I think Elspeth is a pacifist not because she doesn't like violence, but because deep inside she is thrilled by it and tries to hide it and take under control. And that's why she says that she is the same person as Valentine. Because she herself is a monster that likes to hurt people, like him.

Well, she instigated that fight on the beach in Majorca. She likes to get the better of lesser ones, for sure. Though, not sure if that's inherent or just an acquired taste from years in the service. But I gyuess enjoying violence makes her feel like a monster, as well. Or it might be just killing people in the military. Whatever it is, she certainly has her demons, even though she's a genius.

Just now
I apologise for my absence these past few days, had some stuff come up that kept me away from the PC the past few days. But I'm back to the grind and playing catch up.
A scene I'm working on for this update required me to test out some longer hair on the lovely Ines, when I put on a new hairstyle I like to run some test renders with it, make sure it lights well and moves well as well, then the test renders usually go into the vault of unseen renders. This time around I decided that the scene wasn't very long and Ines is kind of cute with the longer hair so I decided to share one of the renders out of the vault.
Part Eight info here, We have about 3071 rendered of the 3219 posed. No exciting superlatives here, just average work.
Animation is still on the backburner mostly, getting some scenes set up and prepared for the heavy work but nothing major.
Nothing further to share this week, thank you as always for the support both here and with Steam, and I hope you all have a lovely rest of your week.
Sláinte!
EDIT: Forgot to add the image. Sorry

Is Verity the supermodel/popstar who Valentine was dating for a while? I can’t remember what happened between them.

they are even worse in real life, very little satisfaction in suckling from them on top of looking funny
Her brother was an asshole who openly did what he wanted, her father is also a bit strange, so I think its inherent, but sure, army life probably made it worse. Adair family is not a big happy family of geniuses, as it seems.

My take was that she didn't instigate it, per se. She observed that the fight was going to happen regardless, wanted to fight, and took the initiative to gain superior tactical positioning. She reads people and situations really well, which would track with her being in Military Intelligence.

Yup. She started a smear campaign on him after the relationship ended. It's why he has that playboy persona in the media and you can lean into it or not through choices.
But he was the one who broke up with her right? Would be interesting if we could meet her now or even like supermodels now though I highly doubt that will happen.

Yeah pretty sure he broke up with her. I'm not sure if she will make an appearance or not. She could for drama sake, as a way to show he's moved past her, but honestly if she doesn't show up, it's fine. There's enough moving parts in the story without her.
Brief follow-up in this: the dev has said there will be two different throuple paths (which are different than one-off threesomes).

I don't know if I'm just desensitized to this or what but I consider throuples vanilla now.
Well, poly isn't that uncommon in real life either (about 1 in 9 people have tried it), so that makes sense not to consider it unusual.I don't know if I'm just desensitized to this or what but I consider throuples vanilla now.
Just wanted to point it out since many still would consider only monogamy to be vanilla.
We never see Verity, at least until now, but we know that Valentine did some bodyguard work for her, then they were in a relationship. Valentine realised that they weren't compatible at all, so he broke up with her, then she went on for a smear campaign filled with lies, using her fame etc.
geniuses are almost never happy. That's nothing new. However even though he may be weird, Els' father isn't some kind of sociopath, like her big brother. Els isn't one either, but like I said, she has her demons for sure.
I argued the same point for days here. I have no intentions of doing the same again. That's why I wrote what I wrote. But I am with you 100% on that hill.

Most people do not truly understand real violence, the military, martial arts, or being geniuses (duh). You think and plan on another level, there's a completely different paradigm on how you operate.
