one of my favorite tropes is proxy romance, and I'm thinking about it super intensely from a drunzled lens rn. I need drunz to be stupid pining idiots and for purpled to be the third that gets involved thinking that both of them are already dating. imagine the three of them on their plotting to destroy nevadas arc and purpled is flirting with the both of them and gets flirted with in return but never when the other is in the room. im thinking about the awkward stages of drunz also being really into purpled but feeling guilty about pursuing a relationship with purpled because they're also really into each other. (also being with purpled while imagining it was the other... proxy relationship proxy relationship)
but then they find out purpled is flirting with the both of them so it's this mess of "are you playing us" and then purpled being confused like "...do i have to choose one of you?" WHICH. Would be a REASONABLE question to ask of a couple that is dating! But sounds like an asshole question to two people not dating!
anyways they have a small fight but then eventually they realize purpled thought drunz were already dating and then it's just kind of awkward and embarrassing for drunz as they realize the feelings have been mutual this whole time. and then they ALL KISS. the end.
