Part of why I decided to lean into Harrow accidentally cucking anything with SQX is how funny it was to me to imagine (spoiler) Gideon's soul trapped inside Harrow's body like why are you having this horrible victorian romance with a yandere when one of the hottest girls here is clearly into you??? What a cruel person Harrow is. Gideon would just think she was really beautiful and fun and kind and if she was here would have simped hard for her and beat the crap out of Ming Yi for making her sad by eating a dude.
But yeah she really liked SQX a lot. Molly and SQX were the two people who unlocked 'hug me when I cry' after week 1 CYOA, which is a really significant thing for her; it's kind of a running thing with her that she's absolutely terrified of being vulnerable with people but also wants to be comforted very badly, so once someone has successfully gotten her to allow it she just imprints on them. SQX was one of the ones who navigated that convo well enough to just instantly S rank Harrow. This is why Harrow was so super aggro towards SQX about both drinking pre-execution and about not telling her Ming Yi was framed; she's just someone who doesn't know how to handle having strong feelings towards someone very well, and SQX unlocked hers too early and she didn't feel like she had enough control over the situation or that they were returned in the same intensity.
At first, Harrow actually big sister zoned SQX pretty hard? Like she thought she was beautiful but really only saw it platonically because when she found out she was a goddess, Harrow's feelings were sort of. . . Harrow's current canonpoint has her living with God and various other immortals (saints, but they're basically the same as a pantheon) and she (spoilers) is also in the process of ascending but it's going badly. And they're all really, really cruel to her, ranging between actively trying to kill her to total, blatant apathy towards her death. So she latched onto SQX when she learned she was someone who had ascended to godhood a little in the sense of like, this is what I wish it was like, I wish there was someone as nice as this who cares about me and cares about people in general.
But over time she stopped big sister zoning her because she came to saw her more as a person, with her own fears and vulnerabilities and insecurities, and their relationship shifted to something a little more balanced, with Harrow feeling like SQX cared for her back to the same degree she cared for her and valued the relationship in return. She always had a bit of a crush but never intended to act on it because Harrow for reasons was really determined not to ship here and she'd already fallen a little bit into one, so there was really no chance of her trying to add to it once Virrow was sort of happening. She did try a couple times to shoot her shot in terms of indulging with her but she's an incredibly awkward nerd who has no idea how to do that and it failed spectacularly every time. That thread where she brought up that maybe she should be sleeping around more and then they ran out of texts haunts my dreams.
As for the murder reveal, she'd felt for a while that SQX was hiding something, though SQX admitting to her sad backstory did throw her off the trail a little. Once she heard the circumstances she was truly like. Well, good, sounds like you saved Eleanor from becoming furby juice, but also I want to fight Envy behind a Wendy's for asking you to do this when there were so many other people here who could have been asked who wouldn't have tortured themselves over it. (She knows that there's probably a reason, she's just fighty. Fortunately she loves Envy too, so it'll be fine).
Happy for her that she's going back to Fodlan. Harrow will stay in touch and if she's even in danger she'll be right there and she ain't afraid of no ghosts. The second she meets Gideon, Gideon will try to hit on her.
