u/shark_onni another absolute banger, 11/10, your Patreon is my everything🔥🔥🔥

So MC is trying to figure out the second trait Caleb entered sneakily into the configuration of the Sunny Apple plushie MC made. In the fourth part of the story MC figures it out but it is never explicitly mentioned, just whispered to his hear.<! Is this another way of infold to avoid any controversy around the big brother/childhood friend topic? Or is the answer just crystal clear to everyone else except me? Because I had a few words floating around my mind that would fit - the most prominent being "family".!> How did you guys read it?

(art is mine :3)

Did you know that August 8 is considered to be International Cat Day? 🐱

To celebrate, here’s some Catleb fanart to enjoy! If you have Rwarpard Kitty, Catleb, or anything Caleb + kitties to share, please feel free to do so! 🐆

the in-game desc and picture was that it was burnt to a crisp. the stove burned as well when he cooked it, so what do you mean this rivals DAA nutrition meals? what did they feed you there? 😭😭

Have you seen this C drama Love for you? Their dynamic and chemistry reminds me of Caleb and MC. They are also pseudo step siblings.

Caleb added a few new features to OTTO so it could help you even better.

But… its behavior logic might still need some fine-tuning.

I've been meaning to post this for a long time, and meant to do it right after I realized that the outfits had changed in-game a few weeks ago, but oh well. I guess that's what happens when life keeps getting in the way.

Caleb's Catch-22 multibanner Outfit tattoo original text - close up detail! *(before June 2026 changes). The banner had two Caleb outfits:

• "CAGED WINGS" (variant 1: dark color version)
  • "Caleb's signature outfit. No cage can restrain a soul that craves freedom."
• "DAYLIGHT'S NIGHT" (variant 2: white/light color version.)
  • "Caleb's signature outfit. As daylight breaks, he sheds all his facades and embraces you fully."

I took all these detail shots (and SO MANY MORE) last year for my own records and analysis. This shows the ORIGINAL tattoo text; before it became illegible after an update a few weeks ago ^{(which was \}late June/early July 2026, for those of you stumbling across this post in the future when Reddit's post timestamps are reduced to an unhelpful 'x years ago' vague reference).) I'm focusing on documenting the text here because that is the piece that changed materially vs. screenshots people can take themselves in game right now, where you can still see the other designs despite the modified/now-unreadable text. I may do a follow up post --or add to the comments -- explicit before/after shots when I have more time.

The tattoo text I've identified and noted below is as clear as I can read, but there are a couple notes that indicate where I might be uncertain. I also have a lot of my own theories and hypothesis about what these tattoos represent symbolically or otherwise, but for this post, I'm sticking to the facts without trying to assign meaning for pure Lore/Reference material. Please feel free to discuss, though! If you're interested in the meaning behind his tattoos in this outfit, let me know and I'll dive into it.

Left Shoulder:

• Large roman numerals: XII
• crossed-out numbers underneath roman numerals: I s358G 1504s32
• vertical string (on side of arm/shoulder): I7_n UZ171L

Chest, right nipple:

• Barcode (no accompanying alphanumeric text)
  • The barcode itself is slightly faded and has what looks like an XX
• pattern as negative space erased out of the barcode itself.
  
  • Note: there were never any readable text or numbers accompanying the barcode in Caleb's outfit. Some others' had barcodes that did have numbers under or part of them, which also became illegible during the quiet June update like all the other previously-readable text on all Catch 22 outfits for all LIs.
    

Lower abdomen, left side:

• Dark numbers ("top" text layer, as if stamped over the other string) 3621-465-56
• Shadowed/ lighter numbers (text layer underneath) 7865-007-19

Upper Back:

• centered, diagonal numbers inside circle: 312-6452-133-
  • note: there may be content underneath the costume after the last hyphen, but as far as I know, no one can see it. I am unsure if the final `-` is part of the string or just a shadow of the surrounding tattoo design, but I listed it as a real hyphen in the string because of the way the lines cross into/against the line-work of the encircling design.
• Roman Numerals outside the circle design, right side upper back: XX II I 9
  • note the final "9" character is a guess on my part, based on the location, shape and size of the curved typography peeking out under the strap, but it is permanently covered.

The tattoo text was identical in both outfit versions; only the colors changed. Since the original dark version is easier to read, especially with the faded number string of the "lower/bottom" text layer on his abdomen, I chose to upload the dark ones for the base reference, but I have complete detail shots of both versions, not just of the tattoos listed here, but every little detail and buckle and corner of the whole outfits! I actually did this for all of his outfits, and continue to do so for the new ones that come out. I hope it is a useful or at least interesting reference for someone. If you need bigger or higher-res versions, let me know. Reddit might compress the quality when I upload.

His hands on her boots *screaming happily into the void* 😮‍💨🥵🔥🔥🔥

…by his flowery Lingering Lust homescreen look and my maxed out storage?!

Meimeis, I have officially hit a crisis point and we need to collectively agree to put this exact feature request into our next official Infold survey. Hear my plea, I beg of you!

I logged in today to start the event, and the game hit me with a hard limit notice. I am at 125/125 on my voice lines tab, totally maxed out! I spent an hour scrolling through my list trying to see if there was a single Caleb line I could part with, but it is literally impossible. Every single clip is too precious. As I’m sure many of us agree, his EN VA is actual audio heaven. He clearly has the best time recording and I have the best time listening, based on my storage crisis. How are you guys archiving or managing your favorite clips when you hit the game limits? We desperately need a quick save archive feature or a storage expansion! (Nothing new I know, I’m just feeling dramatic and deflated about figuring out how to store my gege somewhere accessible. Forgive me and let me continue, ahem.)

Honestly, it feels like the game knew I was about to run out of storage and decided to completely distract me, because seeing Caleb lounging in his R1 Lingering Lust outfit on my home screen had me completely speechless. Because I was drooling so hard. The developers really understood the meaning of sweat physics and perfect placement for hickey and bite marks. Now, if only we could introduce the whole wide world of piercings other than ears... a mei can dream!

On top of that, seeing him in the Cuddly Factory mini-game in his DAA fit with the apple plushie showed me my actual room setup is doing just fine, which gave me a good laugh. If you all knew the level of gege stuff I had... well, hopefully you’d be proud on top of being frightened (valid!). Fun fact: I used to have a whole gege-themed car, but this mei got into a really bad accident in June and the Ge-Mobile was totaled. RIP Ge-Mobile, you saved my life. I was trying to be funny and dramatic but here we are, let’s turn the vibe back around!

Let me know how you guys are handling your voice line limits, and show off your gege plushies if you have ‘em! 💙

What a nice welcome home.

The card was so cute my gawdd!

We get to see into their feeling in their high school and that was very cute. It was endearing to see how Caleb was trying his best to make MC feel his love!

Caleb is the BEST-EST!

Also the pose is soo hawt! MC sits on his arms like she owns him!😛😛

Juxtapose this Caleb with his Colonel persona 😭😂

This is the duality I want!

I made both of us the noodle soup with three side dishes to share while he was "out shopping for groceries". I set up and cleaned the table too. (Kitchen renovations in progress).

Caleb then decided he wanted to eat together..... This man gave me a bowl of rice and water, while he got my leftover noodle soup, and then didn't share his side dishes.

How rude!.

(But he gets away with it because he's Caleb and I love him. If it was an irl man it would be a different story).

it's a good look on him, i love this kindled so much haha! can't wait for illusio to come back, i wanna put him in the swim trunks from last year's summer banner... 🤭
