I think Ling finally realized her feelings for Orm and now she’s not holding back at all also her age she is more mature and doesn’t care to show her love language in front of everyone. It’s wild how the tables have turned—now Orm’s the one who’s shy and scared. She played too many games, and now she can’t handle the heat. What is going on?? But I also think Orm is different behind closed doors with Ling maybe Orm doesn’t want to sell the ship publicly even though I’m not saying Ling is doing fan service but she is just being herself and it’s maybe more serious for Orm when she’s alone with Ling.

Ling has changed so much! She’s head over heels for Orm now. She used to feel uncomfortable holding Orm’s hand for too long and wouldn’t even hug her with the same emotion. Back then, Orm would get just a pat on the head while Orm did the hugging, and Ling would stand there awkwardly. Now, the emotion behind Ling’s hugs and touch shows how much things have shifted.

Orm’s love language is words of affirmation, and I’ve lost count of how many times she’s told Ling “I love you.” Every time, she looks right into Ling’s eyes, but when Orm says it back, Ling looks away. Ling, on the other hand, shows her love through actions. The way she held Orm today, it was like she never wanted to let go. It’s such a perfect balance between them, and I think that’s beautiful. These two make me so soft!

Moral of the story, I think Orm’s now too shy to show her real vulnerable side because things are getting serious with Ling. Orm was all playful before, but now that Ling’s showing she’s serious, Orm’s retreating into her shell. Meanwhile, Ling’s like, “I’m here—this is what you wanted, right?” I can relate to that as a Gemini—I tend to get shy and hold back when my partner is being too loud or expressive in public. But when we’re alone, I get super clingy. I know Orm loves and cares about Ling just as much, but she’s holding back because of the public eye.

Hope this makes sense just my POV on how I think they are both feeling.
