VN Ren'Py Intertwined [v0.13.2] [Nyx]

[MilesEdgeworth]

But did she ask one of her friends who was in nice guy mode at the time for advice on how she could get alone time with Zane without any parents present and did that nice guy perhaps set them up with a hotel room which he set up for them in a romantic setting just because he was such a nice guy?

Until we get any information to the contrary we can assume that Zane has no knowledge of the sex tape (he seemed genuinely blindsided and devastated by Erynn not being his prom date, which is not the reaction of a guy who has just set her up with a sex tape).

So Erryn was so desperate to have sex that she ran to Ethan, of all people, as opposed to having Zane make the arrangements? You could be right. So far, all the clues we've seen would support your thesis instead of mine, and Erryn doesn't seem to think it's him. However, I don't trust Zane. Whether Ethan had something on him and blackmailed him, or he did it for bragging rights, I have the feeling that Zane will have been responsible for the recording when all is revealed.

I think you are right i have tried to bring this up before but most don't seem to agree. I think Ethan and Zane are Linked in this game in a very bad way. worse than Zach becoming the Ex friend of MC.

That's the important part in making him also a victim, he was still intent on taking her to prom.
Doesn't sound like a guy who sold her out.

If he did sell her out, he sure didn't know for what Ethan was going to use the tape.

They were all in the same school together, perhaps Zane was the patsy that asked Ethan for help(i'd say this is the most likely scenario).
Erynn says she has no idea how Ethan knew of their date(and was able to tape it).

 

[UnoriginalUserName]

Everyone seems to be forgetting that Erynn is blonde and dumb as a box of rocks (as are a lot of these characters). Don't give me any of that "naive" shit; she's fucking stupid.

For all we know Ethan could have overheard Zane talking about his date plans with Erynn. How he's booked a hotel for them, then all it takes is for Ethan to call the hotel pretending to be Zane to confirm the booking, to find out what room they are staying at and what time. Then book that room before them, hide a small camera and voila. I seriously doubt that it goes beyond that.

I will say at least Erynn's trauma is what plays into her stupidity , which I can accept. While other characters are just stupid because it's their characters , it's what is called for into the plot otherwise we wouldn't be having this Ethan plotline still go on for example. Or Nyx wants to play into the whole young adults are stupid at times ( the MC)

The girl who is studying to be a math teacher is stupid? Sure buddy.
Has she been naive over the blackmail stuff? Sure. But sometimes you can't see the wood for the trees, when you are directly involved in something like that. Sometimes it takes an outside perspective or outside help, who is not "directly" involved to help you through it. Which is what the MC is doing.

Certainly no shortage of examples on the MC's latest dates. Some are just painful to even imagine a person saying those things at all, let alone even in a AVN.

Let alone in real life! Otherwise scammers wouldn't make millions worldwide from scams as dump as pretending to be from the "national police force" or tax revenue agency of the country "you" live in that just happened to find child pornography on your computer, figured out who you were, and for the low price of thousands of dollars in Google Play gift cards they can make the charges miraculously disappear!

The MC sure does love pushing those boundaries. Honestly surprised he didn't get slapped a few times there.
I put alot of it down to hot guy privilege. Plus even though it's technically a first date they are already smitten with him.

I reckon you get brave when the first girl you bang lets you keep the pics you took of her tits when yall were strangers.

Iris definitely helped turn him into the perv that he is today. She corrupted the hell out of that boy, sorry Patreon I mean man. Yup that totally 18 year old man...

With as much money and contacts the story often shows him to have this wouldn't be difficult at all.

The early part, that a HS aged Erynn agreed to go to prom with Ethan to make the sextape "go away", i can kinda buy that, naive, sure... but sounds like something a innocent young girl might do.
After that it gets much tougher, signing with his dad's company, doing these escorting jobs for years...

But i guess she needed the MC to get her to start looking for a way out.

Yeah, she is. If you think a degree in any subject automatically equates in any way to actual intelligence you clearly haven't met too many "highly educated" people. For example, there are a LOT of really, really fucking stupid doctors.

Didn't Erynn say to the MC that she didn't know that it was Ethan's dad's company before she signed with them? At her place after the MC helps her with Ethan? If she just signed with a company name, rather than looking who owns it or who's in charge of it, which I can understand. Especially if they are a big company.

 

[jadepaladin]

I was all set to defend Erynn and then realized I was about to defend an imaginary character from a stranger on the internet. Glad I slapped the brakes on that idea.

 

[Dessolos]

I was just thinking about the whole costume party with Alexis. I hope Erynn dresses up as Yennerfer with the few times he has mentioned Witcher 3 be perfect. ( not sure if all the costumes have to be animal themed or just Alexis wants hers to be)

I don't want to get too off-topic here, but do you have any idea of the grades that it takes to get into medical school? If you're trying to say that they may lack "common sense" or "street smarts" then sure. There are many people out there considered to be geniuses in their field who can't boil an egg, does that make them stupid?

You see how many steps you have to take for it not to be Zane. Zane would have to assume he's getting lucky that night brag to a friend that he's going on a date somewhere where Ethan has to be, and buy a motel room super early ( given their age, I doubt it's an overnight stay), have Ethan use his connections to get into said motel room and set up a camera.
It makes more sense for Zane to be involved in whatever is happening. Whether or not he was a willing participant is debatable.
