But you're overlooking the STATUS of the relationships here. While the relationship status between Layla/Elena and MC is a friendship, Alexis' relationship status with MC is a girl friend! And that's a big difference that you can also notice in the game. You can bet on this, if Layla or Elena's relationship status is girl friend, the other one will behave like Erynn! Definitely!!!
I'm not sure, for starters the "cold war" between Alexis and Erynn started before Gf status was confirmed... there's just a different vibe between the 2 friendships, Alexis and Erynn put the MC first while Layla and Elena(specially Elena) put their friends first.
Added to this the fact that Layla and Elena kinda seem into "experimenting" with each other.
Exactly. Layla seems to be ok to share MC with Elena. And Elena is happy too, with having MC and not breaking the friendship with Layla at the same time. And yeah, Layla & Elena kissing each other is additional clue. In train Layla was shocked when Elena kissed her, but in hot tub Layla took the initiative.

And being drunk just makes things simpler and helps to relax, while jealousy and understanding of what's going on don't goes away.
Layla is often seen making jealous faces(quite hillarious) if the MC is around other girls, but with Elena she's just cool with it, you grab her, rub into her, display sex positions with her... and nothing, complete trust.
Elena shows some jealousy of the MC making out with Layla, at times she does feel "third wheely"... but i think this can be turned around.
Drinks help things flow(a lot) but they don't put desire into you, just make you more willing to indulge what you already want.
the question was whether she minded stripping in front of the MC! Yes, it does, the motives behind it are initially irrelevant. Btw. we are here in EP 11! and that says a lot...
That one i agree, she's slowly opening up, but still quite shy, even in the most recent one she's mixed signals all over...
Let's go in the shower+
But i want to keep my panties-
I'll remove them+
but you have to stare at the wall-
All showing that opening up is an ongoing proccess for her, not flipping a switch.
It does make her happy when she learns that she "inspires" the MC and the many compliments he makes.
So there's that for liking being a muse.
