i give you Liam “Passenger Princess” Dunbar; the man absolutely HATES driving and didn’t tell Theo he got his license until 6 months afterwards because he didn’t want to be forced to drive them somewhere and Theo “Chauffeur” Raeken who absolutely HATES when he isn’t in the drivers seat and knew when Liam got his license but didn’t bring it up because he didn’t want Liam to drive them somewhere
my honours thesis fr like i know that’s the whole point but 😭😭

i love graffiti. "comics and jazz are the only american art forms" you forgot graffiti. did you remember graffiti? That art form birthed in Philly and NYC in the early 70s by poor Black kids. that art form that spread all over the world and influenced so many. that's used without irony in commercials when they're trying to appeal to a "young urban" customer.
did you forget graffiti? that racism broken windows theory victim? that reach the establishment takes claiming that it's exclusively violent gang members throwing up those full-color pieces and wildstyle tags in the middle of the night outsmarting fifty security cameras because the billboard was ugly anyway. as if, even if it was, it wouldn't be impressive as all hell. risking brutality and fall damage so your art can occupy the space a gentrified condo named something like "Coluumna" took away from you. proving that despite only assholes affording to live here anymore there's still a soul beneath it. an animal with dripping stripes and teeth that go clack-clack tsssss
been thinking about fantasy/scifi rule systems and free will

silliest men ever yeah right "i'm not dying for you" meanwhile theo doing complete reckless shit to keep liam alive
are they fr
aussie academia is writing your essay the night before, sitting in your wet swimmers, an ice cold bottle of cheap wine sweating onto the table beside you, your legs sticking to the seat, your hair still dripping water down your back.
it’s the taste of salt water in your mouth, the smell of the day’s sunscreen, and more ink on your fingers than the page.
it’s seeking refuge from the heat by studying in the cool, white, science lab during your lunch. it’s drawing all the blinds to keep the sun out and having to write your flashcards in the dark. it’s bare feet in the library.
it’s biting into a slice of watermelon, the juice dripping down your chin and staining your notes pink. it’s keeping gold coins in your bra to buy a one dollar ice cream from the servo on your study break. it’s memorising content until the sun goes down at ten pm, and then using the warm light of the sunset to study until midnight.
it’s flipping flashcards with your best friend on the front porch, having to raise your voice over the evening cicadas. it’s opening your notebook to find sand in the spine. it’s using flat shells as bookmarks and coconut scented candles everywhere. it’s the smell of citronella and cigarettes on the south lawn, giggles in the air after exams.
HELLO??!!!???!? my jaw dropped
See, Theo does this sometimes. Plays the charade of caring too well. Makes Liam think he might be able to talk about this broken glass thing that is sparkling between them, making him bleed. But Liam knows from experience that he doesn’t. Care, that is. Theo puts on the illusion of a human face and Liam falls for it over and over again. Wants to stop. Looks in Theo’s blue-green sad-happy sincere-lying eyes and his heart fumbles.
Here sits a boy who you think you want to fix. Serve recovery for him on a silver platter. He melts it into a dagger. Here sits a boy who will drag you down with him, barbed claws in flesh as he free falls into oblivion. Or maybe here is a boy that you will latch on to, think: if I can not fix you, I will break myself on you. At least then we will be broken together. Or you think, until you become familiar with the back of him.
Liam shrugs, thinks of rain.
