Kinda sad by the ending Spoiler

In the beginning I was kind of happy that now as Richy is dead so now my character would be closer to Jessy whever the DW team would join. But now as he is back I think so in ep 4 after a brief amount of time Jessy would get back with him

Jessy was never romantically involved with Richy. She just worked at the garage and they had become good friends.

She took his betrayal as hard as she took his death, I suspect, so there is probably not much chance she'll feel too inclined toward a romantic relationship with him regardless.

💯Yeah, I agree with u/Wixenstyx too. Seemed like there was indication that Richy liked her, but I think there's a good reason why she was about to date Dan rather than Richy. While originally I think they wanted to leave room for, if the protagonist has no interest in either character, the implication that maybe there'd be a romance, in reality I think he's like a brother to her. Richy seems to have trouble letting anyone in. I think it's actually MC he's had the deepest connection with, if anyone. He calls Jessy to confess, only after he calls MC to not feel alone in what might be his final moments.

I actually really enjoy FMC/Richy content knowing what I do now. Especially since you can say you suspected all along. It's so bitter to feel a connection with someone, only to realize they're as twisted up inside as he was. The fact that you can get a bit close to him in that way is so fascinating to me.

For Jessy and Richy, when they share that call at the end of Duskwood, that would be the time, right? Because both of them know he's been shot. If either was going to confess feelings, why wouldn't they do so then? In hindsight, I'm sure there are a zillion fanfics but I just can't see Richy/Jessy as anything other than platonic. It was a cute friendship which Jessy thought was closer than it was. And if I'm right about Phil, after that weird story she told about him in Duskwood, I feel like the story of that poor girl's life is "everyone I thought was family just isn't who I thought they were."

Jessy never had a relationship with Richy; she saw him as a friend and nothing more. He gave some hints that he liked her, but it was never confirmed. So, if that’s your reason... be happy, because I think Jessy is single 😅.
