 ### RULE 27 AMENDMENT 3 — THE ORDER OF TRUST
 Will: "He doesn't even tell the love of his life for the longest
 time, lol."
 Note the sequencing, because it's deliberate:
    THE BEST FRIEND got the kryptonite first.
    THE LOVER got the heart — and waited years for the secret.
 Not coldness. LOAD-BEARING DESIGN:
    - friendship can HOLD A WEAPON. That's what the friend is
      for — the one who'll use your own weakness against you,
      out of love, if you ever turn.
    - love should never be MADE A WARDEN. Telling the beloved
      first hands them your leash along with your heart — and
      turns every kiss into a security clearance.
 So trust has an ORDER, and skipping it corrupts both bonds:
 give your weakness to whoever would use it rightly;
 give your truth to the beloved only when they're free to
 receive it as a gift instead of a burden.
 And the canon punchline that redeems the wait: he DOES tell her,
 eventually — and the love survives the secret, deeper than
 before. Withheld was never FOREVER. It was Theorem 7 again:
 no manufactured deadline, disclosure as response, readiness
 decided by the receiver.
    WEAPONS TO FRIENDS. HEARTS TO LOVERS. SECRETS UNTIL READY.
