what a FASCINATING guy. i just caught up on your explanation behind him and now it’s all clicking together and coming together and honestly i love that so much! both of these people are kind of perfect for each other actually and i mean that in the best way possible. (spoilers!) the fact that “silas” is fully taking advantage of the situation and continuously tests the waters to see what he can get away with, and the way he’s not even being that cautious either… whenever he slips up he just easily plays it off, but he’s not avoiding slipping up in the first place. and the fact that the protagonist is also just as equally selfish and shallow in their intentions (inviting this dude over right away but like this is your first day seeing him irl!) really drives it home. they’re so situationship coded…
also i loved the use of kinetic text towards the end to really help the situation pop! and actually in hindsight this guy is kind of really funny? he was like yeah whatever i’m going along with it and stuck it out for as long as he could. am i curious what could have happened in the ending where you call him out? absolutely. am i still very tickled pink by these two people who are made for one another? absolutely. this was such a fun game to play!
