Molly MacCormack is part of the Main Cast of in Lessons In Love. Molly was the 11th girl to join Sensei's class, doing so in v0.7.0. She lives in Room 6 with Tsuneyo Tojo.
Background
Molly was born and raised in Ireland. There’s not a lot of information available from her past, though what is known is that she lost her mother at a young age and that she was heavily obsessed with Japanese culture and media, which culminated in her moving to Japan in an attempt to become a harem heroine. With her being transferred into Sensei’s class, she feels that she can achieve this.
Characteristics
Molly has a very energetic personality, which makes interactions with her hard for other people to get through. She’s heavily obsessed with video games and manga to the point where she uses a lot of terminologies and metaphors from them, and while this can be helpful in certain situations, like her role as a DM during D&D sessions, it makes everyday conversations confusing and hard to follow for some people, including Sensei. Her massive knowledge also makes her act as a trivia machine for Japanese and otaku culture.
Her obsession also contributes to her having problems during real life interactions. While she’s not completely inept, her perception is skewed by her life style to the point where she compares a lot of things to events in fictional stories, acts impulsive if she’s upset and lacks the ability to read the room. This is often seen with Rin, especially during her introduction, where she embarrasses her in front of the class, when she kissed her during the first Christmas event without her consent and while trying to prevent her from confessing to Otoha.
Molly can still be mature when the situation needs it. This is shown during her interactions with Rin while their friendship is on hold and her interactions with Sensei after the second Halloween party, where she uses next to no game language, does her best to take the feelings of the other into account and tries her best to resolve the situation by finding a compromise. Her experiences during this time seem to calmed her behavior down a little, though she’s still very passionate about her hobbies.
She also has a perverted side, but unlike Nodoka she’s only confident with it in fiction, because she can easily recite content of adult media and describe hypothetical scenarios like it’s nothing, but when any kind of real life intimacy comes up, even something as tame as being taught how to swim by Sensei, she becomes shy and turns bright red.
Her Irish background rarely comes up. She uses a few metaphors during the beginning, has a heavy Irish accent when she’s drunk and is knowledgeable about Irish myths and traditions.
Relationships
Sensei
Molly sees Sensei as the protagonist of her harem story, which resulted in his nickname ‘Herald of the Adolescents’. She usually acts formal towards him, even calling him ‘Sir’ most of the time, though she still uses a lot of gaming terminologies and allegories during their interactions.
While she doesn’t show any romantic interest towards him, she still likes him on some level, as she has a friendly relationship with him, confides in him with her troubles and threw herself into his arms a few times when she was sad. She was also really hurt by being ignored for two months, showing that she likes being around him. While they managed to resolve their situation, she still feels like their relationship is unstable and worries that he might abandon her again if something happens.
Tsuneyo
Tsuneyo is Molly's roommate. Molly took it on her to teach Tsuneyo about the world, but a lot of her explanations and interactions are influenced by her hobbies, which resulted in Tsuneyo copying a lot of her terminology and habits. Over time, they become close friends and are concerned about the well-being of the other.
Rin
Due to their shared interests and being co-workers at Koi Cafe, Molly and Rin are already close friends before the events of the game unfold. Molly has a huge crush on her from the moment she met her, which is why she noticed her cutting wounds and felt that something was off before she saw her in her depressive state, and finds her physically attractive, something Sensei learned accidentally. Sadly, Rin isn’t interested in her, a fact Molly struggles to accept.
During the second beach trip, their friendship reached a critical moment when Molly refused to let Otoha join during their D&D session out of jealousy and went to far when she tried to intervene her meeting with Otoha and forced herself on her. This resulted in Rin asking her to keep her distance from her. Their first meaningful interaction after this was during Normal-ish where she resigned as a member of the manga club, though she promises that they’re still friends.
Otoha
From the moment Molly learns about Rin's crush on Otoha, she is openly jealous of her and tries to get Rin on her side instead. During the winter trip at the beach, she even lashes out at Otoha, refusing to allow her playing D&D with her usual squad. This angers Rin, who demands Molly to apologize, but Otoha lets it go easily, as she's neither offended nor scared by Molly's behavior towards her.
