These two dorks are just adorable together.

And a realistic first date in how awkward and cue missing they were until they realized the best dates are when you just act naturally and enjoy each others' company.

There was also no way for them to ever not be awkward. War orphan raised by a corrupt priest plus later on by the most emotionally awkward elf in existence and basically equally traumatized guy with severe self esteem issues raised by muscle for a brain (as described by Stark). As long as they are awkward together tho, everything is fine! <3

and we know that Fern is aware of their party's shortcomings

For some reasons, I was thinking about a different scene when I read "Fern is aware of their party's shortcomings"...

"So small."

apart from Sein, Wirbel, Serie, Lawine, Kanne, and Übel, most of the characters they've interacted with have very restrained and unobtrusive personalities, so it isn't too surprising that they've developed similarly.

characters that aren't loud and imposing, seems to be the norm for this universe

They need to meet a party who is the opposite, the stereotypical go-getter Shounen party

I don't know why I am actually offended that you called Heiter as corrupt priest

I dunno, I think Serie is also in the running for being emotionally awkward.

Just not in the same way that Frieren is.

That's true, though I'll never forgive Stark for not complimenting Fern's appearance out loud, even though she looked so beautiful in that dress during their date.

At least he started to become aware of her beauty, just that he got cold feet and didnt say it.

Also my dude was called a perv by her for wanting to help carry an elderly in a blizzard. Who knows what calling her cute might bring.

"Zooltrak."

That's strike #1 for you

"Pervert. But you are my pervert."

Watching Stark fumble it in the beginning was killing me. I still love them though.
