I don’t really see how it’s logical for Dark Edwin to hook em up for any reason. To keep Veronica under his thumb?
Money? Abel and the blonde pocket ass calculator, Chuck, and August. All have money and with cash flow from any of those 3 would support Veronica’s gym if he wants to stay in her sphere and influence her.
Muscle? Warren and Jacob are trained fighters. So far Samson uses his muscles for looks and sex rough play.
if it’s just sex, humiliation, and dominating Veronica. Side with Kathleen and help with the business. Play it so V loses the competition and everything. It wouldn’t take much to make her a permanent fixture of the club. He can be bffs with Samson and let her rail her at the club if that’s what you mean by coupling them up?
There’s just no way I can see Edwin go, hey V… do me a favor and ride off into the sunset with Damson because of power of friendship.
Power, money, or respect that Dark Edwin is going for. Samson is the weakest choice by far for a logical dark Edwin to side with by pairing Veronica up with him.
You seriously do not get the intention here, neither for grey moral nor a dark Edwin, sorry! Three misses when it comes to reasons in your post alone.
I tell you the reasoning behind it. In my main "grey hat" Edwin playthrough he is nice guy, wanting to help others, but he does not intent to save the whole world in one go, he can make hard choices if he must. In that playthrough Veronika is really an annoyance, but no one should suffer under the sadist old hag that Kath is.
So to get her out of his hair and give the metaphorical middle finger to Kath, Edwin will try to couple Samson and Veronika up. Samson is often a prick, but he is still majorly crushing on Veronika, despite her decking him. As said, Veronica should have had simply shot him down, not hitting him, at that time Samson was on best behaviour. While what he then did is a total dick move, it is partly understandable, since he tried to be nice and got hit. This old event is another evidence for Veronika´s two biggest flaws: being too stubborn and prone to rash, unthinking decisions.
While Samson would certainly have tried again to flirt and get her, giving him a simple turn down would have been far better for Veronica, since then Samson would not have began to plan revenge.
Anyway, I try to keep good relations with both Samson and Veronika in the hope one day we get the option to couple them up.
1) You get Veronika out of your life and Samson will certainly be and stay friendly. No one knows when that might come in handy. (e.g. helping Mina getting into cinema movies or talk about Hana and band to some music guys he certainly will know)
2) If the two are together they will find a solution for the gym to survive. Coincidentially it might also deny "Camp Lesbo Gym" coming into existence.
3) longbowman salute to Kath, because with the gym or at least Veronika´s life in other waters, Kath cannot keep her in PC. But then again, I fully intend to help Abel and Sophia bringing down Kath, so she will not have a say in PC anymore. But the thought counts.
4) Samson will learn about the wise punchline "Beware your wishes, you might get it". While I think the two could become longterm under the right circumstances, Veronika is still herself. So stubborness and rash hipshot decisions will be pop up with some regularity. That is one reason why I do not push for continued communication with Veronika even on my "white knight" playthrough. Complete no go, I had the dubious pleasure to know a person with traits like Veronika.
