Very good details there, and mostly agree with all you said, but I miss something in your post.

For me, one pretty "explicit" potential clue of future content could be the "high five" scene in the coffee shop between the ungloved Luna and Annie. That triggered some kind of vision: "Luna's gaze shifts between the two of you, then down to herself, and her cheeks burn with a deep flush."

For me, Calypso and Alex is more or less a given at this point, this clue will result on Luna and Annie, but that will leave Penny and Dalia as the remaining partners, and that is a complete no-go give the big P stance on incest content. Another possibility is Alex going with Dalia as they're already bff, which will leave us Calypso and Penny without "pairings", and I dont see Calypso and Penny going at it together... or does them?

Yeah, they're left as kind of the awkward default. I had expected Nova/Penny and Nancy/Caly to be the pairings here, which in my head seem fairly justifiable. Not that Nancy really has any connection to Calypso, but they've both got very royal energy and all; one's a princess, the other an empress, and they're both used to being in charge. Perhaps we'll see all of the more "expected" threesomes in a second round of them, or perhaps they'll be more staggered; it's entirely possible one character gets two before another gets their first, just like in OIALT, to keep it from feeling formulaic.

I also was definitely expecting a Nova and Penny scene before I saw Nova and Nancy scene. Because I was speculating under the assumption that there will be only one threesome scene for each LI, I didn't include them.

I don't agree with any of your statements. I don't think SPOILER tag should be solely used for spoilers. I don't think you can omit using them when there really is one, because the update is a bit old. I don't think you should be the one to decide what I share or not.

It's just hard to take you seriously is all.

Who fucking cares? Let the man write guys. Maybe start a new thread just for threesome permutation predictions based on thin air?

Well... Predictions are about 80% of the content in this 2266 pages thread, related to threesomes or not. It's a funny and engaging exercise while we wait for the release to drop. No need to be hostile

We will see only one threesome scene for each LI

As you say, the rest of your theory pretty much hinges on this assumption, and I don't believe it's justifiable. And there are a few directions I could go with this, but let's start with Annie.

I likewise suspect an Annie/Dalia threesome is going to happen, just based on Annie's admiration for Dalia's ass--not discounting the other reasons you give, but that's what suggests it to me.

But reconsider what happened at the cafe: Annie gives Luna a high-five, whereupon "Luna's gaze shifts between the two of you, then down to herself, and her cheeks burn with a deep flush." OK, what do we know here? Well, we know she saw a vision of Annie's future, because that's how her power works. We know that whatever she saw is going to happen, because again that's how her power works. Assuming she isn't later lying to MC, we know it also involves her and MC--which we could pretty well surmise given her reaction. And again assuming she isn't later lying to MC, we know what she saw wasn't bad.

So, putting your "one threesome per LI" assumption aside for the moment, with which scenario is "Luna's gaze shifts between the two of you, then down to herself, and her cheeks burn with a deep flush" more consistent: (1) she saw the three of you doing something sexual together, or (2) she saw the three of you doing something nonsexual together? I won't say it's impossible for her to have reacted this way to the second, but I think the first is far more likely--particularly when you know MC is or will be having sex with all of them anyway. Meaning this is a clue.

Or there's Nova. Nova/Nancy has already happened. But she and Penny had talked (before MC had sex with either of them) about sharing MC. Not seriously, of course--or at least, not entirely seriously--but certainly clearly enough to constitute a clue. And definitely a clearer clue than "Nova thinks Nancy has a sexy voice."

And this in turn gives us two possible outcomes: (1) among the actual clues are lots of red herrings (in fact, some of the most direct clues* are red herrings); or (2) the "one threesome per LI" assumption is incorrect.

*If we know that everyone gets a threesome, and we believe in any kind of foreshadowing at all, two LIs talking about sharing MC has to be as direct a clue as it gets.

Do you think there would be lesbian scenes before threesome scenes for some of the characters?

Not particularly. Aside from Annie thirsting over Dalia none of the girls have really shown any genuine sexual interest in each other, and again on a meta note it doesn't seem to be Cari's style to give the girls sex scenes all on their own. I think any romantic/sexual interaction between the girls is likely to be performative for Orion's benefit.

I think that would be added only if a huge majority of the patrons asked for it, which is unlikely. Otherwise, the time between releases is too big for the dev to afford this luxury.

Maybe a scene starts with girl-girl action but Orion definitely fucking lol. Alex/Dalia combo seems to be most likely for that

Nah, I don’t see it happening either. Like others mentioned, I don’t think it’s really Cari’s style; he’ll probably handle it the same way he did with OIALT.
