Boleska went straight to hell quickly and I was annoyed that they basically retconned Eska's shitty abusive behavior. I'm glad it sunk, but that wasn't okay.
In which he would get "caught up."
Why the fuck would he have apparently genuine feelings for her?
Seriously: he thought she was pretty and tried to flirt with her, and that pampered classist jerkbender promptly decided that he was her little working-class toy. Which I seriously think was some misbegotten attempt to make him look shallow and fickle (possibly to hand-wave aside his looking less so than Mako The Sam in Book 1).
It was all take and no give. And then, they try to sweep that under the rug and try to make it look like she gave half a damn about him all along, despite all evidence to the fucking contrary?
(Please let both that and Makorra—which was only even marginally better because anything would be—stay sunk for good.)
