When I picture you happy, I see you in your own apartment somewhere outside of the palace and a desk where you can write anthologies about queer history. And I'm there, using up your shampoo and making you come to the grocery store with me and waking up in the same damn time zone with you every morning. When the election is over, we can figure out what to do next. I would love to be in the same place for a bit, but I know you have to do what you have to do. Just know I believe in you.
Love you. Tell Bea I said hi.

okay so my faves Ben Platt (who btw has SO many songs that remind me of FirstPrince and are just amazing in general so you should go listen to it all now if you haven’t) and Noah Galvin just got engaged 😍
and their posts on Insta about it just made me think so much of FirstPrince
like they both posted and most of the pics they posted were the same and some were definitely posed so it felt very deliberate and planned which makes sense because they’re fairly famous people:
but it didn’t feel any less genuine, and they also did some more candid pics and different pics each:
and did their own captions, like they put their own spins on it,
and I feel like Ben’s would be Henry:
and Noah’s would be Alex:
and Ben’s fam posted this about Noah and I feel like both Henry’s and Alex’s families (blood and found) would feel that way about each other:

In pretty much every RWRB first time fic I’ve read, Alex enters the story with tons of sexual experience with women, so his first time with Henry is revelatory for his sexuality, but there’s always that “the mechanics are pretty similar” moment.
I want a virgin Alex. I want an Alex who has been living his life to this point always picturing his first time as being with a woman, all his fantasies leading there if only he can get out of his own head and forget about having to be PERFECT. That was his downfall with Nora: He wanted her, would dry hump with her into oblivion, but when it came time to go farther he couldn’t stop thinking about how he wouldn’t measure up.
And then when he crashes into Henry, he doesn’t just realize that he’s completely into men too, he’s into THIS man; this man who challenges him and pushes him and leads him so gently and inexorably into every part of his sexuality. Who has experience, a LOT of it, and uses it to drag Alex out of his insecurities and pin him inside his own body. Alex doesn’t have to be perfect for Henry; he just has to be good for him. And oh, how Henry makes it easy to be good for him.

Dethentines 2024 Day 1: "OTP after Army of the Doomstar"
“Skwisgaar is completely broken after the events of the movie. He cant do the “will they, wont they” charade anymore and needs to find out if all his feelings are reciprocated or not.
Admitting this all in private, hearing a raw, endless flow of emotions and watching Skwisgaar break down in front of him, Murderface knows exactly what the guitarist is trying to say. He’s ready to push past his fear and take the biggest risk of his life by verbalizing the word he hears intertwined throughout Skwisgaar’s confession.”
REJOICE it is complete. This is the first kiss the two share after a slow burn spanning the entire series. I put so much love into representing emotions through the colors and the purpose behind all the flowers, there’s so much to them that I am yet to depict.
Some details about the flowers:
the bleeding hearts (upper left) represent unconditional love.
red roses obviously mean passion.
pink camellia mean longing for someone.
the yellow primrose is also the sacred flower of the norse god of love, Freya, it symbolizes resurrection and being unable to live without that person.
the purple anenome are protection from evil. they appear in the love story of Venus and Adonis, some versions are grown from her tears as she cried over his body, and another version is its growth from his seeping blood. Murderface plays the role of Adonis because he doesnt realize that Venus loves him beyond the flesh, and Skwisgaar as Venus is yet to confess.
I hope you all like it, I took more time than I'd anticipated, but Skwisface is extremely special to me and I wanted to make something just as big.

so i went out for dinner tonight and my server’s name was Lynden:
which is a name i’ve never heard before and i thought it was pretty
but also it immediately made me think of RWRB and how their first kiss was under the linden tree
so then i thought, what if when Alex and Henry have kids, they have a girl and name her Lynden because of that?!
because they’d want a unique name
a) just because they think it’s cooler than a common name but also
b) bc Henry never thought he’d get a choice for shit like that before Alex came around (of course he also thought he’d have to have them with a woman, but that’s a whole other subject way too sad for this post), and
c) to spite Henry’s grandmother if she’s still around by then, and Phillip, who think Henry’s children should have more traditional names (we know Alex loves being contrary, and i think Henry would agree in this case lol)
((EDIT because i just realized this totally randomly last night: it also sounds like “London” so that’s a nice small tribute to Henry’s home
and the only other time i’ve heard a version of this name is the male “Lyndon” of the president LBJ, and I have no idea if he was a good president but it is presidential/political which we know is kind of Alex’s thing, but more importantly, the lakehouse Alex loves is on Lake LBJ, so that would add a lot of meaning for him too))
and like a lot of people, i always hc’d they’d have kids, but didn’t have my heart set on specific names other than Arthur if they have a boy, after Henry’s dad
(and maybe calling him a shortened version of it, like Artie, because it’s cute but also to still differentiate a little even though Henry’s dad’s not around for them to have name mix-ups [lol but also it’s getting sad again sorry])
((EDIT because i just realized this totally randomly last night: i’ve also now heard the idea from someone of doing “Elena” because it’s after Alex’s mom but a more Hispanic version and i really like that, and they could call her something for short to match Artie and to help differentiate… but Ellie would be to close to Ellen, and i don’t think i really like Laney… but anyway, at first i was thinking Lynden could be a middle name, but also i realized Catherine and Catalina are similar, so if they could figure out some combo/middle ground for that, that could be a middle name to name after June even though she goes by June lol and Henry’s mom. so maybe they just need more than one daughter lol. and then maybe with the first names, they wouldn’t need all the last names? because i’d figured Alex would want to keep both of his but the only one that matters to Henry is Fox, so they would both change theirs to/have their kids be Claremont-Diaz-Fox? but that’s still such a mouthful lol))
but now i really like this one!
(it’s not too “stupid modern baby names made up by suburban moms,” is it? [tried to link a post there, but it didn’t work in the original post or in replies or in a reblog, so I’m gonna put a screenshot of the link here so maybe you can c&p if you’re on mobile and have the newer feature of being able to c&p text from screenshots, which is like my favorite thing ever lol, or type from scratch:])
