Author commentary: Kanaya finally gets the romantic attention from Vriska she was looking for all along. It turns out all she needed to do was quit her meddlesome groveling, stop caring about Vriska completely for several weeks, then turn into a vampire, appear out of nowhere, chop a fishboy in half, kick a clown in the nuts, and punch Vriska in the face. This is how you earn people's respect, and Vriska's in particular. This tiny blinking heart icon turns into kind of a running gag, and we see it a few times later in different contexts. I'm not sure I can explain what it's supposed to evoke by being so small. Possibly a nagging feeling that was previously resisted, beginning to intrude on someone's thoughts against their better judgment. Like, oh yeah, Kanaya WAS a bad bitch all along, and I was a fool for not falling in love sooner. Yes, Vriska. You were. But not as big a fool as when you turned down my proposal. Turns out you will NEVER stop reaping karmic retribution for that blunder.
