Someone please tell me if I’m wrong about this!

So I get this feeling sometimes, while reading this series, that there’s a bizarre level of deep understanding, insight, and awareness that the characters have of each other’s inner thoughts, tendencies, and motivations that isn’t reflected anywhere in the storyline.

Basically, saying stuff like “he must be thinking ___” when nothing in the story so far has suggested he would think/feel that way. Or “that’s so typical of him” when it’s our first time seeing that behavior? Or “He must be so ___(fill in the random emotion here)___” when I, as a reader, have seen nothing in the story so far to support “that character having that emotion” would be an expectable result?

There so much of this throughout the story. It feels like most of their understands of each other were developed off screen at some point that we’re unaware of… or possibly these understandings came from the author’s mind- but without the author realizing that it’s unnatural for such deep understanding to occur without cause?

Nonetheless, I like the series. I’d say that the above is my only real criticism. The bromance is a bit- why do I feel like our MC descends from a succubus or learned the charm spell? It’s not happening between any other characters… but that’s cool in its own way. So it’s still a great series.
