VN Ren'Py Summer's Gone [S1 Steam + DLC] [Oceanlab]

[BobTheDuck]

You're failing to account for why she's like that. It's the same reason Nika is the way he is. Extreme trauma and its' impact on their lives. If the game goes where it should, and if Nika and Bella end up together, you should be able to help each other heal and get better as people. They understand each other that well. Either that or it's Sid and Nancy or Bonny and Clyde time.

Nah, not forgetting. I'm not sure I've ever seen two traumatised people heal together, they usually tear themselves apart. I also think, that Bella's been a wild card for way too long a time - Amber's been pretty slack dealing with it, and she can't be that naive when Bella leaves guns around her bedroom, comes home with a new car that Amber didn't pay for... we know Bella doesn't work with Mila waiting tables, so where does her cash come from?

I'm thinking Natural Born Killers or Fightclub are the best examples.

It's the eternal debate between who is the original and who is the couple between Katie and Bella

But we know the answer and we're so obnoxiously right

Awwww, the Movie Version of FC had the happiest ending ever! Don't remember the book much, it's been a few decades.

Also, for a prominent psychiatrist with a stellar reputation, Amber seems much shadier than it would seem. She definitely was coming on to Nika, if subtly, and she does mention that she's failed to help Bella (she tried, if that's so, which would be seriously unethical, you're not supposed to shrink your immediate family).

I had shit therapy for a long time that either didn't help me or made things worse, until I found a therapist that understood me as much as he understood my problems. He was able to reach me and relate to me well enough that I got some catharsis and understanding of some of my underlying issues. Some people are easier to help than others.

it's just me or the new Ayua kind of look... worse ? her face is just too round now lol, the old Ayua is kind of generic but she look better, not to mention she look 15 years older than the rest of the friend group now xD

Yeah her character model is one of the least consistent. There's renders in which she looks amazing and others where she looks kinda ugly. Then there's the grandma haircut that she gets for a scene or two that makes her look 40.

Gotta look past it.

 

[Maviarab]

ty, so it not something she did in the game, just because of her fan, right ?

It's because she's a slut for the streets!

Why are you talking about Nami like that?

For those interested, Petrova is a Czech surname.

I'm pretty sure that it could be from a number of slavic nationalities. Could be Russian, Belorussian, Bulgarian, you already named Chech. Likely a lot more.

bulgarians are barely slavs by any definition.
and petrova isn't really a fellow balkan slav last name.
she's most likely russian.... even more so, because fuckin' MAFIA.

Why is it so popular as a vampire surname?

Bulgarian is a South-Slavic language by classification, names are (usually) based on language or religion. Bulgaria also happens to be an Orthodox country.
I've met a couple Bulgarians and heard them talking, I could recognize some words since I know Russian quite well. Many Bulgarian names are also quite similar to Russian names.
And unless Wiki is mistaken (could easily be), Petrova is one of the most common surnames in Bulgaria. But sure, Russian is more likely.

I'm pretty sure that organized crime families exist everywhere. Sometimes it's in the military, though.

It's not that popular. But there is this Vampire series, and one of the main character's surname was Petrova. Teens liked that series a lot. I did watch it but wasn't a fan. I liked The Originals more. It was my kind of type, more dark and bloody!

Sometimes? Like getting a cold sometimes? lol

Like Myanmar. Thailand, too, but there's plenty of organized crime there as well.

Mafia reasons.
Family name in a show that dealt with vampire families. Family names being consistent is kind of a rare treat in the Oceanverse so I understand.

 

[Penfold Mole]

also, serbian and russian is quite similar too but they are 2 very different slavic languages.

the names are similar because petrov means his, petrova means hers. so petrov is the last name but a female would be petrova.
that is present in russia, ukraine, belarus, macedonia, bulgaria and serbia, however, to a much lower extent in the last 20 years.
serbia is orthodox, too, but they use this system more ironically than otherwise in recent times.

Yes, I was aware of this. Thanks for the longer explanation though.

thats also why i said its barely slavic. it has some slavic characteristics but has plenty more turkish in it.

Thanks, now I understand what you were talking about. Quite the same could be said about Hungarian language being Finno-Ugric.

SG educational

I've heard a lot about Balkan banditry, but I haven't heard about Balkan mafia, on the other hand, I've heard a lot about Russian mafia,
thanks to games and movies)

 

[Maccabbee]

lol.. comparing organized crime in the balkans vs organized crime in russia. i mean, what? xD
its like 100% russian, especially in 'murica.

Yeah, absolutely. Besides, didn't the ex-KGB take over the Bratva?
