There's nothing to forgive you for.

i was fully wrong about how ee handled the whole sa situation and yay for that. but even once it became clear they were taking it seriously, i didn't expect the reveal so soon, i thought it would be on thursday maybe. curious to see where it goes

[halfwaysincere]

callum, soft sweet callum, who takes his job very seriously, straight up wished death on a man for what he did to johnny. how can people doubt he loves johnny

[halfwaysincere]

i don't love that they made the bad guy gay and flouncy but i do love that they made him a posho

[callumhighways]

Hey, it's gonna be okay.

[halfwaysincere]

remember how callum was with Whitney’s originally and her past abuse? I can see callum maybe talking to johhny about supporting a partner when they’ve been asaulted via bringing up whitney, I know crazy idea but Whitney’s abuse was common knowledge and maybe off screen him and Whitney talked about it when they were together in that time period. It would also kinda fit cause whitney when she was going through the grooming never clicked till afterwords that it was abuse. Similar to johhny right now.

ooh, interesting thought! that could also work

[halfwaysincere]

I'm a little uneasy about how the show is positioning Johnny's "choice". Not necessarily inside the show because we haven't seen next week but EE twitter's posts on the sl don't hit the right tone for me.

It really makes me wonder how they're going to handle it on Monday and Tuesday.

Putting that aside, I wonder how Johnny and Callum continue their relationship from here on. Essentially saying that Johnny was willing to be SA'd out of love for Callum and then have Callum feel guilty over that seems like a really odd choice for a relationship we've barely seen and which his only 4 months old.

That's pretty poisonous but I suppose we'll see how it plays out.

(have not watched today's ep yet but) i think on some level this story is meant to show us where they stand as a couple. it's a pretty deep cut so want to paint it as a pretty serious relationship. the timing or pace of it is weird, sure, but i think that was the goal with this. whether it works or not depends on how it plays out, i'd say

[halfwaysincere]

I don't think Lewis was public knowledge but even if it was Johnny wasn't around when it happened. So somebody would have to have told him.

i feel like there's nothing a carter doesn't hear about on the square lol, but i don't necessarily expect johnny to know what cal is talking about if he mentions ~something. cal can pretend he's familiar with the topic through being a copper, can talk to kathy about it pretending the johnny situation is from his job, there are lots of ways it can come up that's not really breaking ben's trust. but it would be very weird to me for them to indeed go for the sa angle, have cal think he's been cheated on (or even just johnny feel like he's cheated on cal when he tells him), and then fully ignore that cal has been here before in this exact situation
