I feel like im not able to get the all the gallery pics for each route, i only have 1 pic for mark route and 1 for lars route. Ive played each route like 5 times with different decisions but i cant get it.
Darn, I really haven't been paying attention, had thought Logan would have been one of the new routes as of last time I played/read..., but I already choose somefuzzy, so will continue on that path regardless!
the guide says lars' like thingy should be at 101 by the end of day 8, but i'm always off by 1 point. the "what are you doing with your phone" line doesn't give me the 1 point; is this an in-game bug or an error in the spreadsheet?
oHhhh, sorry for not answering, I tested the guide and well it seems that in the "Dialogue: what are you doing with your phone?" does not give you the 1 point to reach 101 points, I'm not sure if some previous answers affect this but maybe is a bug, anyways, as long as you reach 100 like points and 10 love points its ok, hope I helped ;).
Probably a stupid question but when is Gilbert's first episode supposed to be added I thought that was supposed to be next unless Lars day 9 is coming up first
Gil should only touch the people he likes. I don't understand why Gil doesn't like Parker and still touches Parker. Lars and Gil used to be lovers. Gil should not like Parker.
Gil began to touch Parker very early, at least four or five years ago, but Gil later became a couple with Lars. After Lars and Gil broke up and Parker came to haywell, Gil began to touch Parker again.I think Gil has no reason to touch Parker again. After Parker expressed disgust, he should stop his behavior, but Gil didn't. I think Gil may be a little disrespectful to Parker.
And don't forget Gil asked Parker to stop his bad behavior, but Gil still touched Parker and made some sexy jokes.
Can someone answer this question? ☆*:.｡.o(≧▽≦)o.｡.:*☆
Every character falls into some classic love trope. In the nicest way, Gil is a playful man who falls into the "I'm not afraid to show my affection out loud" type of guy, which I'm guessing you know already.
If I'm not mistaken, Parker helped with the divorce papers, and Parker and Gil used to be a thing(?). (Parker was the first main storyline I did and don't remember much of it, correct me if I'm wrong. I started like a week ago :P.) With Gil's playful and touchy nature, it wouldn't be out far from the possibility that this is his way of thanking him?
I understand the argument with Parker said stop and Gil's not stopping, but maybe that's the reason for that idk.
Wait! Parker helped with the divorce papers, and Parker and Gil used to be a thing？Is there such a story in the game? Why do I have no memory at all.
Lars × Gil, Mark × Anders, They explicitly mentioned that they used to be lovers. But Parker didn't mention that he had any love experience, he seemed to be the isolated one. In Day7, Gil told Walter that he and Lars used to be lovers and did not mention Parker. From Gil Episode, Gil was not ready to start a love relationship at that time. I don't think Gil and Parker used to be lovers.
Parker doesn't think this is a way to express gratitude. Since Parker feels disgusted, Gil should stop. Lars is the person you love, not me. I have no reason to let you touch me so ambiguously.
Thinking about it again, I'm probably wrong about the divorce papers. I could've sworn I remember during Parker's story that Gil and Parker were together at one point, saying something along the lines of because they were together, Parker would watch Gil's inappropriate actions and Gil would watch over Parker's diet. I'm going to redo Parker's story and report back.
Edit: I skimmed through it and I was wrong about the papers and them being together. whoopsie
With you saying that Gil only mentioned that he dated Lars, that could just be because the three were together at the time. He didn't need to mention Parker.
Do I think Gil should stop teasing Parker? Yes. But why would Gil continue to tease Lars if they have broken up? On the other hand, even if Parker and Gil never had a relationship together, with Gil's inappropriate nature he would sure tease everyone. I also find it weird how when Walter said to stop Gil stops but with Parker he doesn't so yea.
Yes, so it's all strange. I don't think Gil should touch Parker. The person you love is Lars, not me, even if you have touched me before.
When Walter was surprised that Gil had never touched Parker, Parker's answer was very unnatural. He summarized the reason as Gil's strong hormone secretion, which seemed like a lie. But from Gil episode, we can know that Gil used to be a pure person, which is a little contradictory.
Why did Parker interfere in the thing between "Lars × Gil" couple? Parker is just a friend. It's none of Parker's business. I think even the best friends should not intervene in the affairs of couple. This should be left to the couple to solve by themselves. I don't think Parker is a good man who has no brain to help others. Gil asked Parker to stop him while dating Lars, which was too strange. It seems too hasty to conclude that Parker is a good man and a good friend. It will appear that Parker is a flat character.
From how I see it, Gil at least knows when to back off when he's in a relationship. But when the relationship is broken up, he goes back to his inappropriate actions. Gil isn't the most "clingy" type so I don't see him going back to teasing Lars. It just doesn't feel right to tease your ex in front of people who know about your broken up relationship. Heck, even touching your ex is weird enough.
I can't touch on Gil's episode as I have never done it before, but if you take everything you said at face value, Gil had never touched Parker. Unless this conversation was past day 8, I don't recall them having this talk.
This all sounds new to me, so I'm going to interpret what you said. Even though I like Parker, he's the most normal to me, I'm not going to argue that he's not a flat character as I also think he doesn't bring much, yet. But I don't get what you mean by 'Gil asked Parker to stop him while dating Lars'. Are you saying that Gil told Parker to end their relationship?
Lars and Gil used to be a thing, not Parker and Gil. Parker does have some mysterious papers from his previous job he doesn't want Walter to see, but there hasn't been any hint that they have anything to do with divorce and may have nothing to do with Gil.
Why doesn't Gil touch Lars? Even though they have broken up. But when Parker doesn't like Gil's behavior, Gil should stop, but Gil doesn't stop. This is out of respect for Parker. What's more outrageous is that Gil asked Parker to manage his bad behaviors, but Gil did these behaviors to Parker.
When is the next update coming? if there is a specific date at least? ik that the last update was really not that long ago but i really like this visual novel, by far probably one of my favorite tbh! It has so much depth in it or for me atleast! i really can't wait for the next update either! If i had the power to control time i would go forward just to be able to read it then go back in time and wait! Keep up the great work i love it! ☆*:.｡.o(≧▽≦)o.｡.:*☆
I guess if you chose a certain option, there will be a notice that will appear on the upper left of the screen. Such notice will be like for example, Lars like increases. Something like that.
Sorry, hook sentence. He’s not actually dead. Well, as far as we know…
Before I go any further I just want to say that I've only read the routes of GIl, Lars, and Parker. And have skimmed through the episodes of Gil, Lars (special too), and Mark. Meaning I do not have all of the necessary information of the story, so please correct me if any of the assumptions I have made are wrong (they probably are).
The reason I bring up the idea of Herbert's death is because of the insinuations that he is in fact dead. He’s not ever physically seen besides in flashbacks, and has not talked to Walter directly (besides Herbert saying he’s busy over the phone to Walter when his dad called Walter). Also Walter's dad said that Herbert is dead but then quickly said he was joking. Apparently it’s an inside joke they have going on but I believe there’s more to it (although I may be looking too deep).
Walter could have accidentally killed Herbert in the so-called “Incident” we know of but I believe this isn’t too accurate as to the fact that everybody in his life is acting far too casually. Unless everyone is just VERY dedicated to not let Walter know anything. Herbert is most likely alive and just has a distant relationship with Walter but the MASSIVE amount of information in Lars day 9 tells me that they have more than just a distant relationship. I obviously won't get into it because it’s Patreon only content as of right now, but boy was I ASTRONOMICALLY SHOCKED when I read the update. There is also the fact that Walter and Herbert could be the same person or possibly got switched? But that's really unclear. It still seems like a pretty valid question to ask, especially since they are identical twins.
Of course there's other big questions such as,
“Why are people coming after Walter?”
“What does Walter’s pendant mean?”
“Why are family names such as Learnard and McGrath so important”
“Why are strangers like Tora and Andrew so WEIRD???”
“What’s up with the house that Lars squatted by?”
“Did Gil and Walter’s dad (Edgar) have sex?!?!?!”
“Why is everyone so damn inconspicuous?!”
“AND WHY THE HELL WALTER DOESN’T QUESTION ANY OF IT?!?!?!?!”
Sorry, that was a lot of questions. And hopefully they will be answered in due time BECAUSE THEY KEEP ME UP AT NIGHT. But all in all I believe that the question of the “Incident” and Walters relationship with Herbert is the most important.
Anyways, if you’re still here, thanks.
Also, any and all comments building upon the fascinating lore of AFCL would be appreciated!
Gil and Parker also have many doubts about their relationship:
Why does Parker declare that he and Gil are best friends without considering the relationship between Lars and Gil?
Why does Parker look a little depressed when he says that his relationship with Gil is not as close as Lars × Gil?
Why did Parker tell Gil not to manage his diet and fitness, but Parker insisted on managing Gil's sexual behavior?
Why should Parker get involved in the private life of the ＂Lars × Gil＂lovers？
Why does Parker want to go over and see what Gil is doing when he knows that Lars and Gil live together?
Why did Gil say that Parker was trying to prevent himself from making the same wrong decision? What wrong decisions did Gil make before? What was the wrong decision?
Jealousy? The game story doesn't seem to directly reflect Parker's jealousy. In fact, In Lars Day4, Parker will complain to Walter about Gil touch him from time to time.I think interfering in the private life of Lars × Gil couple because of jealousy will cause great contradictions, but their daily relationship doesn't look so bad.
As mentioned in Gil day 7 and shown in Episode Anders, Herbert was Anders' classmate in elementary school in Highwell while Walter was homeschooled, and they met again in high school. He appears in Episode Anders. Edgar asking Walter if he wanted to talk to Herbert wouldn't make sense if he was dead.
The twin switch idea is weird. Yeah in Parker's route there's that dream, and Gil thinks Herbert got sick more often when Walter remembers the opposite. But that seems to contradict Parker having fond memories of himself Gil and Lars taking care of one of the kids in the friend group who got sick often, which can't be Herbert since Gil only met him once or twice. And Walter having a dream memory about the rice ball story in Parker's route also goes against the switch idea to me. If they switched, he wouldn't have the real Walter's memories. Lars and Parker both say Walter hasn't changed at all, and Herbert is said and shown to have an opposite personality. If they switched, would he really be able to act exactly like Walter?
As I said before, Herbert is most likely alive with a distant relationship with Walter. But if you’ve read Lars day 9 there is a heap of information that can definitely lead to a lot more conclusions about their relationship and the possible “Incident”. I definitely believe that Herbert was involved in said incident because of the information in Lars day 9. I believe that the “Incident” could’ve been a mistake that Walter made because of the constant guilt he feels in his flashbacks (although he might just feel guilty for no reason).
I’m just mostly questioning why they are distant and if it relates to the “Incident”.
Maybe the real Walter is dead and Herbet took his place. :(
To get back to your Therory: Reminds me of Persona 5 Royal Sumire Yoshizawa. Walter's Action in his Childhood cause his Twinbrother death, deleloping sort of schizophrenia or divided personality as defense mechanism. This would be the easiest explanation for Walter being joyful, clumsy, forgetful most of the time just to switch into boiled up super aggression + don't-care-about-people-and-consequenzes when being triggerd by a bully or Mark's careless jokes.
In someone route Day7, When Parker knew that Lars and Gil lived together, Parker wanted to go and see what Gil was doing. When Lars and Gil broke up, Gil said Parker was trying to prevent him from making the same wrong decision.
I don't understand, Parker is just a friend. Why should he interfere with the couple's affairs? Is he too nosy to do so?It's none of Parker's business.But it's too simple to explain the reason as Parker's honest and good man. I don't think Andy would design such a simple character.
Has Parker ever been in love? He looks a little pathetic, and he is the oldest of all.
Four of the five characters explicitly mentioned having had a love experience. Lars and Gil, mark and Anders, only parker didn't. he seems to be the one who is isolated.
I wonder if Parker has ever been in love？Who is the person he once loved? Walter？ Or does Parker have no love experience?
Isn't Gil's friendship with Parker a little strange? Gil manages Parker's diet and fitness, and Parker manages Gil's indecent behavior. In addition, they seem to have some other transactions. Will ordinary friends do this? Lars and Parker are more like ordinary friends.
Parker said that his relationship with Gil was not as close as Lars. So why doesn't Gil let Lars manage his some behaviors? Have there been some stories between Gil and Parker? I feel that the friendship between Gil and Parker is not normal.
there's also the unfairness of their arrangement where Parker refuses to let Gil uphold his end of the bargain. yeah Gil asked him to but in exchange for getting Parker to watch his weight, which Parker won't let him do. so Parker gets to eat his cake and cockblock Gil too.
Gil says the arrangement is his own fault, starts to say why saying "i..." then he hesitates and walter questions him, then he says "lars and i" dated. i think that's a deflection and the real reason is something else. then he says Parker is there to stop him from making the same bad decision. he could just be referring to getting back with Lars, but i'm connecting it to what Liz overheard about Parker's mistake he doesn't want anyone else to make. the only thing we see him go out of his way to stop people from doing is sexual advances, and elsewhere it's said Gil is a bad influence on Parker. so maybe Gil feels guilty for whatever Parker's mistake was
Lars and Gil used to be lovers, which is a fact. But why did Parker interfere in the thing between Lars and Gil?I think Parker is just a friend. It's none of Parker's business.
Similarly, Parker refused Gil to insist on his deal, probably because Parker thought they were just friends, and the relationship was not close enough to interfere with each other's things.
Why should Gil feel guilty about Parker?Why does Parker look a little depressed when Parker says that his relationship with Gil is not as close as Lars?
Parker didn't refuse the deal though, he agreed to it but is just having it be one sided even though it's supposed to be transactional. the agreement is even mentioned in other routes. Parker has no problem interfering with Gil's sex life, but won't let Gil help him watch his weight which is what cockblocking Gil was supposed to be in exchange for.
I think is because Lars is really expontaneous, and you never know if youll see him once per month or everyday, since he is homeless. So that absence and variavility is what makes Gil decide to let Parker do that, and not Lars. Plus, Parker seems a lot more organize and determined to control Gil, Lars probably would forgot that his task is to control Gil emotions and behavour.
And, Parker its nowadays a has a lot more presence in Gils life since they teach in the same university. So it would be more easy to check on each other.
I don't think Gil and Parker are close enough to take care of each other's things. This deal seems to be Gil's unilateral request. Parker said Gil could ignore his diet and fitness. It seems that Parker doesn't want to fulfill this deal.
Gil describes it as an exchange. Parker is more than happy to stop gil. Remember how he wanted to stop gil and lars on Parker day 7? He mistakenly thought they were fucking in the restroom bc tora (sarcastically?) said it sounded like they were having fun, when in actuality lars was vomiting. Liz stopped him and told walter about the cockblocking bc she was concerned.
If you go to the hot springs with Parker on lars day 8 and don't play along with Tora, Parker instinctively bonks Tora because it reminded him of gil, and he talks about how he stops gil when he does stuff like this because gil asked him to.
And there's all the times Parker lectures Gil. And Gil saying he's still a virgin because of Parker.
In Anders route lars knows about the deal and thinks it's unnecessary.
These and Gil's explanation wouldn't make any sense if Parker had rejected the arrangement and wasn't trying to stop gil. He just wants it to be one sided bc he doesn't want to diet
First of all, thank you for your patient explanation. As for whether Gil is a virgin, I don't think he is. In Lars Episode, the CG shows how close Lars and Gil are, which makes it hard to believe that he is still a virgin. Gil said he was a virgin, maybe just joking.
I don't understand why Parker should do these things, even if Gil asked him to do so. How Lars and Gil get along, It's none of Parker's business.
Four of the five characters mentioned having had a love experience. Lars and Gil，Mark and Anders. So has Parker ever been in love? Does this mean that Parker is the only character who has no love experience?
Yes, he is the oldest of the group. He is 30 years old. Parker is mysterious.
At present, there are too few clues about Parker, and there is almost no information about Parker in the other four episodes. We can't know Parker's past.
I don't think Gil and Parker have that kind of relationship. Parker once said that his relationship with Gil was not as close as Lars × Gil.Lars and Gil, mark and Anders, explicitly mentioned that they had been in love. Only Parker didn't. He seemed to be the one alone.I think it might be Parker × Walter.
I wonder if Parker has ever been in love? Who is the person he once loved? Walter？ Or does Parker have no love experience?

We call that Twincest & that is not happening-
Lol, but not if your playing as a different character
Why not ? : (
why is andeh datable now
Darn, I really haven't been paying attention, had thought Logan would have been one of the new routes as of last time I played/read..., but I already choose somefuzzy, so will continue on that path regardless!
The new update for Parker day 9 is out?

Probably low on RAM
the guide says lars' like thingy should be at 101 by the end of day 8, but i'm always off by 1 point. the "what are you doing with your phone" line doesn't give me the 1 point; is this an in-game bug or an error in the spreadsheet?
... there is a GUIDE?! WHERE? OMG!, also, sorry but I want lars to love 101 points pls haha
sorry for the late response. here! https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1opecc1Wkh4iUxIYTlF0c5NtbbmmQ_30fIH2b5JXb...
thank you ;))
did you get the 101 points in the end?
oHhhh, sorry for not answering, I tested the guide and well it seems that in the "Dialogue: what are you doing with your phone?" does not give you the 1 point to reach 101 points, I'm not sure if some previous answers affect this but maybe is a bug, anyways, as long as you reach 100 like points and 10 love points its ok, hope I helped ;).
When update 😩😔
cuando sale la actualización?
spoiler alert!!!!!!!!
He's Walter, but I feel like there is something off about him
OMG LOVE THE NEW CLOTHES! 😩
Is it just me or does his face look more like Herbert's
No, but he looks like his father more
Herbert + new clothes = Walter with Mark's personalities
also that's not part of public update yet LOL.
Probably a stupid question but when is Gilbert's first episode supposed to be added I thought that was supposed to be next unless Lars day 9 is coming up first
Wait until his Bday, haiya
LOL
I wanna join 👁️👁️
Does anyone know if there will be a Parker update after Lars? I want that bear so badly.
A guy of culture I see... A Parker simp is always a intelectual one!
(Replying to your question: Probably )
Thank you!!
Can anyone send me Samuel's Pic?
Gil should only touch the people he likes. I don't understand why Gil doesn't like Parker and still touches Parker. Lars and Gil used to be lovers. Gil should not like Parker.

Yea that was my bad. Memory served me wrong. Whoops.
Yes, Parker is the isolated character among the five characters. But how can we explain Gil's behavior of touching Parker.
maybe Gil has unrequited feelings for Parker, but not as strong as his feelings for Walter or former feelings for Lars.
Why doesn't Gil touch Lars? Even though they have broken up. But when Parker doesn't like Gil's behavior, Gil should stop, but Gil doesn't stop. This is out of respect for Parker. What's more outrageous is that Gil asked Parker to manage his bad behaviors, but Gil did these behaviors to Parker.

Guys, how do the choice indicators work?
I guess if you chose a certain option, there will be a notice that will appear on the upper left of the screen. Such notice will be like for example, Lars like increases. Something like that.
i see, thanks thats very helpful

Why did Gil say that Parker was trying to prevent himself from making the same wrong decision? What wrong decisions did Gil make before? What was the wrong decision?
I mainly think it's jealousy but the "Wrong decision" thing kinda makes me think theres more to it...
Jealousy? The game story doesn't seem to directly reflect Parker's jealousy. In fact, In Lars Day4, Parker will complain to Walter about Gil touch him from time to time.I think interfering in the private life of Lars × Gil couple because of jealousy will cause great contradictions, but their daily relationship doesn't look so bad.
Then it probably has to do with the "Wrong decision" thing cause if he's not jealous then what else could it possibly be?
Overall it's a very complex confusing situation.
If it's jealousy, why would Parker mind Gil touching him? More importantly, Parker also complained to Walter that Gil touched him.
About this same wrong decision, did Gil do something to hurt Parker before?
As mentioned in Gil day 7 and shown in Episode Anders, Herbert was Anders' classmate in elementary school in Highwell while Walter was homeschooled, and they met again in high school. He appears in Episode Anders. Edgar asking Walter if he wanted to talk to Herbert wouldn't make sense if he was dead.
The twin switch idea is weird. Yeah in Parker's route there's that dream, and Gil thinks Herbert got sick more often when Walter remembers the opposite. But that seems to contradict Parker having fond memories of himself Gil and Lars taking care of one of the kids in the friend group who got sick often, which can't be Herbert since Gil only met him once or twice. And Walter having a dream memory about the rice ball story in Parker's route also goes against the switch idea to me. If they switched, he wouldn't have the real Walter's memories. Lars and Parker both say Walter hasn't changed at all, and Herbert is said and shown to have an opposite personality. If they switched, would he really be able to act exactly like Walter?
As I said before, Herbert is most likely alive with a distant relationship with Walter. But if you’ve read Lars day 9 there is a heap of information that can definitely lead to a lot more conclusions about their relationship and the possible “Incident”. I definitely believe that Herbert was involved in said incident because of the information in Lars day 9. I believe that the “Incident” could’ve been a mistake that Walter made because of the constant guilt he feels in his flashbacks (although he might just feel guilty for no reason).
I’m just mostly questioning why they are distant and if it relates to the “Incident”.
Other than that I believe you’re right.
@Yearnfulys
Maybe the real Walter is dead and Herbet took his place. :(
To get back to your Therory: Reminds me of Persona 5 Royal Sumire Yoshizawa. Walter's Action in his Childhood cause his Twinbrother death, deleloping sort of schizophrenia or divided personality as defense mechanism. This would be the easiest explanation for Walter being joyful, clumsy, forgetful most of the time just to switch into boiled up super aggression + don't-care-about-people-and-consequenzes when being triggerd by a bully or Mark's careless jokes.
Is there a way To Transfer Data To Another Device?
In someone route Day7, When Parker knew that Lars and Gil lived together, Parker wanted to go and see what Gil was doing. When Lars and Gil broke up, Gil said Parker was trying to prevent him from making the same wrong decision.
I don't understand, Parker is just a friend. Why should he interfere with the couple's affairs? Is he too nosy to do so?It's none of Parker's business.But it's too simple to explain the reason as Parker's honest and good man. I don't think Andy would design such a simple character.
Hi! In the new version of the setting language system, there is a problem with Chinese display text, can you fix it?

I known some of you probs seen this but, if u did think of it as a repost ;)
cute
Has Parker ever been in love? He looks a little pathetic, and he is the oldest of all.
Four of the five characters explicitly mentioned having had a love experience. Lars and Gil, mark and Anders, only parker didn't. he seems to be the one who is isolated.
I wonder if Parker has ever been in love？Who is the person he once loved? Walter？ Or does Parker have no love experience?
Woww 💀 the audacity to say hes pathetic but ig thats true lol
I think it's too unfair for Parker. He shouldn't be treated like this.
I want a Mr. Thornton route please. <3
Edgar too. Please.
My god. Edgar is married.
I wish I could pin a comment on itch.io...
Um.... he is our(MC) dad.
Isn't Gil's friendship with Parker a little strange? Gil manages Parker's diet and fitness, and Parker manages Gil's indecent behavior. In addition, they seem to have some other transactions. Will ordinary friends do this? Lars and Parker are more like ordinary friends.
Parker said that his relationship with Gil was not as close as Lars. So why doesn't Gil let Lars manage his some behaviors? Have there been some stories between Gil and Parker? I feel that the friendship between Gil and Parker is not normal.
there's also the unfairness of their arrangement where Parker refuses to let Gil uphold his end of the bargain. yeah Gil asked him to but in exchange for getting Parker to watch his weight, which Parker won't let him do. so Parker gets to eat his cake and cockblock Gil too.
Gil says the arrangement is his own fault, starts to say why saying "i..." then he hesitates and walter questions him, then he says "lars and i" dated. i think that's a deflection and the real reason is something else. then he says Parker is there to stop him from making the same bad decision. he could just be referring to getting back with Lars, but i'm connecting it to what Liz overheard about Parker's mistake he doesn't want anyone else to make. the only thing we see him go out of his way to stop people from doing is sexual advances, and elsewhere it's said Gil is a bad influence on Parker. so maybe Gil feels guilty for whatever Parker's mistake was
Lars and Gil used to be lovers, which is a fact. But why did Parker interfere in the thing between Lars and Gil?I think Parker is just a friend. It's none of Parker's business.
Similarly, Parker refused Gil to insist on his deal, probably because Parker thought they were just friends, and the relationship was not close enough to interfere with each other's things.
Why should Gil feel guilty about Parker?Why does Parker look a little depressed when Parker says that his relationship with Gil is not as close as Lars?
Parker didn't refuse the deal though, he agreed to it but is just having it be one sided even though it's supposed to be transactional. the agreement is even mentioned in other routes. Parker has no problem interfering with Gil's sex life, but won't let Gil help him watch his weight which is what cockblocking Gil was supposed to be in exchange for.
Oh, I don't think Parker has any obligation to interfere with Gil's sexual life. He's just a friend. Why did Parker do this?
I think is because Lars is really expontaneous, and you never know if youll see him once per month or everyday, since he is homeless. So that absence and variavility is what makes Gil decide to let Parker do that, and not Lars. Plus, Parker seems a lot more organize and determined to control Gil, Lars probably would forgot that his task is to control Gil emotions and behavour.
And, Parker its nowadays a has a lot more presence in Gils life since they teach in the same university. So it would be more easy to check on each other.
I don't think Gil and Parker are close enough to take care of each other's things. This deal seems to be Gil's unilateral request. Parker said Gil could ignore his diet and fitness. It seems that Parker doesn't want to fulfill this deal.
Gil describes it as an exchange. Parker is more than happy to stop gil. Remember how he wanted to stop gil and lars on Parker day 7? He mistakenly thought they were fucking in the restroom bc tora (sarcastically?) said it sounded like they were having fun, when in actuality lars was vomiting. Liz stopped him and told walter about the cockblocking bc she was concerned.
If you go to the hot springs with Parker on lars day 8 and don't play along with Tora, Parker instinctively bonks Tora because it reminded him of gil, and he talks about how he stops gil when he does stuff like this because gil asked him to.
And there's all the times Parker lectures Gil. And Gil saying he's still a virgin because of Parker.
In Anders route lars knows about the deal and thinks it's unnecessary.
These and Gil's explanation wouldn't make any sense if Parker had rejected the arrangement and wasn't trying to stop gil. He just wants it to be one sided bc he doesn't want to diet
First of all, thank you for your patient explanation. As for whether Gil is a virgin, I don't think he is. In Lars Episode, the CG shows how close Lars and Gil are, which makes it hard to believe that he is still a virgin. Gil said he was a virgin, maybe just joking.
I don't understand why Parker should do these things, even if Gil asked him to do so. How Lars and Gil get along, It's none of Parker's business.
what is mark's phone password??!
For now, its unknow
Four of the five characters mentioned having had a love experience. Lars and Gil，Mark and Anders. So has Parker ever been in love? Does this mean that Parker is the only character who has no love experience?
I dont think so. He seems to be the older one of the group. But you never know
Yes, he is the oldest of the group. He is 30 years old. Parker is mysterious.
At present, there are too few clues about Parker, and there is almost no information about Parker in the other four episodes. We can't know Parker's past.
Lars and Gil, mark and Anders, explicitly mentioned that they had been in love.Only Parker didn't. he seems to be the one who is isolated.
Nope Gil × Parker, Mark × Anders. And last one Lars × Walter it's the true relationship for me
I don't think Gil and Parker have that kind of relationship. Parker once said that his relationship with Gil was not as close as Lars × Gil.Lars and Gil, mark and Anders, explicitly mentioned that they had been in love. Only Parker didn't. He seemed to be the one alone.I think it might be Parker × Walter.
I wonder if Parker has ever been in love? Who is the person he once loved? Walter？ Or does Parker have no love experience?

這遊戲文本目前也不算大,建議你隨意玩
指南可以等全過後再來補
好的，谢谢！
Its like my 7th rereading of mark's route(that should be obvious that I like mark's route).
What I know is Walter's dare - 2 choices which is take an ugly picture and post it, also where do you like to kiss someone
And for Mark's dare - Naked while playing the whole game, and telling what dream partner is.
And the last of should be Walter asking for Passionate kiss, but I like this one better tho... hehehe...
Did I just misread it before or what?
Update about this tho, I know I'm the only one replying to my own comment but, I think its a 1 time thing or something
Glad I saved it tho, because I don't know what Choices I made upto this point.
