Getting back to the story of the game...
I'm wondering if the discussion about the magazine will lead to some kind of acknowledgement from Sophia that Dylan will 'enjoy himself' to her pictures.
Sophia has accepted and even permitted the young men in her life to think about her when they get off (Sam, the Myers boys, 'half the boys in her class') in recent events.
Plus you could say it's fits a narrative through-line on the Dylan Route:
- First Sophia hears Dylan muttering in the dark in his room about touching her butt.
- Then she finds Milf magazines in his bedroom drawer.
- There's the very memorable scene in the changing room at the beach.
- The night the hot water went out, she catches Dylan 'enjoying' her reflection from the shower.
It's not exactly a monumental leap in their relationship, but it could be the instigating factor in them both openly acknowledging that he is sexually attracted to her - which feels like it would be a pretty big threshold to cross.
