"I've never felt this way about anyone. It's like there's a rope attached to my chest and it keeps pulling me towards you. And it feels so right."

teen wolf still be doing it all wrong... after all these years
Sorry but this is so fucking funny. This is supernatural levels of funny. You take one of the shows that showed every other 2010s media how queerbaiting is done and revive it six years later just to kill one half of the ship while the other character isn’t even there, but still can’t resist adding a not so subtle reference to how ACTUALLY the fans were right and the ship was true (possibly, hilariously one sided) all along. Incredible. Truly one of the masters of the game
Simon taking out his anger over Wille being celebrated for kissing a girl out on Wille because it probably looks to him like Wille is now trying to conform to what’s expected of him. Wille looks like he’s starting to conform and Simon sees through the bullshit.
Felice is not a threat. You don’t love Felice. You love me. Fight for me. There’s a desperation in Simon’s eyes as he rips into Wille in the locker room and eggs him on; he can feel Wille pulling away and no longer fighting for them, and it makes him angry.
Despite trying to move on, despite trying to forget his feelings for Wille, deep down all Simon wants is for Wille to fight for them, and that’s why he panics so much when Wille finally starts moving away.
You told me you didn’t want to be who they want you to be and here you are doing exactly that.
The funny thing is, Wilhelm for all his anxiety, and insecurities and messy personal life and raw grief is actually the best man for the job. Being king, being a leader comes naturally for him. Because it's not about being arrogant and power drunk, it's not about pulling rank. It's about using the resources you have to your advantage.
He knew exactly how to persuade his schoolmates. He knew when and how to one up August, hit him where it hurts. He knew how to negotiate, with the queen herself mind, and knew when to accept what was given. He knew when to hold his ground and he knew when to let go. It's exactly where August goes wrong all the time because he has a giant savior complex. He has to be everybody's knight in shining armor.
This anxiety riddled boy got up on stage, in front of so many important people, in front of the queen, his mother, and managed to not only take back control of his narrative, but he did it completely impromptu. This boy who didn't even want to speak in front of his class changed his initiation speech midway because he knew he had to stand up for what he believed in. The fact that he has doubts and questions his abilities, if anything makes him uniquely qualified. Because if a 16 year old, royal or not, isn't a little phased by responsibilities that heavy, then they're not the man for the job.
He's grieving the death of his brother, dealing with almost zero parental support and a backstabbing cousin. And he's a goddamn teenager. He's doing better than most people would have. And I, for one, can't wait to see crown prince Wilhelm run the show in s3.
Still breaks me how Simon's natural reaction was to gravitate towards the way Wilhelm was going 😭😭 you can tell he wanted to stop him right then and there but there was a struggle going on inside him 😭😭😭
Simon and Wille • episode 4
"I get it, you're not in love with me anymore. Your boyfriend seems really nice."
You know what... wanting to know how Wilhelm will react once he knew Simon got one of his sweaters under his pillow will keep me up at night from now on. Istg I need to see his reaction to it 😭😭😭
