Let me rephrase: MC, Josy and DrPinkCake are telling us that Stephen Burke - the dude who holds the money - won't help Maya. It's crystal clear to me.
Well, I guess some people just won't listen to what the story is telling them because they don't like what they're hearing.
Man, there's a strong bond between Lynette (MC's mom) and the Royces: this is what Jill and DrPinkCake are referring to as her "destiny".
Anyway, Jill is not my favourite LI. Maya is my favourite one.
Same as above: I guess some people just won't listen to what the story is telling them because they don't like what they're hearing.
I don't get it.
What you're saying is not crystal clear at all.
Josy has a bad feeling because it just seems unlikely that Sage's rich parents (whoever they are, since Josy doesn't even know who they are), would just wave their magic wand and all her problems are solved. "Too good to be true."
The mc has a strange feeling when he walks into the joint and then it dawns on him; Sage is a Burke.
That's what happens.
You can interpret that as: Maya isn't gonna get help here, because Josy has a bad feeling and the mc is shocked when he realises who Sage's parents are. But that's got nothing to do with the mc speaking to us directly and referencing future events. He described his feelings at the time, and made the revelation to us as it unfolded.
My point, earlier on, was that the library scene was the only scene where the mc spoke with future knowledge:
mc: "But if I had known the real reasons to her tears..."
mc: "...and to her persona..."
mc: "I wouldn't have kissed her that night."
Meaning, the future mc is aware of Bella's problems, and he would have stopped the mc in that scene from kissing Bella.
Can you explicitly quote where the mc and/or Josy bring known material from beyond that scene into the context of that scene?
Because I can't see it.
Regarding Jill and her destiny. This quote from her:
Jill: "I believe it was destiny that made me lose my sister."
In that one sentence, to me, she cheapens her sister's life and death by making it all about herself.
To me, people who believe in that shit, are deeply flawed. If you believe in destiny, then you believe that whatever happened was destined to happen. When some sick fuck rapes and kill a kid, it was destined to happen. Who ordained that shit to happen?
Shit just happens. Some peoples lives have very little meaning and they are gone. Others rise to greatness. Some through luck, others through hard work.
There's no fucking destiny.
Remember, Jill is naïve as fuck. She has some retarded notions. This is just another one of those.
