If you've been trapped in perpetual limbo (heh) for gods know how long and the only person destined to save you and every other dead person trapped with you is instead living his best life and starting to stray far from what he was destined to do...wouldn't you be pissed?
Like anyone else, I'd definitely be, it's a logical sentiment, but I also wouldn't be a massive dick about it. Her being trapped in there and condescendingly pointing out how it's useless to explain that to a mere "mortal" doesn't help her cause, just like randomly appearing completely naked in front of that same "mere mortal" after the moral lesson she gave him doesn't and it only makes it
harder for the MC to focus on his mission.
There's a big difference between explaining something to someone, a young 20yo brat, of all ppl, IIRC, whose help you desperately need, and talking down to him like he was an idiot unable to comprehend to seriousness of the shit he found himself into. And the MC does get his dick wet on a few occasions, BUT he doesn't forget what his purpose is in the game and how he needs to help all those NPCs and her escape from that parallel dimension or whatever the fuck it's supposed to be.
A plausible reason would be that since they're undergoing a divorce then she might want to wash her hands on Alex and start anew, remarry herself into another rich family with no baggage. And given that Alex had been nothing but trouble to the family, then all the better that Cilla doesn't end up having to deal with her in the future (as the former getting into trouble might ruin the latter's future prospects or such).
Likely scenario right there. Well said. Trash like that only deserves the worst possible Karma and not an ounce of sympathy.
We don't know much about Cilla, yet. IIRC we've seen her just one time in the whole game, and there she was drunk af. Maybe you guys right... Maybe she is pure evil just like Will. But even though she was drunk she didn't say any bad thing about her daughter and Orion. If she was that evil, she would have demolished both of them while they were in Bardot's house.
Maybe it isn't as bad as I am thinking and Cilla could help against William in the future. And true she was quite drunk that one time. I just got the impression she did spite her daughter for not being obedient and presentable like her. Maybe Alex's disobedience is the root problem of at least some of the quarrels and conflicts between the two parents.
I am kinda seeing two options here. One is that Cilla could either be more rebellious against William through Alex's behavior and she is more envious of her freedom (which would be more towards your take I guess). Number two (more my take) that she blames Alex for failing to be the way her mother wants to and that Cilla resents her for causing more troubles than she's worth.
Lol, the amount of excuses some of you guys are trying to make to justify that cunt's lack of responsibility and not even half-decent parenting making her seem like a good person and mother, when Alex herself and basically a lot of other hints and things specifically stated in the story about her tell you it's the complete opposite of what you think is hilarious.
Is she worse that Baldy Willie ?? We don't know... most likely not, BUT any actual, responsible mother, who respects herself and deserves to be called one, would've taken her and her brother and run off to fuck knows where to get away from that toxic environment filled with rich, arrogant snakes and backstabbing, envious idiots, not stay there for the good life victimizing herself and blaming William and the 'high society' for her mistakes and her being a shitty excuse of a mother decades afterward. THAT is what a real mother would've done, not what that drunk cunt did, who's only interested in the Bardot $$$ and privileges that come with it. As a comparison, just pay attention to Nancy's character, a single mom of two with two other strangers, Annie and the MC, to feed and put a roof over their heads, and this 'misunderstood'
amazing human being called Priscilla with two kids of her own.
There's a difference of cosmic proportions between them, where Priscilla is the Andromeda Galaxy and Nancy's our beautiful Milky Way, and science teaches us it's not the Milky Way chasing after Andromed to do some freaky ass galactical Rated R hanky panky, it's the other way around, just like it is in our case.
Ironically, the presumption of innocence doesn't apply in this case, where the exact opposite needs to be proven, and only future updates can do that and either redeem or completely shit on her character.
