**spoilers**

🐊Loved the new content by the way...Sal remains on his throne with his ability to speak to Dave without upsetting him🐊


Rant incoming...may contain a hot take

I don’t know if what I just typed is a question or a “my thoughts” type of deal...but the turns have tabled










I played all three new routes....and something’s bothering me....so, as we all know, Dean likes Dave, right? And naturally, I started with his route...learned his story about his ex, and then Dave dropped the big question of “are we dating?” (Instant booty-pucker moment) And Dean’s response couldn’t sorta baffled me. On one hand, I can understand why the short answer is “I’m working on myself” from Dean...but on the other, I feel like during other routes, no one is being fair to Dave about how he should feel, including Dean himself. In every route, including his own, it seems like Dean is just all over Dave, forever wanting something out of him, sometimes ignoring the simply boundary of “no is no.” Saying that it’s an unfortunate trade-off of Dave “trying to control everyone” by keeping them alive doesn’t seem to cut it because I’m pretty sure anyone there would do something to stop it unless they were in on it. Dean seems way too obsessive, and even Sal said he’s a one-man guy. I feel like Sal is the only one being considerate of Dave well being as opposed to his feelings.  When Dave exploded at Orlando, I fully agreed with everything he said because y’know....can’t argue with facts. And while Orlando’s situation is bad, simply saying “go get your bear” is so ignorant and disregarding of Dave. Sal said that he and Dave slept together and Dean had the nerve to be upset even after the incident. Correct me if I’m wrong but in Sal’s route, Sal sleeps with Dave after seeing the vault activation, which means Sal didn’t need the meds to sleep given Dave’s presence. I feel like Dean should’ve caught on to the fact that Sal didn’t need the medication (regardless of reason) since he always asks for it....but it’s later stated by Sal that Dean was concerned for Dave and had seemingly no regards for Sal. It might be one of those understood things that Dean would be worried about Sal, but it doesn’t add up for Dean to be so callous about [apparent] issues like that.

🐊I apologize for literally always ranting, but I’m glad I’m able to rant because this game had so much depth being a mystery and all...thanks and keep it up!🐊

Thank you! I also felt some of this.

I feel like a lot of the issues here are due to a lack of understanding the subtext in certain interactions.

Remember that the Dean/Dave relationship is something they're both into but neither are really ready for, causing a cascade of issues moving forward. They're into one another but Dean has his thing and Dave is currently sad and stressed to not give it any mind. Considering the sadness, given people want Dave to be happy again, they're assuming encouraging him towards the guy that he has/had an interest in is a good thing. Whether that's right or not is another whole thing.

And remember that Sal and Dean are besties. Any sort of Dave/Sal interaction is already going to cause panic in Dean because of his own mental state.

That's the tip of the iceberg at least.

Ah I understand more now...I wasn’t sure if I was following 100% correctly...sometimes I have this idea where I’m like â€œoh they’re friends so they should know what to do to make him better” without considering the fact that barely anyone knows how to directly and indirectly help Dave. But considering everyone’s backstory, I see how discombobulated that stuff can get...thanks!🐊

Sal is my fourth favorite and I can agree with you there, Sal the gentle giant is very considerate of dave while dean is... somewhat possessive of dave on other routes than gis own, I feel that something might be happening between the characters that we may not know, Because sal said that the others where either fighting or upset with each other because dave is upset as well... Well, we can only dream of what going to happen next on the next update, I'll be waiting for it patiently as always. ^^
