That platonic relationship between them felt like the vibes you get when they say 'they're just room mates your honor'. They have too much chemistry to be platonic （/TДT)/
yeah i heard the author said all that a long time ago since I've been following this story from early on and in the recent chapters, it's way obvious that they both are developing feelings that are more than platonic for each other, perhaps the author might change his mind and actually make them a couple, maybe after some more plot development since the boy has turned eighteen
ok but i love that the author made him 17 so people couldnt sexualize them♡
Okay so i went to the authors page and found out that hes a man (for those calling him a she) and that the boy and tera will have a "platonic romance", he also cleared that there won't be any kissing since the boy is 17 (which he said it was put on purpose so readers knew they werent getting any nsfw)but he really went on circles abt the queerbaiting (which i truly don't know if it is or not).
he also made a suggestion abt the only one falling in love being the boy which is crazy bc rn tera is crazy abt him
