I would hate this so much. There is nothing wrong with her trying to do something herself . If she comes out of the blue and doesn't want the MC help after everything he has done for and the potential danger, she could get into would feel really bad to me. If I had the chance as the MC and she said this I would do my best so she doesn't do it alone. Now if she just tries to do it alone without telling the MC her plans or anything that is different and good for her character growth.Holding someone accountable for their actions and situations is not being judgemental. Its called personal responsibility.
I want Erynn to be responsible for what has transpired and find a way through it without needing the MC.
Nothing would make me happier than at some point in the story it goes like this:
MC: "Hey Erynn, let me help you take care of this final thing for you, and we can be done with Ethan for good."
Erynn: "Thank you for all the help you have given me MC, I needed a hand, and you were there. But its time I see this through on my own. This was my mess, and I need to clean it up - finally, and on my own."
I will jump up cheering when that happens. I look forward to it!
Alexis ain't in love with shit, she's still in the lust phase. Hence why their relationship is so all or nothing. Layla I'll give you. Iris, Im not so sure about.Knowing your an Erynn fan here is a question that's not exactly fair but you're a balanced dude so here it goes.
It seems to me that if we consider which LI (or potential LI) is in the deepest love with the MC (on their path or whatever). I really gotta say it's Iris then probably Alexis and Layla. Erynn might get there but I just don't think their relationship has matured enough yet for that to be the case. Plus she has other shit distracting her.
Thoughts?
I may not have made myself clear.I would hate this so much. There is nothing wrong with her trying to do something herself .

He's not entitled to come around acting like an asshole, after he was an asshole for the last 5 years... i'm starting to wonder why you consider this "reasonable" or he is in a position to make demands.I won't disagree with any of that except for the last of MC wanted to talk (very aggressively).
He is finally using his words here and choosing to actually talk about what started the whole rift. That's his growth instead of just running away again.(which he is almost ready to do again, but you the player are given the choice to show that growth.)
She witnessed some of it yes, which is why she understands why the MC doesn't like Ethan.To the first point, you are 100% correct.
To the second, she has witnessed the bullying or its at least very strongly implied, otherwise why does she say in the flashback:
Erynn: "Why do you always bully him?"
Ethan: "What? Why not? It's funny."
Bullying takes many forms, so she knows Ethan has bullied the MC. What she may not have witnessed is that it went physical, but regardless of that, bullying is bullying.
If we can't establish different levels of how Erynns trauma works, then the same goes for what bullying constitutes where the MC is concerned.
What exactly are you holding Erynn accountable for, getting blackmailed?Holding someone accountable for their actions and situations is not being judgemental. Its called personal responsibility.

Come back for the tori -layla stan fights later this weekOk no likes means "take a break".
Just want to thank all you fools for providing such great fun and entertainment. This side, that side, LI this and LI that it doesn't really matter. Y'all a great bunch of folks and I'm lucky to mix it up with you. Peace to the brothers.
I'm confused: how is he an asshole for speaking his mind here and getting to the bottom of what really happened 5 years prior?He's not entitled to come around acting like an asshole, after he was an asshole for the last 5 years... i'm starting to wonder why you consider this "reasonable" or he is in a position to make demands.
It's good that he spoke his mind, but he was out of line acting like that.
That's not the point of contention. Its her continued relationship with Ethan while trying to rekindle the friendship with MC, AND knowing it will come out, but delaying when it does.She witnessed some of it yes, which is why she understands why the MC doesn't like Ethan.
She would still be within her rights to hang out with him, if she thinks that he's grown and became a better guy since.
We don't get to chose who our friends are friends with.
And all this discussion is a fucking moot point as it relates to Erynn because both you and i know that Erynn hangs out with Ethan against her will and not because she wants to.
This right here,she needed to nip this in the bud much sooner. As with most things in life that people try to hide, the more you do so, the more it will hurt when it comes out.What exactly are you holding Erynn accountable for, getting blackmailed?
Yeah she could've handled it better, i just made a post to Maviarab touching on that.
I respectfully, disagree.And if you JeSinclair (not the MC anymore)comes around from your position of oversight and knowledge, criticizing characters for not handling things exactly the way that you want them too, you are judging.
LOL!Come back for the tori -layla stan fights later this week
I kind of disagree with this because Ethan tricked her into thinking he changed , after the MC left. At that point I think alot of people wouldn't think twice about being a friend with someone like that or give them a second chance unless they got some backbone to cut off friends that early in life. I know I never did or would . Then by time the MC came back to town he was blackmailing her. That isn't something you just say right away when you reconnect with an old friend it takes time.That's not the point of contention.

But you are correct on one thing:you did allude to Erynn trying to get it out sooner, and during my replay of the scene from the past and the aftermath, i see the dialogue there so I stand corrected on that.

You are correct. it was before prom...it's the tape Ethan used to blackmail into going to prom with him.So in going over some of that part of the story (Erynn confession to MC, and the aftermath of learning about Ethan blackmail)
I have come to the realization, that Erynn and Zane had sex *prior* to prom(that is how Ethan got his meat-hooks into her).
For whatever reason, I blanked on the when the sex took place.
Question: Prom is not defined here, but I thought it was said to be senior prom. That technically means everyone is around 17. Does that then count as underage sex in the game?
I think that was why some of the Iris dialogue got changed, so it no longer appears to be underage sex with Iris and MC.
If it IS underage sex, then my stance on Erynn shifts slightly more in her favor, as most females are still very uncomfortable with their bodies and it would be an embarrassment/betrayal of a whole other order because of that, and to top it off its her virginity on tape.
Anyone having their virginity on tape(without consent) would be deeply traumatized, but more-so if it was underage.
