==Trivia==
*Various in-game events imply the following information, which may or may not be considered canon:
**In one event, the player and some characters encounter Violet's "family", a colony of parasitic mushrooms that attempt to coerce them into becoming their hosts.
***In another event, Violet says that a number of her family also lives within Tate's body.
**In one lunch event, Violet wishes to meet Tate's parents. They have not seen him since he and Violet began their relationship, which is said to have been over a month before the game takes place. They are initially horrified at his condition.
*While not necessarily canon, Viiperfish imagines that Tate was a "kind soul" that practiced guitar who chose the wrong place to practice, leading to his infection by Violet.https://btflglitch.tumblr.com/post/189729827070/the-past-young-tate-remember-this-take-is-not
*Violet and Tate are intended to parody and criticize fictional toxic relationships that are romanticized by fans. To this end, their relationship was made to be as obviously unhealthy as possible.File:Discord - Mihail - Violet and Tate.PNG
**They are named after Violet Harmon and Tate Langdon of the "Murder House" (first) season of American Horror Story, an iconic fictional couple whose toxic relationship was greatly romanticized. Ironically, Tate was the abuser in that relationship.
***The developers consider the toxic relationship between Chuck Bass and Blair Waldorf from Gossip Girl to be the most iconic and most romanticized, but felt the reference would be too obvious and cheesy to name the characters after.
*"Portobello" is a common name of the mushroom species Agaricus bisporus.
*"Migoi" is the Tibetan term for the Yeti, which translates as "wild man".https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yeti#Etymology_and_alternative_names
*Violet and Tate's "ship name" being "Violate" was entirely unintentional by the developers, as they were named after other existing characters, but they do like it.
*The only plotline focused on them that the developers ever entertained was having the player date Violet instead of Tate as part of Monster Prom's dark humor and subversion of expectations.File:Discord - Mihail - Violet Tate Plotline.PNG
*Violet likes Tate, being in a relationship, and the nutrients from her host/"boyfriend".https://twitter.com/monsterprom/status/1090641081526562816
**She dislikes pesticides, single people, and people who don't believe in love.
* Under Violet's control, Tate likes whatever she likes, and dislikes whatever she doesn't like.https://twitter.com/monsterprom/status/1090671040550842370
*Tate's outfit is based on the "preppy" subculture and aesthetic. This aesthetic is associated with college prepatory ("prep") schools that upper and upper middle class children attend, as well as Ivy League and other prestigious universities. The dress style has its roots in leisure activities commonly enjoyed by the upper classes in the United Kingdom (such as tennis), and common modern staples include: navy blazers and university logos (the logo for a university or for Spooky HighScott's Second Term outfit bears an identical logo to the one seen in Tate's conceptual design. This is implied to be the logo for Spooky High, even if the hoodie is not in Spooky High's school colors of green and white.
However, Tate's conceptual design's blazer is also not in the school's colors, but is navy as described on Wikipedia, so it is unclear if the artist's intention was for the logo to represent Spooky High or a university, and if this would have had any meaning for Spooky High's school colors. is seen in one of Tate's early conceptual designs), sweaters (often draped over the shoulders and tied by the sleeves), polo shirts, and chinos fabric pants or shorts.
**"Preps" is a type of adolescent/high school clique, a subgenre of the popular clique. They tend to: be good at being social and often get along with everyone; overlap with the jock clique, especially with regards to sports; and are most commonly chosen to have important positions for high school events (such as Class Officers, Prom King/Queen, and Extracurricular Activities). They may be vulnerable, however, due to having to always maintain a proper image.
