Is it a date or two friends hanging out? Do you need to clarify? Is it wrong to confess by text? What about asking to hold hands? These are some of the questions we explore in the story of Lud and Mati.
🧝♂️ After meeting as part of a nerd group within their local Tolkien Association, Mati decided to take Lud on a date. But... she didn't know that it was a date! They spent months as friends, with him trying to know if she was interested, and her assuming that they were just friends.
🎲 With multiple critical fails in the middle, it took a common friend to bridge the gap between them.
