VN Ren'Py Friends in Need [S1 v0.85c] [NeonGhosts]

[Eleanorduval]

I mostly play for the Dark Path ( )
But I like Jun on Dark & Nice Guy paths, I’m really interested in perusing Jun on a romantic path perhaps convincing her to leave her Husband.

But of course I’m loving turning her into my toy on the dark path, I’m looking forward to (Hopefully??) giving Callie-Co a nice 18th birthday on my dark guy path
Not sure if there will be a non-dark option for Callie though.

Jun is in my top tier LIs with Ashe, Britt, Viola, & Cassie.
Good thing the remake gave us Jun, I was too Blonde centric before.

From what neon told me via DM June will not be full LI (but still having scenes).The rest of girls are full LI

I don't know about Gabi or Risa, but Brittani seems to be a very talented woman with clear idea for what she wants to do with her life, has a good head on her shoulders and genuine interest in having a "normal" family life. Frankly, the idea that Guy would have no possible ways to meaningfully interact with such person "outside of the bedroom" is baffling and seems more than a little condescending if not just sexist -- as if the bedroom is the only place a guy could interact with a girl in a way that could possibly hold his interest, or as if him spending few years on menial jobs somehow rendered him above and unable to find common interests..?

(if the idea is that Guy can't have a relationship with a girl because he's "a grownup" and she isn't... well, that couldn't be farther from the truth, because if anything Guy is your classic manchild, quite immature and apparently pretty inexperienced for his age. Ironically, some of these younger girls show more maturity and life experience than he does, something he even recognizes himself)

I don't dispute that Brittani is talented, and smart but she's also young and the world she's aiming at (Hollywood red carpets, high fashion, etc) is not a world I think Guy would be comfortable in, or is particularly interested in. Even if he was, and they went to Hollywood, he'd get a lot of side eye from people for being this rich older guy acting as an agent for an 18-19-20 year old and also dating her. I also think that Brittani would feel like she'd missed out, because the other models and actors her age would be going to week long parties at exotic locations, while what Guy really wanted was to play video games. (He actually had a talk with Nicki about the problems he'd have in high society.)

I don't do the corruption path, and I don't judge anyone for interpreting it differently than I do but to me the best Guy - Brittani relationship is the one where he genuinely tries to help her career take off, they're friends and once she makes it (as I'm sure she will) she can be a huge help to Guy's charity.

I don't think that's sexist or a slam on Brittani - I just don't think they fit as a couple.

I just realized we're gonna be Leonardo DiCaprio in that scenario. Really puts it in perspective.

I was thinking that Tony humor are strange but you’re are even more strange lol I lf keep speaking about Leo DiCaprio,I gonna make sure that u sank with titanic xD

I have no idea what you're talking about. Leo is old and almost exclusively chases young women, that's the reference.

It is more well clear now lol I thought speaking about Leo as actor not in real life.Yeah there is some similarities,I think one of them have rejected Leo.Speaking about the game if I remember well only Gabi,Callie,viola are teens the rest are older

Brittani is in that group too. Which again, ties back to the point Pix was trying to make.

Given older guys dating/sponsoring younger girls are pretty standard thing in these circles, and it's frequently guys much older than Guy to boot, i doubt their pairing would get singled out or even noticed as anything worth extra attention, much less outright scorn.

Ironically, he'd probably get quite a few more side-eyes in his current town.

I also think that Brittani would feel like she'd missed out, because the other models and actors her age would be going to week long parties at exotic locations, while what Guy really wanted was to play video games. (He actually had a talk with Nicki about the problems he'd have in high society.)

I honestly don't remember at this point (i'm slowly getting around to a replay now that the remake version is moving forward) but did Brittani ever indicated she's got some particular interest in week-long parties, or is this just presumption along the lines of "well it's what all young girls want"? I ask, because it sits a little at odds with what i actually remember from the game -- with Brittani talking how her favorite part of being in relationship wasn't partying weeks long with her boyfriend, but getting to interact with his family members who actually didn't treat her like a piece of meat to ogle and hopefully fuck.

Brittani have a bitch mom but hot one,hope we can have a piece of her too lol

That used to be true, or more true than it is now. From the 30s through about the 70s seeing gray haired men with teenagers was pretty common, but post me too, it gets a lot more scrutiny and more tabloid headlines.

Maybe not, but if she goes Hollywood, or even supermodel - that's what her peers and new friends will be doing. Somehow I don't see her turning it all down, or wanting to at least. I once had an aspiring model in an apartment building I lived in - absolutely stunning girl, blonde and mostly made of legs, she got an agency after a few months, then got hired exclusively by some Italian designer a few months after that and then she was gone. I didn't see her again for 6 months when she came to clear out her apartment, and said she'd had the best time of her life ... met so many people, traveled all over the world etc., etc - once her stuff was packed up or curbed she was gone again.

I know it's just a game, but IRL I wouldn't want to tag along for that adventure, nor would I want to hold her back - go be 19 and famous, have a good time, call if need anything.

I currently only have one save, and that's Nicki solo - so my plans for Nicki are pretty straight forward. And if she gets tired of being Guy's assistant, she can do what she likes - go back to school or whatever. For everyone else what I'd like to do is based on something Warren Buffett said about the money he's leaving for his kids/grandkids - "enough money to do whatever they want but not enough to do nothing" (the rest he's leaving to charity). I put it all in a spoiler, because it's long and a lot of people will not care, so I didn't want to make it hard to scroll past:

And I know all of this isn't the point of the game, but it's the kind of thing I'd do if I suddenly woke up wealthy: Not give big checks to charities but find good people facing obstacles, and move those obstacles. So, for me, it's a different kind of fantasy.

Sneak Peek of the Week! 8/2/25

Hey, friends! Hope your weekend's off to a great start! Just as a quick FYI, I dropped a new, self-contained teaser build for the next chapter on Thursday, and it's now available to all $15+ supporters. It's not quite everything I'd hoped to have in there, so I'm going to keep working on it for a bit, before I publish an updated version with a few more scenes.

The next build will include some stuff with Nicki, Gabby, Cassie, and then finally end on a montage I've previously talked about. Said montage more or less marks the midpoint of the update, and should bring the render total to 650+ Currently we're standing a little shy of 500. I'm trying to keep this update fairly tight, while still touching on basically every character. That's meant moving some stuff around, keeping the plot moving at a fairly brisk pace, and being smart with my rendering. So far so good though, I think? Early reactions to the new teaser have been positive, which is always gratifying.

Once I get that next teaser out, I'll be pivoting back to getting the rest of Season 1 packaged up and distributed. There'll be a little new content in there, too. Nothing too demanding, just a little bonus stuff with Risa and Ashe, and a little round-up of where all the characters are by the time the season ends. Meanwhile I'm still gathering up some thoughts on the state of the AVN space right now, while we're seeing increasing censorship and de-platforming. Annnnd finally I'll be putting out a little Wanton Weekends content, tomorrow.

I'll leave you with your regular sneak peek at the script ahead. As always, take care of yourselves, and thank you for your support!

I just have a Nicki save as well so far.
This is pretty much exactly the kind of things I want to do too in-game. If I woke up wealthy, not sure. Probably too introverted and asocial to do all that, so it would probably be charities for me.

We also have Cassie to deal with, I'd like to reconnect and be the brother I haven't been in a long while, and help her deal with whatever shit she's in currently. At least I can put her up in Nicki's 'old' room (what a coincidence that became available just now) while we sort out her situation.
I would not be surprised if she brings chaos with her. Bad, horny me would deal with that in interesting ways good horny me will only fantasise about. Poor good me.

Yeah lets see if this was me. Assuming Nicki is Guy's best friend. This is how I would of acted due to me being an introvert.

Nicki would of been forever in the friendzone as I would of never made that move to be more but I would of spoiled her with things and try to talk her from moving out so soon.

Would of never Meet Ashe as I wouldn't of done to such a event or even did what guy did to become well known.

Mason would never of given money too ( I forget their 2nd interaction probably would of ignored

Viola would of talked the bare amount needed to get something for Cassie.

Cassie would of sent more than a letter , emailed her tried to talk to her on social network since she is Family

Pepper kind of like Viola would of barely talked to her but would of gave her a nice tip more than Guy does.

Would of never met Gabby or her mother.

Risa her I probably would of became friends with and talked with. As I find once you get me to talk and feel comfortable, I start to act less like an introvert and start to become more like an extrovert but only with that person. Risa has that kind of energy where she probably could bring that out in me I feel.

Haha, yeah. I probably wouldn't have gotten to know most of these ladies past brief but friendly interactions. I'm introverted, not shy, so I can certainly have a nice and interesting conversation with someone, without being awkward, but things would stay there.
I really don't know which of the girls would suit me the best irl, possibly Carolina. But anyone who'd like reading her book while I read mine, with an occasional comment as we share space on the sofa.

nah you just hate her for your own personal reasons she isn't that bad , just went about things the wrong way.

Yeah im both introverted and shy. I'm terrible at starting a conversation. funny enough my top 3 would be the best for me IRL ( that is if you only look at their personalities and not their issues)

Tho Id think Nicki would be the best one for me out of the bunch ,
