possible spoilers but bear is so goddamn selfish. when he got the extra wishes he didn't ask for nikki to regain autonomy, but to love him as a friend. still forcing her to feel positively to him, removing her choice and absolving himself of all consequences
@_sohnjae and the fact he was too much of a weenie to end it. the only reason he did is bc Nikki wished for him to love her as much as she loved him. i would even argue he never loved her at all
