Sorvus is one of the ships with the most blatant "one fell first and the other fell harder" trope, and I think that's beautiful.
Soren having a crush on Corvus to the point of scarring his own eyebrow is hilarious, but not as much as letting Corvus escape kidnapping twice and almost a third time (it would have happened if Claudia hadn't intervened). Soren clearly thinks Corvus is the coolest and most handsome guy he knows (after himself). It might just be admiration, of course, to the less attentive eye..
BUT in the short story "Changing of the Guard" it's quite evident. The story is written in a way that almost seems like a confession, I mean, Soren seems too nervous to ask Corvus to join the Crown Guard, he tries to give a rehearsed speech to convince him, it's adorable. He says all that, explaining that it means a lot to Ezran, uhum.. to Ezran.
Now Corvus..
I'm absolutely certain Corvus knows about Soren's crush on him, he always notices everything, I like to believe he finds it cute. He doesn't do or say anything about it because: 1 - Corvus thinks Soren will get over this crush quickly. 2 - He doesn't want to hurt Soren.
Yes, it took Corvus two years to fall in love, slowburn indeed. Soren definitively won him over when he allowed himself to appear vulnerable to him. Corvus emanates a very demiromantic energy, where requires 100% mutual trust for a loving bond to form, so it's quite difficult for him to truly fall in love. And wow, when he realizes he's in love with Soren, he becomes more open, more smiling, more comfortable with displays of affection. And well, that fuels Soren to fall even more in love with him, if that's even possible.
