when i saw all the possible cgs my mouth went wide when i saw you can get a shirtless Calvin cg?? but i cant get it no matter what! is it just an evil easter egg or actually possible to get? how do you get it? tyy for reading no pressure to answer too 🩷

Assuming MC wants a biological baby or to adopt, how would Calvin deal with the idea? If he didn't see it as advantageous, what excuses would he give us or what kind of solutions would he probably look for to avoid dealing with another life?

And if by some miracle he accepts MC's wish, what kind of father would he be and how would the dynamics of the environment provided for this baby to live in work? Perhaps if Calvin has already developed a trust in MC, he would give us a little more freedom or try to disguise the fact that one of those responsible, him, is keeping us captive? HAHAHA. As far as we've seen, Calvin seems to refuse to acknowledge his red flags, so he might partly influence a distorted view of love for this child because he doesn't see himself as wrong, but I got the impression that he does recognize certain things in his behavior and perhaps tries to disguise them as a father.

You don't have to reply if you don't want to, I definitely don't want to be the reason one of my favorite artists feels uncomfortable hehe, so just so I don't say I commented in vain, congratulations on the art and the game, you can see it was made with a lot of effort and care 🤗❤️ (Sorry for any grammatical errors, English is not my native language.)

Hi, thank you so much for the question!! I was hoping for it, because there’s actually a hint to how he feels about children in the game that I’m not sure many people caught ;)

If you play with a female body, escape the restraints, and check out the computer, MC finds that their birth control was replaced with a placebo, and therefore not effective. In short, MC wanting a child would not be an issue at all.

If MC didn’t want a baby, Calvin would somehow convince them that they do or that it’s somehow good for them. “You’re depressed? Baby bonding will improve your mood.” “Feeling lonely while I’m at work? Babies provide company.” Etc etc, completely not acknowledging the negative impacts that having a baby would have.

Now, obviously Calvin has some egotistical qualities. He believes that he will be a great father, despite him being at work a majority of the time. As a father, he would honestly be quite distant. He would be affectionate when he wants to be or when it benefits him, and he would find pride in teaching the child and providing for it intellectually, but they wouldn’t have a typical bond.

So, how would Calvin feel about a mc, thats trans, but not fully transitioned, would he do a DIY surgery? Or maybe allow us to go to a diffrient surgeon?

2. How would he feel about tattos and piercings?

3. If the mc turned out to be the next Mike Tyson (type of gorilla strength that could brake out of chains esoly).. would Calvin even try?

4. How does he feel about unhealthy food? Chips, soda , burgers, ect ect..

•What would be his favorite? Or the most tolerable.

5. AND a qestion for you, how did you think lf this story, did it just pop up in ur mind or a dream or have you planed it?

Have a great day or night, i hope you see this. Sorry if this is too mutch...

3 hoorays for you! Hip hip Hooray ! hip hip hooray ! Hip hip hooray! 🥳

Hi! Thank you so much for the questions!

1. He wouldn’t really care or view MC any differently. He would view it from a completely medical standpoint. He never really understood the social norm of correlating biological sex with gender identity. Anyways, if MC wanted surgery, he would most definitely want to perform it himself and feel confident enough to do so. He did study to be a surgeon, after all. However, he would likely want to practice more beforehand, so he may bring someone down to the basement to practice on them first.

2. He doesn’t really indulge in any sort of self-expression himself, but he may be intrigued if MC expressed themselves with things like piercings, tattoos, hair, clothing, etc. He’d definitely appreciate it if there was meaning behind the tattoos rather than just aesthetic appeal, but he’d be curious either way.

3. The “good” (in his perspective) thing about muscle is that it decreases with inactivity, so all he would have to do is let the medication he prescribed MC do its work. Remember how, at the beginning of the game, MC notes how the medicine they got for their anxiety made them feel weak and tired? That’s not coincidental.

4. He really enjoys cooking and finding new ways to make healthy, nutritious meals. Those foods feel like a betrayal of everything he believes in (pardon the dramatics). However, burgers aren’t inherently unhealthy, so he could find a way to enjoy one.

Calvin is definitely the type to get jealous, but not in the conventional sense. Flirting and physical contact wouldn’t irritate him as much as others physically or mentally caring for MC would. For example, he may get jealous if another doctor or nurse draws their blood. It would likely go something like this:

Also, is he genuinely in love with the MC despite everything that happened? Why did he murder them, and would you personally classify him as a yandere, or is that left open to interpretation?

Another thing I’ve been wondering: what if the MC were a doctor too, maybe even a surgeon? What kind of surgeon does Calvin want to become himself?

And lastly, how would Calvin treat a softer, gentle, soft-spoken MC? Could you ever see him letting the MC go, and what are his thoughts on marriage? Would he actually “wife up” the MC if given the chance?

Thank you so much for reading ! And so sorry if this was too long (*´∀`)♪

These are such good questions!

calvin’s main “love language” is caretaking, but he will adapt to the other person. if physical touch or reassurance is important to them, he’ll accommodate it, but it doesn’t come naturally to him.

he’s not very openly affectionate, but he’s still human. he does need affection, he’s just very restrained and intentional about it. he may also use affection as positive reinforcement.

as for whether he’s actually in love…he definitely believes he is, but his version of love is very self-centered. he cares, but not in a selfless way. it’s more so about feeling needed and maintaining control.

when he kills the mc in certain endings, he genuinely frames it as a form of mercy or like it’s “good” for them. he can’t fully accept that he’s the reason they’re suffering, so in his mind, there’s something wrong that he can’t fix so he decides to end their suffering. subconsciously, he’s a little relieved.

whether or not he counts as a yandere is kind of up to interpretation. he’d kill for the mc, but it’s not his first instinct, and honestly, he’d find the aftermath more inconvenient than anything.

if the mc were also a doctor, he’d have mixed feelings. he’d appreciate the shared interest, but he wouldn’t feel as needed, which is something he relies on. he’d be less likely to target someone like that in the first place.

he originally wanted to be a surgeon, especially something like neurosurgery, but chose primary care instead. he prefers the long-term, controlled relationship between doctor and patient.

a softer, more gentle mc would probably be his favorite. he responds well to compliance, especially if it comes with gratitude.

and no, he wouldn’t let them go. even if there’s nothing physically wrong, he’d find a reason to justify keeping them there.

Yes, ofc!! Fun (and random) facts about Dr. Calvin Mercer:

— he dislikes small talk unless there’s a purpose for it, but he’ll still ask things like “how are you?” if it helps him gain more information about the person

— he’s very intelligent, but he didn’t always excel in school. if he didn’t see a practical use for something, he just wouldn’t care enough to try.

— he wakes up at the same time every morning, even on his days off.

— he can be extremely hypocritical. he’ll criticize something for being “unhealthy” or “unsafe” and then turn around and justify it when he does it. he’ll also do things like scold mc for not eating, but then take away their food if they do something that upsets him.

— he actually likes narrative-based video games. he finds them interesting, he just doesn’t allow himself to play them because he sees them as a waste of time.

— he used to be labeled as a bully as a kid for being too blunt. he learned how to mask it, but it never really went away.
