I'm midway through Providence... Idk how to put words on it but like. When a certain character died, and Tsunemori was kneeling in shock next to them, a man placed his hand on her shoulder. And I cannot describe the RELIEF I felt when it turned out to be Gino. This would have been such a horrible moment for Kougami to get his slimy hand on her
read: I know they make up. I watched S3. In that moment, Kougami has yet to apologise, Tsunemori is not open to befriending him, and as such it would have been horrendous for him to feel this comfortable. I'm really glad the movie isn't pushing something forceful like that
Mostly, the reason this feels significant to me is how much Gino has become a representation of trust-- he is a right source for comfort, he is safe.
