Besides, in these kinds of games sexualities are often technicalities that are easily ignored. Eva has the very typical "straight until you bang a chick" and "lesbian doesn't count for cheating" attitudes to f/f pairings so I don't really see any limits besides how much any character interacts with another. Alison, Minerva and Cherry would surprise me as bi options simply because they don't really interact with Lena.
Yeah, EK definitely leans into the 'woman are like spaghetti, straight until wet,' worldview.

Oh, and then there's a more generic problem I see with a lot of visual novels, and that is the "we need to talk about the sex we had"... I'm like, "who in the hell does that in real life?! I never did!". Whenever I see that starting up in a VN I roll my eyes and think "Oh no, not again! NO YOU DON'T NEED TO TALK!" LMAO... what is it with VNs and their need to have a serious talk after a quickie with a fuck buddy?? I don't know about the rest of you, but I didn't sit down and have a serious discussion after each hookup. LOL

I have thought about creating my own visual novel and adding in some humour into it. Like when someone wants a serious talk and then have the *DEV* suddenly comment with something humorous. I even had the idea that a character would avoid something common and annoying and not do it then have the a *DEV* comment appear where he says "someone's getting an extra orgasm in the next scene" ;)

Which scenes are you refering to? If its just a hookup, it usually isn't much of a deal. If its the start of a romance, then that question often leads to several options (Heart option, staying casual, ending the relationship).

Quite a few people talk about things they've done out of impulse or otherwise, after they've done them. Including having sex. I don't really see anything weird about it, even if that didn't happen to you personally.

Isn't there a difference between a one night stand and fwb or whatever it's called? So, it's logical you won't talk about sex with the person you fucked only once and don't want to again and it's logical to talk about sex with the person you have regular sex with.

If you have sex with someone you weren't planning on having sex with (because of drink, drugs, impulsivity, or someone hitting on you quite aggressively out of nowhere) then having a conversation afterwards is generally a good idea.

It doesn't need to be a deep conversation but a little 'So are we dating now?' or a 'Do we want that to happen again?' or a 'That happened, how do you feel about it?' can be really useful in clearing the air and letting everyone know where they stand.

Porn games are full of impromptu sex... it wouldn't be realistic if women afterwards didn't pull the 'So... what... *are*... we?' breakfast conversation gambit.

Well, it never happened in my life. When I first met my wife, and when we first had sex, it was totally out of the blue, she was single, her fiance up and left her and we were just good friends. One day she showed up at my door and we had sex on the spot. I don't know what prompted it, and we never did talk about it, and we were married a long time.

I had sex with my wife's older sister (before we were married or dating), I walked with her to her friends place, and we got drunk, and smoked some weed, ended up at my room. I was doing the gentleman thing and was going to let her crash on my bed and I would sleep on the floor, only when I came back from the bathroom, she was in bed, covers pulled back and legs spread. Fucked her, never talked to her about it for the rest of our lives, though I did tell my future wife about sleeping with her sister before we got married (told her about everyone I ever slept with, so you know, no surprises)... I'll never forget that as my wife couldn't stop laughing at the thought of it. I slept with a childhood friend I grew up with, a random hookup when I was visiting relatives in town. No conversation about it to this day. I met a random woman on the street one night while sitting at a bus stop really late. went home with her for a coffee, ended up drinking booze and messing around with her. No conversation at all.

Maybe I am the exception to the rule, but I have just never had that happen. I see it far too much in visual novels and find it pointless. When I see them mention "I need to talk to her about what happened" and I am like, "WHY?!" LMAO... ah well. <shrug>

I think you are the exception to never talk about it. It doesn't have to be involved, or soul-bearing, but even a "That was fun, we should do that again" can put the ball in their court to either agree, or discuss it in more detail. Also, just as an AAR it's good to communicate. Find out what the other person likes, dislikes, etc.

You need to work on your communication skills, clearly.
