[She barely even realizes that was a date, and sadly doesn't know Grimm's involvement.]
I'm not sure but Hollow Knight is still figuring out a lot of very important things about themselves. I feel like dumping such serious feelings on them right now wouldn't be very considerate and might even make them feel pressured?
[Even more than rejection Lobco fears Hollow Knight deciding to be in a relationship with her purely to spare her feelings or out of a sense of obligation.]
Perhaps I'm not giving them enough credit but...I just really, really want to avoid that scenario.
[She's not sure how to feel about that statement. She's glad he thinks as much but she thinks Grimm is giving her entirely too much credit.]
I'll continue to think about it then...are there any particular traditions or methods to express affection in Hallownest that I should know of? Anything I definitely shouldn't do?

[You could at least try to sound surprised, Grimm??]
Have you told them such?
no subject
...was she?]
No. I haven't. I'm still not sure for certain. I've only felt like this once before... [And that ended awfully.]
And. I don't know if it's the best time?
no subject
What do you suppose would be the best time?

[It's a reasonable fear, with the Hollow Knight, that they might put their own feelings last out of a desire to deny they had feelings at all.]
But I do not believe that you could pressure anyone, even if you tried.

Most of what I can think of, the Moonblessed here also do in some form. Gifts, kind words, that sort of thing.
The subject of their father is still a touchy one. I would not breach it.

Still, it was nice to have said it aloud.]
Thank you, Grimm.
