I would love to agree with you but then we’d both be wrong. She’s emotionally unavailable plain and simple. Ofc it’s obvious they both like each other. But she has never had someone she could vent to, someone she could talk to without filters or manners etc. She didn’t accept because she still had to think about the future. She doesn’t trust anyone and that includes herself. She knows that the timeline of the story has changed but she doesn’t trust that her brother won’t turn into a tyrant, she doesn’t trust that the ML won’t kill her brother and her. And she definitely doesn’t trust herself with keeping to her morals. Yes she loves I think we can all agree but she can never relish in that moment because she is so stuck on the future. If she does marry him she might have to betray him to save her brother if he becomes a tyrant. And what’s the point of staying with someone you might betray in the future. She is so uncertain of everything that she can’t trust anything. Up till this point she has only lived to serve (her mother and brother) but now she has her own life and doesn’t know what to do with it. And she is still trying to protect her brother at the same time. This is real character development and she has the weight of her and her brother’s life on her shoulders. I’m just waiting on the chapter where she finally breaks down and let’s everything go.
I had to pause in my reading, to vent! Because of what happened around chapter 73.

The FL is starting to get on my nerves! They both like each other. His whole knight squadron that was with him also keeled down with him! ヽ(`Д´)ノ At THAT part, she should have accepted!!!!! It would have fixed two of the problems also. And why-oh-WHY did she think she'd "play the same game" as the evil bch princess, and fake cry for forgiveness for her.(/TДT)/ What was the point of that!?!? That achieved no~thing... She should have just stayed quiet and let her get punished!!!!(╯°Д °)╯╧╧
I really liked her character in the beginning, but now I'm starting to like the FL less and less.
(●'◡'●)-deep breath-(● ̄(エ) ̄●) my vent is now done. ( ̄へ ̄)
