That's what really bothers me too.
I think it's great that L&P is now starting to give Sophia some action. But because he always treats the events in such a way that they could stand on their own without any connection to other routes/events, you always have the feeling that the overall story is being pulled out of the tree with a chainsaw.
First the shameful and guilty self-reflection just 8 hours before, after the Dylan event, and then apparently quite easily, Sophia gives herself to a man she has only met for the second time.
Sophia cheats on her husband in public and in front of her daughter.
I'm annoyed with myself that it bothers me so much. This is actually a porno, but a little better connection between the events would improve the whole thing considerably for me.
I think L&P abandoned the cohesive story as he pushed further into event driven story updates.
Everything that happens now seems to happen in an AWAM universe where stories are generally independent of each other.
Sophia gets taken to an orgasm by Sam, gives Dylan a hand job and in the next update, perhaps fingerbanged by someone she only met once before - and in front of her daughter, all in the span of less than 2 days.
Will there be any introspection by Sophia, wondering about how she got herself into this situation with Sam and Dylan, all while making out with Tyler and, perhaps getting fingered on the way?
I doubt it, based on the lack of introspection in prior events.
I agree - we need
some introspection from the 'wife and mother' about the choices she has made and the different males/females she has been intimate with - but there is nothing.
As time goes on, this disconnection between events will dilute the AWAM story even more, turning this AVN into a series of porn shorts and fully abandoning a story with interconnected characters who react to what is taking place around them and with whom.
L&P has the perfect confidant for Sophia - her Sister Patricia. She could be the person that Sophia calls and confides in about what is happening with various men and women, her confusion and disappointment with Liam, and her needs as a woman. L&P could make sharing part of this conversation with the reader integral to each day - but that takes planning and a level of diligence that L&P has been lacking in for a while.
I actually have little interest in the next update - my canon choice was Dylan persuaded Ellie to kick Logan the cheater to the curb - so the next update I have any investment in will likely land sometime in the late summer.
Cheers!!
