What do you guys and gals reckon Josy sees in Maya? Like why is Josy so into Maya in the first place? I don't see any chemistry between them at all.
On that note:
Cool relationships in the game:
- Bella and mc - It was just sex, but it was really hot sex.
- Derek and Ash - They were definitely cool together, I hope Anthony hasn't knocked her up!
- John Boy & Elena - They're like that couple that finish each other's sentences, totally know each other inside and out.
- Magnar and Sally - I don't know what just fucking happened with them in the last episode, but that shot when you ring Magnar for his services and he's holding her and she's looking up at him - he's a god!
- MC and Josy - They go so well together, that scene in ep8 at the gym, that's how young love should be, you fuck wherever you can get away with it!
- MC and Lily - Like she says, a DIK and a HOT rolling together, the two new up-coming stars of the houses. A good match.
- MC and Nicole - She's so fucking into him, it hurts!
- Neil and Lynette - Apart from her dying 9 months after he fucked her, I'm starting to like the dynamic between the two in her diary.
- Quinn and MC - The best part about the relationship is other characters starting to realise what's going on.
- Sage and mc - Best chemistry in the game right up to episode 6. It kinda went a little down hill after that, fucking rebound bs!
- Tommy and Heather - It's a fucking train wreck, but in a totally enjoyable way.
Not so cool relationships in the game:
- Dawe and Arieth - She's cucking the shit outta him!
- Jade and mc - She's thinking about how much she hates Stephen while she's fucking the mc.
- Jade and Stephen - Just get a fucking divorce already!
- Maya and Josy - They are too depressing together. The only saving grace was the diarrhoea shit joke.
- MC and Jill - It's so sterile! Hopefully after Tybalt got buried and they fucked it'll take on a new life. I wanna see her getting frisky with him at college. Considering she instigated their first time together, there's significant hope for her.
On the fence relationships:
- MC and Maya - There are some really sweet moments earlier on, but the throuple has just complicated it.
- MC and Zoey - Need more input!!!
There are other potential parings (mc and Riona, or mc and Sarah for example), but there's nothing really in these relationships, so I'll leave them out.
It seems to me that it is more a question of contrast or that the tree does not let you see the forest. The chemistry between Josy and the MC is automatic, you buy it as soon as you see it, it's like in acting, the role is well written and the actors add even more chemistry, it dazzles. The chemistry between Maya and the MC is built, it goes step by step, it's not instantaneous but it grows as the story progresses.
Josy and Maya on the other hand.... DPC doesn't throw their chemistry in our faces from minute zero, nor does it give us much time to see the construction... The flashback he showed barely gives us an idea, but very fleeting, and the anecdotes they tell tell tell us that the chemistry exists, but at the same time we know so much about the bad moments that it's hard for us to see how that chemistry works or worked.
It's hard to explain in words the feeling I have at this point, but, just by watching the conversation between Maya and Josy alone when Josy arrives at B&R, it shows love, and I doubt that situation would happen without chemistry.
And I'm interested in commenting on Zoey's part, which so far is only a memory without interaction, which leaves us only with the partial vision of the MC... who on top of that is not even clear what she was for him... there are many points to explore, not only chemically, but in history, in possible retcons, in drama, in fun or why not, she can still be simply the person who knows the MC better not included Neil.
