great question, thanks for asking^^! so as far as phoebe is concerned, she’s living the perfect lesbian dream with her hot older girlfriend, and katie works to maintain that illusion with constant gift giving and affection. katie pays close attention when phoebe doesn’t like something and tries to keep things to what she “wants,” figuring out ways to take advantage of her in ways that make phoebe think she’s having fun and discovering new things. the situation doesn’t start feeling off to phoebe for quite some time(years) for that reason. I’ll definitely explore phoebe’s side of things as time goes on, cause she’d be living in that apartment for the better half of her life at a certain point. There will eventually be opportunities for her to leave but she won’t end up taking them for various reasons, a big one being her love for katie, and i’m excited to tell that part of their story one day 🫶 thanks again for the ask, i appreciate the message!!
