a real-life, honest to god sorcerer!

epilogue gay bar discourse resurfacing again even after six months is so ridiculous. there is nothing offensive about the depiction of will at the bar meeting his friend/boyfriend. the argument that will wouldn't smoke/drink/engage in any sexual relationship is inherently puritanical. there is nothing insidious about gay bars, and implying that will's presence there means that he will contract AIDS is homophobic.

will feeling like a mistake for loving boys while also believing mike’s love was the only thing that could make him feel whole… oh will…

somewhere out there Will and his daughter are bonding over Robert Smith and Olivia Rodrigo’s collab btw

noah's acting in s2 gets heaps of praise because it's really flashy/extreme (and i totally agree that it's a phenomenal performance), but i genuinely believe that his best skill is subtle facial acting and two of the best examples of it are pictured above. the way will's face falls after mike's homophobic comment in the rain fight scene is genuinely gutting - no words are needed to understand the thoughts and fears running through will's head and the way he feels his life has just imploded. in contrast, look at the unmissable awe and amazement in will's eyes when he sees robin and vickie - noah visually conveys how things are finally clicking into place for will through his facial expressions in that scene

I loved hearing Will say to everyone that he had a crush on someone, then use the pronoun “he” so openly

You either die a hero (get unfairly cancelled after 1-2 seasons) or live long enough to become the villain (the last season/final is a shit show)

sometimes being a fan of something means not wanting them to make any more of it
