Saw a tweet that said “why an inn? why did they ditch the cute little restaurant idea from s1?” and the replies were filled with sentiments such as “well no, of course they built an entire ending around one line of dialogue 🙄” and “that would require any amount of effort from the writers to build upon the existing narrative from s1”.
And that was fucking baffling to me, because oh my god, how do you miss the point that completely?
The inn isn’t the point. Personally, I read the inn as one of their whims. Next month they might decide to turn it into a bar and grill after all, and serve snake soup. Three months after that they might decide to sell it all and start their own traveling circus. What they actually do doesn’t matter, what matters is that amidst all their whims and boredom and chaos, they’ve chosen each other. They’re always going to choose each other and love each other on purpose.
Changing their temporary dream from a restaurant to an inn couldn’t matter less. They’re each other’s happy ending, not the inn.
