<a href="https://thatcryptidinthesea.tumblr.com/" style="text-decoration:underline;">thatcryptidinthesea</a>: <p>Hello hi howdy how you doing?</p><p>Technically non-canon question but I'm new here n have been going through a bunch of the posts to get Up To Speed and I've noticed that Blue seems to have romantic entanglements with both Glitchy Red and Fire Red so what I'm wondering is, when/if Glitchy manages to escape superhell how will those relationships pan out? Will it be polyamorous? Or will the Reds fight to the death for the right to kiss Blue? Maybe both? <strike>Or will someone die before then?</strike></p><p>Anyways yeah hope you're doing well n I love this blog. :3</p>

[HI mod starry here i keep forgetting to answer this fuuuck. anyways firstly- welcome welcome!! we’re happy 2 have you and im glad you like the blog so far! ^^

to start with actually answering, here’s what Carrion said which sums it up a lot more. eloquently than i could:

Relationships and how they can change and fluctuate between people as a consequence of trauma and grief is a central theme to missing numbers- You’ll have to simply wait and see how things pan out by engaging with the story as it’s told

anyways for my own messier answer- i always prefer polyamory over “fighting to the death” over one guy haha,, ultimately while there very much ARE relationships and attractions in mn that do affect the character’s dynamics in important ways, i don’t want things to go down a path where any romantic fights n shit override the bigger picture/point of the blog. mn is a horror mystery where the relationships ARE important, but the focus is still the horror mystery anjkklsd

(ive always personally avoided shipping centric parts of fandoms in fact.. ive never shipname tagged any of my art actually focusing on that . that stuff scares me and i dont wanna bait and switch people with Aw theyre in love! wait why is blue stabbing him)

with that said, the details of everyone’s dynamics with each other, both in current and future, is still a part of the Questions of the story that i hope to lay out thru future interactions and answers! its just that every part of these is important, not just romance ^v^ ]
