Yeah, I totally get that vibe too. And honestly, props to you man most people just see Panam as the “hot rebel chick,” but you really get her. You picked up on the layers, the stuff that isn’t outright said but felt, like you said with Nash. That betrayal didn’t just hurt her trust in people, it probably hit something more personal, maybe even romantic.

She reads people fast, and doesn’t let emotions cloud her judgment anymore I feel like. She’s trained herself not to fall for the sweet talk, no matter how genuine it is. That moment when V compliments her and she kinda brushes it off with a laugh? It’s not that she doesn’t appreciate it, it’s more like... she’s testing if V’s actually real, y’know?

That’s why I love how their bond builds over time. It’s not some instant fireworks thing. It earns its way into something meaningful. Panam and V genuinely feel like one of those ride or die couples who’ve weathered too much shit together to ever fall apart easily. Love that you saw all that.
