It's heavily implied that he's still a teenager
Still shipping him with Garst is morally incest if they see each other as Uncle and nephew, it's not legally incest but morally incest, doesn't help that he can still be mistaken for a kid, I'm glad the dev didn't go that direction, overall his love for his uncle (likely some sort of stockholm syndrome) it made the story so much more interesting and creepy
IF there was a route where the mc fell in love with the nephew the age wouldn't be concerning since there's no mc age confirmed (and no grooming), it'd be horrible if it were his uncle, Garst clearly see him as his nephew, so he didn't groom his nephew since he has no feelings for his nephew other than obviously platonic BUT being and feeling like Elliot's only lifeline and abused etc its a type of stockholm syndrome, it's disgusting to even see them together let alone say something like a polyamorous relationship
I'm not curious to see grooming, wtf 🤡 I want to learn more about their interactions NOW THAT HE'S AN ADULT, because I don't remember them even talking to each other directly in the game.
No, it's not clicking. You blame me for what? For wanting to see dark themes (WITH ADULTS! He's an adult!!! He looks young but not like a child, damn it) in a psychological horror? Grooming is a part of his past, it makes the story consistent and explains his attachment. I don't want to see it! I'd like to see their feelings, interactions (including mc) in the present. Yes, it is incest, yes, it's immoral, because it's a fcking psychological horror. I'm sure you didn't come here for a fluffy otome dating simulator with consensual relationships, did you?
But I consented to playing???? Obviously???? That kid didn't necessarily consent to being groomed and manipulated you know??? You think just because it's legal, just because he's an adult it's fine so let's have an orgy? Far from the truth dude, the story should stay as is a psychological HORROR not some sex game, surely I'm not the only one that mistaken him for like ten years old the way they drew him, I'm more than confident that his confession was meant to make us uncomfortable just like EVERYTHING ELSE IN THIS VN, if you had wanted to see just the interactions, see their feelings be more explored then I understand that, I would too, I as well love psychology but in case you haven't noticed you didn't make it SEEM like that in your original comment, talking bout some polyamorous relationship if any of Elliot's feelings were mutual then that'd be genuinely disgusting, that'd just be a gross extension of the authors desires
