Question: how do you guys imagine a solo Josy route (or Maya, but that seems further off) developing? How will it come to life?
The solo Josy route is clearly teased a lot, with both her and MC frequently mentioning how much they care for the each other, even if they just remain friends. Likewise, we also see that Josy and Maya's relationship is rocky (if not on the throuple path), insinuating that a breakup is on the cards. A likely development would of course be that we continue to see these themes all throughout Season 3: Josy and Maya keep bickering, and MC and Josy keep sharing moments where they realize how much they like each other. This would be the foundation for the solo Josy branch.
However, I do see a large obstacle for this to work, namely what the implications would be for Maya. If Josy and MC were to date again, it would leave Maya in very strange spot, as they are her two best friends at B&R, who she spends most of her time with. How could they ever be friends again after that, especially when the relationship between them has already been subject to a lot of drama? If they can't, then what happens to Maya? How does she stay involved in the story, if her relationship with Josy and MC deteriorates?
Another possibility is that Josy is kept only as an ending option for MC, if not on the throuple, similar to how Ana was someone you could end up with in Acting Lessons, but not actually date during the story. I believe this would be quite tragic, but it would solve all the issues of dealing with implications for Maya.
What do you guys think? How do you imagine it going?
Side note: I notice that the conversation with Josy in Episode 9, after you take a picture with her and she asks MC if her still thinks about her, seems to set a variable "ep9_josy_wonder", at either 3, 2 or 1. Perhaps there will be similar choices in coming episodes, and if you go above a certain threshold by the end of Season 3, Josy's doubts about Maya become so strong that she cannot ignore them anymore.
