>>89506952>Wendy's touched enough by Dipper's confession to put down her "cool" front and confess herself just how insecure she is about her appearance.I've seen Shortstack Wendy as having that insecurity underneath the surface almost since the beginning. I even lightly touched on it in that /ss/ pastebin I wrote a couple years back.
>Whether or not it actually plants the seeds for something to develop between them in the future would be up in the air though.I think it could. With Dipper's feelings and Wendy's insecurity out in the open, there's room for them to grow closer together. Dipper would be there to try and comfort her or cheer her up whenever something brings that insecurity to the surface. It could boost her self-esteem knowing that no matter how things end up looking, he IS going to love her just as much as if she were full-sized.
