The Castle

The castle feels almost like a character itself, adding a fairy-tale vibe. I wonder how much the author envisioned the setting shaping the story's emotional beats.

The slow burn and gradual shift in their relationship felt authentic, but I'm curious if others saw moments where it felt especially *earned* or surprising.

The way the characters navigate their identities alongside their feelings was heartfelt. I'm interested in what motivated the author to intertwine these themes.
