Cashew

* Phone Fling
* Human
* Animal
* Hybrid

Cashew is a student that is unlocked in the phone update. He is unlocked when Nimh reaches Boyfriend level.
You first meet Cashew when he discovers your phone number on a bookmark someone left in a risqué book.

Cashew was chosen as the winner of Vote-a-Fling Season 2 and is the second Phone Fling guy to be turned into a fully Date-able guy. To unlock him as a full guy, you have to complete all 3 of his conversations with you and get 14 stamps on LTE event or purchasing the Cashew Bundle. He is the sixteenth guy in the game's main tab, but he is not part of the main story and you do not need to unlock any other guys to obtain him.

## Personality

Cashew is a hopeless romantic and a voracious reader, often caught up in daydreams inspired by the books he’s read. He spends most of his time in the university library and is a bit of a loner. He’s easy to fluster, but isn’t so much shy as he is simply inexperienced. He has a playful side, and frequently makes puns, as well as references to various nerdy books and movies.

## Trivia

* Based on his lines, name, and appearance, he is likely a male counterpart to the Crush Crush Phone-Fling, Peanut.
* He is a college student, but has not yet picked a major because he still doesn’t know what he wants to do.
* He lives with a roommate who he describes as an extrovert who is rarely ever home.
* (Mobile Version) The Third PF Pic who supposed to be masturbating got his hand out of his pants.

### Uncut Version

The NSFW track is identical to the SFW track until Cashew's first picture, and then it diverges with your first response. All three pictures are different between versions.

### Second Conversation

#### SFW version

Cashew buys a mysterious magic book, messeging you for help on a mess up he made.

## Dialogue List

### **First Meeting**

1. You're enjoying a quiet afternoon in your garden when you notice a squirrel attempting to access your sweet new squirrel-proof bird feeder. As expected, the feeder begins to spin - faster and faster - until the squirrel can't do anything but hold on for dear life. It's just like one of those hilarious internet videos!
2. **"Aaaahhh!! Make it staaaahhpp!!"** You realize the squirrel is actually screaming. You approach, intending to help, but it's too late - those tiny paws just can't hold on any longer.
3. You've never been smacked in the face by a squirrel before, but hey - there's a first time for everything! The squirrel clings to you, breathless and dizzy. When you finally manage to get a good look at each other, there's a shocking moment of recognition. **"Wait... It's you!?"** says the squirrel. **"I can't believe it! I finally found you! It's me, Cashew!"**

### **Adversary**

* Whooo boy... Um, are you tipping over sideways, or am I? Oohh, oh... G-gimme a sec.

#### Talk

* Now this is what I call a bad fur day... Are magical adventures always this stressful? It's giving me a tummy ache.
* I'm really sorry I'm a squirrel. But hey, you know what they say - good things come in small packages! Not that I have a small - um - nevermind! (Oh gosh, why am I so awkward!?)
* I was so scared I would never find you! I knocked on a LOT of wood, you know, for good luck... But then I knocked on this one tree and an acorn fell out and bonked a big dog on the head, and the next thing I knew I was running for my life! So, um, I'm ready to not be a squirrel anymore, if that's okay.
* Oh, those spinning bird feeders... Really something else, huh? I haven't been this - erm - dizzy since my cousins took me to Joyland and made me go on all the rides. Whoa, you should charge admission on that thing.
* I was just out for a spin, thought I'd drop by... Say hello, y'know... Just lil ol' Cashew, checking in. So... What's new? (PLEASE SAY YOU CAN HELP ME.)

#### Date

* [Dinner] Thank you for a lovely dinner date. The food was just peachy, the view was one-in-a-melon, and you... Were the cherry on top. I'm berry grapeful and I hope we can do it again in the fruiture.
* [Boat Ride] That was incredible! I'm pretty sure I even jumped over a shark at one point!
* [Coaster] Hokey smoke! That aviator cap gave me all sorts of courage! What can we try next? Scuba diving? I wanna karate-chop a sea sponge!
* [Carnival] That was fun! I definitely won't have nightmares tonight! My only regret is all the butter in my fur. Why did I think hiding in the popcorn was a good idea?

#### Poke

* Eargh! What are you doing? Ah! No really, I'm completely stumped. Hehehe... Get it? No, sorry - I can leaf if you want me to.

#### Upgrade to Acquaintance

1. So what now? Do we just... Start getting to know each other?
2. So um... Do you know how much a polar bear weighs? Males can actually exceed a thousand pounds sometimes, it's pretty crazy! What? Oh, did you think I was going for a "breaking the ice" joke? The polar caps are melting, it's not really something to make fun of.

### **Acquaintance**

* People keep seeing me and shouting "SQUIRREL!" - like it's funny? I feel like I'm missing something.

#### Talk

* I recently made friends with a moose. He asked me if I wanted to help him take down a couple of nefarious foreign spies, so... I guess I have a backup plan if this curse-breaking thing doesn't work out.
* Do you wanna pet me? l'm really soft and fluffy, especially my underbelly. Erm... That sounded a bit weird. Sorry. I meant it... Platonically.
* Let's keep things casual for now. Or should I say... Cash-ual? Hehe... That means we take it slow and don't get our hopes up, which is essentially my philosophy for all things in life.
* Who let the dogs out? Seriously, they're everywhere and they won't stop chasing me! Think I could convince the game's programmer to give me some kind of... Uh, rocket launcher? Katana? Heck, l'd take a frying pan at this point!
* I jumped off a roof earlier, thinking I could fly. Turns out I'm... Not that kind of squirrel.

#### Upgrade to Frenemy

1. Are you sure this isn't all a dream? Do you think - should I pinch you? Or, wait, you're supposed to pinch me. I can, um, I can do it myself if that's less awkward.
2. Ow! Ah! Okay, I am for sure awake. That hurt, and now I feel dumb. Let's... Let's just forget it ever happened.
3. [With 'Friend' picture] You walk among the blossoms with Cashew, enjoying the sunshine and each other's company. **"I've honestly never clicked with anyone this way. And... It's not so bad, being a squirrel, with a wonderful friend like you."**

### **Frenemy**

* I'd like to make myself useful. Is there anything I can carry for you? These cheek pouches hold a lot more than you'd think! Err - sorry if that sounded... Unsavory.

#### Gift

* I'm gonna stick this in my cheek. Y'know, for safekeeping.

#### Upgrade to Friendzone

1. I guess the whole curse-breaking thing is easier said than done. Maybe we need to branch out? Get to the root of the problem? Turn over a new leaf?
2. This is pretty overwhelming... Let's just take a step back and really try to see the forest for the trees.

### **Friendzone**

* Strange circumstances nutwithstanding, I'm really enjoying getting to know you.

#### Talk

* You seem like such an interesting person. You're basically a real life protagonist. Do you have plot armor? Can I try it on?
* I have the strongest craving for walnuts. I'm MEGA allergic, but oh man, I want them so bad. It's these squirrel impulses! Gahh, someone save me from myself!
* Are you hungry? I'm an expert forager now, so lunch is on me! Oh, um... You like nuts and seeds, right?
* Did you know, January 21st is National Squirrel Appreciation Day AND National Hugging Day? I just thought I'd let you know, in case you - um - wanted to celebrate together.
* So the other squirrels were telling me about this house with a whole ninja-style, squirrel-sized obstacle course in the backyard... It sounds, well... Nuts! And super fun. So I'm going to go out on a tree limb here and say whoever built it is cool as heck.
* I just had a great idea for a cosplay that we could do together! Ready? You dress up like Bob Ross, and l'll be Peapod the Pocket Squirrel! Or, you know, I could just... Hang out in your shirt pocket for no reason other than it just looks really comfy in there. Up to you.

#### Upgrade to Awkward Besties

1. Now that we've gotten to know each other better... You're saying we should try a kiss to break the spell?
2. I'll try not to read into that too much, but... Okay! I trust you. Let's give it a try.
3. [With 'Kiss' picture] **"Time to try the kissing thing? Okay, here goes 'nuttin..."** You can't help but chuckle as you lean down for the kiss. In an explosion of sparkles and bubbles, the cute, nerdy guy you know as Cashew reappears!

### **Awkward Besties**

* The plot thickens. Now, I'm only kind of a squirrel! Does this happen to everybody? Oh, do you think one of your other friends could help me find pants that'll fit this tail?

#### Talk

* Oh yeah, I was always that kid who stayed up late, with a flashlight, reading under the covers. Well, actually, I still do that. Wait - why do I still do that? I mean, there's no one telling me to go to sleep now. Hm...
* Do you maybe want to watch the livestream of the World Speed Reading Championship with me? I promise it's more exciting than it sounds! Well... Eh, kind of.
* My weekend is all booked. As in, I just got twelve books out of the library, so if you need me, I will be... Well, next to the big stack of books.
* Why is my name Cashew? Well, in a "nutshell" hehe... My dad lost a bet. It's fine! I'm not, ah, salted about it or anything. Eh? Eh?
* I just love classic adventure books... You know like, Treasure Island, The Time Machine, Fifty Shades of Gre...een Eggs and Ham. Yup, that's what I said.
* You want to know what happened to the magic journal? Uh huh... So, I panicked and threw that thing in a dumpster. Well, hopefully it was incinerated and didn't somehow end up in the hands of a... Burgeoning supervillain?
* Well, I still haven't picked a major... It's just too hard to decide what I want to do with my life! Travel writer? Archeologist? University professor? Basically I just want to be Doctor Jones, y'know?!
* I mean, my dad used to say that, "the road of life is paved with flat squirrels who couldn't make a decision," and as an indecisive squirrel-boy, those words hit a little different now.

#### Gift

* Nice! This definitely puts you in my "good books". Hehe!

#### Date

* [Dinner] I had a really great time! Although I did feel a bit overdressed. Be honest - did I look classy, or did I look like I raided my dad's closet? Yeah... Maybe I won't raid my dad's closet next time.
* [Boat Ride] I am so sorry for almost capsizing us. I just couldn't decide which book I wanted to read you, so I brought them all. But it was lovely, wasn't it? Let's do it again soon.
* [Coaster] That was super fun! Except for when I nearly lost my glasses - I'm sure I made quite a "spectacle" of myself, with all the screaming. Hahaha.
* [Carnival] That was... Um... So lame! Oh, man, I wasn't scared at all. What? No, I wasn't hiding in my hood! I was just... Cold! Now can you hold me? Again, it's not because I'm scared - it's because I'm cooollld.

#### Poke

* Ahaha! Stop, stop, no! Tickling is strictly forbidden on this campus. I wouldn't want you to get in trouble!

#### Upgrade to Crush

1. I haven't dated a lot. I guess I've always just been waiting for the "one" - you know, which, I know, a lot of people think is mega corny...
2. But who cares what people think? I love corny! I'm a total "corn nut" to be honest. And on that note... I appreciate you helping me come out of my shell.

### Crush

* This is like a fairy tale. Except, instead of kissing a frog and getting a prince, you kissed a squirrel and got... A book worm, hehe. Decidedly less fluffy, yes, but hopefully just as cute?

#### Gift

* Aww, thanks! I'll add this to my stash.

#### Upgrade to Sweetheart

1. Was there anything else you wanted to know about me? I promise I'm an open book.
2. I'm probably not a very interesting book, compared to you, but... I'm open. Because, well... I like you. And I hope you like me too.

### **Sweetheart**

* Hey! Would you be interested in joining my book club? So far l'm the only member, but this month's theme is Modern Interspecies Paranormal Romance, which I think is right up your alley!

#### Upgrade to Boyfriend

1. This might surprise you, but I'm actually something of a hot sauce enthusiast. And you, my friend... Are the hottest sauce l've encountered thus far.
2. I want to formally apologize for subjecting you to a truly awful pickup line.

### **Boyfriend**

* \*YaaaAAAAWWWN\* Ah, 'scuse me - I didn't get much sleep last night. I was reading a real page-turner, and then I was thinking about you, and the next thing I knew the sun was coming up! It is now officially coffee o'clock. Wanna join?

#### Talk

* All right, I have to admit... I kind of get why people like wearing fur now. It's pretty luxurious. Aahh, I hope those animal rights people don't skin me alive for saying that!
* Do you think there'll be any long-term side effects from... Y'know... Being a squirrel? I'm just hoping this urge to hoard stuff goes away soon. See, I've got snacks stashed all over the place, but I can't remember half of my hiding spots!
* Do you have any books I can carry for you? No? Damn, I always thought that was romantic as hell. Um... How about flowers? Chocolates? Stolen musical instruments painted blue? Anything! Please, let me woo you!
* Sure, call me old-fashioned, but l'd choose a musty old paperback over an e-reader any day. I'd also choose an unlikely meet-cute over swiping right on a dating app... Though ours was more of a "meet-weird", I guess, what with me being a squirrel and all. Still, I wouldn't trade it for anything.
* You've really shown me a whole new world. Your problem-free philosophy is... It's like a spoonful of sugar - it just makes everything delightful! I see now that the most fantastical, magical things can happen, and it all starts with a wish. I'm just trying to say... Thank you for making me a part of that world.

#### Gift

* I feel like I should be lavishing you with gifts, not the other way around! Hmm, what do you get the person who has everything... How about a kiss? Heehee, get over here.

#### Poke

* Oo! Haha, your hands are so cold! Come here, let me warm them for you.

#### Upgrade to Lover

1. Sure, it hasn't involved any airship battles, sword fights, or lost civilizations... But l've still been loving every minute of this adventure with you.
2. Is it too late for a sword fight, though?
3. [With 'Transformation' picture] Cashew reads to you, his voice so soothing you nearly fall asleep. **"Are you bored?"** he teases, setting the book aside. He kisses you playfully, then passionately, until a shimmering swirl of magic transforms him back into himself! Once again, true love breaks the curse.
4. [With 'Lover' Picture] **"Thank you for everything. This quest might be over, but I'm looking forward to a lifetime of magical adventures with you."** - *Love, Cashew*

2. **"I've never felt this strongly about anyone before,"** Cashew breathes. He surprises you then by picking you up and carrying you to the chaise. You take your time exploring each other's bodies, and you make love for a long, long time.
3. Afterwards, Cashew can't stop grinning his face off. **"Wow. WOW! I've only ever read about stuff like that. I mean, I had no idea! Thank you. Thank you! Is it weird to say thank you? Oh gosh, am I babbling? I'm sorry-"** You cut him off with a kiss, after which he pulls you smiling into a tight, affectionate hug.

### **Lover**

* Now that the crisis is over, I can't even explain how excited I am that magic is real. I mean tell me everything, please! Are there dragons? Can we enchant our dishes to wash themselves?

#### Date

* [Masquerade] You and I are joined by the bonds of love. And you cannot track that, not with a thousand bloodhounds. You cannot break it, not with a thousand swords. Sidenote: this mask really is terribly comfortable!
* [All the rest are same as Boyfriend]

#### Upgrade to Max Lover

1. That was fun. Well, I guess I'll... "Cashew" on the flip side, hehe.
2. Wait! I was kidding, I don't want to say goodbye yet!

### Max Lover

* Are you cold? You can borrow my jacket if you want. I'd also drape it over a puddle for you if that situation were to arise.
* Come here... Hang out in my arms for a while.
* I just finished reading the most exhilarating book. What a rollercoaster! Gosh, I need to do something with all this intense emotion... Wanna make out?
* My name is Cashew. You stole my heart. Prepare to be kissed!
* Every time I see you, my heart does that little happy flutter. Like, literally every time. I could close my eyes right now, open 'em, and my heart would do that thing again.
* **(Naked)** Hey. Oh, did I forget to get dressed? Hm, would you look at that.
* **(Naked)** You turn my paperback... Into a hardcover. Bahaha I couldn't even finish saying that with a straight face! Oh man, I am such a dork.
* **(Naked)** Oh hey! I was just in the middle of reading "The Physical Manifestation of Pounding My Acorn Into a Sentient Glacier and Causing 69 Avalanches Gets Me Off" by Truck Pringle, who is unironically my favorite erotica author.

#### Talk

* I'd love it if you thought of me as your knight in shining armor, though I recognize that I'm probably more of a teacup in tinfoil.
* I made a wish on every birthday candle, every shooting star, every coin tossed into a wishing well... And now, here you are. I guess dreams really do come true.
* I'm just nuts about you. Um, no pun intended... Well, this time.
* I'm feeling a little rebellious today. Should we... Go hang out in the restricted section of the library? Try not to get caught discussing books at a slightly-louder-than-normal speaking volume?
* Um, there's this nice little treehouse near my place. I was wondering... Would you want to go there with me? We could bring some blankets, have a picnic, read to each other... I know, I know, I'm surprised at myself too! I never used to be so outdoorsy!
* I can't believe how lucky I am. All my dreams came true with you.
* I'd go anywhere with you. If you wanted to sail the seven seas, or journey to the center of the earth, or travel around the world in eighty days... Or just hang out at home.
* I'd go hunt down pirate treasure for you. I would win a jousting tournament for you. I'd \*lose\* a jousting tournament for you, if you asked. I'd slay a dragon, or... Maybe even train one? Whatever floats your boat. Just ask and l'll reply, "As you wish."
* It's true what they say - having fun isn't hard when you've got a library card! By the way, I added you as an authorized user on mine, so we can share. Isn't that romantic? \*Sigh\*
* Should I write a book? It'd have to be a thrilling, romantic adventure tale - dedicated to you, of course, because you're my inspiration! And also probably the only person who'll ever read it...
* Someday, I'm gonna own a huge old-fashioned library with rolling ladders - and the books will be arranged to spell out "I love you, Marshmallow." Heehee!
* Did you know that a squirrel's teeth never stop growing? l'm just glad we broke the curse before things got too out of control. Now there's nothing stopping me from showering you with kisses and nibbles!
* Hey. Are you a library book? 'Cause you've got "fine" written all over... Wait, I think I said that wrong. You're supposed to be an overdue library book, I think. Did I say overdue? Gah, let me just start over!
* **(Naked)** So, I don't know if you've noticed, but I blush a lot when I get turned on. I mean, I BLUSH blush. It's a bit embarrassing... Unless you like it?
* **(Naked)** I still can't believe I turned myself into a squirrel. No Nut November is gonna have a whole new meaning this year...
* **(Naked)** Brr... It's a bit cold in here, isn't it? Come closer, we need to share our body heat in order to survive!
* **(Naked)** My heart and brain are in overdrive right now. Are we... On the same page? Are you as into this as I am?
* **(Naked)** It's time I put down my book and focused my attention solely on you. Let me just find my bookmark really quick... (Where did I put that thing...?) Ah, screw it, one dog-eared page never hurt anyone. C'mere, you!
* **(Naked)** Fashion is hard, so I decided not to bother today.
* **(Naked)** Wanna know something? I used to feel really insecure about my body, but when you look at me the way you do, I feel like the suavest, most handsomest guy ever that has ever been alive. With, um... bad grammar, apparently.
* **(Naked)** I hope you know, I can't go into that one section of the library anymore without feeling a lil... Y'know. Frisky.
* **(Naked)** I feel like I have a fever. Or maybe I'm just lovesick. Can you check my temperature... By pressing your body against mine?

#### Gift

* Oh wow. Oh wow! This is completely perfect! And so are you. How did I get so lucky?
* How can I ever repay you for this? And... For everything else!? It's impossible... But I'll keep trying for as long as I live.
* I'm going to write you a proper thank you note on fancy stationery using an old-fashioned quill pen, just so you know how much this means to me.
* You are the most generous person I've ever met! You really don't have to do this. Ohh, but I do love it. Thank you.
* **[Boxers]** Hmm. I'm a bit on the fence about these. Do they look oak-ay? Hahaha, sorry, I couldn't help but make... Acorn-y joke.
* **[Birthday Suit]** So... Here I am. The real Cashew, as nature intended. What do you think.
* **[Spooky Outfit]** Peel bananas, peel-peel bananas! What? Orange you glad to see me? Sorry, I'm bad at pickup limes...
* **[Butler Outfit]** I'm happy to bring you food and stuff, but I hope you've hired a separate chef. The only thing I know how to make is instant noodles.
* **[Masquerade Outfit]** Tis I, Cashew, ready to whisk you away on a romantic adventure! You'll be doing most of the adventuring, though. I'm just gonna follow along behind you and write about your escapades.
* **[Kigurumi Outfit]** Can you imagine if squirrels were actually human-sized? Now that I think of it, that sounds like exactly the kind of pulp sci-fi story I'd love to read... I need to go to the library RIGHT NOW to see if they have this! C'mon, let's go!!!
* **[Summer Outfit]** I'm sunscreened, antihistamined, and ready for an outdoor adventure! I'm also bug-sprayed, but that didn't rhyme with the other two, so I didn't say it. Which is why I'm saying it now. Woo! Let's go!
* **[RPG Outfit]** Are we roleplaying? Neat! I'll be a knight-errant, wandering the world in search of wrongs to right! Oof, this sword is a bit heavy.
* **[Kimono Outfit]**

#### Poke

* No no no no! Aaahaha! I ALMOST got away from you! There's one thing I do miss about being a squirrel - I could run so much faster!
* Whoa! How do you always manage to catch me off guard? Hehehe.
* Ack! Hahaha! Oh, I will so get you back for that!
* **(Naked)** Haha! Ha! What are you-? Oh! I do see where you're going with this. Hehehe. Carry on.
* **(Naked)** Ahaha! Dang, if only I had those super fast squirrel reflexes. I'll have to get you back when you least expect it.
* **(Naked)** That feels really good. Don't stop, please.
* **(Naked)** Hey! That tickles! Oooo, I've got goosebumps now... And I'm a little turned on.

#### Upgrade to Lover +

1. You go above and beyond, every single day...
2. Honestly, you inspire me - to be better, and to love you more.

### **Dialogue about Cole**

* Someone left a weird book on my pillow that said "Death Memo" on the front, and it had my name written on every page. So... It's a joke or something, right? One of those internet memes? Haw haw...?
* Somebody... Broke into my dorm... And dog-eared the pages of all my books. ALL the pages. Of ALL my books! Should we call the police!? Maybe they can dust for fingerprints? Oooh, I think I need to sit down.
* That sketchy guy over there looks familiar. And his voice... Where have I heard it before? It's kind of nice, actually. I wish my voice sounded that smooth and... Dangerous.
* Did you hear!? Somebody tried to commit arson at the library! I bet it was that guy who keeps glaring at me from the murder mystery section. What a creep!
* Somebody left me a gift basket filled with peanut brittle, macadamia nut cookies, and chocolate covered almonds... Shame, they must not know about my nut allergy.
* I think someone stole my identity! There's a bunch of late fees racked up on my library card for books like "Small Game Hunting" and "Getting Away With Murder For Dummies" - but I don't read stuff like that! I swear!
