Romance means opening yourself up to someone you can never fully know - a vulnerability that can be as wonderful as it can be dangerous.
There's no saying the "right" thing to safely win someone's heart in Scarlet Hollow, because everyone has their own motivations.
very romance centered series to begin with unfortunately. compare percy's behaviour with losing annabeth vs losing his mother/best friend/brother and its very clear.
lowkey tho. love the show but the romance makes me cringe so bad. its the only aspect of the show that makes me agree with the "tell, dont show" criticism.
