I mentioned it to Nyles and I’m still laughing at the sheer contrast between how Thrixe would confess to Yumech, if he ever did, versus how he would actually want to confess.
Thrixe’s actual confession: quiet, lowkey, calm with the complete expectation of rejection. done this way to ensure Yu isn’t uncomfortable.
Thrixe internally: I love you so much, did you know? I love the sound of the air in your lungs and the way your eyes squint and how your hands move and the way you walk. I love your dedication and your kindness and the way you make the world more alive. You are the most beautiful of songs! I could say only your name and make it music! You are one of the greatest wonders I’ve ever known!
