Carla: how about some nice fluffy stuff for my birthday
me: simon x wille and number 8 (or 10 😚)
thank youuuuu~! 💜 i see what you did there, but i'll take it. 😉
8. What they argue about
i think simon gets really defensive about, like, a ton of things. much like in the show, i think there are certain circumstances that wille just doesn't GET, because of how different/privileged his life has been, and simon tries to not be judgmental about it but he doesn't always manage it. also, even when wille DOES get it, he often thinks the best way to deal with it is being diplomatic, whereas simon is much more black-and-white about how these things should be dealt with, believes that there are things you can't compromise on, which puts him at odds with wille. he also gets upset with wille's habit of putting himself down or thinking he's not good enough for certain things, especially if wille closes himself off and outright refuses to do things out of fear of failure.
wille, on the other hand, feels simon pushes himself too far past his own limits, to his detriment. he doesn't mind that simon is a carer, a giver-- that's one of the things he loves about simon-- but he gets upset when simon gives so much, does so much to help other people, that the stress starts taking a toll on him, or he forgets to take care of himself, or neglects their relationship. it bothers him when simon chooses to carry everything on his own shoulders rather than leaning on him for support, especially when he doesn't tell him what's wrong or that something IS wrong. wille can also be a bit possessive, which he's working on, but also when it happens simon tends to double down on it, which only bothers him more. in fact, simon's tendency to get all sarcastic/passive-aggressive when they argue is often a point of contention.
