When the snow globe shatters, it is both liberating and heartbreaking all at once. The duality is the point.

Nothing is ever black and white in real life. Wille hates being a part of, and everything about the royal family and yet. he is attached to the snow globe because Erik gave it to him, as a symbol for his trust in him carrying the role of prince well. He hates being a prince because he feels he'll never be good enough as one, but the snow globe says otherwise.

I actually do believe that Wille sees his responsibility more as protecting Erik's image rather than the royal family's or the crown's image. The object of his devotion has a face: Erik was real person who Wille had genuine respect and love for.

And that's why it hurts. so. much. jfc to watch him go absolutely numb when the globe shatters, to watch him try to put it together through his own silent breakdown, as if that's how he's trying, and failing, to piece Erik back together.

It may be a symbol for him being trapped within the monarchy, but it's still the only thing tying him to Erik. If it wasn't for his brother, he would've had no qualms about kicking the monarchy to the ground. Erik wished the best for Wille and having to uphold that became his own prison.

I give you-

rpdr can sometimes be pretty awkward for me as a zillenial bc they make a lot of references where i’m like huh? who?

like during the snatch game rupaul was coming at gigi and crystal cause his old ass didn’t know who poppy and sophia the robot were but like that IS pop culture right now and idk that made me feel some sort of way like there’s a subtle disconnect between the show and its growing audience and if this show wants to keep going for even longer these crusty-ass references have got to GO

Whenever anything got too uncomfortable, Jules would just imagine that she wasn’t really herself, and this wasn’t really her life. She was just a character in a book or a movie or a show. That none of it was real, and if it was, how did it matter? It’s not like her body ever really belonged to her in the first place. But fuck it. She’d save it for the memoirs.
