To me, in that scene she reacted confused and doesn't know how to react with his advances because she doesn't immediately registers what's happening.
But you probably see/read it different than I intended it to be.
Just like I've probably read something different what you've actually intended.
Happens. If I offended you with that, I'm sorry!
You dislike drama, I quite like it. Well the drama of other people that is. (yeah, I'm a bad person).
It let's me forget my own.
I cleared up the guy thing, no point keeping on. tl;dr it's not an ex thing it's a lack of trust for all involved.
You didn't offend me, sadly it takes a lot to offend me, sadly because people try and while I love banter it soon turns to insults and I prefer funny banter to pathetic insults.
I agreed with your last sentence because I have no reason to dispute it.
I don't dislike drama, I dislike too much drama. If drama outweighs everything else.
I'll use Erynn, it's easier to explain by example. Now we had some time to know her and know she was interested in him and we got close while looking for answers to what happened years earlier. We expected to get closer, get to know her and that would be cleared up instead she's still "with" the guy that tormented him without saying anything, which above all else makes her a really shitty friend, and then there is the shifty side with the VIP area.
It's hard to get to know someone on the grounds of potentially dating when you can't trust them.
I don't know how it's going to be handled here but for me personally I would have nothing to do with her until she figures her own stuff out. Until she knows what she wants it's impossible to even consider dating nevermind a full on relationship.
"We knew each other years ago" is not good enough grounds to build a relationship on and she hasn't shown any reason why I should give her a chance.
That's my problem with drama, it needs conclusion or it's just depressing and I know conclusion is a long way off which leaves at least 1 potential love interest treading water until whatever is going on is tied up.
The past 5 episodes have seen the good outweigh the drama but this was a drama dump with no way of knowing if anything good will come of it.
I love a happy romantic ending but this game has had a very slight grim undertone with bits of drama here and there but always with the prospect of getting to know the girl and that happy ending. Now that grim undertone is quite loud and it's left me questioning if a happy ending is in sight or is it bitter sweet or is it just going to be a massive shotgun to the feels.
Drama is fine if you know there is light at the end of the tunnel. The tunnel here is very, very dark is all.
