How do you think that Enoch realize that he was in love with Emma , Olive, and Jacob
a fellow polyculiar enjoyer encountered in the wild? we few are the truly enlightened 😌
he and emma are not in love. their relationship is obviously a little more complicated than your average friendship since theyre both dating the same two people but neither of them consider themselves to be dating
he lived in a loop before cairnholm from 1920-1949 at which point he was (physically) 16 and olive showed up in 1958 when she was 17 he was immediately like "wow shes gorgeous too bad shes way out of my league and is only my friend out of pity cuz shes so kind and selfless oh god im so in love with her. welp, time to swallow my feelings and hope they go away :) i am the Best At Coping" meanwhile she was like "dam hes cute too bad he barely notices i exist and would never love me. ive accepted that doesnt feel the same but i will Never get over it Ever" and then they yearned for like sixty years until blackpool when he was like "oh shit shes dead thats really sad and on top of that i never told her how i feel and now i never can even though i know she wouldve rejected me. guess ill tell her now just to get it off my chest" and then she woke up and there was a few awkward days of both of them being really nervous around each other and not knowing how to define the relationship until they mutually agreed that they would really like to be gf & bf
part of his original reason for hating jake was because he always liked boys but following his transition and opportunity to completely reinvent himself between loops and successfully hide his old self, he repressed that as much as he was able since he needed to be a Real Man and Real Men Dont Like Other Men. he didnt really hate jake that much, he hated firstly abe and the idea of jake being like abe, but also the way jake made him feel. a bit after the movie he started having confusing feelings but it was actually olive who first approached jake and asked if people from his time were ever in relationships with multiple people and he taught about polyamory. with enochs consent she continued to be his gf while also exploring romantic feeling for emma which led to jake and olive both (sort of) dating emma, resulting in enoch having to confront the feelings he had been unsuccessfully trying to ignore. he wasnt really sure how to go about it but settled for an honest handwritten note slipped under jakes door and then hiding in his room for a few days until jake came to ask him about it and they are now bfs
