So there's this girl in my grade; I've known her since last year, but I've never really talked to her that much, not more than a few sentences.
BUT today!! today me and my friend were talking about kotlc and then she (the girl, let's call her K), overheard and K's like "wait r you talking about keeper of the lost cities??" and then my friends like "yep!" (btw K and my friend, lets call Z, are friends already), and then she says "I LOVE that series!"
and so me being obsessed with the series goes "AHH YES ANOTHER FAN" (mostly internally... mostly-) we 3 talk a little bit and stuff, etc etc. but I have so many questions i need to ask, and the first one is "what are your ships??" and she says "sokeefe, obvisouly"
Then we take a pause(we were in the lunch line so there was a pause + the principal was there soo), and then me and Z go back to her and I ask her if she likes Tam
She hesitates for a little bit. Not for like, a second, but like for 5. She starts to say "he's okay, i guess" and stuff like that So I get the logical reaction and am about to have a heart attack,
The reason I'm not in the hospital right now is because she said ONE THING that literally saved everything (for me at least)
"I do like Tiana though!!"
and I literally fall to my knees and i cheer silently to Z (she's just laughing her butt off inside lol)
lets go to my history cuz K's in my history class, and i'm just waiting for her, so i speed walk to her, trying not to look too eager (i think i failed tbh- no defo failed) and i'm trying to make conversation and not look to eager
eventually i go back to keeper and i ask her again to be sure that she likes tam and this time, no hesitation, she says YES with a confident nod, "i like tam, yes :D"
so im like 'okay good thats really good'' and then i say "so what about dex?"
(TW for any dex lovers i am so sorry.)
then she hesitates. not for a second, not for 5, but like for 15. FIFTHTEEN. and she says "...not really??"
and im like... i might have another heart attack-
next she says "he's okay, but i don't really like how he and sophie interacted in the first book..." and i nod, because respectfully, it was a bit awkward there (and because im trying not to scream)
BUT she does agree that Dex needs more page time.
And then the teacher is like 'time to get started' and that ends the conversation etc etc
I just needed to get this out somewhere, but yeah.
And for anyone who skipped all that because... yeah- here's a summary:
Summary: Found kotlc fan. She ships sokeefe. Likes Tam. Ships Tiana. Doesn't really like Dex though, but agrees that he needs more page time.
What are your guys thoughts on this?
