I love that in the last few clips the soulmate energy is through the roof. Like you can feel that they both truly believe that they’re the luckiest person in the world to have the other. And they’re both right. They get each other completely and they have this balance, like even though they just truly got together it also feels like they have been together their whole lives.
People talk about that kind of connection but we’re actually seeing it. They’re so different, polar opposites in so many ways yet they also fit together perfectly. They’re both exactly what the other needs.
Matteo is such a dork, he’s an absolute disaster. But he loves so big. He has such a huge heart and once someone sees that it’s impossible not to love him. He needs someone calmer, wiser, to center him and balance him out. He needs someone that can see all of him and can be trusted to protect the gentle part of him that he doesn’t show many people. Someone he can be a weird ass gremlin with but also be the kind of boy that wears his heart on his sleeve for the right person.
David seems to be a little more on the serious side, he’s been through some shit and finding this sweet boy that looks at him like he hung the moon, while kicking him and pulling his hair is exactly the kind of light-heartedness his spirit needs. Not only that, but that wisdom and that life experience have made him the kind of person that can see past the chaos to that soft sweetness that is at Matteo’s core. David needs someone that will always try to support and understand him, whether it’s by climbing fences and exploring abandoned buildings or looking at his art and telling him how talented he is.
They are the epitome of what soulmates are supposed to be. A perfect balance. Like with the clip today - they have been apart less than 24 hours. There is no way with the chat that it could have been more than that. But David steps into Matteo’s apartment and immediately kisses him and tells him he missed him. Matteo falls into David and his body language is screaming “oh thank god, these last few hours have been the worst.”. That is some honeymoon phase type of stuff.
What makes it more is the way that David hugs him back. He’s not surprised in the least that Matteo needs that affection. When they sit on the couch and they settle in together it’s like they have done it a hundred times. There is no hesitancy at all. The twine their fingers, they laugh together, their gestures are similar. It’s so comfortable and familiar, you would never guess they have only been at this point for a few days. But the trust and the intimacy of the first two clips make it so clear why that is. They’re at peace when they’re together.
They’re just so next level. It comes across as so intrinsic and instinctual. Their reactions to each other are so in line with the connection we have been shown. I was keeping my expectations low just in case but even if they had been high this would be exceeding them. They just fit. Communicating that can be difficult, it can feel forced or fake, but druck is nailing it at every turn. Like they had their faults throughout the season but this is not proving to be one of them. I am fully committed to the idea that David and Matteo will be spending the rest of their lives together. Because these actors and this show have made it to where I literally can’t imagine them ever being apart.
