I am not saying that blacksun cant happen both Blacksun and Bumblebee have very valid points for and against, and I would argue that Blake would need to be in Mistral for most of Vol 5, her father would have to handle the WF (and honestly be better suited to do so) in Mengarie, the "my hero" remark could have just as easily been humoring him to help him feel better and as a show of grattitude, as it could be anything romantic. Blake has opened up to Yang just as much as she has opened up to Sun, in Volume 2 when they were discussing why they all chose to be huntresses, Yang specifically tailored her statements to bring Blake up, and downplay herself, and it worked, and she opened up about Adam a little, the darkest part of her past, In Vol 3 its Yang's being tricked into excessive force that leads Blake to open up more about Adam. that entire scene in Vol 3 is loaded with more than friend emotions, friends make you laugh and blush, when they screw up it is easy to look past, Blake was hurt and affraid and that hurt Yang more than anything, the only time we ever see Yang in tears, and more importantly she was willing to put her fears asside and trust Yang. And remember it was Yang who got Blake to go to the dance, not Sun. Love hurts, and Blake's biggest hurts other than leaving her family involved Yang. Blake undoubtedly knows that as of Vol 3 Yang's feelings for her gave her the power to emotionally destroy Yang, so if she didn't at least somewhat reciprocate those feelings, why didn't she push her away before it got to that point? And again she almost certainly reciprocates those feelings as otherwise the events of Vol 3 "Fall" wouldn't have hurt her as much.
