2. Sophie didn't start to develop feelings for Keefe until in "Neverseen" when Sophie's heart would beat in a hummingbirds pace. They both spent a lot of times together that Sophie would go to Keefe advice about plans with the Blackswans in "Exile" and "Everblaze" to where Keefe would accompany Sophie on dangerous missions with Sandor. Keefe's first impression of Sophie was that she was special, amazing, and mysterious while Sophie thought Keefe was cool and handsome who liked to get into a lot of trouble. Though they later realize that those weren't the only things that defined them as both have tough times and aren't too invincible since they can easily break with too much emotional stress. Like when Sophie cried in "Exile" from all the responsibility handed down to her as she can barely keep up with it, and Keefe crying in "Neverseen" when he found out that there was a possible chance that his mother could be dead.

With their bond growing they began too ease up to each others comfort such as the pillow slumber parties they held in "Neverseen" when Keefe was depressed. They start to break down each other's walls as they see what they are truly are where both Keefe and Sophie are seen as scared and wavering people that sometimes don't know if they're doing the right thing or knowing what's right. Both characters become protective and worried of another are displayed all through out the series as they understand the pain that the other went through when Sophie sees Keefe's memories and when Keefe notices Sophie's emotions. Keefe almost even went recklessly to Ravagog to get the cure for the gnomes which Sophie was able to prevent since she knew too much about Keefe. Though she wasn't able to see Keefe planning to join the Neverseen because Keefe was doing it to keep her safe while getting out the enemies secret.

Also Sophie being a telepathic at a young age where she read people thoughts put a barrier around her as she barely socialized with any humans who probably thought about hurtful things. It's the reason why Sophie is oblivious to the love triangle or square between Fitz, Dex, and Keefe and Keefe understands that since he stated in the "Nightfall exclusive" that he would wait for Sophie until she returns his feelings. And Keefe being away with the Neverseen in "Lodestar" made Sophie miss him that everthing that would connect to Keefe she was reminded of him. She even starts to make jokes that reflected Keefe's action which starts to make Sophie understand why Keefe created jokes as it would lighten up the mood.
