Hey I'm a bit confused about the elf "chains" here. Currently playing Nia's "going out" event where you go to the juicy burger, and I see Nia wearing this huge rusty chain with padlock, but when I'm out with Lin in any of the other story elements she doesn't have anything like that on. Does her little fabric choker count for the same in the eyes of the law?

That would kinda make sense in a way. But if that was an option. Why would Nia, especially with her place in the story, (avoiding sploilers here) want to wear such a chain if a piece of cloth is also okay?

I suppose another alternative is that Lin is skirting the law massively by being out with just the choker, but that also feels weird. I really don't see her as the kind of elf that would do that. Especially since she also goes to the grocery store by herself. Surely she wouldn't want to be caught without "regulation" chain? Especially when her owner isn't there either.

I may just be reading way too much into this, but I don't really undestand the "rules" for when they're required.

Oh yeah and quick ninja edit, I've really been enjoying this update Runey, thanks for your hard work:)
Those collars are required for elves in public, for whatever reason cops just haven't harassed MC about Lin yet. It happened with Sylvia in one of her love route events. Cloth doesn't count, as Sylvia has a form of a choker as well.

Neither did Cornwall though, and if anyone would care...

*EDIT*
Maybe it's because Lin's is part of her uniform, not her personal clothing.

This was my take as well. Everyone we've met that was a slave, other than maybe the Elf-Queen fake (don't remember), has worn a collar while in public. If they didn't, they weren't actively a slave (Sylvia's first intro) or immediately collared once identified (name omitted to avoid spoilers). Private locations such as the slave building and one used for Cornwell's challenge, none wear collars. Jin, when first brought to us is wearing a collar - in theory, since she was traveling in public.

That might be a freebie with explaining Lin. She's the "help" and being accompanied by her owner. Her chasing you down when kidnapped would have been hampered if she had been seen by an officer though most like. Also when you meet Cornwell it's what... at a park for a speech? He's one of the richest / most influential people in the world, there would have been a police presence yet no one stopped the MC at that time. So we either hand-wave it by or accept that Lin's uniform collar was adequate but Sylvia's was not because it wasn't an actual uniform?

Yeah, with Sylvia, she is wearing something that looks more like cosplay than anything else. But a maid's uniform, that is clear as day.
IDK, maybe she is lowjacked (chipped).

It's more of a cultural thing than a legal thing. If you run into a cop trying to find a reason to give you a ticket, he can use not having a collar as a reason. But a cop isn't likely to stop his car while on patrol to give someone a small fine. And most people in general aren't going to care what an elf is wearing because they all know there is no getting out of slavery. The collar was always symbolic.

Convincing Kali should be an option - she cosplays already :eek:
Fuck, it ate my response again!

Yeah, Kali is already into degradation play, and stuff like that. She already did a maid, that is just one step further.

The real question is what would the elves (and Vanessa) think? Would it be like blackface in the early 1900's?

Lin could go either way, thinking it is cute or offensive.
Nia, hard to say, she could be outraged or do they old, "now you know how it feels" kind of thing.
Sylvia I think would be offended, but glad that she looks like a common elf, not a high elf.
Vanessa might want to do it too, to feel like an elf, or she could get offended FOR the elves (even of they don't).

I think Lin would join in - she didn't dig Kali in the maid outfit originally so I could see her competitive side coming out again with a maid + ears combo
Nia would prolly complain and then whine about not getting to hit someone with a bat
Slyvia is offended by anyone just existing
Vanessa seems like she might be a freak, but beyond the one scene we kinda need more to know how far the kinks go
