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

[Heffaz]

Is he in love with Zoey?

In EP11, it becomes clear that Jacob just wants to fuck Zoey.

I think there might be more going on than Jacob just wanting to diddle Zoey, he might've actually gotten infatuated with her. They hit it off pretty well from the very start (but Zoey is pretty easy-going, just like Josy, so that point can be easily discarded), they have common interests (art). One doesn't necessarily exclude the other.

Jacob even admits this to the MC. Guys talk.

Yet during the Thanksgiving party, if we tell Jacob to not hit on Zoey, he goes against MC's wishes anyway. Actions speak louder than words

But I think it's so Zoey still has a role to play, and Josy could be involved. What if, if she plays things right, she stays in college but just changes her major? There's a hint in EP6.

Look at the book Josy is picking up right now. Considering that Zoey might also go to B&R, Josy and Zoey could potentially become college friends.

That'd be an interesting way to incorporate her character into the main plot.
Btw., doesn't Jill have the same book on graphic design under her bed? I went through my screenshots, but unfortunately I don't have any, so it might've been just a random asset used by DPC. It doesn't mean he can't use it to shape the future plotline, but he might've not used it deliberately in E6.

It seems pretty obvious to me that among the main five, the one with the most potential to befriend Zoey is Jill (of course, this can only happen in routes where the MC rejected Zoey or came back to her through "others").

I love that moment. The actual ILYs may have come an episode later, but Sage was shown to be in love a whole month before anyone else.

Well Sage is the one most like Zoey in personality, but that doesn't mean they'd get along. Sage's attitude on her own and Jill's paths is very anti-Zoey and I don't think she'd be more forgiving on Bella's or Maya's and Josy's paths. Then again Sage didn't initially like Jill either so it might just be a matter of them actually getting to know each other.

And I'm not sure if Other's path Zoey has much befriending chances. The main girls all seem to be at least low key in love with MC no matter how you play the game so they might just be too jealous of Zoey. And it might go the other way too, so that even if they made the effort, Zoey might be the jealous and possessive girlfriend. Or it could be dependent on Zoey being DIK or Chick.

But with rejected Zoey Jill does seem the most likely to make the effort. There's just a chance Sage might do something surprising. Again.

Having a crush doesn't mean loving someone. Jacob's question to the MC in EP10 isn't crucial for Jacob, but rather for the MC's answer.

If the MC tells Jacob to stay away from Zoey, it means two things. The MC still has feelings for Zoey, and Jacob is a fake brother because he's still hitting on Zoey behind the MC's back.

I rather feel that JB might be genuinely interested in Zoey. Zoey is impressed by JB's baking skills. JB has an uncle in San Diego. JB is wearing a shirt with a surfer motif.

It could be a coincidence. But the book is in Jill's bed, and Josy is actively reaching for it. I wouldn't have given it any further significance if it hadn't been for the conversation between Maya and Josy in EP11.

Is he in love with Zoey?

In EP11, it becomes clear that Jacob just wants to fuck Zoey. Jacob even admits this to the MC. Guys talk.

At that point he has been rejected already. Him saying "I just wanted to fuck her anyway!" doesn't mean a lot, as he could just be defensive about it. I don't think he would go out and say that he is actually in love with the girl MC was in a relationship with when he is there to make sure that "they are cool".

Head-over-heels might've been a bit too heavy of a statement on my part, but I think there are some emotions involved (on Jacob's side) that go beyond wanting a one night stand or a fuckbuddy relationship with Zoey.

If the MC tells Jacob to stay away from Zoey, it means two things. The MC still has feelings for Zoey, and Jacob is a fake brother because he's still hitting on Zoey behind the MC's back.

You don't need to want someone back, but it can still be painful to see someone that was romantically significant to you forming a relationship of sorts with another person. The reaction doesn't have to be logical at first (or at all), since it's emotions we're talking about. Pure sentiment is all it can take to evoke them.

At that point he has been rejected already. Him saying "I just wanted to fuck her anyway!" doesn't mean a lot, as he could just be defensive about it. I don't think he would go out and say that he is actually in love with the girl MC was in a relationship with when he is there to make sure that "they are cool".

I'm with you here. Rejection, especially if there are some feelings involved, is rarely easy and defensiveness is to be expected. It's young people we're talking about, there's still a lot of emotional development ahead of them.

And again, you're forgetting something. Jacob says this not only to the MC, but also to other DIKs.

I mean, they are frat bros at the end of the day, talking about who they like to bang is probably a more common occurence than to talk about who they have a crush on. That they objectify women as someone they just have sex with is somewhat explicit text and the reason why the dorm girls seek some kind of revenge in the first place. Formulating "I think I am developing feelings towards this person" as "I want to fuck her so bad" doesn't seem far fetched.

And him talking about how they have texted a lot also implies a bit more imho, same as how he says that she is so easy to talk to. That's not something he would say if it was just about fucking her.

This only implies that Jacob wanted to get Zoey into bed. Jacob should put in some effort if he wants to fuck Zoey.

By the way, Tommy also has Zoey's number, as you can read in EP10. Is he now interested in a serious relationship with Zoey? It wasn't Jacob who invited Zoey to the barbecue, but Tommy and der MC.

Could imply that, but also more.
I'm not saying that he wants more, but that all the things he said can easily be read as someone having feelings and translating that through the eyes of a frat bro.

I don't even know if Tommy ever had a real talking scene with her.

Considering how things have gone so far they will all be super friends with Zoey at the first freeroam, at most at the second

They did. In an interlude, you see Zoey talking to Tommy. Tommy also makes Zoey a drink or shows Zoey where she can make herself one.
