Heavily fuck w the lovey dovey shit… love being someone’s baby

it’s very sad but very dear to me that while ilya in the long game is very depressed and has absolutely zero self esteem and thinks of himself as the worst captain ever, in role model that is just demonstrably untrue. like. troy’s internal monologue about him is just how it’s crazy that he’s on the same team as him and that he’s so good at everything. harris is so happily confused about his antics. luca haas hero worships him. the rest of the team is obviously just incredibly fond of him. every time we catch a glimpse of him he’s being great with kids and dogs or is supporting his friends in some way. his speech and resolve is the entire motivation behind the centaurs making it to the playoffs. like! ilya rozanov i fear you will never know how loved you are

and what if i said that the rooftop fight in episode 1 lays the groundwork for the dynamics that we'll see in the boxing day fight. ilya going through something hard and serious with his family/depression and not saying it to shane, so that shane thinks the fight is about the immediate problem (him winning rookie of the year/them going to bood's party). and ilya getting getting mad at shane for not understanding, but only saying a tiny sliver of the truth (not everything is about you, hollander/i have no one). shane trying to ask about it, but getting agitated (so what is it then?/could you please explain what the fuck is happening?). and shane saying something pissy bc he feels so upset (all you do is beat me. i win one fucking thing, and you can’t even show your face/uh, fuck you. sorry i still want to win cups instead of smoking weed with my teammates between losses). hashtag the troubles have always been there and that's the good shit to me. so much to learn but they still love each other <3

every time i see stairwell scene im like oh my god he really took his virginity then i have to breathe deeply to calm down

like. i like when shane is mean. often i feel like he should be meaner. 🧍

shane and ilya are best friends by the way. like they literally like each other BY THE WAY

My toxic trait is that if I find a product I like I want to keep using the same product forever. It's not even brand loyalty. It's called stop changing and discontinuing everything.

GETTING THIS ON OUR SCREENS NEXT YEAR EVERYBODY SAY YAYYYY

personally I'm annoyed by the socioeconomic conditions that made words like "unalive" necessary but simultaneously impressed by the linguistic adaptations young people have made to continue talking about important things while subject to those conditions and I think if you can't hold both of those thoughts in your head you might just be old man yelling at cloud

and when shane hollander performs beginning to end the hit song Bet On It from high school musical 2 while storming through an empty stadium. What then

another incredibly tragic thing shane just drops casually happens when he and ilya do a house tour for gq or some shit. the interviewer asks something like “whats the biggest change in your living space since coming out and moving in together” and shane goes “honestly just being able to comfortably live with each other. for a long time we were erasing every tiny detail of ourselves so we wouldnt be caught. but now we can have our wedding pictures on the mantel :)” and everyone dies

crossfaded somewhere between "there has to be more to life than this" and "every mundane thing is beautiful when you're with people you love"

if they're gonna remake The Princess Bride, it should open with a kid sick in bed scrolling on his phone. his grandpa arrives with a gift--it's a DVD player with a disc already inside. grandpa hooks it up to the TV and presses play. and we all just watch the original 1987 film again.
