Manhunter Will would call tv Will a slur, tv Will would say something about internalized homophobia and Freudian psychology or something. And then they’d square up

thinking about the fact that it looks like Ruben really didn’t want to do it. he acts like he HAS to do it, like there’s no other option for him. to me, he even looks apologetic. and you know what? it looks like Niall thinks that way too!! he doesn’t resist, not really. he tries to defend himself, but it looks like a natural reaction. he never really tries to stop what’s happening. it’s like this is an inevitable thing that they have to go through together. they have no choice! this scene looks so simple on the surface but it’s insanely complex. it’s fascinating!

OOC: THIS. This is the post.

wow they make me so sick, and or horny idk which one yet

i want to see niall stick that knife in ruben sooooo bad. but like. in a romantic, depraved way. i need to see them being inside each other in a way that hurts but it's still a way to be connected, like they always have been through the series. but bloodier and darker.

ruben's line of "if i wasn't family, i'd be up under those skirts" in episode 1 is so good because they are both actively playing into and maintaining this charade of being brothers even though they're not related in the slightest because it allows to remain so close while simultaneously keeping them at bay from what they really want
