List of things that Laura does without permission from MC:
Sure I get what you mean about the linearity of the game, still it could be implemented differently with the player as an instigator instead of cuck witness.
Look it all comes down to taste and opinions, I'm not discrediting yours but some stuff you said, is factually incorrect.
Yeah that is how I feel about some of the interactions, to me it feels more NTRish in many of them and ruins the vibe.
You can do what you mention about going behind your back if you give Laura freedom to do what she wants, so if you like to play that way, you should be ok.
