There's been a lot of (sexual) tension since the early chapters and nice chemistry due to them both being aware of their "roles"; she's not really had much interest towards Blake either if you're talking genuine affection, she's simply on a mission and doing a bunch of stuff with different dudes lmao? I can only say your last sentence right back to you, girl
That's in the most recent chapters, the things with Blake are purely for the mission too. ╮( ̄▽ ̄)╭ All I'm saying is it's pretty wild to me if you don't understand the ship at all, implying others "haven't read the same story" - rather she's extremely uncomfortable with Blake right now due to her realization it's Cain. It's pretty 50/50 in regards to interest, which makes sense considering how it's gonna end.
It's not like she can express much affection though, because if Carl doesn't comply with the plot, the crack in that universe opens more and more. She's intimidated by the thought of her not completing her role correctly, which made her disregard any thought of a relationship with him.
If it weren't for that, she would've left Blake the moment she knew it was Cain... It's because of her no having no choice but to be by his side that she tries to find light in the pitch black.
Let's not forget that Cain murdered her despite her wanting to live. Cain killed her and committed s****** one-sidedly so he could be with her. However, she didn't know Cain felt that way towards her and didn't feel that way for him either (they worked together in acting roles that were romantically involved, but they were friends off their roles).
It makes sense she hated him to her last breath and couldn't fathom why he did that. She didn't get to live and die the way she wanted to after finding out about her illness.
Yall my baby Blake
Also I don’t get the Carl shippers, I totally understand loving the 2nd ml but she litch does not seem interested in him ??? Am I crazy or am I crazy like I thought we were all reading the same story but ig not…
