#f wesley

Oh um. 🫣

Vincent and Alex have definitely met both of them, and they were already so wary of Wesley's parents at this point that knowing MC has befriended their kid complicated things very quickly. I won't say how, or why, but that wariness never disappeared for Vincent, while Alex just ended up growing angrier over the years. (You'll find out more about this in the future.) For now, I'll just say that Alex never liked that kid from the start </3 and oh. he first interacted with them during a particular family dinner so. oops.

Now, Richard, on the other hand — Richard isn't exactly the most polite/friendliest person around in the first place, but the circumstances in which he met MC and Wesley, as well as having to explain something to Vincent, were less than ideal and made things a little more, um, difficult for everyone to deal with, but this is an even bigger spoiler so I can't talk much about it, except perhaps for the fact that Vincent and Richard are not the type of people who'd ever get along with one another for so many reasons (some of them involving MC and the roles they all play in what's currently happening).

Firstly bc they’re both like that and the dynamic fascinates me and secondly bc poor Richard gets stuck as a third wheel between these two twenty somethings

Oh Richard is sooo tired LMFAOOO. And I love that you mentioned that because yes, their dynamic stays that way, and they both stay that way, so I am curious! how you'll react to a certain flashback scene 🫣 because they are both unhinged <3 and I love them for it!!

morning person: Jade, Alex

night owl: Wesley, Richard

I just know for an MC and Wesley that dated before that MC got the biggest lecture of their life lol

She wouldn't like any of them at one point or another for various reasons 😔

Alonzo: there's a begrudging respect present here but yikes this might not be a great idea because [redacted]. Would doubt their intentions because of what this could mean for her child.

Wesley: We all know what she thinks of them <3 and it's nothing good. Also, about MC and Wesley possibly dating before... LMFAO you'll find out in-game.

Owen: would get the best reaction among these, until she discovers something else about him, of course.

I wanted to ask how Vincent feels about MC getting together with each of the ROs? Does his opinion of them dating Finn/Faye change alot pre and post betrayal if that was the situation?

Oh dear. Honestly, Vincent would not like most of them, though he might be a little better than Alex at hiding it (not that Alex would ever make an effort to hide any of his visceral reactions)

Alonzo: The relationship he'd be against the most. Mostly because of Vincent's job. And Alonzo's job. And um, the things MC may or may not have inadvertently done to earn Alonzo's ire. Vincent would believe there'd be nothing good to come out of this. He'd be afraid for his godchild, and he'd beg them to reconsider. A lot.

Wesley: This is a little more complicated for him. He never liked Wesley's parents, but Wesley was one of MC's very few friends and the two found comfort within each other since they were teenagers. He respected that and kept his own doubts to himself because he wanted MC to form good connections outside of their own family as well. That was before the betrayal, of course. Now he'd just openly warn them about the possibility of this becoming another clusterfuck, though he won't be too persistent about it (Alex is already there to do that for the both of them lol). The idea would never stop making him uncomfortable, however, and some of the reasons (aside from the betrayal itself) are too spoilery to say here. And if another betrayal like this happens again... Wesley better run 🫣

Owen: I think in this case, he'd warn Owen instead 😔 He loves his godchild and wants them to pursue relationships outside of their job, but MC's entire family is a complete mess, and he'd think Owen would at least deserve a warning. Also a little worried about how curious/inquisitive Owen could be. Might put them all in danger, eventually.

Jade: Very, very bad idea. He won't say it, though. He'd just observe.

Maybe for Wesley there could be no exceptions 👀 jk <3

Also how would the romance progress between Jade and MC who was previously in a relationship with Wesley and is still in love with them?

Jade is very cautious. She knows that MC and Wesley had a bond that would be difficult for both to ignore, and she'll understand that sometimes you have to give the person you like some space and time to deal with fallouts they may have experienced, but it's also not a factor she'd want to stay hanging over her own relationship with MC (temporarily, sure, but if it keeps happening.....). It's not about jealousy; it's the fact that she has other problems of her own, her own life to manage, and considering MC already comes from a place of privilege, the added drama would just be too exhausting if MC fails to decide whom they really want to pursue, or what they want to do.

Yes, this is part of the Wesley text convos. Yes, they used to be cringe as teenagers. Yes, they're both still losers.
