Yeah, well, I meant it was supposed to be analogous to Rory having two hot apple pies dragged across her path during a weak moment in the endgame, but it's funny, too. The evil swipe was the alternative meaning of "ho ho."
Since Jess came back, they've barely spoken except to get straight that Rory had no claim on him, and to bicker pointlessly about what a jerk he was. They didn't do anything wrong. And I was talking about the games, freakouts, extra-relationship interests, and spontaneous doubts she graced Logan with, not her future attraction to Dean. Rory might have wondered what she missed for the rest of her life, but she never would have dumped Dean as long as the strength to make a pro-con list was in her.
The thing was, did Dean really love her for who she was, or was he just hoping her love of rules would keep her tied to him forever? He knew she was self-centered and driven, but he should have also known she would never cheat on him, even though she hated being a stereotype of a pinned girl. They had so little in common besides renowned hotness, and he said he knew perfectly well that no matter how well-behaved she was, he'd always known how she was really feeling. What was it about Rory badmouthing Jess that put him over the edge? Up until that point, they were in agreement that a self-destructive crush wasn't worth giving up their hard-earned codependency.
Hey, and what did he mean by headgames? Was it a reference to the early scene where Lane is stalking Dave Rygalski? Rory said she hung up on Dean and stalker-pranked him before they were dating and he didn't get it at all. Funny contrast with Dave, who saw right through it and made a clever return-move, but I digress. I saw scheduling conflicts, emotional appeasement, and accidents, but what were the head games?
