## Appearances

### Debut

Class of 09'

Susan Peterson AKA **Mom** is Nicole's Mother in Class of '09.

## Appearance

Mom is a white lady with shoulder-length, bleached blonde hair with black roots. She has light emerald eyes and usually wears red, black and white clothing with trousers.

## Personality

Mom, as her name implies, acts just like a typical mother. However, due to Nicole's depressive and irresponsible behaviour, she tends to angrily argue with her and can't seem to talk to her daughter "normally".

In the first game, Class of 09', she cares for Nicole and asks her how school has been going and understands that it's a hard process. After Nicole states her opinions on men and their feeling, Mom states that it's "mean-spirited". In another route, Nicole gets a 2-day suspension and Mom thinks she is acting out because of her father. She then locks Nicole in her bedroom for the next 2 days.

As seen in the Re-Up introduction, Mom strangles her daughter with muffled shouting noises in the background. Her opinions of Nicole could also root from her dad's suicide reason (the note stating Nicole's Fault) however it isn't canon that she knew it even was Nicole's doing. She is aware that Nicole's mental health is so damaged, that she copes with skipping school, doing her mother's pills and swearing. She is aware that Nicole is using her medicine cabinet to get high.

In one route, where Nicole brings Emily to her house, Mom is very hesitant toward the idea of Nicole having friends, but after seeing Emily, she asks her what her parents do. Opposing to her gentle behavior toward Emily, Nicole comes home at 1 AM with Emily and forces Nicole to tell her what guy she's been with, then yells at her for being so stupid. After Emily insults Mom, she insists Nicole stops hanging out with her then starts sobbing to her room. After this, Mom is too afraid to even see Emily.

In another route, Nicole gets herself expelled. This, obviously, causes Mom to outrage and proceed to kick Nicole out of her house for not only getting expelled indefinitely but also wasting her pills. Mom tells her to "stop lying, don't talk back to your teachers, quit shoplifting, fix your fucking drug problem!"

Mom has a heavy dislike for her son "Gamer Brother" (name given as this game is in Nicole's perspective). Since her son is 26 (later 27 in the Re-Up) she expects him to move out, get a job and stop hoarding the basement. She holds negative opinions towards him as he was the fault of the family moving out of states after two successful years.

## Relationships

Nicole is Mom's daughter. She despises her daughter.

Gamer Brother is Mom's son. She despises him for living in the basement and not getting a job at the age of 26-27.

Miss Lynn and Mom interacted once. Mom calls Miss Lynn "sexy" on a phone call.
