Equius supremacy I fucking love this art

yeah

I have been in this gay ass room for ten thousand years

dirk and jake broke up bc they jumped directly into dating when neither of them had ever had friends in real life before and therefore didnt know how to handle ANY kind of social interaction let alone a relationship, especially when their other two friends consisted of girl who also has never had friends in real life before and girl who has a vested fucking interest in the two of them not dating. and all of it was too much too fast for jake but instead of communicating that jake just withdrew completely and sat on his hands to try to make dirk deal w the problem. and dirk panicked and went deep into 'find things that jake is interested in' mode and took them on adventures like it was a job to try to keep jake interested but it didnt work bc what jake really wanted was space and time to adapt to interacting w people without so much pressure. but again jake wasnt telling dirk that just kinda vaguely sighing in his direction and hoping dirk would magically be able to figure out what jake wanted from him (which never wouldve worked bc again. dirk has never interacted w people irl before). and dirk didnt know what to do and AR was calling him a shitty person and shitty boyfriend for not knowing but really that was just a combo of ARs resentment towards dirk for creating him and dirks own self loathing doubled down on him so he convinced himself that the problem was all down to him. so he broke up w jake to protect him or some shit but that wasnt the real issue either so jake was convinced it was something he did. esp since dirk didnt really tell jake the real reasons he dumped him. and it was all a whole clusterfuck but it's not 'dirk was a shitty boyfriend' or 'jake was a shitty boyfriend' it's just 'they both needed some time to learn how to be real people first, can we get the beta kids and trolls involved to teach them some social skills please and ty' like I really do think theres hope for them in the future. just..... not right away
