1. flambae is canonically gay????????????????
2. i thought sonar had the stapler in his gym locker becuase it was something he was into. as we all know there were handcuffs in the gym…
1. Yeah, and I’ll admit I only found this out a bit after the game was fully released. Like, I haven’t done or seen all the possible routes, but I know there are some dialogue lines that hint at it, even though (again, I haven’t seen everything) technically he never straight-up says he’s gay.* But, I believe the most solid confirmation comes from Polly Raguimov, the game’s narrative designer.
*UPDATE: I was wrong. This other post gives way more context than I did when I first wrote this, so check it out pls.
2. Also, I gotta say I LOVE how “small” stuff like Sonar’s stapler incident is turning into fuel for silly theories. My take is: I don’t really think there was anything inside the stapler, but I do like to imagine there was, just for fun (!!!). If I had to bet, I’d say it was some illegal substance or smth, or maybe a crypto wallet password (no idea how that even works, btw).
As for the handcuffs, I honestly hadn’t thought much about it until now, but I’m guessing Coupé already had them and used them back then to restrain Sonar. Idk.
