She was welcoming and perfect in his arms. He kissed her, buried his face in the sweet hollow of her neck. Her curls brushed his cheeks, and he felt that if he could just hold her a little longer, every wound, every hurt, every bad thing would melt away.

the fact that i'm no longer the same age as the protagonists of novels and films i once connected to is so heartbreaking. there was a time when I looked forward to turning their age. i did. and i also outgrew them. i continue to age, but they don't; never will. the immortality of fiction is beautiful, but cruel.

“It was something adults said all the time. “You'll change your mind when you're older. You never know what might happen. You'll feel differently one day.” As if we teenagers knew so little about ourselves that we could wake up one day a completely different person. As if the person we are right now doesn't matter at all.”
- Loveless, Alice Oseman (2020)

I know we all love protective husk, but I love the idea of Husk being supportive of his boyfriend just fucking up some dudes. Like people walk in and see Angel and Husk together. They taunt Angel thinking Husk is gonna fight with them like some guard dog. Angel glances at Husk, Husk smiles and nods. He leans back and takes a sip of his drink. Angel stands up with six tommy guns. Angel quickly gains the reputation of a man not to fuck with. Husk gives Angel strength to stand up for himself and I think that's way more powerful of a concept.
