immediately after an interaction: i have GOT to get more normal oh god i need to get more normal immediately i have to get more normal or they're going to hunt me down they're going to hunt me down and flay me for sport

during an interaction: and why not put a little spin on it? why not add some conversational zest?

the best thing you can do to a character make them averse to touch and absolutely starved for it

Ilya: would you still love me if I was a worm?

Shane: baby, of course. I would take such good care of you. Get you the nicest dirt I could. & I’d bring you to the rink every day so you could wiggle around on the ice :)

Ilya: okay :D would you still love me if I was bad at hockey?

Shane: Please don’t ask me that

yes i do ship those characters but i ship them in an infinitely more aroace way than you will ever be able to comprehend

[ravioliet]

they're not "dating" they're not "a couple" they're intrinsically connected and intertwined with each other for eternity. they're bound together like the stars. get with the program

Mutual pining is great, but you know what's even better? Mutual pining where they're both fully aware the feelings are requited, they just can't do anything about it for other reasons. Or maybe they technically could but they've had to choose not to, because of The Circumstances.

no matter how hard i try i will always be that little girl wondering why everyone is better friends with eachother than her and begging to be loved

the thing about heavy handed symbolism is that sometimes. it's fun.

I think one of the gentlest things in the world is when a friend just gets your weird little brain. like you say half a sentence and they finish it. you reference something incredibly niche from seven years ago and they’re already nodding. they understand your strange vocabulary for emotions that don’t have real words yet. it’s being seen and known and still loved. maybe especially because you’re known. god. what a gift.

"Ilya is the bad guy" "Shane is the bad guy" folks the only villain in the show is the fuckass bartender who told Shane he "can have whatever he wants" and then judged him for asking for ginger ale

disgusting

[shaneposting]

i truly do have so much to say about ilya’s bisexuality i’m just so bad at actually articulating it but

the way that people frame it as if him choosing shane means he’s not attracted to women anymore, or that he’s not attracted to anyone except shane anymore

the way people act like it would’ve been so easy for him to just choose to end up with a woman instead as if the only thing a bisexual person could possibly care about in a partner is 1. can i fuck them 2. can i avoid homophobia

the way people pathologise his history of casual sex to try and make out like it wasn’t his choice and it was never something he actually enjoyed

the way ilya being with women/talking to shane about women during the situationship is seen as inherently more slutty and fuckboy-esque than if he’d done the same but with men

the way people act that him choosing shane is proof that he’s actually gay bc no bisexual man would ever choose a man as their long term partner. the way people act like it’s a good thing bc thank god ilya isn’t one of those real bisexuals, the ones who cheat and lie and can never be satisfied with one partner and will always insist on forcing their partner into an open relationship or a threesome

the way ilya won’t read this shit but your bi friends will

bi ilya ❤️ bi monogamous ilya ❤️ bi ilya who loves shane and chose to build a life with him and is committed to him ❤️ bi ilya who is still attracted to women ❤️ bi ilya who is attracted to women more than he’s attracted to men ❤️ bi ilya who’s attracted to shane most of all ❤️ bi ilya who could’ve fallen in love with anyone but he fell in love with shane and chose him over and over again every single time ❤️
