“I’m going to take you home”
“Promise?”
“I promise!”
you know how i know erik would’ve been an awesome supportive big brother? when he was teasing wilhelm for staying at school he asked him if he met ‘someone’ and then continued to use gender neutral language for their entire conversation 💯🥺
the part in the football field scene where simon comes to get wille and after wille says “you’re here!” and “you came”, and then he holds simon’s face in his hands and just repeats “you’re beautiful” to him makes me melt
specifically thinking about that last scene in ep 2 because i really liked how it was done. when simon approaches wilhelm by the window and asks him if everything's okay, instead of the anxiety of being seen taking over, instead of maybe lashing out or creating distance between them, wilhelm relaxes a little. and asks simon if he's okay, and even physically leans closer. and then after simon kisses him and wilhelm says "i'm not..." and simon feels rejected and vulnerable and tries to leave before things might get bad, wilhelm makes sure that he doesn't. not half-heartedly, he's adamant. wait. you have to wait. grabs him by the shirt. please wait. and simon's shoulders are so tense but it feels like that i'm not [gay] might actually be something more like i'm not [sure how to do this. it's new]. he's still looking for connection, for closeness. despite the anxiety, there's something telling him he can't let it slip through his fingers. he doesn't want to
i was honestly getting so tired of 30 year olds being cast as 17 year old highschoolers with completely clear skin and then young royals showed up and i was like… oh
every sentence that came out from wilhelm when he was with simon or when it’s about simon was so beautiful like “thank you for being here.” “i don’t want to lose you.” “what if i just want to be with him and not say anything.” “you are so beautiful” “i’m trying to talk to you” “we are in this together.” “i want to be with you.” “you are the only one i can talk to” it was so genuine, it felt genuine. this is love, everything just comes so naturally.
& fuck august
