I think the princess blushing is not necessarily romantic i like to think that its more of a "is this person really doesn't think that im useless am i really more than what they made me believe" kind of blush or maybe its just my delulu brain refusing to associate everything with romance bc some MMC blushes too when lets say their father or mother finally compliments them after living their first lives as a nobody idk that's just my thought process :)
