I don't understand why there is such a godawful fuss going on in here about the nature and mechanics of this creator's story and its characters, especially the main character or "mc".
The way I see it, if true, at the end of this story we "hetero males" (you know, the ones who apparently statistically make up the majority of all players) will have, courtesy of this wily old creator here and his equally astute mc, achieved both the glorious and wholly unexpected conquest of fucking, not just one, but all three of the leading ladies of this story.
Should this perception be correct, can anyone tell me if there could possibly be any more heartwarming and satisfying an outcome to any tale such as this? If so, then please do enlighten us all.
Anyway, how do I deduce this outcome? Well, first of all, Amy (who isn't Claire's ex) and Katie are not lesbians are they. They are, in fact, "bisexual". This is a fact not lost, at least, on the mc, who, when his girlfriend asks if he would be interested in conducting an experiment in "open relationships" with Amy and Katie and ONLY Amy and Katie, sees a glorious opportunity to be able to fuck both of them himself...and from hereon in unto eternity too!! Not only that but in doing so with the express consent of his gorgeous girlfriend, Claire, risking absolutely no loss whatsoever (in fact the exact opposite) of the love or esteem that she clearly holds in her heart for him.
Admittedly, on the face of it, he will have to be seen to allow himself to be cuckolded by Claire, when in reality that is merely a means to an end for, in fact, he will very soon himself, will he not, in turn be cuckolding her? This then, given the prospective rewards, would surely for anyone of sound mind and body more than justify the apparent suffering of such an outrageous indignity (which it never in actuality ever was anyway).
Finally, with regard to the alleged wimpiness and resulting derision or repudiation received at least from some quarters here, this mc is, to me, a veritable Hero. A Hero of a kind. Many Heroes act to create the advantages that lead them to greatness, whereas many others, equally successful and lauded, are instead smart or cunning or astute enough to see and to grasp opportunities, if and when they materialise and which lead them on to the very same greatness.
For me, our Hero, being of the latter ilk, quietly and quick-wittedly takes his opportunity when it arises and surely therefore deserves every ounce of praise and kudos as the valiant warrior standing bloodied and unbowed on the battlefields of History.
(Admittedly somewhat melodramatic, but I wanted to end with a flourish).
