In fairness to Jacob, he was trying to warn you not to fuck the daughter of the senior staff at the school, in public. His warning had the desired result. He wasn’t trying to warn you not to fuck her incase you some how completed the ‘impossible task’ and wound up banging her mum. That didn’t cross his mind.
I agree it can be a cheap trick, but I only think it’s bad if it’s really noticeable at the time. With Sage and Jade I think there were reasonably subtle hints throughout and Jacob’s warning didn’t stick out in the moment.
I don’t think Jade’s surname really matters, (does it?). The game doesn’t hide she married to Stephen. If we had the same cutting of Sage’s surname that would be a bit silly.
Good catch on Derek and Tommy, he even could have added an extra word or two without blowing the secret on that one.
The ‘Marion‘ one is interesting. Since the MC is reading if it’s revealed the name is there and he knew it and it matters, that would be terrible writing. Would be better to have a full stop there I think.
Used to have a lot of time for Jade. Then she reacted like a child when MC sends her the breakup text. Like, bitch, did you think this 19 year old kid was going to stop living his life for your married ass?
