is steve griselda's lover? i'm kinda confused on the lore
Kinda, don't worry to much about the old stuff the story's going through a big ol' rewrite. Sorry about the late answer btw haven't been on tumblr in a little and i wanted to do a little something for this ask.
Griselda and steve met in a raid on Elder Silas town. Steve was very much a love at first fight-
Griselda on the other hand saw him as a unnatural threat that need to be taken care of,
immediately.
But as she'll learn a couple seconds later, steve doesn't stay down for long. A few waves later He kills the ravager (Nippy) Griselda was riding and she retreats not before threating steve about this not being over. Steve is very pleased about that.
They fight each other over many different raids, Steve is very silly during them clearly not taking it seriously, making dumb pick up puns and trying (failing) to impress her.
It isn't till much later when Griselda magic is weakening a lot quicker then it should and her status as First Lady wavers in the eyes of the other ill-clan leaders does she reach out Propose a partnership between the two and invites it to speak his demands for the deal over dinner.
Steve Completely missunderstands that letter, thinking she just asked him out. Yuno who translated the letter for him does not help instead fuels the fire telling him to bring a ring and other shiny gifts, She goes along with him to watch the show and laugh her ass off.
She does accept his propose, although dumbfounded by steve's way of thinking but atleast she's got him in her backpocket just incase things don't go as she needs.
