anyways rant aside- renee walker for the soul
when they go pro andrew dresses neil if he’s going to be seen in public and also just ends up buying a lot of neil’s clothes, bc of this neil gets a reputation for being fashionable, everyone who actually knows neil thinks this is hilarious
jean moreau is stronger than me bc if KEVIN DAY leaned in and whispered to ask if I could teach him my native languge when he's not watching, it could be our secret, I WOULD'VE FOLDED
as a fandom i think we moved on from "and my father comes to all my games, that is enough" far too quickly.

I've seen people mention that Mathilda keeping Jeremy's documents somewhere is crazy, but I haven't read anyone say what this exemplifies.
We are talking about Jeremy's birth certificate, his passport, social security document... we are talking here about JEREMY'S IDENTITY. The identity that Jeremy's family has held hostage, literally and figuratively. And it's not just that anymore.
We are talking about an abysmal level of violence and homophobia because... if Jeremy wasn't gay, his family wouldn't treat him like that. Think about it. Bryson is the addict and the one who started being Jeremy's dealer, but he has relative freedom. He's even sure that if he blames Jeremy, everyone will believe it.
They blame Jeremy for Noah when everyone knew Noah was not well. Jeremy begged them to help him and no one did. They blame him because they need someone to take all the hits from the family, and that is Jeremy, the gay son who, therefore, falls outside the box in a family of conservative politicians.
This comes from afar, without a doubt. That Jeremy's biological father is also from the "conservative elite" (it doesn't have to be that way, but he is a high-ranking US military official in 2006, I don't think he is very liberal) and abandons the entire family even though Jeremy seems to continue to be loyal to him by keeping his last name (a last name he doesn't like because it continually reminds him that his biological father has abandoned them), says a lot about what Jeremy is experiencing and his sense of loyalty.
The fact that Jeremy does not even have his birth papers exemplifies that his family has stolen his identity, and he is not a person to them either. As long as they have a black sheep to blame, they will never change or excuse Jeremy, because it is in their best interest not to.
The Wilshire need a scapegoat to blame.
Oh, and look what a coincidence!
...Guess who has been the Ravens' scapegoat.
in heaven you can make amvs for books

Anyone else think one of the things that Gets To Andrew is the fact that Bee is always, without fail, genuinely pleased to see and hear from him? That she knows so much about him - all his outer and inner demons alike, and she is still so pleased when he keeps coming back to her?
Because I think about that a lot
