The Earth You Are

Young Royals fan fiction

[luminouscloudsworld]

Malin knows who is in Wilhelm's bed. Washed in sunlight. They were interrupted. The rest of the story unfolds from here. August's treachery, Sara's betrayal, the clash of class, jealousy, fury, hatred, longing, final resolution.

First love.

[luminouscloudsworld]

When they do this for the first time. So many first times, touching the body of the beloved.

[luminouscloudsworld]

How much more tender could this be? Light the color of honey, the boy worshiping the body of another boy, memorizing every shadow, every muscle. The wonder of a dream fulfilled.

[luminouscloudsworld]

Yes, this works. Mr Best Dressed.

[luminouscloudsworld]

They spend an inordinate amount of time together, lying on a bed. I'm sure it means nothing.

[luminouscloudsworld]

This is Edvin projecting mistrust, guardedness, disappointment and loneliness, his slightly open mouth, and the expression in his eyes. Imagine this young actor in 20 years...

[luminouscloudsworld]

Ah, nicely turned out, Edvin. i have nothing to add.

Again, the light, the contrasting colors, the outlined profiles, conveying more than mere words. There is heat and tension and anticipation. We and they are holding our breath. Enough! They've waited long enough.

He's looking at a naked Simon in his bed. Malin reminds him (them!) breakfast is almost over. Simon has to fake coming to school. They're bantering but it's a serious conversation. Hiding their relationship when all they want now is to be together. Malin at least keeps her mouth shut. There's so much at stake. Coming out. Class difference. The video they know nothing about but we, the audience, do. August the traitor.

For this moment, they are full of joy. We don't see this smile on Wilhelm's face very often, open, unforced, delighted.

Wilhelm's moment. The boy he likes is in his bed. After all their drama, and Wilhelm's drunken wandering on a football pitch, they are here. Simon rescued him. Wilhelm called him beautiful. They have both imagined this happening. Now they will make it real. Real and true. A declaration of their feelings for one another. Perfectly acted, some awkwardness and that perfect moment where they both acknowledge their young love. Timeless. Brilliant. Unmatched.

[luminouscloudsworld]

Uh-oh. About to have an argument with Simon. Edvin's eyes when he's angry, the set of his mouth, the churning going on in his gut. Even if he's chewing a nail and rubbing his chest-yikes.

[luminouscloudsworld]

He's about to get smacked by a very angry Simon. They were sniping at each other; jealousy, longing, grief, love, all in the mix.

[luminouscloudsworld]

He's in Simon's home, meeting Simon's mother, bathing in the warmth of Simon's environment. What a difference from the palace, a place of secrets, lies and decorum. Even his face is softer, lit from the side. Another effective and brilliant camera angle.

Also. Notice the image in a mirror-Malin, his security and minder, keeping tabs on our boy. I'm sure she knows what's going on between Wilhelm and Simon. Oppressive to have someone monitoring your every move. Sheesh.
