caleb knows that there’s an insane number of people that are currently living on earth — seven billion, if he’s going to guess — so he doesn’t constantly have his guard up, WAITING for the day that he finds the other. one hundred and twenty-three (nearly twenty-four) years later, he doesn’t think he could have been prepared for how he turns and nearly gets the breath KNOCKED right out of him — he’s sure it would have been more dramatic if he actually breathed on a regular basis. he can’t help but watch them for a moment , trying to make sure that it’s them before he makes a move to walk towards them. ❝ you’ve updated from yer old clothes! ❞ not the best thing to say to somebody after you ABANDONED them, but the best for a touchy subject, he believes.
“it’s just... you don’t get it--- you’re never gonna get it.” they run their hands through their hair, trying desperately to find this perfect way to explain how they’re feeling. but, hugo’s not going through a simple conflict... it’s major, and can’t be easily described to others. “ever since i came back it’s been so HARD... i’m at war with myself over who i really am, and no matter how hard i try to stop it, i can’t. because there’s no end in sight when i’m this messed up. i just-- i’m an it, not a ‘who’.” he’s overwhelmed-- hugo rarely gets so open about his internal struggles, but this time it got to be too much to hold in and he was no longer able to without a full scale breakdown. not that this isn’t far from that. “i’m supposed to be a boy, i’m not supposed to wear skirts and knee highs and makeup, i’m gross and weird and it’s not alright anymore.”

tristan drummed his fingers against the steering wheel as he waited for the light to change, casually glancing at elliot every now and then in the periphery of his vision. he felt refreshingly light -- as if he weren’t polluted what that heavy-empty feeling that typically consumed him. that was the best part of a high, he supposed. not feeling how sad you actually are. the light changed, and the car lurched forward, his fingers still drumming as he sang along to the song they were listening to. “et chaque soir que je m’endors et te cerre contre moi...” it was nice to have the blond around without having to lie and sneak out at some overwhelmingly large event. to have it be something simple that they didn’t have to explain to anyone else. “hear me out -- i say, fuck manhattan, let’s drive out to my dad’s place in the hamptons. ‘cause no one’s there, so.” he said the last word as if that explained everything, as if that justified leaving the city (where there were things to do) and driving three hours to visit an empty beach house.
