Yeah, the timeline is a bit confusing. I just go with how many piercings little Mo is wearing to gauge where we are in the timeline-relationship development, although that is a little off sometimes. I ended up having a weird conversation in RL with a friend who has a theory that He Tian has a tongue piercing and that is why he is wearing a mask. There is a pizza riding on that bet. I just thought I would throw that conspiracy out into the void.
@luckycalico, I'm just preemptively sad. They promised to be a band after finishing middle school (am I reading that right?), and making a promise that is kinda worded like a wedding vow. We know something bad is going to happen. In the "present" day timeline, they haven't met up yet. Although waiting for the outcome of the Christmas special serial is adding years to my life.
I will give String Cheese to anyone in the Fan Cult of hair bang straightening!!
