I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again and again until I die: the love and care that the suitor squad all have for one another without any resentment or jealousy over lucy is really really special and important

WHA #80 SPOILERS

.

This spread has had me thinking so much.

While this is very much Coco reminding herself that she's not alone and that there are people she cares about and has with her as she moves forward despite being scared, I also can't help but interpret this another way.

Talking about how one must etch the people important to you into you heart, imagination and mind. That can do anything if you have ink, paper and a pen. And how even if they're not there with you, you're not alone and they're with you.

Adding Coco as part of the illustration while showing another pair of hands separate from her, drawing it. Putting in Jujy, Sinocia, and Ermile; all people Coco has barely interacted with to have too much of a strong impression of.

It feels like a subtle 4th wall break on Shirahama Kamome's part.

This dropping close to the 8th anniversary of Witch Hat Atleier's manga serialisation, and so many years before of creating the world and characters interacting in the world, feels so special. Because you can tell how special these people are to Coco, and to Shirahama herself, who's put in so much work and love into them.

This page gave me goosebumps.

was checking my emails before going to bed only to find out my endocrinologist casually scheduled an appointment at long fucking last

it warms me a lot to imagine that the first few years of river's life, he maybe received cards that said something like 'happy birthday, young lad! best wishes, charles partner' or 'happy christmas! yours warmly, charles partner' in tandem with expensive gifts such as a toy spyglass or detective kit that were likely elegantly signed or chosen with care by catherine standish. 🥺

The Hug is still such a funny moment to me. especially looking at it purely from sydney's perspective. like yeah of course they hug like that, it's a joyous occasion after all. a quick moment, inconsequential and appropriate for the merry situation. she's overcome with joy, no biggie. but. the show repeatedly establishes that sydney isn't allll that comfortable with physical touch/tender moments. she's discomforted by tina's sudden hug in 2.01 and doesn't hug her back even after the initial surprise wears off. her acceptance of nat's hug in 2.09 is sheepish and she shies away from nat's praise. she doesn't initiate a hug with marcus after his return from copenhagen and says she's not doing a corny back and forth with compliments.

with carmy though? she basically does the complete opposite. we're shown sydney is less uneasy with him about those things even with all the walls she puts up. carmy is the first person she immediately hugs after the fire suppression test. the only other person we see her hug afterwards is fak. and it's a resigned acceptance of fak's hug as she gives him chummy let's-end-this-quick pats on the back [also done with a former coworker during her palate cleanser]. yet with carmy, she just unthinkingly went for it. and not just any hug; a euphoric full-body [bear] hug. cheek to cheek. warm body pressed against warm body. breathing in his hair, skin, clothes. someone who's been disappointing and pissing her off all season. someone who isn't her blood relative or lover or even truly a friend. no awkwardness or reluctance. no chummy pats. yes it's a quick moment in the wake of a huge win. but she doesn't immediately hug anyone in the wake of another huge win—averting a complete disaster during the soft open. and like, The Hug is just a totally Regular thing to sydney [and carmy]. just like how her relationship with carmy is Normal and tension-filled and frustrating and combative and vulnerable and tender in a way unlike any other relationship she has with other characters.

making big strides now that I'm not crippled by pain and wanting to shout it from the rooftops but somehow feeling awful about it because I'm not doing it fast enough. #livelaughlove

hey guys, my squad and i were discussing theories and we realized you mentioned when mike came out but you didn't say anything about will. can you tell us when did he come out in the timeline? we love the fic!

glad you guys are enjoying so far!! :D

you’re right, we haven’t talked about it yet!! will came out to joyce and jonathan (and steve by association) in the fall of 2017, and then to max in the first half of 2018 (before camp). by the end of summer 2018, he had come out to the rest of the party as well!! ���
