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

[Ilhares]

Out of all the explanations I've stated above, the one that makes the most sense based on DPC's writing style is Lynette. I think the pregnancy test is just serving as conversational fuel. Simply added in to make fans talk about conspiricies and discuss it. It will more than likely be a picture added in Lynette's diary marking the event of her becoming pregnant with MC by Neil.

I get where you're coming from, but that's just wasteful. We know how MC came into this world, throwing that in there as a Lynette flashback is just fucking pointless. Flashbacks at the end of a chapter in the midst of showing everything else going on? It doesn't sit right. Very much a shit thing to do, if that is indeed what DPC has done.

Then again, I would LOVE for it to be something that throws the story for an insane loop. I love stories that have that "WHAT THE FUCK?!" moment.

MC's older sibling? Well, that'd do it!

is 0.8.1 the newest version?

So far, yes, there has not been an 8.2 bugfix release. If we're lucky, there won't be.

Josy and therefore also Tommy

Wouldn't expect those two to share a surname, honestly. Got the impression they were both older when their parents married. Wife might have taken the surname but there'd be no legal reason for Josy to do so, especially as non-fond of them as she seems to be.

Yeah I only knew of the Madame from the gallery unlocker. Never met her but she's the madame of the Pink Rose

Your not missing anything. On my Dik others route I accepted the gift but it really isn't worth it. The extra money towards the frat is just a better call, especially since it seems like you will be doing more in the economy department of things going forward. The pass just gets you access to a fancy room where she wants your whole wallet for a BJ. I'd take an extra 10$ in the bank any day.

Josy will definitely have her father's last name

Tommy we don't even know if he ever had a father, but he doesn't seem to have any resentment towards him, so he could very well have taken his last name

I don't think it'd necessarily be a shit thing to do. The journals serve as a way for MC to get to know his mother. Right now, all MC has known of his mom is what his dad has told him. With the diaries, it's almost as if Lynette is talking directly to MC in her own words. I think it would bring MC some closure in dealing with her death if she wrote about her pregnancy with him, and explained the emotions and the excitement she feels about it. That way, he wouldn't feel as empty and look at his mom as just a stranger, ya kno?

What's under Bella's door

Ayo wtf that is really revealing after reading post you linked up, I would assume that maybe the night MC was drunk he saw a photo of James when he is in army clothes and he was just too drunk to notice that's a photo/portrait not real person, after events with MC, Bella decided that she doesn't want to make things weird by hanging out with MC next to James photo. I could be wrong tho

 

[Skeltom]

Tommy we don't even know if he ever had a father, but he doesn't seem to have any resentment towards him

Tommy doesn't seem to like his father. Unless he's talking about Josy's dad, and I don't think he is from the interactions with him, the line "apples and trees" when you call him a shitty father seems to suggest that his dad was a piece of shit as well.

 

[gamingdevil800]

I have mixed feelings about Zoey. I'm looking forward to seeing what she'll bring to the story. Hopefully, it'll be more of a friendship (with benefits) but more than likely it'll serve as another point of drama with the MC falling in love with her. I really hope this isn't the case because Zoey seems like she'd be a cool person to just hang out with and have a drink, sharing laughs and stories etc.

Wouldn't surprise me if the MC still liking her is a forced narrative point after all we don't have total control over the MC's actions. Like him having a hissy fit over Josy and Maya being girlfriends.

To be honest, I don't know if this was an error when creating the characters by the dev, but I've always thought the MC and Tommy look alike.

I was referring to hiscurrent father, not his biological father.

the references to the biological one are very general, he could have run away as soon as Monica got pregnant, he could have been an asshole, we don't know much about it, but it is believable that Tommy doesn't care about his "biological" last name

wait a second I might come after the war (just finished my full DIK road) but Nora is the science teacher so you can fuck up to 4 teacher in less than 4month

Same model...

Maybe not the last name but that kind of response sounds very bitter to me. I was talking about not having any resentment towards him, to me it seems like he does.

I've noticed that as well. However, a lot of the characters resemble each other.

then I have not explained myself well or I have not understood what you want to say

I also think that Tommy does not "love" his biological father.

before I was talking about his current father (Josy's) and unlike Josy who shows all his disappointment towards his new mother, it doesn't seem to me that Tommy has any particular resentment towards his "new" father

 

[Ostap Bender]

like she’s Josy Hitler or Josy Joestar and it’s her destiny to defeat Tommy after he turns himself into a vampire.

Fuck, I'd even pay $$$$$ for that
While I don't hate Tommy (and even somewhat sympathize with him) I REALLY FUCKING NEED to see Josy Hitler beating the shit out of Tommy! DPC, please, MAKE IT HAPPEN!

Army dude in Bella's house during MC's drunk exploration and Stephen Burke

There is theory that army dude was Burke himself.

 

[TomUK]

As for what the picture is, now you're talking wild theory territory. But what the hell - I'll go there, too. It's her kid. The shoes could be Chuck Taylors or even hiking boots. The stepping stool and low mirror in the bathroom are obviously for a child. And, the shirt she loaned MC for yoga was short, maybe for a pre-teen. How old was the kid in the picture? Where did he (yes, gender assumed) go? Why is she packing away stuff that reminds her of him? And what's the deal with the axe (ok, probably unrelated)?

Hmm, if it is a kid, I would think it's a girl, not a boy, because the laces on the shoes look pink. How old exactly is Bella, is she old enough to have a 18/19 year old child. I don't know, I was always in the thinking that Bella was late 20s to early 30s, so she would definitely been underaged when she had the kid if it is her kid.

This talk of exclusivity made me think of Jill after the relationship has begun. Do you think we will get to see a DIK mansion walk of shame with her? How would that play out? I think the brothers would be in too much awe to even say anything!

If you go the Jill route there is no walk of shame because the MC will tell her to go out the window as it has a glass patio door next to it.

It wouldn't surprise me with his creepy ass obsession with Bella.

I'm thinking that it's just his study and she can't bring herself to do anything with it in the hopes he will be back. As long as it's not some psycho throwback and he's in there dead.
