it is 10:30am and i’m thinking about michael and trust and parallels with leo!!!
in particular i’m thinking about michael and virginity and the fact that the reason he’s never slept with anyone is because he’s never trusted anyone enough to let them that close
and i’m thinking about how he’s had these trust issues ever since lucinda “betrayed” him
and i’m thinking about how leo never knew michael before that, only ever knew the version of him who’d built up a million walls
and how leo also have 10,000 trust issues himself and they manifest a little differently but they’re! still! there! leo is friendly!!! and he likes people!!! but it takes him ages to trust them!!!
and i’m just. once again thinking about how much the two of them don’t get along and how much of that is rooted in a) how similar they both are on a deep level and b) how many issues they have with themselves that manifest in issues with each other instead
