This seems to be a typical Gundam "love triangle" though (well, more like relationship triangle)... Where the two girlfriends/reverse crushes/Newtype soulmates/shipping candidates for the main character never meet or met but rarely/never talk, and jealousy is never elaborated upon...
Refer to Four/Fa, Aina/Kikki, Lacus/Flay, Lunamaria/Stellar, Marina/Feldt, etc.... So I don't expect anything to blow up here.

Nothing may blow up, but it definitely irks the shippers.
Mainly because these kind of developments mean that the main character are typically too enamored by their first crush/NT soulmate/etc that they ignore the other girl for XX amount of episodes, until the other girl reappears only to die tragically ... And then suddenly the main character suddenly cares about the other girl. Plus with AGE being a generational story... I wouldn't be surprised if XX number of episodes = 10+ years.

I wouldn't be surprised if Dique remains celibate throughout this arc of Gundam AGE. I mean...look at him.
Spoiler for Virgin forever sidekick::
You really think Yurin would give up Flit for that? No, I think Yurin dies myself. This isn't Macross, it's Gundam afterall.

I'm totally for Yurin at this point because I see her as the Lalah Sune of the present day. Emily is more of a Frau for me (go for it Dique LOL).
I gotta say though, Gundam age has good group of characters. It makes me wonder if there will be romance on the bridge like Bright x Mirai....

Well, she's obviously going to develop feelings for him. She's the token female subordinate to the gruff captain for a reason.
But, since adult relationships are hardly ever anything other than background noise in most Gundam shows that aren't UC (Mu x Murrius was about a billion times better than Lacus x Kira, and look who got all the attention ), I wouldn't expect anything more than 10-15 episodes in, when this Flit arc is about to end and the going is tough and the odds seem totally against them, for those two to share a sweet, romantic look, from which the Captain will scream in his most GAR voice and scream the Diva to victory! On another note, it's good to see AGE is continuing on the storied Gundam tradition of letting military female crewmembers wear totally different uniforms. Now, to further cement Yurin over Emily, we can see one of them is definitely on the defensive when it comes to this triangle: Spoiler for Size:
