Update 1.83

LOL literally laughing my ass off becouse of "la guantá sin manos", it's the last thing I was expecting to read here. Un abrazo, paisano!

Aldolfooo

Man, his route can go all over the place depending on what you choose! So many little changes in his dialog...

DyneWulf

I thought it was something like Darius didn't want to admit his feelings bc of Spencer, until Spencer gives him permission, and that's why both were sad that day

Asio Doxos

I really like all the different ways this update goes considering I have multiple route directions for Darius. But of course, my peanut brain hones in on the possibility of viewing Richard Nudes. LOL Can't wait for the next update~

You. You know. :B I'd never dream of tampering with author intent for a creative piece like this and it's a testament to your writing that you make characters and scenarios ultimately feel relatable enough to evoke reaction in your audience. But please try not to keep us in suspense too long, I'm on edge as it is dealing with all the drama in Chester's route xD

Quite the interesting thought you've had there. Was it just mere coincidence? Or was it more?! Who knoooooows...

DyneWulf

You're absolutely right, especially in light of the conversation Spencer and the player character had immediately prior. But if Darius were exploiting the situation...eh, I dunno. I should stress I really don't want it to be true as over the years I've enjoyed Darius' route for being a much slower burn and having interesting character drama over the others, but yeah maybe I'm just projecting a little xD

LMAO. I mean we can't confirm or deny your theory, but Spencer isn't the type to do things like this, and Darius is growing protective of MC as the route goes on, so chances are unlikely for your theory to be true.

Am I the only one who thinks after spending time at Spencer's and he's like "Oh I got stuff to do" after the Darius text exchanges, that Spencer went over to Darius' place? I dunno, I raced through the next day hoping for some payoff to that coz I really felt anxiety for the main character. I swear if it turns out both of them did something and they were complicit in keeping it a secret from the main character I might give up on Darius and fall back on Chester coz damn that'd be just too cold. I mean it's well written, but I dunno how much more we could really forgive Darius for. But kudos at any rate on another good update!

True, and I do like that you've started addressing Spencer's feelings in most of the routes where he and the MC don't get together. I'm curious to see if he'll ever have one of those massive "Dude, I love you!" moments in any of the routes. Also excited to see how you plan on having him behave in Coach's and Chester's routes, as I think those are the only two where he doesn't let on how he feels.

HE is telling a lot of lies. More so than Darius even! And that's fun to know x3 I like that there is a saying for that.

DyneWulf

Spencer is kinda doing it to himself though! He should just be honest about it. We're getting close to that point! The MC has set his own deadline, so we'll see what happens.

DyneWulf

Although we personally think that Spencer is telling lie after lie to the MC, there's something we want to share with you: In Southern Spain, there is a name for what Maria does to Darius at the end of the update. It's called "guantá sin manos" (handless/no-hands slap), meaning that you make someone feel slapped without having to raise a single hand. The more you know.

Chema

Damn it, Dyne. Seeing Spence like that is just... maaaan. I can't take the guilt. Or the MC not realizing what the hell is going on with his bestie. :P Kudos on another good update, and I'm looking forward to seeing if Darius finally mans up and admits that he loves the MC. We were sooooo close!

Kusho

*smacks head* I don't know why I didn't see that, so Spence does love you he just panicked and switched it to him

Donovan Grayson

Bruh. Spence loves MC. He said I love yo him... he literally covered it up, and MC's dense ass couldn't even figure that out...

Allen Walker

It's a favorite of mine!

DyneWulf

Read what Spencer says carefully and how he handles what he says.

DyneWulf

Read trough the lines

I get feeling left out that was totally fine, but hearing Spence still loves Darius after the way he's acted up until that point threw me for a loop, maybe because I always assumed Spencer had feelings for you, kind of like in Dozer's route.

Donovan Grayson

I'd say it's pretty realistic. I tend to feel that way sometimes, although not in love situations, but more as friends becoming closer and me feeling left out because i'm not as close. It's a stupid feeling but it really eats you up on the inside. And I guess in Spencer's situation it was his former lover and his childhood friend/ crush getting together that bothers him, and he feels like he's left out and lost both chances with them!

Allen Walker

that...admission from Spence kind of came out of nowhere and didn't really seem to suit his character, compared to what we've seen until now that is

Donovan Grayson

That embarassed expression is totally adorable <3
