I’ve never ONCE seen one of these and not being just like…absolutely riddled with tension, so. Keep passing them around, I guess!

Same tho

The difference between Hudson Williams and Connor Storrie is that Hudson is fully aware of how his charm affects people and he uses his power for good, but Connor doesn't realize that the entire world is so diabolically down bad for him, he's just vibing and making new friends. And I love that for both of them.

Reblog to save a duck

Quack quack

It’s getting to be that time of year where more people are going outside to parks and stuff so i thought it would a good idea to reblog this again

ilya was clearly supposed to kill himself before his thirtieth birthday and shane was supposed to live a long and miserable life in the closet but more than either of those things were supposed to happen they were supposed to find and literally save each other

yknow jane austen really wrote one of the most important sentences in romance ever when she pulled out "if i loved you less i might be able to talk about it more" cause that concept has been the overarching thesis of so many of the best romances in storytelling ever. it's so succinct it's so perfect.

I'll never understand when critics haters of Heated Rivalry call it "heteronormative pandering slop". A story about two buff jocks who both, for the most part, conform to masculine standards falling in love with each other because they are equals in strength and skill at the most manly sport out there is not heterosexual coded. The main point of Heated Rivalry is overcoming the social pressures of acting manly and dealing with internalized homophobia from years of trying to make yourself fit into a very specific box. Shane almost exclusively liking to bottom doesn't make him "the girl" in the relationship, he could absolutely body Ilya any time, he just doesn't want to because he has specific sexual desires that he had to come to terms with over almost 10 years. It's giving biphobia and misogyny from considering bottoms "weak girls". You guys are perpetuating homophobia! Just admit you don't understand the story and move on.
