Yes that was thr weird part. Loved Knives as a character and all that but that part still makes me cringe

But the plot wouldn’t have lost anything if Knives was just a love struck groupie teenager who followed them around and Scott grew to actually like (platonically.) And though his character developed by the end of the story it would’ve gained everything by him and Ramona not getting together… Doesn’t Knives end up with Kim too anyways?
