Well, it's only Issue 5, and Jeanty's told us that they're going to have some kind of ~moment~ together next issue. I'd say that they're building it slowly so it'll be more satisfying in the end, but I (as Spuffy shipper) have been very pleased with the natural development of the relationship up until now. Love declarations this early on don't bode well for the ship or characters at large. (They tend to end with father figures getting murdered and catatonic characters. ;D)
