If you read correctly, and I have no doubt, it's not about protecting Dylan anymore.
Sophia does it, now that she has seen what her son is capable of, so that he doesn't break Aiden's face.
I think we are entering the shift, Sophia no longer does it out of blackmail but out of necessity.
And maybe after, it will continue to: accomplish the tasks voluntarily. We'll see.
I'm not validating, Sophia becomes Aiden's bitch. I am only exposing one possibility.
Ah yes, I remember her last thoughts after the jog. She now knows that Dylan is now able to handle Aiden alone but not his whole gang! So this is now the "new" reason for her to continue with the tasks!? mmh... :unsure:

If I remember right Sophia asks Morello for the favor since Larry made her his "cumare".
What I am waiting to see is if you have a choice between picking Bennett or Aiden or can you pick both.
Yes, even if a way out from Bennet seems to have been laid out with Mrs Torres.
But no doubt Morello can be more... convincing ;)

Alyssa is tied to the Aiden route and maybe Zac as well, so dropping the Aiden route and you will lose Alyssa and maybe Zac too
I understand the concept of the blackmail of Sophia (And Alyssa) for protection of Dylan and Zac that is the 'reason' for the relationship. However, Since Sophia and Alyssa have a connection through the soccer team, the boys, through their shopping, through their coffee house, and through Antonio... Nyuk, nyuk nyuk. I see no reason why the author could not continue that relationship as the friendship it has been. Dang nab it you must be friends to 'go for a ride' first visit to her house right! I see Aiden as more of a distraction to that relationship not the cause. I would hope the author sees that opportunity as well but... stranger things ya know.;):)

we just hope this game is not turn out to be another "fashion business " games where the most erotic scene is through blackmail rape or without mc consent
Even though fashion business does technically have all this, it has never gone out of the way portrayed it in a disturbing manner. MC almost always engages in sex with consent even though she does not like it. She does because having sex with the person will give her an advantage or a better position to regain her power and move out of the dump not because she is being forced or has no choice

I would like to ask though how old is that mail, because from the way things are looking does she even need morello.

I asked about Bennett 4-5 days ago and he said that his events are totally optional and he only has max 2 events, with Aiden also he is planning to make it to make it completely consensual. Unless the easy solution itself is Morello on the next task, she won't need if him further for help since everything will be done by her willing for Aiden.
I had thought that Bennett only had only 1 event left where Sophia gives him her answer to sleeping with him.
As for Aiden and making it completely consensual for Sophia is an excuse that he has used so many times before.
So say Sophia agrees to the task but ends up being raped, will he come back with that same excuse?
Sophia has already been assaulted by the subway thugs,because she took the train instead of her car.
Aiden groped her in the art class.
The mail is old but I just don't trust the dev and think that he uses that excuse"Player has a choice" too much
I know that this is a dark outlook but in certain events you do lose choice

Definitely here L&P is sending a message that Sophia needs "bigger guns" to get rid of Aiden. And the only one capable is Morello. Quite bluntly put.
We should thank Liam for the Parker family's very useful new friends.

The problem is the timeline, as we know it is supposed to happen between 9pm and 10pm which where I live we call "evening" ;) Which would place the concert later than 10pm, on a school day. Not really realistic, as Liam and Sophia both mentioned that they don't want to be too late because they have work in the morning.
The fact that it is mentioned that the next day is a work day for the both of them I don't think is related to a matter of time, but how (and how much) they plan to have fun (get drunk like in the old school days). For example, see the evening of the Day 16, it was a weekday (Monday) and the next day Sophia had to teach literature, yet that didn't stop her from first going to the Casino with her husband and then dancing with Ellie and Patricia (the day ended at 01:55 and the next day she got up at 07:00 fresh as a daisy). Now, unless someone thinks that Sophia, at Sam's concert, might suddenly lose all those inhibitory brakes that have distinguished her so far and let her senses carry her off into a night of sex, drugs and rock'n'roll, I think the event could be fully compatible with the evening among friends that (with moderate alcohol consumption), could take place before Sam's show and still allow Sophia to end her day at a similar time as on Day 16.

It also depends on what "optional" means, because there could be 2 possibilities:
  1. the 4th task is not a choice at all, Sophia did all the things that needed to be done and gets the comfortable solution (e.g. from Morello) and the task is not even proposed, Aiden is "taken care of" (and goes "sleep with the fishes" ;) )
  2. there is actually a choice whether to go on with the extortion or choose the comfortable solution. In that case it becomes interesting the rationale that is given to choose to continue the extortion rather than the "easy" solution.
    Unless the comfortable solution comes with some "strings attached" (e.g. another visit to Larry or something else, always if the solution is given by Don Morello), and in that case she has to choose between the lesser of the two evils, and that would be simpler to be rationalized. But we go from one extortion to another
The 4th task is "likely" based on your choices during the 3rd task, Art Event. When you initially accept Aiden's task from the Wedding Dress event, you will not send Dylan to boarding school. The other choices are a willing participant or not one during the Art Modeling, which does not influence sending Dylan to boarding school. I think this is the solution in the 4th task to stop Aiden or not.

L&P has said it's not extortion or blackmail from the Morello's as it's a debt Liam and, unfortunately, Sophia is paying back. Plus, during the Filth path, and if you didn't choose to follow Sophia/Ellie's story, You would have the option to take Liam home or leaving him at the casino. This will allow you to stop Morello's story path.

Nice idea ,so maybe Sophia's breast(s) will pop out of her dress during class or she has to wear that g-string thing from the art class.
I doubt that he will repeat such events

I love to see some toys being introduced for the tasks in the class, like plugs or small vibes.

Another thing that we are I guess ignoring or maybe I'm wrong here but isn't it possible that we are on the Aiden route but Liam does not lose at the casino and Sophia brings him back home.

In this case they never met Morello so making him a solution can't be possible. There will be the route where Sophia is doing Aiden's tasks and never met Morello.
The solution has to be something else then.

This is not the ringing endorsement you may think it is. Is it too much to ask that we should have fewer games that put women into this position? Do we need games that set women up for unpleasant sexual encounters; and then justify it with flimsy logic to avoid accusations of rape? "She wasn't forced to fuck him, she wanted to get _______ and used sex as a tool to achieve it even though she hated every second of it and took no pleasure in the experience." Like, really? Do we really want Sophia to have unenjoyable sex that is coerced from her? But that's the problem with blackmail stories, right? Either the woman grows to enjoy it which breaks the tension, or she gets coerced into sex and the game finds any excuse to justify it as not rape.

None of this is meant as an accusation of you Sabertooth__ , you're just stating a fact. It's just super frustrating that this is a well known trope in adult games. It happens over, and over, and over again. Putting aside all the ethical implications, it's just lazy writing at this point. I hope AWAM does something new with Aiden, but I'm already wavering in my support. If we get a situation where Sophia fucks Aiden and we get nothing but shots if her unhappy face and inner monologue of her saying "it's ok that I chose this. I'm doing it for Dylan. I just need to get through this. I hate Aiden. I hate that this feels good. God I'm so sorry Liam." I'll fucking puke.

We need to check how far the two routes Morello and Aiden are connected.
If they are independent something else must be found to get rid of Aiden.

This concerns me with this storyline based on Aiden's background of being a criminal, his uncle, and other things. It's painted his image this way, and he is not a simple "bully" as others would like to think because they read the word "bully." Sophia even went to the police to file a blackmail report about Aiden. The cop even told her about Aiden and his gang activities and how it was almost impossible to influence the outcome with Aiden. She even mentions his gang activities during her thoughts in different parts of the novel.

If the comfortable solution is... Sophia stands up against him, after the reader chooses GW options during the modeling art scene, in that path, and Aiden backs down from the blackmail because Sophia took a stand. That, IMO, would be bad. This would be bad because that would destroy Aiden's character as Dev painted him. It will kill his story even if you went forward with it if you choose the filthy options. It would be like "the twist/deal" all over again.

And of course, these are my thoughts and speculations only.
I would see it less about destroying his character and more about Sophia establishing hers. That would be a good thing for the game.

From a practical standpoint, this branching path is going to cause a nightmare. If you end the Aiden path you're basically committing yourself to significantly less content in future updates. Not for one or two updates but for something like eight updates.

Yes they are independent, you can only get Morello if Sophia leaves the casino without Liam, either because she's tired or she goes to the club (which can only happen if she said she's not married to the sauna guys)
So you can have Aiden and Morello, or only one of the 2 paths.
