What do you notice? Not yet, then continue:

1. I claim Erynn and Iris are the same age
2. Erynn and Iris are very similar
3. Erynn and Iris are similar in nature

What else would come to mind? That's exactly what the novel is about.

The catch to the story is: What does Nyx actually have in mind and why doesn't Iris appear in the list of available LIs?

The tricky part being, without knowing, Iris keeps trying to get in her sister's pants lol.
But you know, she's getting nowhere and the words she often uses "i feel a special connection"(rather than "i just wanna eat her up" or something along those lines) can easily be flipped to that "somehow i always knew".
I wouldn't put much stock on that list, it's constantly changing and Iris was a late intro to the story.
Or maybe Nyx means for Iris to sacrifice herself protecting Erynn from something.
I hope this isn't the reason Iris isn't on that list.

I like Iris also so I hope Nyx isn't going in that direction. That smells of 80s action Hollywood, 80s soap opera and 70s anime.

I call that cliche the noble sacrifice. But if done well can be emotionally devastating more so in this game. But hope to God Iris will make it to the end. It will make the choice between Erynn or Iris more poignant depending on which lady you prefer or if you like them both.

Despite being a cliché, it still hits hard when used with good timing.
With that said i hope this isn't the plan for Iris.

And another example of them acting like each other lol.

Another user already mentioned it in the thread (was it you?) that with Iris in tears while listening to John and the MC discuss plans to help Erynn, she's the kind of person who - once finding out they're related - would do something drastic to help Erynn. She could do this especially if Ethan pulls out some trump card to trap Erynn even further or as we fear for the next updates kidnaps Erynn.

Solution: Let Zach take the bullet.

She felt very sad for Erynn, no doubt she will want in and help with the situation... which might lead to, you know.

MC and Iris broke up because John and Iris had to move away, so them considering getting back together isn't out of the question. You can see Iris thinking about it as she walks away after accidentally kissing him bye after they deplane.

Erynn and Iris are definitely not the same age, they are either 1 or 2 years apart. And John pretty much recognized Erynn when they met in the garage, he just doesn't realize why yet. The upcoming scene when John comes to pick up Emily for a date and she introduces him to her best friend & neighbor (or however it happens) is gonna be a doozy.

Spoilers but Iris has an even bigger "i want to get back together" moment if you go to the club with Alexis and her.
John saying Erynn reminds him of someone he knew when he was young is just adding fuel to the fire of him being her dad.
Erynn herself realizes this guy perfectly fits the profile she's searching for.

Your take has one slight mistake, Andres was the one who broke up with her when told that she was pregnant from another guy(the guy he hates), so she can't be blamed for that, Andres ended things opening the path for her to scoot her way back to her number 1.
Click to expand...
I don't think there is a mistake, when you tell your bf that you are pregnant from your ex that's the end of it. How she said it was very clear indication it was her idea anyway. I am pregnant from my ex and I don't want anything from you, what was this?

LSC82 said:
The game wants to portray this thing as "Emily did this innocently and Andres overreacted", not "cheater Emily broke up their relationship" even though it's a situation that is at least suspicious as fuck, and disrespectful of your partner...
And to finish things off Nix added a "Andres was always a prick" for good measure.

If you ask me her fear of embracing flaws and dodgy behaviour in women is one of Nyx weak points, in situations like this the game forces a bit too much to say "actually she's done nothing wrong", things like "completely innocent" secret meetings with a former lover strains believability
Click to expand...
Yeah, I completely agree with you. Nyx never cut a slack to Andres. She either had an affair with Santi or Santi became more mature and refused an affair, there is no fucking way that Emily was against the idea. Though I think she outright lied to MC.

Would you date your ex, knowing that it hasn't worked out the first time?
Click to expand...
Depends on ex and how you broke up. In Iris case they did not even broke up officially, an uncertainty was waiting for them and they stopped seeing each other. So it's very possible, on top of that Iris still has feelings for MC.

LSC82 said:
I think you'd be surprised at how many people would want a second shot with someone they once dated, not all of them mind you, but someone specific on that list.

First one for me, I was a plain idiot back then and I fucked it up. So I'd like a second chance on that.

Cool, I'll have to try that but I'm really bad at this game. ;) I have to admit I've done 3 playthroughs and I have yet to NOT fall completely for Layla each time.

Again, i think that's very fair, it just gives her the excuse that she didn't do it, he did.

Having secret meetings with your former flame is an uber dodgy situation... and the way Emily sounds mellow about the guy that put one in the oven and ran doesn't help things either.

Let's see what's said when we meet Santi...
Affair?
Santi not interested(btw, i don't think any women would think fondly of a guy who passed on her, maybe he was already married and she forgave... but still)?
Or somehow completely innocent meetings just to discuss their child?

I don't know but i think somehow we are going to end up with the least believable choice, i highly doubt we will end up with a situation where Andres was right in the end.

Fuck no, please no.

Yeah, i hope i'm wrong on that theory.
Iris didn't set a strong first impression with me but now i think she's a breath of fresh air, contrary to the "lovey dovey" behaviour of most other girls here, Iris is just confident, upfront and full of attitude.
And of course she still feels a big connection to our guy.
Underrated scene few people notice, when we go with Alexis to the dorm room and Iris is dancing naked... one of the questions Alexis asks is basically "What's going on with you? Why are you so happy?" and Iris responds "nothing, i just ran into a person i thought i would never see again."

First one for me, I was a plain idiot back then and I fucked it up. So I'd like a second chance on that.

Yeah... i think most of us are gonna have at least one of these, i know i do.

If any LI has to die I think I rather it be Iris sadly I just kind of like the rest more even Val someone who I think needs alot more character development for me to like for more than her looks. But if we can get Tori or Zach to take the bullet that would be perfect then no LI i like has to die. But my gut feeling tells me it won't be a LI but John that get killed if something like that does happen.
