this needs more recognition smh
ana and gem literally went from glaring at each other to
• him vErY rEluCtaNtly bodyguarding her
• him worrying about ana when she went to the Nautilus without him
• her asking him about his family to make sure he feels ok
• him actually responding and telling her about his past, and calling ana one of the very few people he has a good connection with
• him giving her a handkerchief when she cried
• him saving her from our beloved octopus Romeo
• him SACRIFICING HIS TSHIRT FOR HER WOUND
• him standing up for her against Dev
• her going to make sure he was ok (after knocking out Dev)
• him willingly wanting to stay with ana in the infirmary
• and her agreeing to it SMILINGLY (much to franklin's suspicion lmao)
