Ren'Py Lessons in Love [v0.43.0] [Selebus]

[Algorist]

Hey guys, is there any info which girls will be in the next update?

As far as I understand, there aren't girl-specific events planned for 0.35.

The next update is a Halloween event chain. It should consist of main events (18, to be precise. Maybe some of them are disguised Happy Events, as the presence of the Egg of the Perfect World may indicate a possible reset.) and 2 Lust events.

Similarly, 0.36 is the Christmas Update and probably consists of a main-event chain. So, no one in particular.

Someone, I believe user Angra Shadow, speculated the following girls for 0.37:

Rin, Sana, Chinami, Karin, Osako and Tsukasa.

Rin seems to sometimes have a "Doctor's appointment" for a "check-up":

Albeit, whatever it is, blatantly ain't working.

Fortunately(?), Rin seems to have been too distracted lately to think the thoughts that cause it.

Edit: Also yeah, Ami is definitely helping Makoto whether it counts or not. Even to the point where Maki seems a little jealous:

Ami might just end up being the classes's therapist at this rate.

Very clearly not if we've now gotten TWO separate incidents of self harm. It's obvious these aren't just standard physicals she's going to given what we know about her, there is an almost guaranteed chance some psychological and wound care aspects are involved. That's, of course, assuming these appointments are even real, they could just be excuses to find a place no one can stop her because she knows it's too busy everywhere the others could show up. Just look at the difference between those sets of images, she's in rough shape when she 'gets back from her appointment' when she absolutely should not be any worse than she was when she brought it up before. I would rather believe her, but I can't, she's too much of a risk to herself to believe she's not just going some place she can't be interrupted.

I don't think she's too distracted, I think her mind is definitely on the potentially bad thoughts, particularly centered around Otoha, but I think she just doesn't have the time plus she has at least four people who know she does these things and one has been shown to care enough to intervene if needed.

Fortunately, Rin seems to have been too distracted lately to think the thoughts that cause it.

Shit, seeing Rin (mostly) extremely happy these past few updates had me almost forgetting about her struggle with depression.

I don't even want to imagine what she'll do when she discovers Otoha cheated. Poor Rin. You know what? Fuck Otoha. I hate her (actually, I don't, even though I like Rin a lot, like, x1000 more than her.) Strangely, I find myself incapable of despising anyone in this game.

On another thought, Rin x Chika sounds (and would look) fantastic. They complement each other very well. Her talk with Rin in some update (beach?) was great; One of my favorite scenes in recent updates. Rin is quite affectionate, similar to Chika. Otoha seems distant.

Of course, knowing this game, this won't happen or will backfire spectacularly.

Not entirely relevant, but this reminded me that Rin may have time skipped along with Ayane, Maya, Sensei, Tsuneyo, and Yumi, in a way, recently:

This, on top of the Otoha stuff, losing the Sensei test to Yasu, the Nodoka stuff, Rika stuff, Molly stuff, etc.

Man, Rin is so going to crash sooner or later once she actually has time to think. I also wouldn't be surprised if she's been harming herself in the background, and Sensei as well as us, have been too busy to notice.

I'm about as excited for future Rin events as I am wary of them.

i agree and to add to this Otoha from the begining didnt trust Rin and wanted to keep her away from Chika and Sensei even when Rin told her to trust her. Chika been shown to be very trusting in a relationship. Otoha dosent let Rin be herself something that Chika called her out on during the beach trip. i mean the more toxic Otoha get in the relationship just highlight how much better Chika is for Rin

this game ment to have a bunch of different endings i really hope Rin x Chika is one of them

I really hope not, but I do suspect it. Can't trust someone known for doing it to not be doing it until they are confirmed not to be. This is why it is recommended to keep an eye on and seek help for people like this, so they can be treated and don't get the chance to keep doing harm or escalate it. We haven't even seen the peak of where her issues can take her and that's the really scary part. It isn't even Ami or the gods that we have to worry about her becoming a victim of like Yumi is suspected having become as mentioned before, it's herself, her own two hands are the biggest danger to her right now.

One very big clue that tells me she has never stopped or even tried and may not even be seeking help at all was when Molly found out, those wounds were fresh, she had literally just done them guaranteed.

I struggle to see Otoha x Rin lasting that much longer, especially based off how Otoha is starting to treat her:

However, whether or not Sensei will be a "Good Homie" and let Rin know Otoha cheated, or he'll be a "Bad Homie" and hope that keeping it from Rin will somehow lead to both Rin and Otoha sucking his cock down the road, is up in the air.

I can see him rationalizing that what Rin doesn't know, won't hurt her, then acting like he didn't know, when it does hurt her anyway. Which will also probably hurt her on top of it, because I doubt Otoha won't just throw Sensei under the bus, once it comes out, like she did with his name to Nodoka.

 

[Angiboat]

I can't tell if it was said in the game or if I woke up from a LiL related dream earlier, was Io saying her Uncle beat her up a real thing or was it actually just a dream I had?

I wouldn't count out Rin being a victim of the gods, on top of her mind. Rin is one of the few people Sensei truly seems to care about:

And I'd assume that, that, alone makes her a target.

Not to mention she's also a virgin and could easily be the thing HOPE wants Sensei to take. Especially considering she's also in a relationship meaning she technically belongs to someone else.

 

[DeSkel15]

I feel like I'd recall that if it was mentioned, and I don't, so probably dream. If I do come across it though, I'll let ya know.

It does seem like Io was hurt by someone though:

Whether her vagina really was damaged, she was raped, or something else entirely, I'm not sure.

 

[DarkDaemonX]

I believe I've read it said here that Sel isn't into anal, so I always assumed that pegging was out too. I could be wrong, but I always figured it was one of those things teased for a laugh that will never happen especially with how Sensei is so adamantly against it.

Yet anal is mentioned so many times, and he actually fucked Sara's ass as well (unknowingly, but still), so why mention it in your game so much if you're not into it, is Selebus a masochist and likes thinking about stuff he doesn't like?

 

[DarkDaemonX]

Still has "heavy themes", and the MC is still trash, but he's actually trying to be better, now, maybe. We'll see how long that lasts. Still rather fucked up though. Albeit, I suppose it depends on your perspective, just how fucked up.

Ami is more fucked up than Akira now, she's literally a tiny mention of the loops away from killing everyone.

So, Random Theory Time: Niki is intended to be Sensei's "True Love".

Now, as far as has been revealed, pre resets, Sensei has only ever been with 3 people:

• Sekai, who seemed to be notably jealous of Niki, and probably still is:

• Maya, who has been and still is jealous of Niki without ever actually meeting her:

• And Niki, who is unaware of Sekai having a relationship with Sensei, before her, and Maya having one, after her, to the point she wondered if Sensei was currently a virgin recently:

Well, after recent events have been revealed about Sensei's character, it seems appropriate to say, that the more Sensei cares about a person, the less he actually tries to fuck them. This is especially notable with Imani vs Rika:

Albeit, this could even apply to the likes of Ami, Noriko, Rin, and Sana through out the game.

Keeping that in mind, It's been established that Sensei never pushed Niki to have sex. It's likely the main reason Niki was almost a 30 year old virgin, until she recently convinced Sensei to fuck her:

Unlike Imani or the rest of the girls, Sensei actually dated Niki, so, him of all people, not really trying to fuck her was most likely just his way of caring about her. There wasn't even really a friendship in the way like with Imani, since they dated for 5 years:

Now, compare it to his relationship with Sekai and Maya, which seemed to revolve around sex:

and there's definitely something special about Niki. Even the possibility that Sekai forbade Sensei to fuck her, seems unlikely considering Sekai's character:

And, all these years later, the one memory Sensei seems to have regained is the night he and Niki first kissed:

On top of this, Niki is the one who helped Sensei remember his first name:

Which even Sensei considers "a big deal".

I think Sensei even saying he's in love with Niki means a whole lot more than him saying he loves anyone else. Probably even Maya. Especially considering how open he has already been about his love for Niki:

Overall: based off who Sensei is as a person, and the context surrounding his and Niki's relationship, it seems like she might be intended to be his actual "True Love".

At least, as far as someone like him could love. It also helps that their love seems to be the most healthy one.. and that's saying something.

I still have so much shit to read through but I'm inserting myself here as a Niki propaganda enjoyer once again (Please also insert Wakana and her not yet fleshed out gf (I GUESS) into this equation) to say: Fuckin based.

Ami is more fucked up than Akira now, she's literally a tiny mention of the loops away from killing everyone.

I doubt it. Especially after the recent beach update:

I'd be more worried about Maya or Sensei, tbh.

DRM care package v2:

Patched gui.rpy (install this in your LiL/game folder to disable the DRM)
Hidden-code-free summerdorm2monsecond.png (just to eradicate the DRM for completeness)

Original .30 script.rpy (in case yours gets schwacked)
1-1-LT1.save - Complete 0.29 Good Uncle save (needs Guide Mod in original post to work, even the older version will work)

I'm sure someone can provide a Bad Uncle save if needed.

On a semi-related note, the fishing game seen in some early porn shop events with posters - Hero's Harem Guild - supposedly updates today after 2.5 years on hiatus

Crazy how we've gotten to a point where a guy who's delayed updates that long has done markedly less damage to his own community than in this one, one of the most regularly updated games in the biz.

where do I put/what do I do with the .png

 

[alex2011]

You know, one thing that has been bothering me for a while now. We've seen Rin in her bikini with uncovered arms, we've seen Rin cutting herself, but we never see the marks on her arms in those bikini scenes. That level of cutting is not going away overnight if it ever does, especially with how long she's been at it.

I struggle to see Otoha x Rin lasting that much longer, especially based off how Otoha is starting to treat her:

I can see him rationalizing that what Rin doesn't know, won't hurt her, then acting like he didn't know, when it does hurt her anyway. Which will also probably hurt her on top of it, because I doubt Otoha won't just throw Sensei under the bus, once it comes out, like she did with his name to Nodoka.

Considering the "fuck Otoha" scene, I don't think it will, thankfully. What Sensei will probably learn the hard way is, with a girl like Rin, what she doesn't know actually WILL hurt her. She'll find out eventually and it may end up being even worse because she's been thinking like she has plus she may even find out Sensei knew and decided not to tell her. This has potential to blow up massively as we're looking at several points that could hurt her that can also converge into one big hit to her mental and emotional state.

I wouldn't count out Rin being a victim of the gods, on top of her mind. Rin is one of the few people Sensei truly seems to care about:

Oh no, certainly not, she's both swinging toward other girls at the moment and in a relationship on top of not having experience in game, or we can assume ever, and that makes her a prime candidate for what HOPE wants out of Sensei assuming some form of non-consensual or dubiously consensual sex is what he wants Sensei to do. However, she has the power, she has the tools, and she has shown tendencies that could put her in more immediate danger than the gods would put her in seeing as the conditions for consequences have yet to be met. She could do any of that before they even have a chance to use her, the next in game day from where we left off even. That's how unpredictable people with that kind of thing going on can be.

Hi, when is the next update ?
