• Jason liked to write, when Peter was helping clean out his part of the dorm he found pages and pages of writing. Jason wrote about a perfect world where he and Peter could be open about their relationship, he wrote about how he felt about Peter. They were just scraps of paper. Some were perfectly formatted paragraphs while others were “I love him.” the notes were tucked in every possible place, a few longer ones were under the mattress or in the pillow case while others were being used as book marks and hidden in drawers.
• Peter’s favourite thing to draw was Jason, he has 2 sketchbooks dedicated to Jason.
• Peter kept as many of Jason’s hoodies/sweatshirts as the McConnells would allow.
• Peter didn’t sleep for the first few days after Jason passed. He would lay in Jason’s bed and read Jason’s writing.
• Matt tried to apologise to Peter right before the funeral, while Matt talked Peter shook his head and walked away. Peter was glad Matt felt remorse or guilt but he couldn’t handle thinking about how preventable Jason’s death was.
• Nadia sat with Peter while he was cleaning the dorm, she stayed in the room overnight a few times when Peter was inconsolable.
• Peter grew to resent the church and when he finished his schooling he started a foundation to help queer kids in the same position that Jason was in. (Kind of like the Trevor project)
“all your life you wanted men and when you got it up to have them who knew it could end your life” is such a devastating line to me because marvin spent so many years of his life aggressively repressing his attraction toward men and when he finally lets go of what he was taught about being a Real Man he contracts this deadly disease from his lover. and still he doesn’t blame whizzer and doesn’t regret any of the time they spent together. are you kidding.
Is it me or is Bare like an old friend who you can go months without seeing and then when you do its like no time has passed and they're just there for you.
act one and in trousers is about restriction and perfection and act two is about family and sharing and being yourself and being softer mentally emotionally and physically and more comfortable and you can see it in the costume design and you can see in how they change the way they talk about food
