I know and ive been ignoring it at the same time. All the talk in here way back, months and months were talking about how people were looking forward to an episode of fun and happy couple time for every path and the party. Somehow that seeped in (I also blame the Bella porch preview mulling in my mind) and I had deluded myself into a dream of one happy episode for Bella+MC with comparatively minor side drama such as a soulcrushed Jill etc as well as the communal path drama that is Sages adopted family.
You just made it come crashing back, of course it have to happen now to set things up. You delivered the comedown before i got the experience of the high
In my mind no drama is as high on the ladder as Bellas. That damn cry for help library scene have set it at a severity apart from all the other LI "bombs", they are low to mid severity if that makes sense? Things that hurt and makes you grow sure but not at the level of loss and grief. If every hint about Bellas past is not as severe as we have been led to believe im gonna get really fucking annoyed
