Madness Mantra | |
| Cats And The Other Lives (Video Game) / int_141a6acb | comment |
Madness Mantra: Lorainne is prone to this due to her implied dementia and her tendency to regress to past events. We learn why this is in Chapter 2. Thomas Mason ran away to find his father, Bernard, after he attempted to start a commune in Death Valley, which failed. Bernard returned home, and Lorraine chewed him out for it, demanding that he find her son. She continues this to the present day, even reciting full conversations between herself, Uriel, and Bernard. At times Lorraine becomes a ghostly memory and relives the moment after the police suggest she focus on her surviving children. | |

The Ghost | |
| Cats And The Other Lives (Video Game) / int_1ba17583 | comment |
The Ghost: Several, actually. Thomas Mason disappeared during the 1970s, but you can still see memories of him as a young boy in the Manson house and his memory and the impact of his disappearance haunts the family to this day. Uriel Mason also applies due to his Small Role, Big Impact in shaping Bernard Mason into the man he became and perpetuating Generational Trauma. Beth Mason Carmichael is the daughter of Shannon and Jonathan who is in college and isn't at the funeral or in the house during the game. Still, tensions exist between her sister and mother, going by their calls and texts. And in a semi-literal sense, most of the family members' memories appear like ghosts at various points. | |

| Cats And The Other Lives (Video Game) / int_20989d05 | comment |
Parents as People: Bernard Mason, Shannon Carmichael Mason and Dr Jonathan Carmichael are particular examples of this but the adult Masons are this in general. Liam even mentions to Addy that he used to think that adults had it all planed out, but the older he got, he realised how lost they really were. | |

Uncertain Doom | |
| Cats And The Other Lives (Video Game) / int_2854b56d | comment |
Uncertain Doom: Aspen is noted to be quite an old cat at the start of the game and many characters make reference to her age and how Aspen will die soon. That said, during the epilogue of the game, the family reconciles and is getting ready to leave the house behind. It is not known where Aspen will end up after the house is sold and since his owner Bernard is dead, but the members of the family seem to care about him. It is also possible that Aspen died in the end peacefully in her sleep, with the game's conclusion. The fact that Aspen's abilities to jump and move have also become limited during the ending and her seeming more exhausted than ever may support this. It is left ambiguous whether Aspen has died or not, but it is heavily implied. | |

Bilingual Bonus: Several. Señora Mercedes Núñez often talks in Gratuitous Spanish in her conversations to the family, even explaining the meanings behind them on occasion. When Farrah is alone in the bedroom, after you discover her visa is failing, she mutters in Arabic to herself. And in a throwaway line in Chapter 2, Murray mentions the Irish term for St Patrick's Day (Lá Fhéile Pádraig) correctly with a night he had. | |

Defector from Decadence | |
| Cats And The Other Lives (Video Game) / int_38f1a7ed | comment |
Defector from Decadence: A complicated example. Bernard Mason attempted to defect from decadence, after learning the extent of his father's work (and by extension his family) and gradually became completely disillusioned by his actions. It's why he and other idealists attempted to start a utopian cult in Death Valley. After that failed, he returned home after Thomas' disappearance. | |

Not Now, We're Too Busy Crying Over You: Kinda. Aspen's meows after she returns to the house, after escaping the pound's van are intially ignored in favour of Shannon calling them out over the phone. And when a fight breaks out between the family, it's up to Aspen try and get through to them. | |

Wham Shot: In Chapter 1 after attempting to get a wooden statue from Murray, he suddenly kicks Aspen to get it back and sobs afterwards, cradling it close. Near the end of Chapter 2, after a family argument in which Liam accidentally slaps and knocks down Farah while trying to get at Shannon, Aspen enters the bathroom through the window and sees him in the bathtub full of his own blood. | |

Affair? Blame the Bastard | |
| Cats And The Other Lives (Video Game) / int_509e8f83 | comment |
Affair? Blame the Bastard: While we never really learn Lorraine's perspective regarding Dawn, Shannon does not take to her half-sister that well. It reaches a breaking point, which Shannon alludes to in an argument where Dawn smashes a bottle towards Shannon. It also doesn't help that Dawn was only found out by her father when her mother died of cancer when she was young, barely a year after Thomas went missing, whom Shannon blamed herself for. | |

Meaningful Name | |
| Cats And The Other Lives (Video Game) / int_6bda9a30 | comment |
Meaningful Name: Aspen, the cat. Stated very early on. All of Aspen's ancestors have been named Aspen by Bernard, maybe also of the symbolism attached to Aspen trees. They are often left out to help the deceased to rebirth, which is even referenced somewhat in the achievement Back from The Dead after you save Liam from his suicide attempt, and are noted frequently in the game for its ability to clone itself. | |

Once More, with Clarity: Considering the game's themes and gameplay, it's natural this would occur. One example of this is a conversation between Bernard and Murray with Bernard being angry at Murray for not completing the winter garden in time. In actuality, it was because Shannon was coming, and both had plans to raid the cellar to mix drinks. | |

What Happened to the Mouse? | |
| Cats And The Other Lives (Video Game) / int_863fa679 | comment |
What Happened to the Mouse?: No one knows what really happened to Thomas Mason after he went missing and while most of the mysteries are answered in the game, this one never is. Karl mentions to Addy that closure only happens in stories and in this case the family never learned what happened to him, but the worst can be assumed considering the effort and resources that were put into looking for him. | |

Rage Breaking Point | |
| Cats And The Other Lives (Video Game) / int_c819533b | comment |
Rage Breaking Point: Shannon, who is known to be collected, and sensible and chides Addy for swearing, reaches it over the phone after the pound illegally took Aspen in front of her, citing the eight inches from private property rule and then having lost Aspen. She retorts on the call. | |

Freudian Excuse | |
| Cats And The Other Lives (Video Game) / int_c868a42a | comment |
Freudian Excuse: A few. Murray's attachment to his wooden figurine so much so that he would kick Aspen away from it just to keep it safe, but this is due to the fact it is the last remaining possession his son made for him. Loraine is arguably one of the biggest antagonists in the game towards Aspen when she needs to be moving around the house. But Lorraine also suffers from dementia and believes she is having conversations with Bernard, whom she is furious for his actions in the past and going out to build a failed commune cult in the middle of Death Valley and the subsequent loss of her son, Thomas. | |

Red Herring | |
| Cats And The Other Lives (Video Game) / int_dbca2c99 | comment |
Red Herring: Early on it looks like some of the family members are involved in the mysterious cult which Bernard has been alluded to be a part of. In one scene Dawn announces the resurrection of Cassandra Blackwell is imminent. Turns out, Cassandra is Dawn's character's name in D&D and unrelated to the mysteries of the house. | |

Awful Wedded Life | |
| Cats And The Other Lives (Video Game) / int_deecc9eb | comment |
Awful Wedded Life: While it is difficult to assess the rest of their marriage as they got older, Lorraine and Bernard's marriage was one. Especially considering how Lorraine regresses back to painful memories of their time together and the way she lashes out at Aspen. And while not as bad as that marriage, Jonathan and Shannon are also considering getting a divorce. | |

Spider-Sense: Aspen has one to detect memories of the past, mice, birds and critically Liam's dying gasps after cutting his wrists. | |

Video Game Cruelty Potential | |
| Cats And The Other Lives (Video Game) / int_f87c42d4 | comment |
Video Game Cruelty Potential: Most notably, you have the option of sparing the mouse or killing it. There are options for scrabbing the family members or rubbing gently against them on a minor level. | |

Living Emotional Crutch | |
| Cats And The Other Lives (Video Game) / int_fbd1aeb | comment |
Living Emotional Crutch: Aspen is this to multiple characters, but most of all Aspen is this to, surprisingly, Shannon. The last person you might expect this to apply to, since she is rather cold to Aspen intially. But she still cares for Aspen who comforts her when she is considering selling the house and down in the dumps. Shannon is also shown to connect emotionally to a painting featuring a mother cat and her kittens and even calls Aspen Darling when she wants her to leave to go outside. And Dawn does not take kindly to losing Aspen to the pound in Chapter 3 at all (not helping it happened right in front of her) and becomes defensive, even getting in a fight with Dawn. When Aspen reappears again, weak, Dawn breaks down, cradling her and her hair, which she has been keeping neat throughout the game, is messy. She was worried she'd lost her like she lost Thomas]]. | |

Pet the Dog | |
| Cats And The Other Lives (Video Game) / int_ff7f34c5 | comment |
Pet the Dog: Pet the Cat. Several of the Masons pet Aspen throughout the game. Notably after receiving a recording from Aspen, Dawn hugs her tightly. The other person worth of note is Shannon, who first has Aspen in her lap when she is considering listening to her husband and selling the house or keeping it and secondly, a major moment when she breaks down after discovering Aspen is alive and found, hugging her fiercely. | |
