>The issue is, how would she not notice the paradox?
A couple of observations:
1. Taeshi has not demonstrated much intelligence in her storytelling thus far. I think we can all agree there are a multitude of obvious problems she seems oblivious to. Half of BCB's ironic appeal is in how Taeshi finds new ways to fuck up the narrative. Easy case in point: Paisy. What a fucking awful ship, on so many levels. Yet look at how Taeshi keeps treating it like this beautiful example of two predestined lovers finally realizing who their true soulmate is.
2. Her core audience has proven, time and time again, that it will happily gulp down whatever horseshit-laden swill Taeshi pours down the slop chute. This has reassured her that consistency does not matter and, thus, any passing fancy (ex. Mike slamming Paulo's head into the table) can be indulged without fear of ruining the story. This is wrong and dumb but very appealing.
