The weird route dialogue where susie tells kris that even if she and noelle become a thing their friendship is still incredibly important to her is gut wrenching. she always has been thinking about about kris's feelings, but she doesn't want to get all sappy about it, so it takes kris being visibly distressed to say anything about it, she really worries about them...
Seeing how they distanced themselves from Noelle in spite of how much they still care for each other, makes me think the same might happen with Susie with all their guilt and self-hating. Our secretive little gamer will only engage in self-sabotage and is probably treating the good times they are having as something that'll inevitably end.
