But what if Cody has a crush on Ricky.

#i'm just saying that cody is trying to impress ricky a lot and he's looking over to see what he thinks all the time #and he brings up in conversation a lot the parallels and connections between them #don't even get me started on the whole 'we're like naruto and sasuke' thing #i just think that maybe cody has a little bit of a crush on a ricky but because he is a good guy and he knows that ricky is dating esther #he doesn't make a move #but he's still maybe crushing hard #it's definitely not mutual but that's where the angst comes in #because even though ricky doesn't like him he's also one of the few people on the dream team to spend time with cody #other than pete (and pete/cody is EXCELLENT); no one else has really spent time actually with cody #and before the whole questing blade thing; ricky spent a week just going around with cody and helping him do paladin stuff #and it's like jj was talking about this past episode - it's easy to be lonely in the big city when you don't have family or friends near #and cody doesn't seem to be close with his family and until recently he's been in a rough patch with his roommates #so imagine being cody walsh - alone in the city and the mall (the only place that really feels like home) is gone #no one believes you about gladiator or is willing to fight with you #you're so desperate for help that you're willing to sign your soul away to the first demon you come across #and then ricky matsui; this warm and comforting person; starts helping you figure out your new powers #and maybe you start to feel not so scared and alone anymore #(and maybe you have the slightest crush. but. it's not gonna happen so why bring it up?)
