As I said in a previous post, but to elaborate further, Mikaila only serves three purposes:
1. Mediate between Liliana and her pet or interact with Bunny to mediate between her and G or her and Liliana.
2. Act stupid and kinda clingy so that Liliana can look down on her for "comedic purposes". When they were walking some street and Mikaila was suddenly concerned Liliana would leave her for a stupid joke, which doesn't sound very healthy to me, and when Mikaila was so dumb she didn't understand when Liliana was proposing them live together. This includes being a doormat that doesn't even react more than with a look of surprise at being insulted and can't defend herself.
3. Be there like a good little pet that loves Liliana, but with whom Liliana never has to do anything. In reality we know is likely that Liliana pays her some money behind the scene, but in the comic there is nothing of that. Besides offering her live with her and kiss her on that damn couch, they don't do anything as a couple. They don't go out on dates just the two of them, they don't give presents to each other, they don't have those little rituals that couples have when living together, they don't even have especial petnames besides maybe "sweetie" or something generic like that. You'd believe Mikaila was nothing more but a roomate that sometimes is there but most of the time isn't. Her only reaction to Liliana bringing a hybrid thing and claiming now they were going to raise her was to be happy for Liliana, as if it wasn't going to mean any huge responsability for her too but that would meant stop being a doormat so they can't haver her thoughts of her own.
If my fiancee decided to portray me like that I'd be pissed. The fact that Mikaila is allegedly fine with this doesn't matter, it's still not a very flattering image to showcase a real human being that Liliana supposedly loves. It's dowright insulting that at this point Bunny has more of a personality and prevalence than Mikaila. If this is how Liliana thinks healthy looks like, then no wonder she thinks the universe where her version is on a happy and estable relationship where they do go out, where they have shown more chemistry and commadery in a single panel than Mikaila and Liliana have ever shown, is the cursed version.
Edit: I looked into the comic to find the reaction of Mikaila to make sure and found out Ginger didn't even found out about the hybrid thing until she saw it on the tabloids. What kind of girlfriend lets that happen? I understand the character was on a "tech-free" event, but Liliana shouldn't have recieve her when she came back? Leave her a message? Something instead of letting her know that way?

It's like Liliana in the comic likes to neglect all her partners, not just Mikaila. I thought only Lizzy did that, interesting.
