Literally, the first promo.

Simon : fuck the royals

Simon : *fucks the royals*

Wille is the most selfish thing Simon has ever wanted.

Throughout the entire series, Simon is always loyal to a fault, always taking care of everyone else — even when it’s inconvenient. The only time he does something for himself is when he is in pursuit of Wilhelm.

His whole life, Simon has had to sacrifice or share victories. Even his own voice, which should be entirely his own to sing with, is corrupted by the crown. But what Simon has with Wilhelm is purely what he wants, and has nothing to do with what anybody else wants. It isn’t about Linda, or Sara, or August, or the Queen. It’s just about the two of them — and Simon has never had anything in his life like that, something that is completely his. That belongs to him. That no one, other than Wilhelm, truly knows, truly understands how it feels.

And that’s why it is so different. That’s why it is so monumental, and why both Simon and Wille fight so hard to keep it. It is both of their true selves fighting for what they truly want.

What freedom tastes like

I just watched season 1 of Young Royals again and I was noticing how much Wille's desire to be normal drives him towards Simon. Wille wanted normality enough that he asked to go to a normal school with normal kids instead of Hillerska where Erik (and Kristina?) went so it was a conscious choice not to go there. As soon as he arrives he tests out Walter and Henry to see whether they'll treat him normally and they fail dismally. He's immediately attracted to Simon's looks and talent through the choir's performance but it's Simon's willingness to confront the rich kids' prejudices and point out that the royal family receive the largest amount of taxpayer money of anyone in the country that really cements Wille's attraction. Wille has had a lifetime of seeing that the way people relate to him is "fake" because of his position as prince - he intensely feels that people aren't seeing him as a person, only a figurehead and means to social advancement and other advantages. He probably subconsciously desires to be seen and known for who he is rather than the position he holds and Simon provides that in spades. Simon's confident disapproval of the monarchy just means that Wille can trust Simon to relate to Wille for the person he is. Simon's reluctance to be a secret, unwillingness to forgive Wille's denial that it's him in the video and criticism that Wille wants everything on his own terms only makes it more certain to Wille that Simon's one of the few people he's ever met that is real with him and treats him normally, that he can actually trust.
