Maud got a role in the next releases.
there will be tough decisions, you can't always have a win/win.
then, some situations can be solved even if they seem desperate, others can fall at any moment.
I don't want to tell more or I have to spoil to much things.
As I said: all stories can connect to each other
About Michelle/ Yvette/ Randy... That scenario occurs if a series of triggers are activated (I think many will be in that situation). You will need to make choices
About Michelle relationship. The romance path needs sincerity. Loyalty for Michelle is not a problem if it's about sexual fidelity. She's willing to give the MC all the freedom that Mc needs, but she obviously wants the same freedom. That doesn't mean she becomes a bitch who fucks everybody, but if she wants to fuck somebody, she will.
So the relationship with her can be 1 just about sex 2 love and fidelity 3 love and freedom. However, she has very strict triggers for love and some mistakes will make that statistic go down a lot. This doesn't mean that you won't fuck anymore, but maybe you'll just be a fuck buddy and not the love of her life.
