Favorite Malex quotes- "You came." "You asked me to."
Sometimes your heart needs more time to accept what your head already knows.

forget about all those rap songs, ac/dc has the best ass-shaking music and u can’t tell me otherwise
I can't believe I'm seeing people calling this season the definition of "cosmic" when we have not only had ZERO Malex interaction in 5 episodes but also had to put up with
A) Alex being in danger and reaching out to his "cosmic" boyfriend's ex, instead of reaching out to his boyfriend directly AND the "clues" all being things the audience knew nothing about until they were said in the episode, making them carry zero weight
B) Michael not showing one single iota of worry that his boyfriend hasn't called to check in in DAYS. Not a "made it to the hotel finally" text, not a "just called to say goodnight" call, not a "me after sleeping in the car last night" pic of a hunched old man, not a "found my 5th balloon! I can't wait to get home to you, I miss my 👽" text, NOTHING.
If I hear one more person try to justify this shoody writing that paints Michael in a way we KNOW isn't right by saying "it's only been a few days, he said he'd be out of range, Michael had no reason to worry", I'm gonna scream.
Spoiler alert, even aside from all those reasons being dumb, you don't need a reason to worry. Worry just HAPPENS. And for someone with abandonment issues like Michael we should be seeing him worry! Even if he thinks maybe he's overreacting so he doesn't tell anyone else he's worried, WE as the audience should be seeing his worry because that's what you do when you love someone. You worry about them.

something about loving a character and wishing the narrative did too
the rnm writers escalating from “alex is missing and nobody notices or cares” to “alex is missing and people have noticed but only care so far as it’s an inconvenience to them that they can’t get a hold of him” is exactly what i should have expected from them. to the point that i’m honestly shocked i didn’t anticipate it more.
