Honestly, if it's a red herring it's a rather heavy handed one because, as we already described, Nyx has been hinting at it incessantly... only to go "surprise, it's actually a totally different guy, who just happens to fit the same exact description".I think all the hints of familiarity between Erynn, John, and Iris are a red herring. It's a conclusion that I think the dev is trying to lead people toward but it can still be a misdirection. It's not like that hasn't happened before (Ex: The cliffhanger of AWOL Erynn and the Dumpster Girl)
Also, I think there was some dialogue between Erynn and MC where she said that all she knows of her father is a visual description of him and his name. If we're assuming the visual description is of tall, blonde tattoo'd man named John, then it should have set off some major alarms with Erynn. But it seemed like he reminded her of someone she already knew before and she never met her dad.
But the big flaw with the Papa John theory is his tattoos. I made a post about this a while back. In Chapter 10, the tattoos between John and Melissa's flashback man are distinctly different. But then, even present-time John's tattoos aren't exactly consistant either. Either way, I don't think it's a lock that John is Erynn's dad. Erynn's dad could be that blonde talent scout in the jacket for all we know. The misdirection and guessing games are part of the fun with this dev.
It would be a bad, cheap plot twist at this point to go against soooo many fucking hints.
Does that means that the kids would be brothers(sisters) and cousins? I like it, that's the ultimate IntertwiningThere, fixed it for you. Even more intertwined. You're welcome.
How about this...Yeah, this is the proof that John is Melissa's ex and Erynn's dad, which is real funny for those of us on the Erynn path who're ok with Emily dating him now. I bet Melissa will also be really happy about it, but that's not a problem that a 3some can't fix.
Mc gets in a relationship with Erynn and John dates Emily, Iris and Melissa end up finding each other.
They all live together in one house as one big, happy, almost but not quite incestuous family lol.
