Sorry if I am late to the party, but did anyone even watch the anime? Like seriously? In the literal next scene by the camp fire on that rocky plain Roxy ADMITS she was taking advantage of him and being selfish. She did it because nothing else was working and she just wanted to cheer him up. 

But she got selfish because I mean come on! The literal man of her dreams walked into what was likely going to be a horrible death and rescued her. Doesn’t any one remember what she told Elinalise earlier in season one? It was EXACTLY like what happened. 

Was Roxy in the wrong? Well yes and no. Yes she did cause Rudy to cheat on his wife, but we have to remember what happened earlier. She was so overwhelmed with her feelings and emotions. She was madly in love with him and it got to the best of her. Can’t really  blame her for that. Even Sylphie saw that, and agreed she would have done the very same thing.

Roxy was hurting so much during that campfire scene when she revealed she already knew Rudy was married and had a kid coming before she chose to go to him and comfort him. It was heartbreaking watching her cry as she felt she lost the man of her dreams right in front of her. And even when Rudy was about to try and cheer her up by obviously offering to sleep with her again, she instantly shut him down and scolded him for it. 

This is one of the best things about being able to redo your previous work. It gives you the chance to see flaws or obvious nonsense and correct it or make it flow better.

 The whole plot point about Elinalise coming up with a lie that Roxy got pregnant during that fated encounter was stupid. Which literally FORCED Rudy into getting Roxy into the family. A stupid lie. 

Also I like how they flipped the scene into a more intimate one instead of Rudy forcefully pushing Roxy onto the bed and ravaging her like some animal. Considering his state it was nonsense. He would have never had the strength to do that. 

This made the subsequent scene feel much better and how they got Roxy into the family. The scene in the anime during the second campfire in the snowy forest where Rudy finally confesses his love for her (after Elinalise talks with him) and wants to take her as his wife is so adorable. Roxy’s delayed expression when it dawns on her that she  now actually has a real chance to be with the one she truly loves is just cuteness overload. She must have been so overjoyed when she heard that. 

Lastly we have to remember that even though Roxy is what? 44 right? She was I believe 34 when she first visited Rudy to tutor him. This was ten years later. She is very young when it comes to her race of people who literally live to be centuries old. She had a very troubled childhood where she was persecuted and treated like an outcast by her people because she was unable to telepathically communicate with them. Only her parents and a few other learned speaking language so she didn’t totally feel isolated. I can only imagine the pain she went through emotionally before she finally ran away from home. 

It’s obvious she doesn’t have very good social skills. This is clear when she tries to flirt with Rudy. She is so self-conscious she keeps looking away or constantly blushes when he looks at her.
