I'll drop my 2 cents on the whole Skylar business.
I don't believe it's that hard for us to understand why she'd "suddenly" take a break especially after seeing how the old man (aka the dad IMO) operates. Although not confirmed yet, to me that sudden message is proof that Skylar got "called" by (hopefully) the old man and is now on her own mission. (
I say hopefully because of what was revealed in this update with Darci's mom)
I also speculate that Luna knows about whats going on and tried to steer away from the situation since she probably got involved with either the old man or the shady people that are so interested in MC just like our crazy cookie did (even if she's now bonking them).
Also, if people are correct and all of those tattoos take longer than a week then that also reinforces the fact that the Skylar we know is "gone" for now and we pretty much banged a future/alternative Skylar. (
Which means that Skylar cucked herself out of her first time with MC
.... well at least in MC's eyes since he thinks this is his first time with Skylar
)
Now people assume this is a Skylar from the future but if she is then this kinda creates a paradox (unless we meet Skylar in 99' and that's when she has her first) which makes me believe that the Darci/Skylar we saw are from possible alternative universes (explains why they're the same age).
I say alternative since, for all we know, this could be the "Original" Skylar we banged near the lake before that scene got removed. With this in mind I speculate that after the rework that universe continued without MC in it and that's why Skylar is so happy to see MC again.
I could also be wrong (which is a preposterous thought

) but that's the beauty of theorizing. And this game really allows us to theorize on most things that happen outside of our control.
