If you don't pay attention to the story then you can miss all the hints.To me it felt forced... I dunno... maybe because I had to input it, I got hyper-vigilant on the dialogues, or something, I didn't feel a real connection...

I went with Aunt/ Cousin, and it did work, and made sense, using the default "your counselors daughter" didn't sound natural to meTo me it felt forced... I dunno... maybe because I had to input it, I got hyper-vigilant on the dialogues, or something, I didn't feel a real connection...

Yeah, those were my thoughts as well, that he left to be with his sister or his mom (although I'm more inclined to believe that it's the sister). The way Mike says it makes it feel like he's related to the woman their father was having an affair with.When I was reading this... the only possibility that kinda made sense in my mind was: Judy's Husband left her to be with MC's Sister. I don't know if it is or isn't, but, looking at the dialogues before and after, it made sense TO ME. YMMV.

Though accurate, don’t fret. That is not what I intend. Imagine Planetary University of Technological Advances, but substitute Planetary with whatever floats your boat that starts with P. Just a little play on words.View attachment 5185777
For those who don't speak Spanish, : PUTA = whore, go Puta's can be translated as go whoring
Nah, I had fun with that pun, still trying to figure out how to pronounce "¿Cómo está?" tthat it sounds like described in the VN, 
I like those type ladies. "Lady in the streets, freak in the sheets".
Out of pure curiosity due to the puns at the beginning, are you Spanish or do you speak the language? It's just that it'd be cool to have a fellow speaker around here
¿y yo soy jabón?Out of pure curiosity due to the puns at the beginning, are you Spanish or do you speak the language? It's just that it'd be cool to have a fellow speaker around here
(an I am soap?) did you mange to pronounce ¿cómo está? like described ? just curious
Entiende que soy relativamente nuevo por estos lares, y a veces es difícil distinguir a quienes intentan escribir/hablar en español y quienes de verdad saben¿y yo soy jabón?
Pero siempre es agradable encontrar gente con la que comparto el idioma, me hace sentir un poco más en casa But it's always very nice to find people who have that in common with me, it sort of makes me feel more at home 
Xapi, "Como esta" is a very valid phrase in Portuguese. Meaning, "I eat this one". For example: You are presented with 2 empanadas, one slightly different than the other, you point to one of them and say: Como esta!. Where "Como" is "To eat" and not "How", and "esta" is "This one" and not "está" or "are you".¿y yo soy jabón?
Oh, about the "como esta", that's actually quite a 'literal' translation. Of course, the usual question of "¿Cómo está?" (although that's too formal in the Spanish from Spain, it would actually be "¿Cómo estás?") is translated as "How are you?". But, if you notice the dialogue line, there's actually no diacritical mark, so the accent wouldn't be on the "a" of "esta", but rather on the "e". Of course, since "como" doesn't have a diacritical mark either, it's not used as an interrogative adverb of manner, it works as a relative adverb (sort of). That word is still pronounced the same, but the enunciation and its use is different, thus making the interpretation different as well. So, since the accent varies, the pronunciation is different, and the meaning as well, and as such, instead of saying "¿Cómo está? - How are you?", Mike is saying "Como esta - Like this one." The pronunciation would be with this emphasis: "cOmo Esta." Example of the expression in a sentence: "He comprado varias cosas, como esta moto - I've bought a bunch of stuff, like this bike."¿y yo soy jabón?
Should've put sister for half sister. (although would still break that dialogue note)woops.
jk i didnt actually do that, but I was close, with stepmother and stepsister
my reason for thus is when you get put up with a family and grow with them, they kind of are like your "step family" (related but not by blood) Aunt and Cousin definitely still works, but I felt like there might not have been any relation with the father. Thats my reasoning behind it personally.
Was funny when she goes to call you "cousin" and stepsister came out instead on the car ride. Instantly knew thats what dev meant to have in that dynamic from that dialogue
Or "I eat this one"
For me right now, it has been both
One save as counselor/friends, and another as aunt/cousins. I'll see how the story keeps developing, and if for some reasons them being family-related stops making sense, then I'll just stick to the original one.
In order to make a "proper" pun out of that meaning it would've been better to use "come esta" or "cómeme esta" (sort of like "eat this", "eat my d*ck", etc.), since saying "I eat this one" would only mean that he's saying it incorrectly, but there would be no pun there. Also, it's way more common to use "como esta - like this one" than as "I eat this one" (I honestly think I've never heard it or seen phrased like that before, while properly speaking at leastOr "I eat this one"
FatGiant ; just read your post, after answering Supercocco, yes be it the proximity to Brasil, or something else that was exactly what got me laughing, as I played that part (I wanted to eat the "empanada" of the redhead it seems)
)
I used aunt and cousin, although Supercocco seems to be "Libra" in the zodiac signs, (pathological undecided) FG went with counselor and friend said that appealed more to him.
