That so, or are you trolling?

Spoiler for shinobu:

I know that there's a scene that's about how he realizes(?) that he and Shinobu are always going to be together or something like that and that he might as well get to know her. During a bath, I believe. But here is somthing I never quite got. What does Araragi see her as? And she him? I know nothing about her other than the revenge rampage of the chinese zombies chapters.

I know you adore Shinobu, but don't go trolling on me, Omimon.

Also, I have a question about Hanekawa.

Spoiler for hanekawa:

She said she loved Araragi, but why did she say it? Did she think she had a shot? She knew she didn't so she got it out of her chest?
And why was she rejected? Because Araragi loved Senjougahara, because for him she was on a pedestal, she loved both of them the same way but Senjougahara more, he didn't love her that way, what?
According to Bake and Kuro, he didn't love her but felt greatly indebt to her, hence respect, pedestals, and the very notion that she could be in love with him was completely rejected by him, at first, in Bake.
It's just that I never got the feeling that their relationship, from Ararari's POV at least, was anything more than platonical.
And also because he said in Bake that he couldn't sacrifice himself to make the cat go away partly because of Senjougahara.
