I'm currently playing a new run that I hadn't tried till now: chick affinity, interested in Maya, but not in Josy and going directly for the friendship route with both in episode 4, in the hope that at some point a solo route with Maya will open up.
Anyway, I'm in episode 3 at the moment. Previously, in episode 2, I lost the cum-petition on purpose (again, this is an option I had not explored before). Well, now I've got to that scene after one short free roam event where Maya and the MC are lying on the ground outdoors and exchange a kiss when Derek suddenly stops their fun. And this time around, the motherfucker says this to her sister:

Fucking Derek.
So, an advice... if you want the solo route and want to get sure it will work out... star over again.
If you choose "friendship" you pretty much closed the door. Kinda obvious right?
Yeah you will still have some Maya scenes, but in ep10 the door will be kinda shut. Same goes for Josy.
So... whats the way to go for that?
DONT fuck Josy in ep 2... DONT get the lewd scene in episode 3 with Maya. Just.... stay at the party for example, or dont help her with the HOT-List.
It seems kinda odd, but it makes sense... cause if you do serious lewd things with them, they want to be with the MC. But you dont want that to get on the solo route, you want only Maya... To achieve that, go for "more" at the end of episode 4, if you didnt fucked Josy and didnt had the nearly sex scene with Maya in ep 3, they will reject you.
But you are on the path now to engage the solo route. Follow Maya during the party at ep 5, and tell Derek that you have feelings for her. Later in ep 7 visit maya and give her the TV... and thats about it. Maya Solo path should be moving forward and the scene with her in ep 10 will be very different (nothing serious yet, but its pretty obvious where things will lead in the future)
If you choose to be friends... well, you will exectly get that. They talk about the feelings, but dont let them lead to something.
Its not for sure that the solo path is closed if you choose to be friends in ep 4, but it very much looked like it, and would make sense too. If you go the way i did, its 100% sure that the solo path is achieveable... its just obvious...
Same goes for Josy too, just... go for josy in ep 5 and 7.
