I've been stewing on this some, But it is crazy to me how a majority of the fandom seems to see Jordan as "the nice one". Someone who's genuinely kind and cares about the pc. Babes, you fell for her facade.
I'm sure Pűris propaganda and constant justifications aren't helping in that regard. But genuinely, Jordan isn't a good person. She might not know the extent of things in the temple, but that would still require her to turn a blind eye, deliberately.
She's out here regularly examining people's genitals, when she really doesn't have any business doing that. It's not like she's a gynecologist.
And she reaaallyy doesn't care about the pc and has never cared about them, beyond their connection to- and impact on - Sydney - in my eyes.
Otherwise she wouldn't send you out on "missions" alone. Without any equipment, resources, support or backup. She's sooo unbothered about sending you, some impoverished orphan, out to bumfuck nowhere. Or, right into the arms of the cult. Sure. Pc can't ever reaally fail that mission. But the chances that you'd just disappear into the ether are so damn high. Come on now.
She might appear kind, because shes pretty forgiving by temple standards. But really, why wouldn't she let a little blasphemy slide? You can indoctrinate more people with honey than vinegar after all.
huh... i think the way hair works in this game would need to be reworked to make things work more seamlessly.
sure there will always be issues with it but especially any non straight hair really suffers from the fringe not just being the fringe part but also the rest of the head. so anything else but like... two choices? look glued on like..
idk how doable this is but i think it would have to be segmented into preferable three parts? but that also requires the head to get redone bc. what the hell is that vanilla shape my guy.
been looking at some of the standard hairs and considering reworking them. I really wish there were more hair slots for modded hair like they did for the faces
dunno how much i will actually do but i also considered doing some tweaks to the vanilla sprites for myself just to see how that is.
specifically replacing some of the fringes with non straight hairstyles or redoing some of them bc.. they dont look great tbh.
case in point, i redid the overgrown bangs since finding out that the wasnt a true blunt, eye covering fringe in the vanilla game ruined a potential playthrough for me a while back.
Anyways
the vanilla sprites really need some touching up or reworking.... feel like the team would do well to either focus on polishing gameplay aspects/character writing or do some quality of life updates for the vanilla sprite. Instead of bloating the game with additional gameplay loops.
I want Avery to be absolutely ruined after Dee forcefully leashes, doms, fucks and then ghosts her. (Incredibly evil and totally unintentional on Dee’s part)
Just absolutely delirious and unable to get any amount of shut eye without having another wet dream about it. Its the first time she’s called sick in years, nothing she does can fully get it out of her head. Every time she tries to work through it she just gets another hard on and has the strong impulse to swallow her on tongue and tear out her hair. She seeks out a few of her other sugar babies, even picking up some new girls, in hopes of getting that fucking incident out of her head, but it’s just not the same.
Some of the girls are too meek, or clingy, or small. Some are bratty but don’t have the right attitude or fold too quickly once faced with glimpses behind her facade. Some are simply too pale or.. too flat. And their eyes just don’t seem to have that same bottomless shade of black.
Worst of all, the fucking whore who put her into this situation in the first place has suddenly all but disappeared.
She consistently fails in every other aspect of her life that isn't work.
She's extremely capable at her job and clawed her way up the corporate(?) ladder on her own. She has no hobbies. She's extremely lonely but is such a major control freak that she'd rather pay impoverished orphans than try to connect with anyone. She's so rich that she could go anywhere, yet she stays in this shit ass town. Nobody on her social level respects her. She thought it was a great idea to buy a dog wolf hybrid as a pet.
She doesn't watch porn. Her parents withdrew financial support on her birthday. She can't cook and had to eat instant ramen for a majority of her college life. She doesn't eat breakfast and runs on a cocktail of drugs. She wants to be part of a cult sooooo bad for some reason.
I'm pretty sure I've already seen some people redraw that one bladerunner 2049 scene (You look lonely, I can fix that) with their pc and a LI
but I think it would hit the hardest with Avery.
The scene can work for every LI of course, with another close "best" contender being Sydney.
Since Sydney is a pretty lonely person as well. Somewhat isolated due to their parents job and previous position in the church.
But Sydney is also.. for a lack of a better term (and I don't mean this in a bad way) a very palatable person. They are kind, they're sweet. They're likeable.
But Avery. Avery is, out of all the LI's such a fundamentally lonely person and it's her own fault too.
She's quick to anger once you brush past her chivalrous facade and is a generally unpleasant as a person. She's difficult to like at the best of times. Her biggest advantage is that she's rich and makes for an easy income.
ffs her own parents don't care for her. withdrawing their financial support from Avery on her BIRTHDAY!! lol, lmao even.
She doesn't seem to have any hobbies, besides work and abusing orphans. And speaking of orphans, despite Avery being the person with power in the sugar relationship she still is the one regularly getting dumped.
Just... I can't highlight enough how fucking lonely Avery is and she copes with it by paying impoverished, mostly underage orphans, because she doesn't know any other way as a major control freak.
This post turned out way longer than I initally intended.
But yeah this is why I think that scene (in isolation) would hit the hardest with Avery. that bitch is in desperate need of human connection. Unfortunately she constantly sabotages herself in that endeavor. So what better than a human shaped substitute.
Apparently I’m pretty easy to peer pressure /j so here’s the first page or so
The bellboy leads you through the hallways of the hotel, each furnished with plush carpets and paintings that could probably settle Robin's and your debt two times over.
Or maybe not.. you don’t actually know that much about paintings and their market value.
After another flight of fire exit stairs that lead to a marginally more expensive looking hallway, you finally stop in front of a door. It looks more remote than some of the other hotel rooms you passed, after the bellboy squirreled you through one of the back entrances.
He looks a tad nervous as he rings the doorbell.
After a few minutes pass, where you and the bellboy awkwardly stand next to each other, he checks his wrist watch, does a weary double take at you, bows and leaves you to wait by your lonesome.
You covertly glance after him, until he disappears behind a corner, only then do you allow yourself to softly sigh in relief.
You saw the scrutiny in his eyes when he picked you up from one of the back alleys, behind the hotel. Clad as you are, in all black.
You’d rather not have him or anyone else witness your interactions with Avery, no matter how brief.
Another few minutes tick by when finally-
The Lock clicks. You square your shoulders and straighten your back, looking expectantly at the older woman who practically tears the door open, once she presumably checked the peephole..
Avery has a cigar in her mouth, shirt partially unbuttoned, with an unusually dark frown on her face. Looking way more disheveled than you're used to (are those eyebags?). You don’t comment on it, but file it away for examination later.
“Took you long enough” she grumbles around her cigar. “Next time I expect you to be there earlier when I page you.” She looks you up and down, squinting. “Why do you look like a peasant?”
You quietly exhale through your nose “It’s called sportswear-”
She doesn’t let you get another word in. Quickly scanning the hallway behind you, then, pulling you into her room, after she’s seemingly satisfied to not find any witnesses.
You raise an eyebrow, unimpressed. “I would’ve been here earlier, if you had told me beforehand. I had a shift. I couldn’t just leave.” she surprises you again when she doesn’t berate you for your pushback. Instead she impatiently taps her face “Where’s my greeting, Doll?”
You carefully pluck the cigar from her mouth, counting it as a small victory that she lets you. More proof that you aren’t somehow the reason for her shitty mood. Good.
A small reward should be fine.
You slightly bow your head, your other hand moving to cradle her face, as you grace her with a soft kiss to the lips.
You slowly release her, moving back to gouge her reaction. Coquettishly planting the cigar between your lips, once you decide that you’re safe for the moment. Almost smiling. Her eyes follow your movement.
“So, what did you need me for?” you ask, taking a long drag from the cigar. Trying your best to exhale the smoke as seductively as you can.
Honestly extremely funny that my Kylar is a cis girl and Sydney is a trans girl.
Sydney gets do live HER dream AND is potentially able to get Dee pregnant despite being a girl?? UNFAIR!!!!
Kylar throwing a full on temper tantrum, pissing crying like:
IT'S NOT FAIR!! SYDNEY CAN'T KEEP LIVING MY DREAM!! IT SHOULD BE MEEE! IT SHOULD BE MEEEEE!!!!!!111!
didn't want to put my unhinged ramblings in the tags of this person gdfg so I'm screenshotting the post instead, for context.
God, I need this so bad. I want Avery to meet Dee with Sydney in town (or maybe with Whitney/Classmates in the vicinity) and Dee just straight up ignores her. saw her out of the corner of her eye, but does not give any indication that she recognizes or heard her.
(Dee would be really freaked out inside because she knoooowsss how badly Avery is gonna take that and she WILL have to deal with her violent hissy fit later)
Just pushes Sydney along, listening to her talk, while Sydney decides to cling onto her arm now, out of all times, to whisper something into her ear.
While Avery's eyes bore into her back.
Okay i originally put this into the tags, but it got so long that I won't hide it in there anymore dfgfdgdf
Avery fucks her into the backseat the next day (for way longer than a senior citizen should be able to)
Hissing into Dee's ear; to ask if she had fun playing house with that brat and "how dare some broke alley trash” ignore her after everything she has done for her.
“Apparently still good enough for you to nut in repeatedly” Dee manages to grind out.
A remark that Avery definitely would reward with a swift punch to the face if Dee hadn't expected it. blocking and then pinning the older woman's hands instead.
They have very heated hate sex for the next hour until Dee finally fucks the anger out of her
She's extremely clawed up the next day. Covered in bite-marks, claw marks, hickeys and very very sore all over
