Masterlist
NHL Masterlist
I watch the two players through my phone screen, their polished shoes carrying them past me. My finger turns off the recording and I watch as it replays the scene.
“How’d it turn out, Y/N?” Nils asks, briefly stopping next to me to watch the video.
“Probably the same as every other video that she takes of us,” Elias mutters.
I can practically feel the disapproving look that Nils gives him.
“It’s kind of my job,” I murmur back, adding a quick caption on the video about Sweden before posting it.
My soles push me into a standing position and my body turns around. Nils is still paused next to me, probably waiting for me to start walking so that we can walk in together, while Elias is standing a few feet away, shifting from one foot onto the other and glaring at me with impatience.
I look around for a saving grace- and I find it in the form of a 5’10 defenseman.
“I, uh, I actually have to talk to Quinn about something,” I stutter out an excuse.
Nils frowns at me, clearly telling that it’s a lie, but Elias is already moving before anything else can be said, and Nils is forced to follow behind his friend.
I breathe a sigh of relief as soon as the taller Swede enters through the doors into the building and a laugh echoes through the parking garage.
“You don’t actually have to talk to me about something, do you?” Quinn questions.
“No,” I confess, “I just needed to leave that situation ASAP.”
“He’s Swedish, it’s just how they are,” he responds to my unanswered question.
It’s his response everytime Elias is rude to me- which is often. Ever since I joined the Canucks last year as their social media coordinator, Elias has been cold and distant towards me.
It started small at first. He wouldn’t respond to my hellos, he would begrudgingly agree to be in videos and photos to post online, then comment that he was only doing it for the fans. But over time he’s become ruder. He’ll make snide comments whenever he gets the chance and at times he’ll even decline being in photos or videos just so that he doesn’t have to interact with me.
I don’t know what I did wrong.
I’ve been kind to him since the beginning, even now when he’s being mean to me I won’t be mean back to him.
Quinn doesn’t know what I did, Brock doesn't know what I did, and Nils doesn’t know what I did wrong and they’re his three closest friends here. They keep telling me that I should ask him and have an honest conversation with him about our feelings, but I’m a non confrontational person, so that’s my last resort.
For now I’ll just deal with the little quips here and there.
“Good luck tonight, Quinn.”
“Thanks,” he grins at me.
What I don’t see is Elias standing across the room from us, eyes locked on the interaction and gleaming with jealousy.
~
“Great job tonight, boys,” I hear Conor cheer from all the way across the bar. It’s obvious that he’s already had one too many drinks.
Samantha, the graphic designer for the Canucks, and I roll our eyes with smiles at the interruption, returning to our conversation about our plans over the short winter break.
“Hey, Y/N,” Conor shouts.
My eyes shift back to the tall man, watching as he holds up a pink drink and shakes it around with a cheeky smile. I give him a thumbs up with a laugh.
“What’s that about?” Samantha asks.
“I’ve been trying to get him to try this drink for months now, it’s really good,” I explain.
“Looks like someone’s a little jealous,” she sings.
My lips curve downwards at her words and my eyes scan around the room for someone who looks jealous. They pass over Quinn and Nils playing darts, then Brock ranting enthusiastically to a few of his teammates, and over Elias who sits quietly next to Brock, gaze downcast while he sips on his drink.
“Who?” I question, confused.
“Elias,” she says, like it’s obvious.
I watch Elias as his gaze flickers up and onto Conor, eyebrows scrunched and teeth clenched like he’s studying him. He stares at the right winger for a little bit, then his eyes flicker over to me. As soon as his blue eyes connect with mine, they flit back onto his drink, like he was caught doing something wrong.
Now my eyebrows scrunch, and I’m even more confused.
What would he be doing wrong by looking at Conor? Or looking at me?
“I don’t get it,” I breathe out.
“It’s because he likes you.”
My head snaps towards Samantha. I don’t know if it’s the fact that I got caught in the moment, so focused on Elias that I forgot that she was sitting right next to me, or the words that left her mouth that catch me off guard more.
“Elias doesn’t like me,” I deny, rolling my eyes at the mere thought of it.
“You are so oblivious,” she groans.
“He’s mean to me, he doesn’t like me,” I repeat.
“He’s mean to you because he likes you,” she explains.
“What? That doesn’t make sense, we’re not in middle school anymore, we’re adults.”
“It doesn’t have to make sense,” she shrugs. “Sometimes boys are so stupid that they think being mean to you will make you like them. Playing hard to get or something.”
I shake my head, wanting to get the thought of Elias liking me off my mind. It’s not something that I’ve ever considered before, and it’s not something that I want to consider now. I thought that it’s common sense to treat those that you appreciate with kindness and respect, but he treats me the opposite of that. “Let’s talk about something else.”
A few hours go by before I’m ready to head home, wanting to slip into bed and give my body a well deserved rest.
“I’m heading out,” I inform the table consisting of a few players, everyone else gone already.
“Alright,” Conor rises to his feet, pulling me into a hug. “Text me when you get home.”
“I will,” I tell him, “Bye, everyone.”
They all give me drunk goodbyes as I head towards the front door of the bar. As I walk, I can’t help but feel eyes on my back, as if someone is watching me. While my hand yanks open the door, I glance behind me, locking eyes with Elias. He watches as the door closes behind me.
~
“Can you skate?” Brock asks, watching over the boards as Quinn finishes tying my laces. 
“Not at all,” I shake my head. “But I did read WikiHow’s instructions before coming here today.”
It’s the day of the family skate. Last year I was able to get out of skating by using my work as an excuse, but today I was told to put the phone down and just enjoy the family skate.
I mentally cursed at my boss when he told me that.
“Quinn’s probably the worst person to teach you how to skate,” Ethan comments as he skates past.
Quinn curses at his teammate before holding his hands out, helping me step onto the ice.
“Push off with the left foot,” Quinn instructs.
“WikiHow says to march.”
“Well, as a professional hockey player, I’m telling you to push,” he snarks.
“This is going to be good,” Brock leans against the boards with a smirk, crossing his arms over his chest.
Nils and Elias stop next to Brock, watching as I fall for the fifth time in less than a minute.
“Is he teaching her how to skate?” Nils inquires.
“Yeah. It’s not going well so far,” Brock responds.
Elias doesn’t say anything, he just watches as I fall again.
Ethan’s right, Quinn is an awful teacher. He gets frustrated after ten minutes, storming off to skate some laps to cool down. Brock tries next but has to stop because he laughs so hard every time I fall down- which is often. Nils is too nice to correct my techniques or form, so his teaching style fails. Conor tries as well, before deciding that it’s no use and I just don’t have the skills to learn how to skate, and even poor Ethan tries before I tell him to just leave me.
“What are you doing?” A Swedish accent asks as I place one foot on the pavement to step off the ice.
“Going to sit down,” I say it like a question, confused on why Elias wants to know my whereabouts.
“You’re going to give up? Just like that?”
I sigh. “I’m just not meant to ice skate, Elias. It’s okay, it’s not a skill that I need to have.”
It’s his turn to sigh, like what I said really annoyed him. He holds a hand out towards me. “Come on.”
I stare at him in disbelief. “What?”
He gives me a blank expression. “You heard me.”
I reluctantly put my hand in his and he tugs me back onto the ice. He moves behind me, hands resting on my hips.
“Push off gently with your left foot only using your toes,” he instructs.
My foot does as he says and I stumble before one of his hands moves to my stomach, straightening me back up. Then it slides back to my hip.
I look up, knowing that if I stare at my feet any more I’ll lose balance. I accidentally catch eyes with Samantha, who smirks at me and mouths ‘I told you so.’
I roll my eyes at her.
“Are you even listening to me?” Elias questions.
“Yes.”
“What did I just say?”
“... I don’t know.”
He huffs, repeating the instructions. I move forward, slowly but surely. After ten minutes of almost falling down but Elias catching me everytime, the frustration begins to take over my body.
“Elias, really, it’s alright, you don’t need to help me with this,” I attempt to reassure him.
“No, you’re going to learn how to skate.”
“Why do you want me to learn how to skate so badly?” I ask him the question that I’ve been wondering since we started this lesson.
“Because you’re so determined with everything, you can’t give up now.” The tone of his voice is almost harsh, but his words are kind. I want to ask him why he cares if I give up now because he hates me, but I don’t want to irritate him and cause him to leave me in the middle of the ice by myself.
I’m sure Brock would love to see that, though.
So instead, I ask, “You think that I’m determined?”
He pauses, stopping me as well. “Do you remember the team's Halloween party last year?”
“Yeah… You, Brock, Quinn, and Nils dressed up as the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, right?”
“Yeah,” he nods, “And you spent a long time trying to get the perfect photo of us in the right poses, like a really long time, like a super-””I get it, Elias.”
He chuckles at the interruption. 
“I just remember watching you look at the poses, adjusting Nils’ arm or Brock’s leg, and thinking about how determined you were to get a good picture. And if you were that determined to get a good picture of a Halloween party for Instagram, I couldn’t help but think about how determined you would be in other aspects of your life. And over the past year or so, you’ve really amazed me.”
I’m frozen in place, breathless. I didn’t realize that such a simple question would cause Elias to become vulnerable with me, much less compliment me. He noticed and admired my personality despite not liking me.
His skates glide him in front of me, and his hands move from my hips to grab my gloved hands.
Like he read my mind, he says, “I don’t hate you, Y/N. I’ve never hated you. In fact, I admire you, a lot. But I’ve never had the confidence to tell you, and you’re just so smart and pretty and too good for me and-”He stops, rubbing the back of his neck with his hand.
His cheeks are turning red and a bashful expression takes over his face.
“I like you. I really like you.”
“Elias,” I say softly, “Why couldn’t you have just told me that instead of being mean to me?”
“Because I’m childish,” he murmurs.
“We’ll have to work on that.”
“We?”
“Yeah,” I smile gently at him, “I like you too. I really like you.”
His lips move forward, resting against mine and moving slowly. My lips move in sync with his and my arms wrap around his neck, pulling him closer to me as his hands gravitate back towards my waist.
It would be a romantic moment, it really would be, if we weren’t surrounded by a bunch of hockey players.
The cheering and hollering breaks the intimacy of the moment, but it sparks smiles from both Elias and I.

YR S3 things I absolutely loved so far
Sneaking away at the palace to make out (never mind that there’s litigation going on)
Wille openly kissing Simon in front of everyone (also the pink sweater)
Simon drawing a heart on Wille’s hand
Wille, Simon and Felice interacting
Maddie
their little camping in the forest
Rosh and Stella
Marieberg x Hillerska crossover/rave
the girls trying to cheer Felice up
Felice actually bringing up that the Husmor always pointed to Felice and her hair and ignored when other girls wore their hair down
people finally talking about the fucked up stuff going on at Hillerska
Wille finding out that Erik wasn’t as perfect as he once thought (tho what he found out stings to say the least)
Simon’s interaction with the mum and her kid on May 1st
Felice painting Wille’s nails
August? like I actually didn’t feel like skipping his scenes this season
PEOPLE POINTING OUT/BRINGING UP ISSUES - like Augusts obvious ED; i wish there was more time to do it more justice
Sara talking to her dad and him giving her some sound advice? Coming from a person who shares your struggles (or diagnosis) is huge and I’m glad he actually told her she can do hard things and move on from this
Wille letting his parents know how shit his life has been, especially the last year
Simon singing happy birthday to Wille, getting him a cupcake with candles
Nils telling Wille he’s brave
Sara and Felice working together at the graduation dinner

The replacement :
Wilhelm x reader
Young royals
Warnings : I don't think there is if do then let me know
[he is so pretty]
Today the prince of Sweden is coming to the school at the almost half of the year but anyway the headmaster warn us about our behaviour, our looks and in general how we were going to act and everything. I didn't know what he looked like because I didn't really care so I am clueless about the whole royal family and stuff but I do know that August is a relative I thing a second cousin of the crown prince and the prince because he is bragging about it and it is so annoying.
We are getting ready for the prince to come because the headmaster made us to sing and stuff for the prince arrival and finally the royal family got though the door and sat in the front rows with me directly behind him with Vincent in my right side and Nils to the other .
He was beautiful with his golden locks falling in each side of his face, with that beautiful eyes that everyone would fall in love with, his tall but not giant frame his perfect jawline and the mole / birth mark in his check not very far from his jawline and I came back to reality by my friends and the orchestra starting singing the song.I couldn't be more proud of my friends, Felice and Simon they have so good voices I am almost jealous of it when the song came to an end the Prince walked where the orchestra was a few moments ago and started his speech and we all left after a while.
I went up to Simon and Felice and I congratulated them and said that they had amazing voices and we talked while walking outside, sadly we had to part ways so me and Felice were walking to our rooms to get ready for me to go to rowing practice and Felice for riding. Meeting with the team so we could start our work out /warm up in the gym and August the only thing he was saying the entire time was that he was <<happy >> the prince which I learned he's name was Wilhelm to be in the same school and stuff like that and he came up to me. "Hey, what's up? "he said taking a sit to the machine that was empty beside me
" Hey, I am good, are you? "I said finally looking at him
" I am very good, thank you very much " he said
" why the very good bro what happened? "I said, I called him *bro*because we sometimes are hagging out after practice but I wouldn't say we are very close so yeah it's a nickname
" well if you haven't noticed my cousin, Wilhelm is finally at this school and I am excited to have him here and stuff" he said for the first part I could notice the sarcasm and I chose to ignore it
"Oh yeah I haven't noticed thanks for letting me know now I know!"i said with the sarcasm very visible
" Okay jizz relax I was just saying "he said and got his hand up in the air in surrender and I rolled my eyes and looked ahead of me and continue with what I was doing hearing him ramble on about Wilhelm.
Now it is time to leave and I went to my dorm and took a shower and changed my clothes to my uniform because I have to wear it for the prince but not tomorrow tho and I went for the diner because I was starving. I went to sit with Felice and the others, we ate and went back to our dorms to get ready for sleep and I looked around a bit before going to my dorm and I saw the prince Wilhelm go to his dorm too and I waved with a smile and he did too and went inside to sleep
/~Time skip ~/(to the morning in class)
I was sitting not far from the back but not in the front of the class but in somewhat in the middle and I was waiting for the professor with my other classmates, I was glad nobody sat with me but it didn't last long that feeling because someone sat in the empty sit beside. It was the Prince He was wearing the red coat and the glasses looking expensive with probably his expensive collogue looking good and while he was lowering himself to take a sit he smiled down
"Hey!"
Sorry for the cliffhanger but I won't let me have the entire thing that I wrote In one go so suffer with me

He was wearing the red coat and the glasses looking expensive with probably his expensive collogue looking good and while he was lowering himself to take a sit he smiled douw to me
"hey!" he said still smiling
I was looking at him with confusion and looked around and it had some seats free so why did he sat with me it is strange
"Hey?" I said with confusion visible in my tone and locked eyes with him
"how are you today?" he said and the smile fall to a small one but still there
"I am good, how are you? " I said back to him
"I am good and oh by the way my name is Wilhelm" he said and put his hand up to shake mine
"I am Y/n" and I shook his hand smiling and the professor come in and started the lesson and I spoke up again
"don't you have like a welcoming party or something prince?" I said very close to him so the professor won't hear us and he turned to me
"oh yeah August wants to have it for so" "are you coming?" he yet again said looking a bit flushed
"yes of course I am why would I? August annoyed me enough to make me go" I said and he looked surprised
"you are friends with August?"
"Yeah I am sadly"
"oh"
That was the last time you taked and it was silent after that well aside from the teacher's talking
/~time skip ~/[to the end of all the classes and we go to the part that the society did what it did to Wille because I can and I don't remember how the events happened so it is going to be a little messed up, forgive me]
August was knocking at my window to get out for the test that we do for the new members but yet I don't know who was going to be the new member so I got dressed and with the mask and everything and got out. We partly kidnapped the Prince Holly shit we were doing all of the things that we do normally but I didn't knew we were going to walk him like a dog and spit into a red solo cup and give it to him to drink, I am sympathetic towards him but it is what it is and after he puked by our spits we took him to the hide out and we all took of the masked, he looked kind of shocked to see me, probably didn't expect a girl to be in something like that but anyway.
"Wellcome Prince Wilhelm "I started the conversation and looked around the hide out and he nodded towards me and hummed
[incert here the speech that August made wilhelm say after him because I don't remember]
We gave him his uniform and after that I didn't really talked to him but I caught him staring at me at several occasions but I choose to ignore it and got back to the conversation that I had with my boy Vincent (I really like Vincent with his personality and attitude mostly but his looks too) after I little while the party started and we were drinking booze that I later found out Simon gave so he must be here with his sister which I never liked by the way (I didn't liked Sara and I was right to not like her) so I went to find him but I didn't found him I did found Sara and my favourite Felice leaving and I too got out and smoked for a bit and I heard August yelling my name so I went to find him and I did it was difficult, with August were classic Vincent and Nils and they wanted to find wilhelm too and we end up searching for him after some time we gave up tho because we figured maybe he was with a girl having fun and oh we were wrong.

Hi I saw in some of your posts how names are usually shortened in Sweden, e.g. it is usually an ‘e’ on the end of the first syllable: Wilhelm>Wille, Simon>Simme but sometimes it is different like Nils>Nisse. I also understand female variations have ‘a’ or ‘an’ instead of ‘e’? I wondered, if you are able and happy to share, what common shortenings (if they exist) would be for characters we don’t hear shortened in the show - such as Stella, Fredrika, Henry, Walter and so on? Are there different variations that might be used by different people, eg by parents, friends, partners? Thank you! X
The general rule is that you want to end up with two syllables, ending in a vowel. And you generally want an 'e' or 'o' for male names and 'a' or 'i' for female names. I know some languages have rules where you have different nicknames based on familiarity, but Swedish doesn't. It's up to everyone to decide which nicknames they're comfortable with others using.
Wilhelm -> Wille.
Simon -> Simme, but it's not common.
August -> Maybe Agge, but it's really not common.
Sara -> No standard nickname.
Felice -> Possibly Flisan or Flisi.
Stella -> No standard nickname.
Fredrika -> Perhaps Fiffi, I'm really uncertain here.
Madison -> Maddie.
Nils -> Nisse.
Vincent -> Could be Vinne, but probably not.
Henry -> No standard nickname.
Walter -> Walle.
Alexander -> Alex.
Kristian -> Krille.
Ayub -> No standard nickname.
Rosh -> No standard nickname.
Linda -> No standard nickname.
Mikael -> Micke.
Markus -> Mackan.
Anette -> Nettan.
Boris -> Bosse.
Kristina -> Stina. (But the Queen would never use this!)
Ludvig -> Ludde, Vigge or Viggo.
Erik -> No standard nickname.
Jan-Olof -> Janne (Nickname for Jan), Loffe (Nickname for Olof)
Malin -> No standard nickname.
Louise -> Lollo, maybe Lojsan.
Rickard -> No standard nickname.
Smysan and Poppe are most probably already nicknames, so we don't know their real names.
Note that all of these is a list of standard nicknames. A person can have one of these names and have a completely different nickname for whatever reasons, these are just the go-to nicknames that people would default to when speaking informally.

2022 In Fic
This is so late, but oh well! Big love and hugs to my faves @phoebe-delia (x) and @corvuscrowned (x) for the tags. Go and check theirs out too!
January
Harry’s Spiny Adventure (Wolfstar, toddler Harry)
“A ned-chog!” Harry was dancing on the spot now, unable to contain his excitement.
“Hedgehog, Harry,” Sirius sighed. So much for a normal day. “Why do you have a hedgehog in the house?”
Til The End Of The Night (Harry-centric, nil pairing)
Perhaps, he mused as he poured the boiling water into his mug, tremors causing the water to splash across the benchtop, the worst part wasn’t the words themselves, but the fact that the public was truly convinced of what they saw. All they could see was their Hero, their Saviour. The Boy Who Lived, who defeated the Dark Lord.
March
The Brightest Thing (drarry)
When I was young I expected my wedding to be stuffy, full of heavy vows. Yet here we are, your hands clasped in mine, giggling like two schoolboys.
April
The Evolution of Soup (Or, How Harry Learned To Be Loved) (Drarry)
As he succumbed once more to the ever-present fog at the edges of his brain, Harry felt a feather-light kiss in his hair, followed by another one on his temple. He fell asleep with a smile on his face, hand curling towards the one person who could make everything ok.
From The Shadows (Drarry)
I watch and I watch until one day; one day, I realise that you are watching back. How long, I wonder. How long were we watching each other without realising, caught in a never-ending dance?
May
Out Of The Darkness (Drarry)
I hate him, until he smiles. Before he smiles he is the saviour, he is the poster boy, he is the carrier of the weight of the world. But when he smiles he is Harry, my Harry.
With You Between My Arms (Drarry)
Trying to squash his hope - this isn’t what it looks like, he just wants to have a friendly dance, don’t be an idiot - Harry takes Draco’s hand, allowing himself to be led onto the dancefloor. He runs his free hand through his hair, trying in vain to tame his ever-messy curls.
“Don't,” Draco murmurs, grabbing Harry’s hand from his hair and placing it on his own shoulder. “The messy look suits you.”
The Strings That Weave Us (drarry)
The same tiny little shop where Draco worked.
Which is how Harry had found himself trying to make an appropriate amount of eye contact – look at his eyes, Harry, not his soft hair and just-right arms and the dimple in his left cheek and – as Draco explained how the thread worked.
June
Still Into You
They told me that it would fade, this feeling. That one day I would look at you and the butterflies wouldn’t come. But here you are, and here I am, joy bubbling in my stomach like champagne, hearts in my eyes.
All The Time In The World (drarry)
It was another week before Harry received the letter. Ginny was still screening his mail, but she was out with Luna. Besides, Harry knew that handwriting. He was sceptical as to whether Ginny would have let this letter through or not, but he knew that he definitely wanted to read it.
Why would Draco Malfoy be writing to him?
July
My Heart Was Unprepared (Darry)
My mind Healer told me to keep a journal, so here we are. I don’t see what the point is, really. Writing in this book isn’t going to magically erase the trauma of growing up in a cult, being forced to join said cult, having said cult live in your house… you get the picture.
I tried to point out that a diary actually caused quite a lot of trouble during the war, but Eugenia — my mind Healer — insisted. 
August
Like This, My Beloved (Drarry)
What I didn’t picture was you walking into the room that first day of Auror training, your face still pale from two months in Azkaban. I didn’t picture the quiet, “it’s ok, I can convert the old janitors closet to a bunk. I know no one wants me.”
I think I already knew, in that moment. I just didn’t know it yet.
September
The Love You Find (Drarry)
They never talked about it, but Harry took to crawling into Draco’s bed during the night, until they just pushed their two beds together. Harry wondered if they should discuss it, but he didn’t know how he’d handle it if Draco wanted to stop.
Mads (Drarry)
“What did I do to deserve you?” Draco whispered against Harry’s lips, tears coursing down their cheeks once more. 
“You don’t need to earn my love, Darling,” Harry said, pulling Draco against his chest. “It is freely given, for however long you want it. No matter what pronouns you use.”
October
I'll Be Loving You (Drarry)
“Loving someone doesn’t mean you endorse them,” Harry murmured, thinking of the hazy love for his aunt that had been squashed in his childhood, of the love he knew his mother had held for Snape even to her death, of the love he held for every version of the man in his arms, even the misguided teenager he had once been. Maybe especially that boy, fear a constant presence in his grey eyes.
November
The Threads That Bind Us (Drarry)
Every thought, they shared with each other. Every fear, every doubt, every self-recrimination. Every dream and hope and decision were shared and cradled and made together. 
It was their greatest strength, and Draco’s greatest joy.
December
Them (pre-slash)
Draco turned away with a little hum, contemplating his gingerbread man — person — with his head tilted first one way then the next. Harry held his breath, feeling like he was witnessing something important. 
Colour Outside The Lines (Harry-centric)
To be trans, Harry thinks, is to be alone in a crowded room. It’s learning a language too late, putting together a puzzle and discovering a missing piece.
The Brightest Star (pre-slash)
“Because I have a pretty awesome roommate,” Harry said. “And they just told me something about themself that I didn’t know, and I’m happy for them.” Draco shivered with each use of their pronouns, burying their face in Harry’s neck to hide their blush. 
Tagging anyone who hasn't done this yet who wants to :)

Live Thoughts on S3e2
- A music room scene that wasn’t soul crushing for once!
- I love everything about Felice's scenes
- Sarah learning to drive is interesting to me. Personally can’t drive because my autistic sensory issues makes it too overwhelming but her autistic traits seem to be more social-related since they haven't shown sensory stuff with her. It's nice for me to see autistic differences as well as similarities.
- Wille in the choir really caught me off guard
- Fight was more funny than anything
- August's such a dick for telling Wille he didn’t know Erik that’s his brother wtf
- Frog snow globe appearance
- Don’t post the song arghh It’s giving the hateful commenters what they want a reaction out of you goshh. Why isn’t his account on private too?!
- Wille picking Simon up so cute
- I love Maddie’s “what about the nonbinary ones” and just bringing up the cisheteronormativity in general
- Stella and Rosh!! wish it was Maddie x Rosh and that they got more screen time but still very happy
- Fredricka is definitely jealous
- I like how they showed the class differences. Rosh, Simon and Ayub working and staying home over the holidays, while the Hillerska kids are travelling. And the girls talking about how travelling is their passion like that’s not even something possible to want for most of us. Wille recognising this too and saying he’s working to make them feel comfortable (or at least that's how I saw it)
- Really glad the privilege and class differences is coming up in Wilmons relationship. Thought this would come up if Rosh and Stella started dating too since Stella likes to show off privilege a lot more than Wilhelm but didn't expect it to come up right away.
- Wille having a very main character in a drama series moment whenever something is wrong in their relationship will never not be funny to me, he needs them to be happy and in love all the time
- That lake view is so pretty! I wanna go to sweden
- "You have to be ready" ooo
- This episode addressed a lot of things which is interesting: classism, Nils and August talking about the homophobic initiation, racism as well was interesting don't have much to comment on it because I don't have any personal experience with that but the fact that Felice shared something really personal and none of the girls understood it/didn't know what to say seems quite accurate? and that they probably never even noticed until she brought it up too

Still too busy to start writing an essay so here's a (selective) dive into my emotional state whilst watching S2:
MOMENTS I CRIED AT:
The Opening second of S2 because I was too excited and overwhelmed
Simon's reaction to getting the solo (I had to pause bc I was genuinely clutching my chest over how happy he was.)
When Wille was putting on the Ball make-up and started crying over how he was becoming exactly the thing he didn't want to be
Wille's reaction after kissing Simon for the first time since last Christmas
Sara's confession about the whole video INITIALLY, and then my tears got more violent when I looked at Simon's face. He didn't even need to say anything, you could already see it (To anyone who posted hate abt Simon this season - We duel at dawn.)
Wille's closing speech; I genuinely thought that he was just going to abdicate, I WAS NOT expecting that.
MOMENTS I (very) NEARLY CRIED AT:
Stella's poem to Fredrika x the 'I'd rather be secretly in love with her than be some ex that she hates'....bro.
The flashback of Erik giving the Frog globe (specifically placed right after it smashes)
When Wille hugged Kristina and Lugwid (LISTEN, HERE ME OUT- Physicality is everything with and for Wille, and to see affection between himself and his parents was emotional.)
Seeing Felice getting her hair done in a salon x Her feeling comfortable in her skin and embracing her natural hair
The Book Discussion Scene - I am bias bc I'm a Literature student but it was so beautifully done
Simon singing THE song at the Ball
Wille's 'I met a friend last term who stirred new feelings in me...in a way, I wish that it never happened, because then I wouldn't know what it feels like' I'M DONE, DUDE, I CAN'T DO THIS-
Wille closing the curtains and then the two laughing...it's cyclical guys...
MOMENTS I LAUGHED AT:
Rosh and Ayub being cupids on the bus and chanting 'REBOUND' (I can't even begin to describe how much I love these two)
Simon and Ayub arguing over what the actual name of Rosh's ex is ('Just like Yasmine.' 'Yasmina.' 'No, Yasmine' 'It's Yasmina, bro.')
When Wille was threatening the Royal Court with going on social media after watching the video of Simon x Marcus at the Karaoke place
Simon lobbing that ball at Wille during Doggeball (With BRUTE. STRENGTH. AND. SPITE.)
Vincent's 'GODMORGON FUCKERS' at the running meet-up
Wille's face @ Nils when he says that he matched with Marcus on Grindr
Post-Romantic Book Discussion SceneTM where Simon is like 'And we don't know what happened after...' and Sara just goes 'Well she killed herself' LSKSLKS
As sad as the scene was, I nearly lost it when Wille put on that fucking wig
Boris curiously watching the utter chaos of Wille's speech at the end as if he didn't 100% contribute to that happening
Speaking of the closing speech, very much amused at the Queen's '*0*' face at hearing Wille admit that it was him
MOMENTS I '???' AT:
Nils saying that Erik saw Boris and that he was 'LGBTQ' certified (Hello?...Is there a connection here?)
Exactly leading on from this - The rumour that Erik dated a girl who did OnlyFans? (This could've easily gone into the laugh list but my initial reaction was just 'wait, what did he say?')
Marcus saying dumb shit like 'I know you don't want to destroy something this beautiful' and 'You're not your Dad'. AFTER A WEEK (Dude...Go listen to 'Take A Hint' by the Victorious Cast 2012 and think about what you just said.)
When August was giving the whole mucho 'OOoo, but if he goes to the police then what about the drug stuff?' SHUT UP FAM
When Kristina told Wilhelm that should he fail to ascend the throne, then August would be next in line. (I mean, I already knew that this was coming so I don't know why I was shocked, but I was shocked)
MOMENTS I '!!!' AT:
When Stella said 'Yeah, we don't keep secrets' and Sara said 'Don't we?' looking directly at her. (My heart has never jumped sm in my life)
Wille legit pointing a gun at August (...If it was me walking by, I would look the other way. If I was a Hillerska student walking by, I would look the other way. If I was some random dog-walking-in-a-field stranger passing by...I would STILL look the other way.)
When Simon ran after Wille and called out his name as Wille was walking down the steps (My hands were flapping in excitement)
The 'They don;t have names' line. CINEMATIC POETRY.
I was really excited by some of the shots/angles this season bc some of them are beautiful (Just to name a few: The Corridor I Love You Scene, The First Look since Christmas Scene, The Ball Sequence etc etc)
When Sara just straight up told August that she wanted to sleep with him, no hesitation, just saying at it is.
When Marcus was batting back at Simon for breaking up with him (I was initially shocked and was ready to rinse Marcus, but after thinking about it, they were hard truths that Simon needed to hear…And as much as Simon shouldn’t have used him as a rebound, Marcus is still a manipulative gaslighter.)
THE SOUNDTRACK - It SLAPPED SO HARD. It was bop after bop. Was I crying whilst bopping at some. Maybe. Was I creaking my bed bc I was dancing so hard at some?

12, 13 and 20 for the ask game!
Hi
12. Do you think you'd enjoy the Manor House Tradition of dressing up for dinner? Yeah, I think I'd do if maybe we got to decide what to wear and chose a theme once in a while.
13. If Nils offered would you go with him to Verbier? I don't know maybe it'd be a nice experience, maybe meet some people but just to make friends and have a good time.
20. If Erik was alive and August had still taken the video how do you think that would have played out? I answered this one here
Thanks for the ask x

- hahah I love this friend group of girls
- okay this valentines thing sounds like it’ll get real messy real fast ahaha
- not a repeat of the table scene but about felice😭
- they all just watched Simon walk out and didn’t even comment on it? it’s like they all forgot or disregard that relationship
- awe simon:( stop using Marcus thooo
- yeah felice has a lot going on
- okay wille and Simon being in the same PE class is Not. A good idea😂
- wille’s right that is hypocritical. honestly this is not scenes I expected to be watching but it’s great aha
- “at least he’s open about liking me” :(
- WILHELM. “You’re the one who can’t accept my role” that’s DIFFERENT. DIFFERENT SITUATION.
- “no, maybe I can’t” yeah:/ I love how much this show is delving into not only the class divide but the two different worlds and the reality they’re facing Bc of it
- oh my fucking god. thank god felice is calling him out here , he is actually being so fucking selfish it’s hard to watch
- YAY. DEVELOPMENT!!!! thank you wille that was really nice🥹 now we can go back to scheduled programming with their friendship, hopefully.
- “I have to let him go.” honestly, for now, yeah:(
- also felice looks so beautiful someone please fall in love with her for real:(
- omg nils!! legend. this is someone wille needed to talk to
- okay that was interesting. from that perspective you can see why they find it easier to stick to their circle . but you wonder where it stops
- hmmm the way she’s looking at her reading those letters makes me think it wasn’t just making out with your friend at a party 👀
- how dare august stand butt naked at the open window like that. he deserves someone to capture him in revenge
- august and Sara going to the ball together?? goodbye felice and Sara friendship
- okay Stella and frederika was not a ship I expected but I did need it😭
- omg FINALLY sara choosing her friends over august. I kinda wish she did go with him tho bc I want felice to know about them
- awe come ON how did Marcus pull through like that😭 man’s too perfect for him surely something’s gonna happen between them like come on💀
- WHAT ARE THEIR NAMES😭😭
- THEY DONT HAVE NAMES. bc he doesn’t want to repeat last time with wille or bc Marcus isn’t important for that??
- YESSS it was stellaaaa
- “I’d rather be secretly in love than be her ex that she hates” valid. I think wille would’ve rathered that too😭
- Simon purposely making wille jealous huh?
- “I have to be okay” gooddd im proud!! now have fun with your friendsss
- watching this with the costumes but modern party is so jarring hahah
- Simon stop using this damn man
- omg august told Alexander. tbh I was waiting for the consequences of that to fall through
- wille that was so random but I’m glad he was so nice
- THANK YOU WILLE. that was what we needed you to say!! except Simon clearly does still have feelings AHH
- honestly did not expect august to care that Sara stood him up but that’s an interesting turn. Comparing to wille and Simon tho?? I’m a bit confused how their situation is similar unless she means that they couldn’t stay together after felice knows but it’s not the same thing bc it’s bc she and august have done shit things
- Simon going to find willeee. I feel bad for Marcus tho ngl💀
- SIMON don’t miss your big performance!! no!!! not for wille not for anyone!!
- “I’m just trying to move on” so you chase your ex outside after he acknowledged that. right🤨
- OH MY GOD. And I’m so glad Simon was the one to initiate it😭😭
- I want them together but this is the wrong time😭😭
- okay he’s not missing the choir thank god. YOURE NOT SINGLE RN THO SIMON
- WILLE I would be smiling too that was a perfect kiss😭
- smiling while singing to him😭 especially when the song is about him too😭
- the song from the trailer😭
Okay this is making me emotional. I’m glad this didn’t happen until wille started to view the situation maturely though as I’d be lying if I said he deserved it in previous episodes, but I think they’re able to work it out surely their connection is unmatched, especially if he’s gonna kiss wille even when he’s in that wig💀😭
I’m not a fan of cheating storyline’s so I hope Simon does actually break up with Marcus after that.
But omg what a game changer episode!!
