"I was thinking about my wife... sorry, my ex-wife. I miss her. She's moved on, and I thought if I could have a fling, I might be able to move on too." "Can I ask you a question? Did the sex feel like you were cheating?" "It did. It felt like a betrayal."

“ if my mom comes in, tell her you're my boyfriend/girlfriend. “

maeve wiley

“ if my mom comes in, tell her you're my boyfriend/girlfriend. “

“ it's only awkward if you make it awkward. so don't make it awkward. “

"I'm surprised you chose to stay the night. Is it possible that the Maeve Wiley's ice-cold heart is melting?" You nuzzled your cheek into the pillow, eyes still droopy with sleep and voice heavy with exhaustion. Maeve dropping by the previous night had been a surprise, but her willingly staying the night without being asked had been an even bigger shock.

"In your dreams, Groff," Maeve murmured just as tiredly and you finally parted your eyes to look at her. Her eye makeup was smudged and her blonde and pink hair stuck out in different places. You snorted softly and reached out to drag your fingers through her hair, feeling the soft strands slip through your fingers. Maeve pushed her face further into the pillow to hide the smile forming on her face. You could hear plates clinking and clattering downstairs, signaling your parents had likely woken up.

"Want me to bring something up for you? An apple? Orange? Blood and tears of helpless children?" You moved up into a sitting position and gazed down at her, smiling at the way she giggled into the blue fabric. She slipped her arms around the pillow, far too relaxed for a girl who refused to let even Otis know she was banging the headmaster's kid, and tilted her head toward you to speak.

"I'll get breakfast later."

"An apple then." You stood up and retrieved your pajama pants off the carpeted floor, slipping them on and walking around the bed. Grabbing the doorknob, you turned back to look at the blonde. "If my mom comes in, tell her you're my girlfriend. She wouldn't really understand this whole... benefits thing."

"What?" Maeve's head shot up from the pillow and she scrambled upward, the bed creaking heavily under her movements. "Why would your mom be coming into your room?"

"I don't know, Maeve. Probably to see if I have any laundry I haven't done yet."

"I can't just have a chat with your mom while I'm in your bed, (Y/N). Have you seen me? I told you what happened with Jackson and his parents. She'll think you lost your mind!" Maeve slipped out of bed and collected her clothes, putting them on as quickly as possible. You watched her rapid, albeit frantic, movements and arched a brow.

"My parents may be old-fashioned but mom is a sweetheart. Trust me, raising Adam has made her very indifferent to things." You chuckled softly. "Besides, it's only awkward if you make it awkward. So don't make it awkward."

"Easy for you to say. You're not the one who was snuck into a house."

"Maeve, breathe." You chuckled, dropping your hand from the doorknob and gently cupping her face. "Come have breakfast with us. I'll ask Mom to tell Dad and Adam to behave. You'll be fine, I promise."

I finished Sex Education, and I loved the ending, but there are 3 characters arcs that I feel deeply appreciation for and that is the Groff’s. As someone that is the only one that goes to therapy in a family that is emotionally broken and loves to bury their issues, their growth was like a dream come true for me.

Starting with Maureen, who is presented as this submissive housewife; it must had been extremely challenging and terrifying for her to ask her husband for the divorce because that was the life she knew, but by doing so, her life improved completely. She was able to discover that life could be enjoyed in so many ways, and that not everything needed to revolve around her family, just because she was a mother. She got herself on dates with nice guys, learned new things and went to amazing parties, and that lifted her confidence. And that new confidence was a key part on understanding that she couldn’t go back with her husband, unless he also fixed himself and the relationship with his son. Maureen really went “I do miss you and may want to get back but learn to be a father first”; and I love her for that.

Adam growth wasn’t linear, it took a lot of hits and heartbreak before he reached the self-love he required. I was never a fan of Eric and Adam, because I really despise the bully to lover’s arc; but I did was a fan of seeing Adam get out of his bully self and grow into a better person. Accepting his bisexuality was probably the first step for him to start analyzing himself outside of what his parents taught, that gave him more confidence in himself and made him realize that maybe school wasn’t for him. That he was good with animals and could get a job and a career out of that. Then his father comes and criticize that dream again and he start self-doubting so much to the point of thinking he was going to get fired; but he wasn’t, someone told him “you made a mistake, but that doesn’t mean you aren’t good at this.” That was probably the first time in his life someone had told him that and it was illuminating for him. It gave him the courage to confront his biggest bully, his father, and lay down all the harm he did and how much it affected him in his daily life. It takes a lot of bravery and self-confidence to do that.

Which takes me to my favorite character growth of all the series, Michael. Because when you think about it, all the growth Maureen and Adam did wouldn’t affect or care to Michael, if he wasn’t also working on himself. We are told that Michael was a bullied child, by his father and brother, which turn him in this cold and hard man that took things for granted and really didn’t care for how people felt. Maureen asking him for divorce took him out of nowhere, but it didn’t give him any ideas on improving himself. It was until he talked to Jean and saw how awful his brother was, that something clicked inside of him and made him realize he didn’t want to be like that anymore. And he tried to be better for Maureen, and she saw that but reminded him he also had a son. He also tried with Adam and failed a few times – when he yelled at him in the car, when he makes him feel that he only wanted to get back with his wife; but it were these failures and Adam standing up to him, what helped him finally understand which path to take. He needed to start removing from his life what made him miserable to be happy and love himself, and that was hard and scary, but he could do it. This time he listened, and that it such a key part on healing, he listened to the people he hurt and didn’t put the blame on them or justified himself – like so many parents do with the ‘I just wanted the best for you’. His final speech to Adam had me in tears because he realized from where all the pain and misery was coming from, and he now knew how to start working on that.

They aren’t completely healed by the end of the series, but they are way better than when they started. And it may still take them some time to be fully comfortable with each other, but healing isn’t linear and thar is so important to hear.

Is Adam Groff just an Introvert?

When it comes to film/tv there is a phrase: show, don't tell.

But, when a story is heavily influenced on character rather than being plot driven, dialogue is wildly important. This is the case with Sex Education.

Sex Educations - I'm focusing on season 3 - really wants to tell us that Ada Groff has internalized homophobia and is having a hard time coming to terms with being bisexual and coming it. But... I really feel like that isn't what they showed us. They showed us the poor dude is just a shy introvert (and possibly coded as neurodivergent - that's another post).

Adam and Eric came back to Adam's to find his mom Maureen with a man (who's name I don't recall). Adam introduces Eric as his friend which seems to hurt Eric. OK. so I grew up with a parent who dated and sometimes had flings. I would NEVER come out to some rando my mom was seeing. I probably wouldn't even talk to them... just wave awkwardly and go to my room. In terms of social etiquette it would be SO weird to just come out to said rando. That has nothing to do with how queer or comfortable Adam is. At. All.

When Eric returns home - from his visit to his Aunt's where he cheated on Adam which is never addressed at all in s4 but whatever that actor is charismatic AF so who cares in the character is a little sh*t -.- moving on - he asks Adam to go to a club with him. Adam seems reluctant.

Right... we've seen him crash Aimee's party in s1, sit in a corner at a dance in s2, sit outside a party in s2... this kid is always off to the side or outside... always by himself in the quiet. I don't think a party let alone a loud club is a place Adam would want to go to... period. It (again) has nothing to do with how comfortable he is with his queerness.

BUT everything Adam does that Eric doesn't like must mean that he's still not "out enough" whatever that means.

Really their relationship did not read in terms of behavior as a couple who are splitting because one is totally out and one is still kinda in the closet. It read as an extrovert and an introvert who just aren't meant to be.

Eric in s3 was just so gatekeepy regarding queerness...

*I am about to go off on a unrelated tangent*

But Adam in s4 was just SO DAMN poorly done. His entire storyline is separate except for one ep... which kind of didn't make sense for him to be in because we haven't seen him interact with Aimee since they broke up in s1.

They did the most stereotypical thing and had the bi guy start off with a chick, realize he's also into dudes, then get with another chick. THIS BOY NEEDS A FRIEND! But they wrote off Rahim and Ola... and eh didn't hang out with Ruby who also clearly needed a friend.

And guess we're pretending he didn't have a whole storyline in s3 about trying better in school... and also that awesome English teacher wouldn't notice he probably is dyslexic...

I got off topic. This is just bothering me.

⭐️💜❤️

Oh my god op I'm so happy it's you asking!!

⭐️- What’s your favorite broadway star?

Jonathan Groff <3

💜- What’s an unpopular opinion you have about a show?

Interesting question! I have a few but my mind went black so I'm just gonna say Maureen from Rent is not a great person and Joanne deserves better. I honestly don't think I would've mind if Joanne and Mark ended up together.

❤️- What’s a show that makes you feel pumped up

A few come to mind but I'm gonna go with Six.

(Side note: I sang “Gimme gimme” from Thoroughly Modern Millie at the top of my lungs the other day and I cannot explain to you how hyped I was afterwards)

.

Thanks so much for the ask! 💕

writing up adam’s bio is so much more intimidating than aimee and jackson’s because, while aimee’s mum makes only a fleeting appearance in s2, and jackson’s mums are increasingly being sidelined by the story sex education wants to tell, maureen and michael groff were extremely central to the story in s3 ( also one of my favourite things about it ) and i doubt that will change in s4 because there’s a whole lot unresolved in that familial dynamic

#* / be yourself. everyone else is taken ( ooc. )#unlike the other two where i doubt i will get much in the way of canon acknowledgement of their parents/background #with adam i need his bio to be detailed enough to satisfy me while also easy enough to adapt if need be lmao

I want to talk more about Michael Groff and his sexuality. He's clearly on the ace spectrum, from my very ace perspective, and in a way I get why they didn't offer him a label for his wsy of experiencing sexuality, only described it in the scene where he calls the radio show. Ultimately the fact that there's a label he could use if he wanted to doesn't matter, what matters is that he knows he's not broken and that there's nothing wrong with his "manhood". But I also feel like s4 kind of... forgets that a part of the issues he had in his marriage was that he didn’t really... desire sex all that much? Like Maureen not feeling sexually satisfied was a major thing? It's not just that his dick needs an emotional connection, it's that he seems to prefer physical affection that doesn't involve actual sex over sex.

Michael is, in my opinion, a good example of a man with a low sex drive and who very much seems to be on the ace spectrum, who has also been held to the hypersexual standard given to most men and id struggling with his self image as a result. He's a man so of course he should want it, right? If he doesn't then obviously there's something wrong with him... Except, of course, there isn't. The show also makes it a point to say as much, which is nice. I think they could have dug into this more, since the show also addresses the issues the adults in it have, instead of being all about teens growing up and discovering themselves and trying to learn to navigate relationships and their own identities and ways of experiencing things.

You know, the whole "for a week I thought I was gay but then I realised I didn't *want* this guy, I wanted to be like him" thing is also very... acespec. Obvs others can experience that also, but confusion about the nature of what you are feeling towards another person is also just. ace. especially when you don't know asexuality is a thing and don't really have reason to think you are ace. you just are. and take in the world as it comes, but how do you know if you desire someone like that, or if you just find them aesthetically pleasing or the qualities they posses to be desirable in the "wish that were me" way?

they could have mentioned in the radio show scene that some people who experience sexuality in a similar way use this label but that there's no pressure for him to apply it to himself. it would have been nice if the representation show woukd have made it a point to show someone ace can be a middle aged or older man with a child an ex-wife he still has romantic feelings for.
