Doing this RP made me realise something: I don't do romance playing female characters very well. I keep thinking about Mindy and Gavin and how we can move forward their thing, but when I write her being interested in Gavin it feels bland and forced for me. 

For some reason writing the male in an FxM is easy for me. With MxM I also never had issues. But trying to write the female is somehow a lot harder for me. You'd think being one would make it easier, but no. It feels a bit awkward for me and I don't know why, but that's how it is.

In our dragon riders RP, I like Rachel, but I don't see her pairing up with one of guys. Meria likewise, she has an off-screen husband somewhere so she doesn't have to be romantically available. 

In short, I suck at writing females in romantic pairings, and I hope you won't mind if we would move away from pairing Mindy with Gavin. They can still have that crush, and I'd still like Gavin to be awestruck when Mindy shows her new dress, but if you agree I'd rather not built it into a long-term relationship.

I'm sorry, I know you were looking forward to pair Gavin with a girl :(
