Yeah, so she knew about it, but did she know the extent of it? There's a difference between picking on someone and properly bullying them (though I accept it's a nuanced difference). Not an excuse, by any stretch, but even at 15, kids might easily miss the full depth of something like that.
Their is a fine line between Picking on and Bullying and either way i would not be friends with someone that picked on or Bullied a close friend of mine.

One thing you got to remember as well that is how you feel now at your current age but what about when you were that age maybe nothing is different. But not everyone had the backbone and same moral values when they were young hell I didn't. I would let my self get pushed around and be too scared to stand up for my self or anyone else if it came down to it and still be friends with said person even if I knew it wasn't right because I was super shy and introverted. With all that being said you are correct and she should of cut him off completely.

The important thing regarding Erynn is, does this girl deserve a second chance?
My opinion is an unreserved, yes, absolutely.

She cares about the MC, anything she did wrong or attitude that you question... she did it by mistake or poor level of knowledge.
She never had any intention of hurting the MC, she only wanted(and still wants) the best for him.
She only wants to be a good friend(maybe more :love:), and she admits that she should've done better regarding Ethan.

That's the type of person that deserves a second chance.

I get what your saying but do you remember the flash back? She did not lack a backbone or confidence. Remember her telling him off?

100% hell I started the game off not wanting to like her thinking she is your typical mean girl but this and many other interactions with her she is probably one of the nicest and most caring LI ive seen in a AVN she just makes bad decisions. ( probably because she is a bit to nice at times) Like hell I really love how she feeds you and take you to school like she kind of starts to feel like a second mother and giving off a motherly vibe I adore that about her. To me that just shows how much she cares for the MC's well being and future.

Your right about that she does deserve a second chance after MC finds out what really happened. They both was young and to be honest both was at fault her more than him but still. He should have heard her out instead of ignoring her.

I'm like this too, it's why in my first (blind) save I didn't even think about staying with Erynn instead of getting the train with Layla and Elena. A couple of other early interactions got me right in the mood to be kicking Erynn to the kerb, but then she started turning it around. It's another really well-done piece.

Who's everyones favorite from first to last? Mine is Layla, suprise suprise Eryn, Elena, Alexis, Nikki, Val and then Cara.
I've ranked the girls by looks elsewhere (link in my signature), so based on character/personality instead... It's tough, and I'm still fresh to all of them, but I think Layla, Nikki, Alexis, Val, Erynn, Elena, Cara. That'll probably change a bit next time I'm asked, and I'm deliberately not making it harder by adding anyone you didn't :LOL:

About Eryn and Alexis, one of the best scenes is when Alexis thinks you're in college because of her.

true I do forget how the scenes plays out exactly but still my point stands about her being young even if she does have backbone. I think why my thoughts on this is a little strong / alot different than what makes sense and acting like it isn't that big of a deal while it is for others is because of my personal experiences.

Besides the one I gave you I also have another point of view / thought process about said scene because of my personal experiences. Due to her age as well she could of been just defending him but also not thinking about what it means to stay friends or keep someone like him around. I know when I was young I never thought about my actions beyond in that very moment or what certain actions meant for other people / their feelings until it was to late. Granted I never was an asshole to people either so I never really thought about such things until much later in life. I never really critically thought about anything beyond the current moment for a very long time even in my high school years. So it's easy for me to understand how she could be friends with someone like Ethan even while disliking the bullying going on. As the thoughts would of never crossed my mind to stop being friends unless unless said friend told me he didn't want me to or something because of what he was doing to him. Then I probably would distance myself at the very least cut them off not sure cause my personality wasn't really suited for cutting people out of my life as I was to nice.

Now im not trying to make excuses for her cause yeah she should of 100% stopped being friends with Ethan before that moment if she knew about it or right after it happened not arguing that point at all. But my personal experiences allows me to think of it from a different point of view where it doesn't seem as bad as it is. All im trying to say is she is at fault for keeping him around 100000% but I can understand why she might of did so and why it isn't as bad as it seems at least to me because of my experiences and how I was .

Who's everyones favorite from first to last? Mine is Layla, suprise suprise Eryn, Elena, Alexis, Nikki, Val and then Cara.

Not going by looks but for me Erynn , Alexis , Elena / Niki ( both tied) Val , Cara Layla. I don't dislike Layla but she is in the friendzone for me so she is automatically in last

A couple of other early interactions got me right in the mood to be kicking Erynn to the kerb, but then she started turning it around. It's another really well-done piece.
in my blind playthrough I got off the Layla path and on to the Erynn and Alexis one around the 25-50% point where I changed my mind about her. Tho I didn't get on the train with Layla as I wanted to learn and hear Erynn out more.

I'm going to solo each girl when this VN is done, But i tell ya i really have a hard time telling Layla no. To be honest she's really my type looks and personality wise. I was put off by Alexis because how easy she was and the Eryn by past thing with her Nikki is fun i like her. Elena is really a close second because i like her looks and personality, Cara i was a bit disappointed in her visit kinda boring and i don't know much about Val she's a late comer, looks wise she's in top 4

Care to share the screenshots with us all here?
As the friend said, that version might only happen in the multiverse where Alexis is your girlfriend.

Another important thing, the scene of Erin laughing with Ethan is from the MC's point of view, but later the two girls tell it from their perspective, and it wasn't exactly like that.
