carl, 29, from dublin, tech entrepeneur, thinks “love island” is the future of dating
i must admit, at first, carl wasn’t my favorite. it took me many moments to do his route and find this gem among other boys.
he became a huge part of this project and mostly because he was being himself during the entire season.
the awkwardness, the fear of commitment, the cat/dog debate, his job and just in general, his views on love, friendship, intimacy and life.
his goals, his personality, his arc. everything about him became something i needed to explore on his story, and i don’t regret this decision one bit!
‘too much to calculate’ a pos-villa story where carl has a hard time to balance work and a new relationship. ghosts from his past will make an appearance. also, friends from the villa, bobby, gary, chelsea and noah are included in several chapters of this fic, and there’s a lot going on!
title: it came from a chapter i wrote back in january. when you and carl dance together, at chelsea’s party, he says “i love you… too much to calculate.” i liked the ring it had to it, and decided it had to be the title.
