a couple months earlier this year, maybe jan-feb? or we can go last year if that's better. it would've been more of a "loose" relationship situation to be fair. like they weren't seeing other people after a few weeks but syd didn't make a big thing of it or really use the word boyfriend because he's always startled by the idea of getting held down and just kinda let it fizzle out by asking if it was cool to see other people
