The song deals with the theme of insanity, which is also a theme in Rule of Rose. 'Cause love itself is just as innocent as roses in MayĪ Love Suicide has been noted to share similar lyrics with the 1970s song All the Madmen by English musician David Bowie. 'Cause love itself is just as brief as a candle in the wind Though love itself is just as brief as a candle in the wind Cue Tears of Joy.And love itself is just as innocent as roses in May The scene is a brief moment of happiness made all the more poignant by the hell she is walking through. If the player examines a window during the "Once Upon A Time." chapter, Jennifer will bask in the sunlight streaming through it.Even IF you assume that Brown was just a doll, anyone who has ever been a child would know that a beloved doll getting broken is heartbreaking.The fact that three girls could be fooled into killing a puppy is both incredibly disturbing and utterly heart-wrenching at the same time. Under the orders of Wendy, Diana, Meg and Eleanor kidnapped a defenseless puppy, shoved it in a bag, took it to the attic, and beat it to death with hammers. That brief moment in the opening then gains some meaning. However, we are shown during the true ending that Brown was actually a puppy when the events took place, similar to how Jennifer was actually a young girl. We're never told how they do this in the game itself and are lead to assume that, because of the cutscene that shows the imps sweeping a non-bagged Brown and the fact that Brown had previously been seen by both Jennifer and the player as a full-grown dog (that would have been hard to put in a bag while still living) up to that point in the game, Brown was put into the bag after his death. By the end of the game we know that Wendy and the rest of the Aristocrats killed Brown. Remember the moment where Diana, Meg and Eleanor are shown hammering the coffin? Well, right before that there is a moment showing them hammering a bag in the attic.
There is a scene that is very easily missed in the opening.Upon receiving it, Gregory said one final apology to Joshua, then put himself out of his own misery. He fell to his knees and begged for something, which turned out to be a gun.
When he saw the second "Joshua" again, Gregory had a moment of clarity and realized what he had done.

Gregory would then be driven to massacre an entire orphanage full of children, the new fake "Joshua" included. Unfortunately, a scornful little girl took advantage of this and turned Gregory into her own literal attack dog by dressing up as Joshua. Gregory's sanity eroded so much after the second loss of "Joshua" that he would obey the order of anything resembling him. For a time, the little girl sympathized with him and played along, but she too abandoned him when a girl from a nearby orphanage rescued her. He couldn't cope with it, so he kidnapped a little girl and pretended she was his son. When the boy died of illness, Gregory was driven mad with grief. Read his journal and you can see just how much his life revolved around making Joshua happy. He was just a single father who loved his son dearly. Gregory's entire character is one giant tear-jerker.You shouldn't be able to feel so sorry for the person responsible for almost everything bad that happened during the game. As if it weren't bad enough that everyone except Brown and Wendy dislikes Jennifer, the narration repeatedly referring to her as a "poor, unlucky girl" really nails it in how pitiable the protagonist is. Given that you're literally reliving Jennifer's childhood memories, this sort of tone is to be expected. The entire game has a very solemn and melancholic feel to it.Brown's fate should bring tears to the eyes of any animal lover.
