I’ve reread this a couple times now and I just need to get these thoughts out. One of the lines early on in this season says that:
“SO ANY ATTEMPT TO FORCIBLY BIND THEM WITH THE RED THREAD CAN HAVE DETRIMENTAL EFFECTS ON THEIR DESTINY...”
My mind put emphasis on “forcibly.” The other premise of this season is to remain “clear” and have all misfortune will be purged. Failure results into misfortune purged and memories erased.
This whole time I’ve been thinking that HKH wasn’t really “forced,” at least not a romantic love level. Clearing previous quests have pushed our MCs to be open/honest. I think our rock is giving HKH an opportunity to “consent” to the red string connection. Both will need to commit to the connection moving forward.
If they don’t, the tie will be severed, the memories lost, and the connection will fade. Once the connection is gone, HKH will be lucky again.
Maybe this is obvious but I’ve been ruminating on it for a bit.
