my parents accidentally turned on some child lock thing on their tv that blocks any 16+ movie and ndkfkdkjfkfks to disable it you just have to enter a 4 digit pin (it seems to be a custom one as we've tried all the obvious options) and for the last ... six (?) months ive been telling them JUST LOG INTO YOUR THING AND LOOK UP YOUR PIN OR CALL CUSTOMER SERVICE AND HAVE THEM RESET IT but to no avail

thinking about satoshi & romance junk ... so, it’s an understatement to say he’s had a few people express romantic interest in him ; he’s kind & brave & protective without treating people like glass & he’s amazing with pokémon & in battle, & his looks aren’t shabby either — he’s kinda hard not to get a crush on. but most times he’s been entirely oblivious purely because said interest has been expressed vaguely, through insinuation, rather than outright ; hell, he had no idea how serena felt about him until she straight-up just kissed him, & she’s hardly the most subtle of people. which brings this post to the topic of satoshi’s own crushes, present & plural.
the thing is, his feelings develop very slowly, he doesn’t get crushes at first sight or after some defining moment ; they need time to solidify, small things piling up over time, usually months at the least, not recognized but realized, more akin to actually falling in love than most people’s version of developing a crush. the first person he realized he had a crush on was kasumi, & just as they were about to part ways after johto. just a moment of “oh. i don’t actually wanna say goodbye. oh. i actually really don’t want to say goodbye, i want to spend as much time with her as possible, uh oh.”.
the second was shigeru, some time during his travels in sinnoh, but it was odd, because he’d already figured out he had a crush on kasumi & he knew those feelings hadn’t changed, but he’d never heard anyone talk about having more than one crush at a time, & everything he’d ever heard about romance was in terms of pairs, two halves, one & one. the feelings fit, but it didn’t fit with what he’d seen from others. even the very few love triangle movies he’d seen always ended in a two-person relationship. it took a very carefully timed question to takeshi about his own romantic ventures ( it helped that satoshi was actually genuinely curious about how takeshi kept jumping from one crush to another ) , to understand that yeah, sometimes people had enough love in them to have feelings for more than one person at a time, that was a thing & entirely normal.
thanks to this, when it came time for him to part with the friends he’d made in kalos & serena had already left for hoenn &, in an evident tradition of having just the worst timing with these things, satoshi realized he’d developed feelings for both citron & serena, he was able to accept that quickly & without second-guessing himself.
he didn’t really kick himself for realizing it “too late” in serena’s case since she was the only person he knew for certain reciprocated the feelings, because he’s kind of understood for a while that he travels too much to consistently keep in touch with people he’s not actively traveling with, or at least in the same region as, so, even if he tried pursuing something there, he just wouldn’t be able to keep up the relationship, not even mentioning his workaholic focus on battling ( even if he’d never call it quite that ) . that’s also the reason he hasn’t tried to pursue anything with his other crushes either, regardless of if he thinks they might reciprocate or not ; he’s just not stable enough to maintain relations outside friendship ( he just barely maintains acquaintanceships ) , at least not in a way he feels the other people would deserve, not in the way he’d like to.
