)
6. Heather, Ashley, and Elena for a foursome and a beating from the rest of the DIKs.
7. Arieth for shameful sexting.

 

[Lightaces]

Ever thought so Jamie could be the father of Arieth's baby!

Pretty sure it's gonna be Jacob. I mean, it's not like Dawe is gonna understand.

They may not have been a couple at that point. That could have happened later. Quite a bit of time passes from the guitar getting taken and seeing them in the gym.

 

[JJ1960]

It's not that simple. Jade & Sage supposed that Stephen will not show, while Tybalt probably knew that. Stephen himself supposed that Jade won't show up... Stephen was there for different purposes. To meet with guests and talk about business and to fuck Mona as well. While it's unclear why Jade showed up. Probably she knew that Stephen planned to attend the party and decided to catch him on cheating. Or it's just a random coincidence.

I think the most likely reason Jade showed at the preps party was she and Cathy had planned to go drinking at Macallister's and Cathy cancelled because she was so upset over the photo.

I'm sure Dalli will probably be able to confirm or deny this.
But if I'm not mistaken, I think I recall something Chad says to Troy at the end
of episode 8 in the locker room where MC discovers their secret in the locker room.
or was that ep7. Bleh I deleted all my save points for Season1 & 2. So I have to start a replay
just to make it there.. lol

But anyhow, maybe I'm being delusional but I think Chad mentions something about
when Troy was kicked out of the Alphas having something to do with his personal
'preferences'. And how Brad felt bad about how he had to hide his 'being hurt'
and play along to keep their secret and anger hidden since was kicked out and everytime
he's in the Gym since then.

Again, take that with a grain of salt. Going to start, yet another playthrough..

Haha, I'm there at the beginning of Ep 8 right now on my Bella route save.

Troy asks where Chad is staying, he replies that he's crashing on Alex's couch.
Then they mention that Troy's new roommate is a nerd and that they should have timed it better.
Chad replies that there is no way they could have done that.

Maybe they were a couple, or maybe they weren't yet. Based on Chad's reply, they might not have been able to do that because they weren't together, or just that they couldn't have known he'd need a new room. That could go either way, really.

No mention of anything other than just ignoring the rest of "us" (meaning the other alphas) and that their shit talk affects Chad too.

That's in the scene where MC hides around a corner and listens to their convo?

Either way, when I said to take it with a grain of salt, I really meant a grain of salt the size of Texas.


Thanks for checking regardless. I wasn't looking forward to another playthrough just for 1 scene.. lol

Yep it is.


Interestingly, shortly after that is the Mel & Sarah scene where they talk about whether to sell Sage or not, and Sarah mentions that it would upset Sage that "we knew and didn't tell her." I didn't catch that in previous playthroughs, which implies to me that he's gay and not bi. I thought that perhaps Mel was being duped too, but not anymore. I am curious how they came to know this, though.

 

[Anthony11553]

Patrick is pretty based ngl

 

[Outlier69]

if only she still looked that but now with those ugly ass tatoos its easy to resist she should have stayed on the west coast

Thank God Zoey went to west coast and made the tats plus the nipple piercings. Now she is 10000% more sexy. Can't wait to give a good suck on those nipple piercings of hers

The duality of man

x100.

I'm amazed at the pages and pages of debate I'm thumbing through here and speculation on complex motives or emotions......

Dudes.

It's a harem sex game. No matter what happens, Josy's not going to leave you if you want to stay with her. At the very worst, you'll be forced to make a decision between different girls. The humanity! Who cares whether or not Sage and Chad's split is reasonable, again, it's a harem sex game. All the backstories exist in service of the porn.


If this sounds overly reductionist, remind yourself that the dev's income stream relies on maintaining certain constants in the ingame world. I get that exploring different aspects of characters is enjoyable, but at some point it kinda sounds like millionaires arguing other whether oysters or steak are better to have for dinner. The answer is; it doesnt really matter because they'll be eating well regardless.
