>>91887840Right, but my point was a lot of people seem to be convincing themselves that now that Marco knows, his emotions will just sort of insta-awaken and starco will be canon by midseason finale or something. I agree with other anon that it might take till s4, myself
>I think that Star and Marco had been acting pretty weird to each other for the entire duration between Song Day and Starcrushed (do we get any clear indication how long that is?).That was my point yes. I'm guessing it's a few days at least. And the thing is, regarding Marco trusting what Star says, is that in his eyes Star
a) made a very public, very explicit confession of love to him, in front of her parents and people (through another person, but still)
b) didn't deny it afterwards, implying she meant it and it's true.
A few days of Marco believing Star made a public confession of love to him.
Now, if he would harbor hidden feelings of romance he'd have reacted differently, I think. He could have been surprised but happy. Instead he was uncomfortable and relieved when Star denied it. Again, that doesn't imply he'd go all Star I love you too within s03e01, like some seem to hope.
>OR trusts Star's judgement in denying her crush meaning that she wants Marco to act like there's no crush and Song Day never happened>ha ha yeah I have a crush on you but let's just pretend it's not there while knowing that it is it's for the best let's just hang out like always while e both know I'm crushing on you, while you make out with Jackie>okay whew sounds goodI feel like there's something I'm not getting.
In either case Marco is relieved Star is denying having romantic feelings for him. Once again, I'm not saying starco won't happen, I think it will - eventually - but I kinda think that anyone honestly thinking Marco was gonna reply I love you too, or will fall for Star after a couple of days of thinking about it are being a bit daft
