“angel doesn’t need a relationship, he needs a friend !”
some people are complaining about the fact that Husk said that Angel was correct in saying his life was wrecked. these people don’t have brains.
all angel has been told is to be okay. he needed somebody to tel him that they see that he’s not okay because he clearly struggles with his own feelings and identifying them on his own.
by saying that he knows Angel isn’t okay, Husk essentially brings Angel back down to earth. when somebody with as much trauma and as many mental issues as Angel is experiencing, especially with that episode / crisis he was having at the time of the song, they would need somebody to tell them that they are seen, that they aren’t crazy. they need to know that’s it’s okay to not be okay.
not to mention the fact that husk clearly needed it too, as he’s essentially shut himself off from all emotion and pushed away anybody in fear of getting hurt. he’s accepted that he’ll be at a constant low, and he needed to feel like there were others there with him, that he was seen as well.
when all they’re told is that they’re okay it feels like dismissal. it feels like belittlement. but when they’re told that they are seen and accepted regardless or their issues , it feels like relief.
to Angel , it feels like he isn’t required to keep up his fake persona. he’s not required to advertise the porn star lifestyle. he’s able to be Anthony. he’s not forced to be anybody but his true , authentic self and he doesn’t need to apologize for it.
he’s been trapped in a world where he needs to be okay constantly. he’s not allowed to let his guard down or he’ll get hurt. he’s not allowed to be in pain.
to Husk , it feels like someone finally understands his struggles. his pains. his addiction , his complications with selling his soul. he feels like he is finally not alone. not to mention the relief he most likely felt after seeing who Anthony truly was. his boundaries are no longer being ignored. he’s able to have insight into his life and see the similarities between himself and Anthony.
they understand each other on a level that others don’t. and even if others understand it , whether it be Charlie seeing their pain or addiction from the outside , or Cherri experiencing addiction and unhealthy coping mechanisms first hand , they aren’t able to have a heart to heart.
Charlie can’t because she hasn’t experienced it.
Cherri isn’t ready to give up the life because it is all that she knows. she hasn’t accepted that she needs to get better , therefore she can’t exactly help Angel cope
Husk has both experienced it and knows how to cope due to lots of self reflection , not to mention seeing others in states of vulnerability.
they’re unapologetically able to be themselves in a safe environment. that’s the whole point of the song , and if you can’t see that , that’s on you.

I think the fandom has unanimously agreed we just want Husk and Angel to get a chance to relax and nap. So here's 2 minutes of the boys... and some other residents of the hotel, napping.

I want Angel to take Husk shopping, and a musical number like this happens:
I can’t be the only one who thinks Husk looked hot, in his overlord-self’s clothes, right?
And surely Angel shouldn’t miss out on seeing Husk dressed like that again. They both deserve good things.
