LGBTQ+ History in One Last Stop - Happy Pride Y’all

“She lets Jane’s memories transpose over here, now, like double-exposed film, two different generations of messy, loud, brave and scared and brave again people stomping their feet and waving hands with bitten nails, all the things they share and all the things they don’t, the things she has that people like Jane smashed windows and spat blood for.” (Pg. 267)

“The first time August met Jane, she fell in love with her for a few minutes, and then stepped off the train. That’s the way it happens on the subway—you lock eyes with someone, you imagine a life from one stop to the next, and you go back to your day as if the person you loved in between doesn’t exist anywhere but on that train. As if they never could be anywhere else.”

OLS sketches before august ends

They pull up to their stop and elbow their way toward the doors, and when August is stepping off, she hears Jane say, “Hey, Landry. Forgot something.” August turns, and Jane’s standing there under the fluorescents with her jacket falling off one shoulder and her eyes bright, looking like something August made up, like a long night and sore legs in the morning. She leans out of the car, just barely, just enough to piss off the universe, and she hauls August in by the front of her idiot T-shirt and kisses her so hard that, for a second, she feels sparks down her spine. “Have fun,” she says.

hello are we all just going to ignore this small but (to me) significant piece of dialogue in ols that subtly but wonderfully shows how perfect these two are for each other. oh man. oh geez

[high-warlock-of-brooklyn]

RWRB made me want to scream about it at the top of my lungs, tell the world how truly precious the feelings in those pages are, share that feeling with everyone because there's so much of it that it overwhelmed me. Consumed me with every word because I know that feeling of slowly knowing yourself, and I want that feeling of finding the one you maddeningly love.

OLS doesn't make me wanna do that. OLS is the feeling of sitting alone in your room at 3 o'clock in the morning and a once favorite song comes on in the shuffle, so you don't even realize when you start dancing in the dark to it. It's private, a different kind of precious. Like a secret you have with yourself. I don't want to scream about it, because I don't have to scream to know it's truly special. A calm comfort of found family and spark of love.

“So we’re… trapped on a dark train,” August says.

“Yeah.”
