@notarose on the 13th! If you're thinking live proposal, what do you think will happen at the FRC?

Assuming this actually happens on the 13th:
Not sure but the black vehicle arrives at the FRC while the sky is still light then later Nick is seen in much darker light by the outdoor fire in his suit. That could be because the F2 came/left then he goes out to wait for Vanessa.  But what if he let the F2 go on a different day?  Why outside by the fire?
I'm thinking he told Vanessa at the FRC that he wanted her to see everything filmed before making her decision, that he had a ring but didn't want her to decide until later. He keeps talking about "transparency" in interviews so it does fit. I also think he may want her to live the potential negativity that comes with being his partner - all the SM/media crap - beforehand so she can truly see what that component would be like before committing herself.
I suppose the same 13 luck might apply simply by the proposal being official on air date.  Just don't know what's what with the open fire in the snow.

I do believe she is his F1.  The clues just keep multiplying.

Lavender doesn't grow in that part of the world; first association is French.
"It represents refinement, grace, and elegance. Lavender holds a sacred place in nature, and with its violet flowers is often considered the most delicate and precious. Any arrangement filled with these beautiful blossoms sends a message of feminine beauty."

IMO Nick is in deep love with this woman.  Just trying to navigate how he will attempt to insure that she doesn't mislead herself like he did in other seasons.  He is well aware that he fell in love on other seasons then realized "nope, that would have been a disaster".  As lead, I think he knows how he feels for V is much richer, deeper, bigger however I don't know how he can help her keep outside the bubble.  Actually, as far as up to epi 8 goes, I think she has managed well.
Hmmm, not sure. It's the fire that's throwing me off.  Otherwise I would say I think they were engaged at the FRC and the 13th as an announcement day is lucky, something her sweet grandfather who was with her on the journey would appreciate

PS: and why doesn't he have his coat on by the snow fire? Like is he waiting for V to bring him a fur throw & s'mores?

As based on some recent interviews Nick has made in how he describes Vanessa... elegant, graceful, stunning...

N&V thoughts of the day:

These two are doing a physical dance with each other. They are so in synch.
Like when they crouched down onto the boat, they were already mirroring.


This was like "From Here to Eternity: Underwater Version" making even goggles looks sexy:


And that kiss to the hand during dinner...he lingered pretty long on that hand. He was telling her something with that.

(my sc's)

These little gestures are meaningful.

I wonder what they're doing on the second pic??!!...I saw this on Twitter...

I love the 2nd pic @skates.
Their snorkel breathing tubes are detached and they start facing each other then end up with her prone and him lifting her knee while floating atop her to keep her body close.  All the while mouth to mouth (as per vid) so they exchanging air - breathing each other in.
It's a lot like a "trust" exercise.

Last pic - there have been other glimpses from different angles in previews/promos of them on this deck.  Not sure why the sexual chemistry has been downplayed in the epis by not showing footage of scenes like this.

I love that pic too... Thank you for telling me how it's been done... Lol!!...I am amazed, I think they are sort of both floating (?)... What do you think of the last pic?

Nick liked this

[crunchycheeto]

He looks like a very attentive student, but you can tell that he's not really paying attention because he's distracted by his massive crush on the teacher.

[Cila51290]

I love smitten Nick! It's my favorite version of him.

[GuardianAngel]

@crunchycheeto That's what I thought last night when I was watching. He's not interested in what she's babbling, he'll just look at her. Then he said is that one word?, clearly he was not listening to the teacher.
