Valid points. As we get close to the end, I'm wondering what kind of person Sterling will become. He was motivated initially by familial love and protectiveness, but now it seems that he's essentially a champion of hedonism and free love (as long as other men aren't involved). I appreciate that he's gradually increased the dirty talk, but as you point out he still doesn't compare to Hunter in this regard.I know Sterling is supposed to represent a more loving/innocent type of sex, but goddamn we’re almost at the end of the story and it’s still tragic watching him fuck.
When Hunter’s on the scene, the guy drips pure lust into someone’s ear, making them confess their deepest depravities and give up everything for cock. It’s some of the nastiest, hottest smut on the site.
When Sterling's on the scene, it’s like watching The Big Bang Theory fuck. The dude is 14 inches deep in someone and he’s cracking puns like he’s waiting for the laugh track or woo-hooing like an idiot.
I think it stands out even more this chapter because the “innocent/loving” façade is falling off. He’s plowed every woman in the story now and had no emotional connection with over half of them. At this point, he’s just a fuckboy who can’t fuck (even if his magic dick makes anyone multiorgasmic).
Sterling's basically what Hunter could have been, if Hunter hadn't resorted to sinister methods due to his unattractiveness. Hunter basically has to be nasty to get women excited, while Sterling can rely on his good looks. In a way, the entire story is one long "bad end" for Hunter, now that we know he wasn't always hideous, and it begs the question how the women's feelings might change if Sterling became disfigured or something (which is sort of explored in some bad ends).
Sterling is also walking an ethical fine line, and playing with fire if people he's affecting don't share his philosophy. It's lucky for him that Caspian was a willing cuckold, otherwise Sterling's fears of revenge may have been realized. It's perhaps even more lucky that all the women eventually come around to his polygamous lifestyle, and don't feel possessive or threatened by the others.
I'm not sure how I want the story to end. I assume it's going to be a big happy harem where everyone fucks everyone (minus Hunter and possibly Drew), but I don't know how satisfying that would be from a narrative perspective. I assume the dev still has another plot twist or two planned, so I guess we'll see.
