I came across a list of potential LGBT+ characters in the games and I have to admit that I was a tiny bit disappointed that the only ace character listed was a villain.  So, here are some of my aro/ace (and other queer) headcanons.

Ryan – aroace (all you need is dragons)

Renate – aroace (all you need is cake)

Mel – aroace spectrum (like Wednesday Addams)

Lupe – aroace

Donal – aroace

Jeff – aroace (or queer in some way)

Nigel – aroace

Mason – ace.  But not aro.  The reason I think Mason is ace and planning to adopt is because he asks his dates what their gender preferences are for kids, and the only way you can choose which gender your kids are is if you adopt.  (More queer autistic rep in media would be awesome.)

Yumi – I could see her being queer in some way.  Her grandma thinks she’s going through a “phase” and will return to tradition.  I think I’m leaning towards her being biromantic ace.  (Also childfree, no adoption either.  So no kids to pass on the tradition to of running the ryokan.)  Article I came across.

Harper – lesbian ace

Ingrid – lesbian

Joy – possibly also lesbian

For maybe a decade I kind of forgot about the Nancy Drew games since the controversies and changes left me pretty disheartened. And I thought that rewatching the games would just make me sad, knowing there'd never be another game like SCK-SEA again. However. I unexpectedly got motivated to rewatch the games this past month. And, wow, I had a lot more fun with it than I was expecting. This was my first time watching walkthroughs as opposed to playing them myself. And it was a nice change of pace. Really gave me a chance to just absorb all the info and freed up my mind to focus on certain things.

Anyways, I might try to post some of my observations and opinions if I can find a way to organize my thoughts in a coherent manner.  For now, here’s some random character info.

-Minette is ambidextrous.  She does not have a consistent favourite colour.

-Lupe is vegetarian.  (Or at least, she ate vegetarian at the lodge.)

-Prof. H is a Scorpio.  Her favourite colour is purple.

-Renata has chicken-scented markers.  (Prof. H should get some of those.)

-Em G. watched the Titanic movie.

-Red Knot is a type of bird.  (Just an alias!?)

-Abby and Dieter have guitars.

-Nancy carries a pencil, not a pen.  5’7” is her height.

-Nigel has a pet chinchilla.

-Clara’s middle name is Olivia.

-Alexei writes in all capitals.  (Also, Chase has really nice penmanship.)
