A coordinator at the incel’s workplace suddenly gets fired, and the dissonance between the kind of person she is versus how easily he opens up to her makes him worry about his inner B.S. filter that he has grown to count on, making him question his taste in women as a whole.
From what he gathers through eavesdropping, she is a pathological liar who says whatever she needs to say to get on people’s good sides and advance her agenda. She applies to the company with alleged experience as the manager of a fast food restaurant, but is later discovered to have never held any leadership positions at all. She also tells him in the break room one day after a bit of small talk about careers that she wants the same career he did, but from what he hears from others, she always parrots people’s interests in conversation, so he can pretty much discard any rapport he built with her over this. The last he hears is that she is fired for stealing money from a register.
Now, that would be all well and good, if it wasn’t for the fact that the incel has positive feelings about her, and genuinely considers her a friend on a good day. Ideally, he would have a perfect discriminator in his mind that would let him sift through people and instantly put up some red flags the moment he encounters someone as ethically inconsistent as her, but somehow, she passed under the radar.
The incel counts on his virgin energy to weed out all of the emotionally unstable and useless women, but apparently he’s not as impenetrable as he thinks. Here, it is just casual talk in the break room, but he could easily see this friendliness become emotional vulnerability under the right context.
