““You’re not allowed to want me.” “I’m not planning on it.” I lied, I lied, couldn’t you tell? I wanted you, the heat and flicker of your hands devouring me, the way every inch of my body seemed to melt when you pressed your lips between my shoulder blades. I wanted you, oh how desperately I wanted you. Boy made of fire, made of want that burned like a quickly dying flame. I would have donned wings and flown to you again for even the chance to feel you break me open. “You can’t fall in love.” “You’re not my type.” I lied, again and again. I was enthralled with you, the way you tasted like summer days and one night stands. There was something so addictive about you, about the way your hands were rough tugging on my hair, my skin, nails digging moons and shooting stars into my flesh. I would have become a galaxy at your fingertips if you wanted me to. “You’ll have to leave eventually.” “Only if you ask me to.” I’ve learned, since then, that it was never meant to be. Fate wrote our stories, threw us together as a warning: don’t give up your life for the boy who burns so bright. But I would live this life again just to feel your gasp of breath like a warm wind on my neck. just to feel your fingers graze my hips. We were destined to collide and tear each other apart, destined to crash and sink and destroy ourselves. Or maybe that was just me, I can’t remember. “I don’t want you anymore.” “Please don’t do this.” Don’t forget about me. For all the angels and stars that find their way to you, for the centuries to pass and lives to decay, don’t forget about the boy who only wanted to kiss the sun one last time.”

The Letters

They weren’t expecting the letters.

It started out as mentions on Twitter, then emails, then actual, physical letters.

Letters from kids all around the world.

Letters from kids like them.

Happy letters, sad letters, short ones and long ones.

They weren’t just letters, though. They were stories.

Stories of kids who came out years ago, and had finally found a family and a home.

Stories of kids who came out as soon as the news broke out, who gained the confidence to be true themselves because of what Henry and Alex had done, because of who THEY were.

Stories of kids who couldn’t come out, for fear of what could happen. Stories of hope, that because of them, things might change.

Sometimes the letters had gifts. Paintings, drawings, handmade crafts, candy, the entire Star Wars box set.

They couldn’t believe how much time and money people were willing to give them.

They couldn’t comprehend how much they changed the lives of others by simply telling their truth.

They couldn’t believe that they had actually done it.

They made history.

A/N: more word vomits you say? here’s one I wrote a little while ago. I am also currently watching “love, victor” and crying during every episode. lemme know what you guyd think :))

For those of you looking for more lgbt+ Latinx/Latine representation after watching Love Victor, I have a few peices of media I have consumed to suggest (names are in bold, text related to it is all spoiler):

One day at a time (show, 1st 3 seasons are on Netflix)

One of the main characters is a lesbian (don't worry she goes through a process figuring it out) and she's an activist against a bunch of bad stuff as well! The show is not only funny, they also go through a lot of deep issues and they also have a conservative religious background that they handle well. They also discuss Latinx/Latine culture in the show which I felt was important because although it's good not to have a character whose entire personality is based on stereotypical culture, not including their culture at all is hurtful as well.

Red, white and royal blue (book):

A fun bi disaster from Texas who falls in love with his rival and discovers his sexuality! Bonus: his mom is president (I cry will we ever get a female USA president) but she's not Latinx/Latine, his dad is. Warning: there is some nsfw content in it

Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe (book):

This is a beautiful love story between 2 Latinx/Latine boys and it really goes through the nitty gritty of the journey of sexuality and self identity and it's just so beautiful ok!!!

Please feel free to add onto this list, not only will I love any recs but I'm sure other people would too!

Edit: It has been brought up that all of these and the other recommendations are Latinx/Latine American. If you know any just Latinx/Latine lgbt+ media, please suggest them in the replies or reblogs!

I was just minding my own business when I thought about the conversation between Pez and Henry in the New Year's Eve

Henry: Pez we need to leave now

Pez: I don't want to leave now, you go to the hotel or something

Henry: Pez, we need to leave the country n o w

Pez: Henry, we don't need to leave, it's not like you kissed the first son

Henry:

Pez:

Henry:

Pez: YOU DID WHAT?

I always knew I wanted to draw this as a split screen moment — each of their bodies creating the parentheses with their respective bedrooms bleeding into each other — but it was my talented friend @penpanoply who had the idea of hand-lettering the quotations from Alex & Henry’s emails into the bedsheets between them. So she did! Be sure to click to view the close up of her perfect handlettering and the gorgeous sheet patterns she created!

“He rolls onto his side and listens, trails the back of his hand across the pillow next to him and imagines Henry lying opposite in his own bed, two parentheses enclosing 3,700 miles.” - Red, White, & Royal Blue by Casey McQuiston

It’s always a pleasure to collaborate with you, Jeska. Thank you again for your hand in this picture. I love it so much. ❤️💙

‘history, huh? bet we could make some’ and ‘you don’t make it fucking easy. but i’m in love with you’ and ‘on purpose. i love him on purpose’ and ‘your spine is a ridge i’d die climbing’ and ‘you and me and history, remember?’ and ‘you love so much bigger than yourself, bigger than everything. i can’t believe how lucky i am to witness it- to be the one who gets to have it, and so much of it, is beyond luck and feels like fate’ and ‘you had the absolute audacity to love me back. can you believe it?’ and ‘have i told you lately that you’re brave?’ and ‘henry kisses his mouth over and over again and says quietly, “you are good.”’
