Everyone sees the obvious symbolism: gloomy character with dark color palette 🌙 x cheerful character with light color palette ☀️

But it's so much deeper than that.

Drew, throughout season 1 and even in the spinoff, looks happy only around Jake. His softer, brighter side is almost exclusively reserved for him. Like the moon reflecting sunlight, Drew's emotional warmth seems to come from Jake's presence rather than from any inner source.

For freshman Jake, Drew is the light at the end of the tunnel. He's the one person who saves him from being bullied, the person who makes him feel seen when he needs it most. But again, that side of Drew’s is only reserved for Jake. No one else is the sun for Drew so he can’t reflect the light of anyone else.

And unlike the moon, the sun is its own source of light. In a way, Jake’s arc could be thought as abandoning the validation and approval he got from Drew (leaving the moonlight) and instead finding it through his passion within himself (embracing his inner happiness, sunlight).

Jake forms other close relationships. Other goals. His club. His music. And Jake has lost pieces of himself in the relationship with Drew. He can't fully be himself around Drew. He feels guilty, caught between Drew and the club, and time and time again he chooses the club—not because he doesn't care about Drew, but because it's a part of himself he’s learning to not give up.

The moon needs the sun to shine. The sun shines whether or not the moon is there. If anything, it’s almost like the moon is stealing the sunlight.

Drew is his best version around Jake, meanwhile Jake is at his worst around Drew.
