I also decided to do Timothy's relationship chart to summarize his interactions he had with the characters! Inspired by cheapcoconutjam and vivistreehouse for their MCs' charts <3 and template belongs to @marzopan-art from Tumblr!
Each characters has their own (handwriting) fonts and colors, let me know if you need me to type their dialogues in the reply!
Step 1: Writing Tamarack's thoughts is cheesy haha I never had experience writing romance. Especially how direct she can be that adds up the cheesy-ness, so I added her second line to balance it off lol. Also, we love some Qiu's unrequited love >:)
Step 2: Here we get to see Timothy's thoughts about all of them <3 I was having a hard time for Serenity because they only appeared in the step 2 prologue, giving me the impression they're more of Tamarack's friend (or Tamarack and MC's friend) but not MC alone(?) So Tim's in between friendly-neutral to Serenity. I had a funny headcanon because Qiu is often seen with Tim, they (unintentionally) scared off Serenity away lol. But I hope we get to know them more in Step 2 moments like how we befriended Ren and Baxter in Step 1! I prefer to focus Tim and Tam's romance in step 2 since it's more interesting than Timmy and Tam's fluff romance in step 1. Timothy and Tamarack have gotten more aware of their own feelings, especially how different they used to treat each other in step 1. In response, Timothy felt like he only spent time with Tamarack when they were ten and not getting to know her deeply enough for four years. Especially how Timothy kept the problems to himself from Tamarack! He needs to realize he has to trust her more </3
