- I’m betting Eli got like 90% of his sweaters as presents from Demetri
- Demetri’s definitely given him super nerdy ones too, but pre S1 he’s too self-conscious to wear them to school D:
- Prior to the show, I feel like they definitely (discreetly) held hands when they could get away with it, partly to calm Eli down when he was on the verge of a panic attack or a meltdown
- But in high school it got harder and harder to do it without kids being even more awful to them D: (which is why I think they opted for slightly more socially acceptable shoulder touches instead)
- When they start dating, they bring back the hand-holding and Demetri is INSUFFERABLY shameless about it
- Like he will never let go of Eli’s hand ever, he’s a clingy little nuisance
- Now that Demetri’s gotten a confidence boost, he feels comfortable giving anyone who shoots him and Eli dirty looks the most threatening death glare you can imagine
- Like “you wanna say something about me and my boyfriend? I dare you :)”
- The first time Miguel sees it he’s actually kind of scared
- Miguel also calls them saps
- But he’s also really happy they finally figured their shit out, because you dun best believe he was picking up on those Vibes the second he first sat down at that cafeteria table
- Johnny’s mind is completely blown by the concept of bisexuals
- Like he has a vague idea of what a “beard” is (he assumed, correctly, that this is what Yasmine was from the jump), but when he finds out Moon wasn’t actually a beard and Eli actually does like girls too, his head just about explodes
- “WAIT, YOU CAN DO THAT??? YOU CAN WANT DICK AND BOOBS???”
- Just wait until someone tells this poor man about the concept of polyamory
