I picked this game up on a Gog.com sale this spring, mainly because it was so cheap, Telltale games are usually good anyways and it looked like it had a good sense of humor. As with all Telltale games I've played, I'm always blown away with the emotion and heart put into these stories and characters; they truly feel real. (I've not played Telltale's entire catalog, just like 4-5 of the distinct games all the way through, but still.) 

In my playthrough I can't remember exactly when I got to the point that I was completely on-board shipping these two, but I was at least by about the greenhouse & got annoyed that the writers started really, really weighing the scale on Rhys/Sasha. I was all: "what the hell game? They're just friends. They don't belong together. NOPE. [refuses to pick obvious trap flower]" It's funny to me because I think I can count on one hand the number of games I've ever played where I had an opinion on shipping characters at all, but I credit it to the writers that they made these characters dynamic and interesting enough that it got me to care about them and their relationships.

I really like your picture here because if there's ever a season 2 I could totally see Fiona figuring out that Rhys has feelings for her; but that he doesn't come out with it directly and so she just takes matters into her own hands; literally.* I think stories can be much more interesting and dynamic when characters credibly break out of stereotypical roles.

*(I do know about the "I like...someone else..." scene, but it seemed like Fiona either didn't pick up the implication that it was her and/or hadn't decided how she felt by the end of the game.)
