None of them are his manager. His ex works in a different department. So she's like the AD in that she's a higher ranking person but not someone he reports to.
I dunno, he's been pretty clear so far about not crossing the line with their relationship, and since she's clearly suggesting a more permanent arrangement than a casual fling, I can't see him ever casually accepting it. That would go against all of his characterization so far, imo. He's just...
Reads like an edited machine translation. The computer doesn't know the context/can't see the pictures, so it often gets basic things like pronouns wrong. And if you are dumbass editor who thinks AI is actually reliable, you might trust what it says over your own human judgment. Basically the...
