I am really confused about this game. Is it like "Doki doki literature club" ? the game seems to break the fourth wall after getting bad endings and someone speaks in red text. Is it Ren and is he stuck in the game like Monica?Or is he and Redacted separate people, with him being a game character,but Redacted being some sort of entity who's stuck in the void of the game,or in it's code,and acknowledges that it's a game and someone's playing it and they speak to the player, not the game's protag?
✦゜ANSWERED: 14 Days With You is like 14 Days With You. It's not meant to be similar to DDLC in any way, and Ren isn't supposed to be like Monika or any other self-aware character.
Please don't associate 14DWY with other games just because they share similar tropes. /lh
But!! To answer your question: Ren isn't aware that Angel and the player are separate people. As of right now, he considers Angel and you as the same entity, and speaks to you as though you're part of his universe.
Ren is aware that his entire existence only comes into fruition whenever you play the game — but to him, that's considered normal — the same way getting wifi from trees and not discovering 80% of the ocean is considered normal for us. Nothing is out of place for him, and the way he interacts with his environment doesn't seem weird or out of place for him.
The Dead Ends are the only time Ren breaks the fourth wall, but it's still a massive WIP and there's not enough content for it to make much sense yet. But once more Days get released, this will be further explained!!

Ancient Roman Poets on a Modern Date
Catullus (Gaius Valerius Catullus)
If you meet him before Lesbia, he will be charming, eloquent, and happy to go wherever you like, although his funds could be limited. Even so, he'll make sure you both enjoy yourselves. Theater or concert tickets in the plebian--nosebleed--section, for instance. If you meet him after Lesbia, there is a possibility he will spend the entire time trauma-dumping about his ex. If you also have one to complain about, this could be cathartic.
Virgil (Publius Vergilius Maro)
He takes you out to his beehive dressed in full bee-keeping gear to introduce you to his bees and then goes inside, where you sample different varieties of honey drizzled over fruit. He is sweet, but does talk about fields and bees a lot.
Ovid (Gaius Valerius Catullus)
Let's be honest. This might be more of a Tinder or Grindr hookup than a date. However, it's possible you met at a theater, race track, parade, or seaside resort. If you are aro/ace, run away. If you aren't and you are interested in seeing if he truly is proficient as a teacher of love, stick around. Don't expect him to be faithful, however. And although his manners are perfect, remember that it's an art and a game to him, so guard your heart.
Horace (Quintus Horatius Flaccus)
He'll take you out for a night of expensive dining and pay for it solely because the friend of a friend that owns the place owes him. He is charming company and can get you into any exclusive club or private experience you want to go to, but will expect reciprocated favors. Also, he turns on the charm, but absolutely expects to be complimented in return.
Sulpicia
She plays hard to get initially, not wanting to be too obvious with her affection. The first date will be YOUR choice. Pick well and she'll follow that with a candlelit dinner and eternal devotion. She does have expensive taste, however, and she would absolutely report you to her scary uncle if you break her heart.
Martial (Marcus Valerius Martialis)
He takes you on a picnic. Despite this being in the country, he'll opt for fine wine and gourmet food. He's easy to talk to, funny, and catty with his gossip. However, he'll also go on about his childhood in the country and how he went hunting and fishing and how he misses the simple country life. (All while sipping from an expensive goblet.)
Livy (Titus Livius)
He takes you to a museum and acts as your tour guide throughout the entire thing. Who knew that your date would double as a living and breathing audio tour? You're supposed to eat at the museum cafe, but you may not make it there before it closes... If you're a fan of history, you're in for a treat.
Iullus Antonius
Iullus is a huge romantic and just as charming as his famous father. He will show up with flowers and take you on a date in a small, undiscovered restaurant and to a lot of cute places that are off the beaten path. Whether you hit it off romantically or not, he's the kind of guy who could be your ride or die. (Spoiler alert, when he says he's your ride or die, he's extremely serious. 💀)
Albius Tibullus
When he falls, he falls hard. He takes you on a date in an orchard. This includes picking grapes and then tasting wines. If the date is before he was entranced with one of the lovers he wrote about, all is well. If not, he might get a little teary eyed about his past love(s). He is polite, sweet, attentive, and apologetic though.
Juvenal (Decimus Junius Juvenalis)
He takes you to an expensive restaurant and makes it clear he is only paying for HIS meal. The entire time he criticizes everyone else in the restaurant for being posers and judges them based upon appearance, status, and gender. His date is not a safe place for anyone who doesn't fit his definition of traditional values. Definitely talks about kids these days and the degradation of society.

Imagine like noritoshi comes out of his dorm in sweat pants and t shirt and everyone is like OMG HES NOT IN UNIFORM FOR ONCE
And y/n is just like haha let me love you 😭
👁👄👁
Anon u don't understand I would actually die.
I would collapse.
Combust, if you will.
Okay but imagine kyoto gc y/n specifically- cause like ohmygosh he looks like a normal teenager, and his hair is down and oh wow look he's on his phone lounging on the sofa in sweats and a t shirt and dear goodness is he well built. He just rolled his eyes at something todo said and yeah he does that like everyday but it hits different when he's doing it while he looks like he's just a normal 18 year old. Curse that t shirt for showing off what years of training with a bow does to someone's biceps.
And then BOOM- noritoshi asks her what she's staring at, and in a moment of panic she blurts out "uhm- A BEE!" and now the entire dorm is thrown into chaos because todo is scared of bees, miwa screamed which caused momo to flinch while she was cooking and now the kitchen towel is on fire. In an attempt to get the fire out, noritoshis shirt catches on fire- rational and quick thinking as he is he tears the shirt off and throws it on the ground and stomps on it- effectively stopping the fire. And causing y/n to evaluate and rethink the last 3 years because holy cow noritoshi is jacked but thats not even why he's attractive- he's smart and kind and- uh oh, is she in love with noritoshi???

Interviewer: And lyrically what is Only Ones Who Know about?
Alex: Oh that were just, so... me and me friend John McClure were once in town--this is like, it’s very old that song, I’ve had that probably when we were recording the first album but um... no, in fact, probably a little bit after. I think it must’ve been just when, like, uni term had started back or whatever, and there were like these two--this lass and this lad in town, like on a Sunday night. And they were, like, asking for directions or somewhere to go about or whatever, and I don’t know, I just sorta... they looked like they didn’t quite know each other, almost like they’d been bound together, probably had the room next door to each other in the halls or...
Interviewer: Yeah yeah
Nick: And you’ve been following them
Alex: So I followed them! For six months after that. No, but like, I don’t know, but I got that impression from them and I thought... and then I kinda daydreamed about it and that...
Interviewer: And the results are here in this song
