Advice

You think about it for a while, Is Michael aware of the changes for some reason? He did notice that Vera changed, but with the way reality changes, you might have missed a detail that hinted at her change, like the old posts on the forum.

You're now noticing that the situation might be somewhat bad, Michael learned of your power, and you kind of avoided explaining why you used it in the first place, you might have a reason but it might look unreasonable to ruin someone's life over it. Now that you attain your goal, it seems pointless, yes she was a bitch, but maybe you could have just let her alone?

Nah, what is done is done, you should concentrate on the future, you'll have to talk with Michael this weekend, you'd also like to go on a date with Jessica, you haven't talked to her much and she's now part of your harem, even though she was a speedy addition.

You send her a text, and she responds a few minutes later, you plan a date for next Monday.

"Okay kids, have a nice holiday, and once again Merry Christmas." The teacher leaves as your final class of the day finally ends.

As you're leaving, Penny joins you.

"John, it's rare for us to be together just us two..." She says while playing with her hair.

"Where do you want to go?" You see her smile as you propose to go out together.

"We can go for ice cream! And we can walk in town..." She enumerates her many ideas and you decide to go along with it.

---Later---

You're walking down a wide street full of local shops, ice cream in hand and Penny holds your hand sweetly.

"Penny?"

"Yeah?"

"During our last date... You told me you trusted me right?" Sweat slowly runs down your neck.

"Yeah, I do."

"I told you I had a power and you just... accepted it, isn't that weird? If you really trust me, shouldn't you ask me questions about it?"

"John, I know you, you're just a big baby!" She looks at you with a big smile and you don't know how to process that coming from Penny.

"What...?"

"If I started asking you details I'm sure you would stress out to **** trying to explain things... And that would certainly have broken the mood..."

"You sounded very calculative right now..."

She giggles. "You know, John, if you want to explain your troubles to me I'd be happy to hear them. I know I might be childish sometimes, but I'm a good adviser."

"Right. Maybe I should tell you the details..." You think about it for a moment, and having an adviser might be useful.

You tell her everything, well apart from Vera's case, and maybe you smooth a few things to look less guilty, you did actively add Kana and Jessica to your harem after all, Penny listens quietly, she tries to stay neutral but you can see that she disapproves some of your actions.

When you're finally done, you wait for her to give a reaction.

"I'm disappointed."
