huh i think i have aeventi notes with pretty much every trope i enjoy,,, my guilty pleasure though

mutual pining with unresolved tension + hidden feelings, where one of the characters/two characters cherish each other and don't expect anything in return because they think they're not good enough/not worthy of love/have never been loved before

extra points if one of the characters is so used to this mindset that they act like it's not a big deal and laught it off instead of being openly sad

extra extra points if the other character is heartbroken to see it and gets to fix this + makes sure they feel loved (bonus: makes them cry from feeling loved)

It's so hhhhhhhhhhh and with aeventi. oh boi this with aeventi please
