Well the funny thing is, I think that part is not very well written:
Yeah maybe at that momnent she was far more like the pimp than the succubus. Let her fuck this right up and I can swoop in when he leaves her...*shrugs*
Don't get me wrong, Mia only protested strongly in words, in the end she also kept her mouth shut like a good girl. But I still think there is a noticeable difference in how they are approaching it. One says don't count me in (washing her hands), the other says we will support you (roping the other in). The logical conclusion in that convo for Anna, should have been don't count me in either. She does the opposite. It's just weird to me.
Try punishment path act 2 choice 2 it is actually the only good one from all the paths in act 2.
A very rough first iteration of the Damien convo. She wanted MC to accept her whoring herself (to whatever extent she did), because it was in their mutual benefit and because it was irrelevant to her love from him. There is some very intentional wording in that convo, that I don't think it's written this way on accident. Nor the fact we don't see how it starts. She didn't want to keep doing shit behind his back, which she was all those weeks. The invite was easing into it.
And she 'conveniently' forgot to msg the MC to tell him where they would be....
No, I think that's the only truthful thing she said in the aftermath
I think the laugh is very important, though could maybe be put down to being among people she knows for some time now and trusts. When did she laugh with Jarrad? That's not trust/long term friendship....Both of these are kind of important points, especially the laugh
She laughs when she gets groped in the closet while falling from the ladder.
This was my reply to Deviant in case anybody was wondering:Can't sleep, so I went and replayed my favourite part of act 2, the KW.
I think I made a post before on how Lacey actually laughs out loud if MC asks about raves.
"All four of the girls laugh loudly and take a drink."
Even if no one ever heard Lacey laugh besides MC and Jared (yup another thing tainted)
M "You... you laugh?"
M "I've never heard you laugh."
L "I've never laughed with anyone but [MCFirst]."
L "And only when we're alone."
=============
"Everyone had a nice laugh, well except for Lacey of course."
=============
MC "You laughed again."
L "I just imagined you actually doing that and I couldn't help myself."
MC "That's twice in one day."
MC "That's never, ever happened."
=============
But now I am also concerned about this:
How can the pimp say this about dick nicknames:
M "Oh c'mon, I thought for sure she had nicknames for yours."
M "I mean she always used to..."
M "I just assumed... she still did that."
When in act 1 she says this?
M "Uh, you know she tells me everything right?"
M "I know things no girl should ever know."
M "Like exactly how your dick tastes."
M "In detail."
You know about the taste but not about something so trivial as a nickname?
Malicious intent or a bit of lack of attention to details maybe due to a rushed delivery?
Both of these are kind of important points, especially the laugh
EDIT:
Thanks to CrysusPariah2 my curiosity has been sated.
The pimp might have overstated and lied as usual.
M "You know how sensitive guys are about the size of their dingus."
L "[MCFirst] doesn't have dingus. He has a schlong."
M "Wait what? You never told me that."
L "Because you'd constantly be making awful jokes about it."
L "So, I conveniently never brought it up."
M "I can't actually argue with that."
So maybe even the "dickname" could have been conveniently omitted.
I was getting wound up over nothing, BUT the laugh still stands!
I would attribute this to group generalisation.
I will say that Lacey tells Mia that she laughed due to it being a nervous laughter. I took it like she was very uncomfortable because she was trying not to blow her chance at "the job". Maybe a future Act will expand on that, but it's not really talked about besides Lacey telling Mia about it
