Since we can teleport I vote we throw Victoria through a wall. That's how momentum works, right?

Panzer OK'd me to post these, so here's a couple things that happen at the start of Episode 3 if Kate jumps. Most notably, Max's Facebook wall is full of cartoonishly horrible messages towards her. Like to the point where it's not even believable, IMO:  The other thing I wanted to share is a couple text messages you get. For some reason these messages were the closest I got to being really emotional about this game? I dunno why, it's not like I can really relate to the situation and Kate probably wouldn't break a top five list of my favorite characters but I really liked these texts:   Anyway that's all for now, if I see anything else notably different between this playthrough and mine I'll run it past Panzer and see if it's cool to post.

This text from Kate's dad breaks my heart  Also while I've got it on my mind, the snippet of poetry Max has on her whiteboard for Kate is from The Tyger by William Blake. It's a really gorgeous poem about being ferociously alive, and I'd recommend at least skimming that wikipedia page if you'd like a little insight into why Max chose that piece for her.

Not only that, it seems she might genuinely like Mark Jefferson and that's how she treats him. There's something seriously wrong with Victoria.

oh wow, Victoria is even more of a poo poo than we thought. It's pretty clear any remorse she has for her role in Kate's suicide attempt is feigned because she knows she's SUPPOSED to feel bad. I thought maybe the game would ultimately humanize her, but so far, it's only made her shittiness more apparent. at least Mr. Jefferson turned her down flat. that would've been two character assassinations for the price of one! Dana and Taylor are cool, though.

I read it the opposite way. I think she's fake to Nathan because she's scared of him or using him for popularity or something. She's obviously insecure. Shes got this image and she feels like she has to keep it up.

He was probably completely convinced that it was Kates own fault and assured Victoria that she wasn't to blame. Now she desperately tries to convince herself of that. The only way to do that is to double down on blaming the victim. If she keeps saying this, maybe it will become true in her head.  It's pretty fair to say that she isn't a stone cold bitch who can simply look past all of this and continue as if nothing happened. But she forces herself to try just that.

I could feel a bit of sympathy for Victoria at first and I do understand why she acts the way she does. I also believe she might put on a "fake" act to the outside world and what is written here about her trying to absolve herself of blame. However, any shred of sympathy I might have had for her went down the drain when she still said that to Jefferson after Kate actually died in my playthrough. When I first heard she snuck out I was suprised! Was she that upset? Was she showing remorse? Then I see her saying that to Jefferson. I couldn't help thinking about her actions: "Yeah, it's all about poor you and how hard it is for you... not."

Like on one hand it's cool he'd bend the rules to put in some extra hours and help a student put together a portfolio for college, on the other hand i think once he got there he realized victoria had no intention of giving a poo poo about a portfolio and regretted it instantly. He just sounds so fed up.

Mark had to work very hard to to get to his position at the Blackwell Academy. It's a pretty high-profile job and I bet he had to keep applying a whole lot of times to get there. I know it seems like being featured in magazines and the like is the real top of the hill, but what he's probably really after is the prestige (and the money) that comes with having a famous student. I bet he'd be rich enough that he wouldn't even have to cook for himself anymore. Being in academia - that's the real big leagues. He has a legitimate shot at moving up in the world, and he should take it. Making the right choice could affect him as long as he lives, so he needs to consider every student fairly. I see nothing wrong with that.

No, I can understand where the confusion is coming from here. I thought the same thing until Panzer clarified it to me. When you open David's cupboard and see the TV that has a security feed on it, it's right beside a map of the school with placements for security cameras. Because of this, my mind didn't really clue into what was actually on the TV (a security feed of the Price household) and just assumed he had already set up some secret security cameras at the school.

Jefferson seems pretty much entirely self-interested. I noticed that in the scene in the principal's office, if you don't accuse him immediately, he ends the interview before you get the chance to. Victoria is an interesting one to puzzle out. She's showing so many different faces to different people that you can't get a gauge of who is the real Victoria. She also seems to be looking out entirely for herself; all of the sides she's shown seem to have been about gaining status with someone, except for the paint scene with Max, where she was in dire need of comfort. Whether that was her mask cracking, or just sucking up to the nearest person that could give her sympathy, I couldn't say.

Hello good morning! It's Monday, so  NEW VIDEO Today we're going to commit More Crimes and be a general teen nuisance!Today's poll: closed! Here are the new journal pages:      Also, just as a note: there's a letter on the principal's desk I forgot to check out, and it's related to a minor decision we made earlier in the game. I'm going to look at it at the start of the next video so don't worry, I didn't miss it! Panzer Skank fucked around with this message at 03:49 on Feb 13, 2016 |

Max Caulfield making fun of people who wear red deerstalkers may have been a touch on-the-nose. Using her bullshit time powers to nightcrawler behind a locked door was pretty great, though. I wonder if she doesn't tell Chloe about how it's done because she doesn't want to brag, or because it's cooler if it's mysterious.

So it's looking like we can add homophobia to the list of reasons David is a lovely person, from the way he considers any girl that Chloe is close to a bad influence on her. And if we get to the end without the game confirming that Chloe and Rachel's relationship was romantic, I will eat my loving hat. Also, what the hell is a handicapped fund, anyway? That's probably Wells' booze money. I mean, alcoholism can be considered a handicap, right?

I mean there are handicapped parking spaces at Blackwell, (which Chloe parks in - I guess being a dick to the handicapped is in her DNA or something) so there are probably disabled students. Honestly, considering Mr. Prescott is being an rear end in a top hat and withholding funding because his son had to actually face some goddamn consequences for his awful behaviour, I think the school might actually need that money. Also Max continues to be The Best Teenager  . But what's an IEP? It shows up in her file but it's hidden behind the update card. Is that some American thing?
