Hi guys, I just happened to pass by this thread a few weeks ago, then I had to join in the fun.
To be honest, I don't know how to spot hints or find some things interesting until somebody actually points it out, and I thank this thread for helping me see more hints and find my conjecture that Ash and Serena fit for each other might work out well. I just felt it from the start, its too weird, as weird as confessing my crush to a classmate. Thanks to this thread, my conjecture keeps on getting stronger. I do hope Serena does confess and Ash replies accordingly, although I don't see this happening until very soon.
Enough with the introduction, I just watched the latest episode and I did notice the two (Ash and Serena) were well together from the start of the episode. It seems like the only time they weren't together was the time Tierno and Ash battled. (Not that away, I am sure she was watching. Just something to add, Goodra is strong, hands down.) I find this episode kinda sweet from the interactions of the two. I am just disappointed that this episode did not give anything big in terms of Amour, I actually expected Ash to be closer to Serena during the fire, trying to protect her or maybe Serena calling Ash for some reassurance, they were kinda quiet. Thinking it over, you don't just do things that may worsen the situation, just like being reckless in all movements. (okay, I'm overthinking the situation) Nevertheless, I'm satisfied. The spectacle I call "The two episodes after the Ramos battle" (Insert obligatory "any better name" comment here) was enough bigtime hints for the meantime. The Tierno-going-Brock-mode scene was kinda funny to be honest. Pretty much, I just find it as a gag, just like Bonnie going KEEP! And if Tierno did suggest that Ash be with Serena during that search-ish situation, the fanboying of Tierno may just be harmless.
I am excited with the next few episodes, especially with the Lumiose Gym battle, I am feeling that we might get something off that battle.
So that's what I'm feeling about Amour. Love is not my thing, it actually took me more than half an hour to type this. I hope I'm doing good.
By the way, I started to read some FanFics, and I have to say, I'm having a good time reading those, hopefully I get to write one from my mind, I am kinda bad at making up stories, what more with something that involves some level of love.
