I had this exact same journey, I remember thinking it was much sadder but looking bad, it was the most grounded and genuinely heartwarming ending. PatrickStar
exactly. back then, whenever i think abt this story, my heart aches bcs i always perceived the ending as unfinished. but now i know it's the most perfect ending for these two emotionally complex characters. whether their relationship progresses into the "ideal" one or they eventually split bcs of their differences is up to us to think. whatever it may be, the story ends where it should ends.
re-reading this again after a few years made me realize that the ending is not bittersweet as i intially thought. it's just... real.
