in an effort to remember if in the flesh (2013) has an opening theme or not i am halfway through the first episode for the first time in about a decade and this show really was like. what if you were gay and eighteen and you killed yourself because your best friend/boyfriend died after enlisting in the army to prove his masculinity to his homophobic dad (you feel it's your fault he's dead, that you somehow infected him with your own softness, your own queerness) and then years later you come back in the fucking zombie apocalypse and you get cured of zombieism!! but then suddenly you're alive again and you have to go back to your shitty hometown and the rot that killed you is still there and now the people who hated you for being gay now hate you (& will kill you) for being a zombie too and there's nothing you can do about it. AND you're still eighteen. kieran walker is stronger than me i would be biting people <3
