most days Connor spends the night at the Hansen’s not only to get away from his family but because both he and Evan sleep better together
Connor tends to wake up early and instead of trying to weasel his way out of Evan’s grip, he just stares down at him and thinks about how glad he is to be alive
Evan is actually pretty good at helping Connor with his anger issues
Their dates consist of a lot of nature walks
For their senior trip, the boys + Jared, Alana, and Zoe take a road trip to Yellowstone national park
Evan creates a swear jar that funds most of the gas money for said trip thanks to Connor and Jared
Connor tends to be pretty bad at taking care of himself sometimes but will immediately cook Evan a five-course meal if he finds out he forgot to eat
On the really bad days, Connor sings to Evan during panic attacks
Evan makes a lot of really bad puns to get Connor to smile
on Connor’s bad days, Evan just listens to Connor talk about what’s bothering him and plays with his hair while Connor lays on his lap
Weekly board game nights are a thing, Uno has been banned.
“Connor if you put down draw 4, we’re breaking up”
Evan definitely wears Connor’s clothes home ‘accidentally’ and Connor wants to be mad but his boyfriend looks adorable in his oversized hoodies
They don’t end up going to prom but the gang goes over to the Murphy’s after and they watch movies all night
around 3 am, Evan finds Connor sitting outside looking at the sky and they talk until the sun comes up
at some point, Evan tells Connor he doesn’t know how to dance so Connor stands up and tries to teach him, mostly they’re just swaying back and forth and laughing
Evan still writes his letters even after he stops going to therapy, most of them are addressed to Connor now and he’ll sometimes give them to him to read when he can’t verbally explain how he’s feeling
They’re at the Orchard the first time Evan tells Connor he loves him
I started listening to the Penumbra one year ago today, so here’s the scalies in fancy modern clothes to mark the occasion. image description is under the cut
Saying “I’m back on my bullshit” is funnier when you cycle through hyperfixations at random intervals because no one knows what bullshit you’re talking about unless you’ve made it obvious before or while saying it.
To be back on your bullshit you need to be off your bullshit ever. But I’m over here jumping from bullshit to bullshit like I’m playing some kind of platforming game. The only times I’m not on my bullshit are when I’ve fallen off the platforms and can’t get out of the lava to get back on my bullshit.
the overwhelming grief of losing an entire year to sickness, violence and pandemic fatigue is settling in so id like to remind everyone that: you are not a failure, yes there is still a happy future for you, and wearing a mask is very sexy
Looks like we’re surging again at the start of 2022 so here’s a reminder as well
Don’t be hard on yourself if you are unproductive or not progressing as far in life as you thought you’d be by this point. The amount of collective trauma we are expereincing is immense and if all you did this last year was survive then you completed the hardest and most important task. Incredably sexy of you
Costesting my favourite vampire man for Halloween and the aesthetic is taking over. I’m now drinking red wine and sitting in the dark in my poet shirt and having such a good time
