IMO I think once Annabelle gets into the habit of being "friends" with the cafe gang her klutziness is going to subside a bit as I think she's just super shy and this will lead her into getting the next waitress position.

I was originally thinking Rachel would get it a few updates back, but Annabelle makes much more sense.

 

[hameleona]

as for the reason as to why he was aware about alison before the FF meeting,i think it had to do with Allison getting the FF meeting schedule/manuscript for that first FF meeting.
but he could also indeed have more info about what's going on,like with the Foto off sarah holding his arm ,who took it? etc.
he has at least one person gathering intel but most likely a team.

I think we still just don't have enough info. I'm getting more and more certain with time, that most major players knew that the MC was coming to town and were laying the ground for their plans. There is no way they weren't keeping an eye on what's going on with the Fletcher family. We don't really know what's going behind the scenes - that "bureaucratic" war going on might have been going on for years. MC didn't have to get any licenses, permissions, etc, meaning he probably inherited them. As someone who has had to deal with food authorities... yeah, somebody was pulling strings
I can just hope, the MC will start moving his ass and start building his own power-base at some friggin point, because for now he is a walking target depending on his "allies" to protect him.
Also, didn't the stalker take that photo?

I remember him saying he didn't take or upload it, since he didn't use social media. I don't think it's been said on who actually took it. I just remember Mira saying her father showed her the picture.

we're all just speculating in the end as to how much the other FF head know/knew,noone is right or wrong until Cosy confirms things with a post or the VN.
i think cosy does represent that cut throat politics and everything along with it,mainly how people in power do a lot to keep it and/or getting more.

as for the foto,the stalker himself did say he didn't take it...replay the scene in the college library again if you want to see him do it,but i understand if you don't want to..creepy dude man...stalker in the making right there(pretty much is there already)

More like pathetic loser. If he was an actual threat I would probably pay a lot more attention to that scene and I would have remembered that

Eh, There is somewhere in this thread a "what would hameleona do if he was in Gloria's shoes", the politics in the game are a bit of a kiddie league. That's not a criticism, btw, Cosy writes a cosy, wholesome game and that contains the whole power-politics a lot. Add to that, I imagine a lot of people aren't as invested in that side of the story as I am and I'm not expecting any Red Weddings or even "I warned you not to trust me" moments.

 

[shitass1001]

New update is immaculate, amazing, everything I have ever wanted.
I think I say this every new update, but still, this is my favourite update for this game. The entire time reading it I was smiling ear to ear.

more rambling thoughts no one asked for:

Having another betrayal would be overdoing it. We had one, early in the game, for another to happen now or in the future would be going back to the same well one too many times, eventually poisoning it.

Catherine I think is going to go with the MC to the meeting with Hamilton on Wednesday, and I think that'll be the night she becomes a trusted girl by the MC

Alison having a negative "I told you so" moment would make no sense either, since she's hitching herself and Hannah to his team. She even said it herself in one of their office visits and she further said in this last update that she's not planning against him.

We have a very long road to get to where we have to go, and I expect some trouble along the way (Brian, Gloria, Vicky's Dad, Lucy's Mom) but looking at the people the MC has around him and how devoted he is to the girls and them to him, I'm pretty sure they can manage it. We can already see the tension ease between Hannah and Catherine, since now either one can't be with him without the other knowing and giving permission.

I'm personally expecting though at some point the cafe to be ransacked somehow. I've had this thought for a long time. Brian and his thug maybe? Just a thought, but I've had it for many months.

 

[hameleona]

Every update with Hannah I start liking her more and more, her mood swings are interesting, like she bottles up her emotions when she's with other people (probably especially her father), and then it boils over into anger, and then shes alone with the MC, who doesn't get angry back, and she deflates. I hope she and Catherine can get along at some point, the "either its both of you, or neither" thing hopefully will lead to that.

I'm betting on Hannah's mood swings are just her cracking under the pressure. Like how many ways is she pulled to by now? 4? 5? And the worst thing in her life was forced upon her by the two people she seems to care for the most - her dad and her sister. She is doing her damned best to be the perfect British Victorian noble lady - all elegant, calm and composed, but she is a bundle of nerves and there is no way there isn't fear deep down. For fucks sake, she has to marry Brain, that alone would send half the cast in to the loony bin
So, when the MC starts pushing her in yet another direction (besides her dad, her sister, her fiance and god knows who else, probably her mom too), she snaps at him. He is the only one she can snap at in a way, if you follow those social standards - can't snap at her dad, can't snap at her sister, can't snap at Brain, wouldn't snap at "commoners" cause that's not how her family does things. The MC is a peer and someone who just causes chaos around him, is anything but prim and proper and tbh, didn't really play it right with her from the start. If you think about it his casual dismissal of her problem was esentially "well, you are just dumb" and, imo, he was 100% in the wrong there. And I think he kinda realized it with time.

Oh, yeah, it's not that kind of story. I didn't really realize I just gave two betrayals as example
My point was, I don't expect massive drama or tragedy.

Catherine I think is going to go with the MC to the meeting with Hamilton on Wednesday, and I think that'll be the night she becomes a trusted girl by the MC

She should be there and I was genuenly surprised it wasnt mentioned in this update. After all, she has demonstrated that at the very least she would be neutral in his struggles with Hamilton and after she managed him so aptly during the contest I expected him to think of it himself. I guess Lucy would have to open his eyes again. Or he would do the stupid thing and the Hamiltons would invite her and as you say - this is probably where their alliance would form.

Alison having a negative "I told you so" moment would make no sense either, since she's hitching herself and Hannah to his team. She even said it herself in one of their office visits and she further said in this last update that she's not planning against him.

Well, it was almost spelled that there will be something to dicredit her (and I expect it to be jucy, but "depends on how you look at it" thing). And I'll be real, Alison, unless she has been a remarkable liar all along plain has no other options then the MC. She is easy to trust, because it's either him, or nothing. Hannah is in the same boat, but worse (she would actually HAVE to marry Brain... scary option, ngl). While I don't want to assume bad things... Cosy has done a remarkable job to essentially throw only girls that have no other option at the MC - most of them are easy to trust even for cynical bastards like me .

We have a very long road to get to where we have to go, and I expect some trouble along the way (Brian, Gloria, Vicky's Dad, Lucy's Mom) but looking at the people the MC has around him and how devoted he is to the girls and them to him, I'm pretty sure they can manage it. We can already see the tension ease between Hannah and Catherine, since now either one can't be with him without the other knowing and giving permission.

We also have a time-limit now. Couple of months or so (tho, with the pace the game has been going on that's almost eternity ). So either the MC ups his game or a lot of plans are gonna get fucked. Overall, while a bit on the rushed side, this update moved that part of the story forward by a lot.

I'm personally expecting though at some point the cafe to be ransacked somehow. I've had this thought for a long time. Brian and his thug maybe? Just a thought, but I've had it for many months.

It's been on my mind a lot, too, but I kinda doubt it. Strictly speaking, the cafe doesn't matter - loosing it won't make him lose his vote and only an idiot would turn him in to another Reggie, cementing Hamiltons rule for... a while. And honestly, it's Cosy, we ain't choosing who to drag out of the burning cafe - Lucy or Vicki
Like, it can work, but it must also kill the MC to work and if such stuff was allowed, there wouldn't be Founding Families left. So, idk, maybe some broken glass, but I seriously dobut anything worse would happen.

 

[Mauser45]

I never said it was femdom, or anything of the sort. But pretty much every scene in the game is focused on maledom in one way or another, so it wouldn't make sense to add a bunch of vanilla cunnilingus scenes that don't fit that theme - same goes for every other sex act in the game. Like I said, I have a few good ideas for it and I'm happily putting them in.

Hard disagree, I'm afraid. It just comes across as selfish, and, to be honest, even MORE vanilla without the lack of variety. Hell, it could even have been added as an option on whether or not you wanted to actually do it

Maledom is fine, but this is both a stretch and, honestly, kinda bland

No the stalker dude/college guy specifically says he doesn't have social media and confirms that it wasn't him that took the photo.

Nothing wrong with going down hard or orgasm denial. Cunnilingus can be dominant if you do it right. All the blowjobs etc do come across as extremely selfish and a bit boring. Sometimes almost feels like MC doesn't actually like women very much. Loving the story and characters though.

I've also thought Annabelle will probably end up being the next waitress and her arc might include "punishments" for breaking dishes like the rest of the girls.

Using a cunnilingus to get the woman really horny is before you fuck her is indeed a dominant act imo, even better in combination with cuffs and when you just ovherwhelm her with pleasure.

Not guy who ever experienced this kind of spectacle would ever call it submissive (from the guy) or something like that
