#mostly I'm just saying canon because it seemed so firmly dedicated to going that direction

[redheadedbrunette]

yea ig i read “i’ll think ab it” as not *canon* canon yet yk? also it was chocolate cake w chocolate chips and peanut butter chips in it, and then my mom put chocolate syrup on it, so it was very sweet. we also used mayo bc we didn’t have enough eggs -t1sb

Okay, that sounds so delicious and I'm very jealous and mayo cake is an actual thing.

And the way I read it was her not really fully committing to it at that particular moment, but given her (voluntary) emptionally vulnerability followed by the kiss, and the stark difference with which that scene was handled in comparasion to every other scene they've had together, it at least seemed like they're making actual progress that's not going to get backpedaled at the start of the next book.
