5. RELATIONSHIP GOALS (PART 2)
LORELEI (OPTIONAL) True to form, Lorelei is, once again, by far the most complex and bewildering section of the chapter and the whole game. I think Daphne has a meta-level joke here about Lorelei being an enigma to your character, but because of her incredibly complex scenes, she’s also an enigma to you the player.
This is tough to organize. I’ll give it my best. Any reference to the “ring” means the ring from Dante and Renee’s bathroom in Ch. 3: The Butterfly Effect (which you only encounter on certain runs).
IF YOU DON’T HAVE THE RING If you don’t have the ring and you didn’t meet Lorelei in Ch. 3: The Butterfly Effect, this will be your intro encounter with Lorelei. You’ll chat a bit and maybe have sex.
IF YOU DO HAVE SEX If Lorelei insists on getting Allison’s permission, you’ll text Allison here; she’ll give permission, on the condition that she can fuck Dante.
Pay attention to what Lorelei says when she’s “on her back” (and later, on her side): it’s the most direct clue you’ll get as to what’s ‘going on’ in your run. She might say (or at least hint) that: • You’re the one doing the MC • Addictive sex with you is the cause of the MC • Lorelei herself is doing MC for your benefit (Allison is “being turned into your ideal woman”) • Lorelei herself is doing MC for both your benefit and Dante’s (Allison is “being turned into your ideal woman” and someone else’s, and you have to “share”) • A nefarious “external influence” is causing the MC (i.e. IT’S THE SPACE SNAKE)
IF YOU DO NOT HAVE SEX When you talk about Annie, Lorelei will give you an indication of what is ‘going on’ in your run. She might say (or at least hint) that: • You are the one MCing Annie, or attempting to (and you’ve tried it before on Lorelei (unsuccessfully, because she has her protective ring)!) • Annie is back to her “old self” again (after having been changed somehow to leave you) • If you are going to Dante and Renee’s party (because you rejected Annie), Lorelei will say that both you and Allison are “prey” for Dante and Renee • Annie wasn’t “acting entirely under her own volition when she left”
IF YOU DO HAVE THE RING Boy howdy. My personal favorite stuff in the game here.
If you have the ring, Lorelei will be visibly upset and scared. She will tell you that the ‘missing’ ring is hers, that it is very important, and that she doesn’t dare visit Dante without it (strong implication here that Dante/Renee are trying to MC her, but the ring is protecting her).
PRETEND YOU DON’T HAVE THE RING… You could pretend you don’t have the ring… even if you put it on earlier and are literally wearing it on your finger right now! Lorelei simply will not (cannot) notice it while you’re wearing it. You can just show (fake) empathy, say you’ll keep an eye out for it, and take your leave. This is the ‘neutral’ response that otherwise seems not to affect the game state at all.
…OR INSTEAD, GIVE LORELEI THE RING… You could willingly give Lorelei the ring (you’ll run back to the office to get it if you didn’t put it on earlier). She will be VERY happy about this, and you’ll now have sex (following the “If You Don’t Have the Ring” procedure above).
But in rare runs (I think these have to be “love-spell” aka “apron” runs which are heavy on MC), when you give the ring back (and only if you do it right away), Lorelei will say she owes you a boon now. Holy shit guys, the BOON. • You could hold onto the boon for future use (you won’t use it in this chapter) • You could trade it in to do sex with Lorelei she normally refuses (anal, blowjob on her knees, cum on her face). This seems like a really paltry use of the boon, and she even says so. However, if you get the blowjob on her knees, she will act as your sex-slave for the duration (and then come back to normal at the end). • OOOOOR you can have Lorelei cast a spell on a woman of your choice. This is basically a cheat code: you absolutely max out the MC for one woman, way beyond what you can otherwise do in any other run (at least by this chapter). You only get a choice of a few of the women in any one run (whoever you’ve paid most attention to), but I can confirm that every woman can possibly show up on that list. Lorelei will never cast a spell on herself, though (obviously). Allison, specifically, has a few different ways the boon can be used on her: to turn her into your full slave (if she isn’t already), to make her exclusive to you (go away Dante!), or to give her bigger breasts (otherwise known as BOON BOOBS).
…OR INSTEAD, MC LORELEI This? This right here guys? This is the good stuff.
In certain runs, you could attempt to MC Lorelei. Sometimes, you will immediately get cold feet and back out. Otherwise, you’ll have the option to proceed or back out. If you do back out, in some runs, Lorelei remains unaware of what you just tried to do… but in some runs, she tells you she was aware of what you just tried to do, and she warns it’s a good thing you decided to stop!
If you do proceed, you might go through a bunch of programming option sets (after “Deep breaths”). The idea here (I think) is that your choices reflect what exactly you’re trying to do to her will (empty, drain, conquer, overwhelm, or erase). If you try to get her to call you “Master,” there are degrees of success and failure to that command (which I think indicates how strong your control actually is).
Alternatively, you might immediately mesmerize her (“Everything is going to be O.K.”) and thus skip any programming option sets. She will call you “Master” in this case.
Then you can get a blowjob from and/or fuck her. Huzzah!
Afterwards, you’ll make her believe that she did this with you willingly. From here, you’ve got a few options, though which ones you see depend on your run. • You could just back off and let it be • You could try to “persuade” her to restart your relationship (if she hasn’t already) • You could try to convince her to go to Dante and Renee’s party on Saturday, even though she doesn’t have her protective ring (she will warn that Renee is trying to hypnotize her; if you continue, you will say that Allison will protect her) • You could try to “change her views” and make her your cock-hungry fucktoy • You could try to make her fall in love with you, as in a full-on love-slave • You could try to enslave her outright, making her your obedient servant
Pay careful attention to the text at the end of this sequence. Usually, it will say that you “believe” you’ve emptied/drained/conquered/overwhelmed/erased her will. It will now take some time for the programming to settle. Then, her cat Gremlin will show up and either purr at you… or swipe at you! I think this indicates whether or not your programming worked.
But wait, there’s more. In rare runs (I think you have to be on a “hypnotize” aka “collar” path with heavy MC, don’t do too much MC with other women in this chapter, and you might have to get either Allison or Renee to mention your hypnotic cock), when you are lulling Lorelei into trance, you can tell her to “kneel down” so you can “try an experiment.” You will then successfully dicknotize her with your hypnocock! This, sometimes, is what leads to the best result: once you try to enslave her (or whatever other option), the text will simply state that you did empty/drain/conquer/overwhelm/erase her will, not “believe” that you did. This result also leads to a specific text-image combo at the end of the chapter, either of Lorelei bowing her head and calling you “Master,” or kneeling against a black background and calling you “love.”
BIMBORELEI There is a rare third option beyond “have the ring” and “don’t have the ring”: if you have the ring, have not done any MC yourself, are on a full “sex-obsessed” aka “alley” run, saw Lorelei in Ch. 3: The Butterfly Effect, and you asked her to find out if Allison is having an affair, Lorelei will basically jump you for sex and act like either a fully objectified fuckdoll or a giggly, airheaded bimbo! I have named her Bimborelei.
I think the story here is: because you asked, Lorelei went to ask Dante if he was having an affair with Allison, but she didn’t realize she didn’t have her protective ring. Dante and/or Renee thus successfully MC’d Lorelei, presumably having failed many times before because of her ring. They turn her into this.
This is fun, but be careful: at the end, Bimborelei will tell you (command you?) to do the same to Allison and Annie; I think the idea is that Dante/Renee (via Bimborelei via you) is trying to MC them both into this, too.
NOTE: Threading some of this together, I believe that each of the three original Annie images (collar, apron, alley) has a kind of “special” result with Lorelei that is hard to access. Collar = fully enslaved (dicknotized) Lorelei; apron = boon; alley = Bimborelei. To access the special result, make all your decisions consistent with being (respectively) an evil hypnotist, a love-spellcaster, or a complete horndog (and make sure you get the ring!).
END OF THE WORKDAY AT THE OFFICE (MANDATORY) Back at your work desk, you’ll get some texts; you always get one from Allison (which indicates her headspace), and you might get some more depending on your run.
If you left the ring at your desk all day, you will now say that you felt like it was “unwise, even dangerous” to give it to Lorelei.
If Renee is MCing you, you will get hard reading her text (there are degrees of this: “start to,” “instantly,” etc).
If Emma is falling in love with you (either via flirting or MC), she will leave some sweet notes for you here.
If Emma is pissed off at you because you asked her out to dinner (and she’s not into you), you’ll have an email from HR! Oh no! You’ll have a meeting for Monday at 9am, which is everyone’s favorite time to have a meeting with HR. Specifically, the meeting will be with “Marianne,” who I assume will be a character in future chapters.
EMMA AT THE OFFICE (OPTIONAL) In certain runs (generally, if you don’t do too much MC to other women in this chapter), you will approach Emma and MC her.
If you used Lorelei’s boon on Emma, she’ll be madly in love with you and profusely apologize for complaining to HR.
Otherwise, if you have an HR problem, you’ll immediately MC her to remove the complaint.
If you don’t have an HR problem, Emma will be happy to see you, but then you MC her anyway. I believe in this permutation, you also give Emma Renee’s hypnotherapy business card and order her to make an appointment. (Basically, you’re teeing Emma up to get MC’d by Renee; I think you only get this permutation if Renee is MCing you.)
You’ll usually have fun options here: make her send you a nude selfie or flash her tits at you.
In certain runs, you’ll be able to turn her into your love-slave.
In certain runs (do very little MC to other women in this chapter), you’ll be able to order her to give you a blowjob in the supply closet; this is where you can go in a more mind-slave (vs love-slave) direction. Plus, you get a blowjob.
LEAVING THE OFFICE (OPTIONAL) If Emma is super into you (via flirting or MC), she will happily flash her tits at you before you leave.
If Emma isn’t super into you but you’ve MC’d her to do it, she will unhappily flash her tits at you before you leave.
TEXT AT YOUR FRONT DOOR (MANDATORY) In all runs, this is where Ch. 5: Relationship Goals will end. On your way home, you will receive one or more texts. Who texts you, and what they say, depends on everything that’s happened previously.
If Renee is MCing you, you will get hard reading her text (there are degrees of this: “start to,” “instantly,” etc).
