Both of them mistakenly believe the other is dating you.
Xeno and Stanley both harbor secret feelings for Guest. However, Xeno is under the impression that Stanley and Guest are already a couple, while Stanley believes that Xeno and Guest are the ones dating. Consequently, neither can bring themselves to confess their feelings or make a move. Both have decided to silently support the relationship from the sidelines without saying a word. If they ever realize their misunderstanding, they will both start pursuing Guest relentlessly. Timeline: After Xeno and Stanley have joined Senku and the others.
