Adam and Colin

Adam and Owen is the friendship between Adam and Colin in Carter Corp.

## Overview

Adam and Colin is the friendship consisting of Adam Peterson and Colin Spencer that is mostly seen in Colin's story route. Adam and Colin are very close friends and bandmates in their band Nightmareden. The two usually get along quite well despite their often conflicting personalities. They have some things in common and they both even engage in hooking up with their groupies a lot after concerts, which makes their bandmate, Doris, angry sometimes.

Since the two spend so much time together during band practice, concerts and just casually hanging out like at bars and Starlite, the two are seen to be very close friends and almost never fight (that is until the player came along). Adam even has to get in between some of Colin's fights with people like the player, Doris and Samuel to calm him down since Adam has the more easy going personality out of the two. They seem to even each other out in terms of attitude and make a good friendship pair.

Adam and sometimes Colin give the players from the other's perspective story route relationship advice and fill the player in on how they are, especially Adam with the main character from Colin's route, as he would also have to calm her down after some of her fight's with Colin, and he would explain why Colin is the way he is sometimes. Adam is one of the very few people who can correct Colin's attitude if his rudeness goes too far that Colin seems to be okay with, as Colin just wouldn't let anyone correct his behavior if he didn't know them well enough. Colin seems to respect Adam despite disliking his morals sometimes, showing that Colin can looks past Adam's morals to see the good in him to be his friend.

Colin and Adam do fight sometimes though. Colin was extremely jealous of Adam sometimes due to his relationship with the player and sometimes suspected that something was going on between them, especially after Adam kissed the player a little after Colin broke up with her. Colin seemed like he couldn't even be in the same room with Adam after he found out but eventually forgave him.

Despite Colin's jealousy towards Adam though, Adam was still the glue that kept Nightmareden together, and Colin seemed to know and appreciate it too. Adam was also very supportive of Colin pursing a solo career in Los Angeles, California, and was the only one who did so in the bad ending, meaning that he would have to leave the band, showing that Adam is selfless towards Colin and supports his dreams, even if it meant having to potentially lose one of his best friends.

In Adam's route, the two are still close friends but it's not really on display in Adam's route, as it's more focused on Adam's friendship with Owen Hobbad instead. Colin and Adam still do Nightmareden concerts together though. However, Adam does not like or respect Colin's workplace and employer, Carter Corp and Ryan Carter. Adam and his group Safeplanet hacked Carter Corp which made Colin, the head of the IT apartment, having to track down the people that hacked his workplace.

When Colin found out that it was Adam who hacked the company, he was furious and disappointed in him, and questioned his morals and motives, and was also mad that he dragged the player in on it as well. Despite this, Colin also seemed sad about it and seemed like he didn't want Adam to go to jail. Colin was willing to let him go and give him a head start showing that Colin cares deeply for Adam and forgives him even when he does the wrong thing and betrays his trust, and would miss him if he went to prison.

Colin and Adam look out for each other, showing that they care about each other. The two could be considered best friends sometimes, rivaling the relationships between Colin and Matt, and Adam and Owen. Adam and Colin have many conflicts sometimes, but are always able to overcome them and stay friends. The two often have to put up with a lot, be it with either each other or others, but that could be one of the reasons why they're close and understand each other, as they can put up with it together.
