I'd just be fun to see them switch. If the characters don't want to then nothing can be done about it, but their dynamic would be insane if reversed. Plus, most ppl probably don't know that the author said something about it already (I for instance had no idea)
Why these people want them to switch when the author clearly said the characters didnt want to???
I'm curious bc it's almost the ene of the story yet there r still a few ppl wanting em to switch (when it's impossible)
