seeing charlie spring have actual scars in the comic pannels is so validating. idk i think it would have been almost painful if he didnt. like that representation was only thrown in there for drama instead of actual rep. i obviously dont know what they might do in the show, i just know that it was really validating to see, even if faint. my scars are still extremely visible 10+ years later. theyre a part of me and i feel they are a part of charlie too, even if a negative in general it is still important.
idk i just love heartstopper and am so glad to have media i feel seen in. all self harm in media is always dramatic and a one time thing. charlie has actual relapse and isnt just trying to die. its self harm, not suicide. i never wanted to die, just hurt. and i finally see a character i feel SEEN in.

THEY GET SAT NEXT TO EACH OTHER AND ONE IS GAY AND EVEN THOUGH THE OTHER DOESN’T KNOW HE’S BI, THEY END UP FALLING FOR EACH OTHER. THERE IS A LONG JOURNEY OF SELF ACCEPTANCE WHILE THEY KEEP THEIR RELATIONSHIP A SECRET FROM ALL THEIR FRIENDS, BUT ENDS UP TAKING HIM BY THE HAND IN FRONT OF THE WHOLE SCHOOL…

I almost screamed out of joyment when Nick said "I hate you because you literally assaulted him" because even tho that's obviously what happened, it's never explicitly said in the comics and i just loved that someone finally said what happened with its correct words, it was so special to me

I don’t care what the reviews say: I love the teachers’ romance. Heartstopper is about queer coming of age, and Mr. Farouk’s queer coming of age was delayed. Many of us experienced this. His story belongs.

Okay but I'm so glad they adapted possibly my favorite scene from all of the comics, which I wasn't surprised about but was still grateful for. By which I mean, the scene where Nick communicates that he's not ready for sex and even after they agree on wanting to but not being ready, Charlie tells him he'd only want to have sex if Nick did and would never want to do it if Nick never wanted to. Even while knowing he wants to have sex with Nick one day, he won't hesitate to give up that idea if it's not mutually desired, because it's about intimacy with Nick and not sex for the sake of itself.
The first time I read that scene in the comics, my ace heart sang. It's one of those moments where Alice Oseman being aroace really shines through, because for allos sex is just a given and the lack thereof would beba deal breaker. I'm not saying someone would be wrong for wanting sex in a monogamous relationship, but it feels refreshing and safe to me as an ace person to see two people who feel the attraction but still prioritize each other and their relationship and normalize the presence of sex as a discussion and not an assumption.
This sort of thing is exactly why I desperately want more romance written by aspec people across the spectrum.

Everyone’s talking about the upcoming bits of Heartstopper that are going to make them v emotional when they see them on screen, but no one is talking about Charlie innocently Googling how to tell someone I love you while Nick is worriedly Googling eating disorders. THAT is what is going to kill me. That juxtaposition just BREAKS ME EVERY TIME.
