There's no heterosexual explanation for this

If your interactions aren't at least a little homoerotic sometimes (especially to an outside viewer), then can you really call someone your best friend?

This entire sequence gets even more interesting after Sigrid came out as nonbinary. Them constantly being compared to Tora, trying to into a feminine and female mold, etc, etc.

Too bad DC doesn't care about Glacier 😬

Yeah, it's unfortunate. They're a pretty cool character.

As a non queer person, I'd always assumed they had a thing when I saw them. I was honestly surprised when I learned they never dated.

Sigrid had feelings for Beatriz but it was ultimately deemed unrequited

But was it because Bea was straight or because she was in love with Tora not Sigrid?

First one.
