I do like the different ways you can read this. A2 not hearing the full stop at the end of A1's question, "make me...?" instead of "make me?" and offering something light and comforting. I also like reading it as A2 knowing full well what A1 is asking and refusing in the gentlest way possible, in the only way he can because god forbid they talk about anything directly :)) having a good time

I've been staring at this for some time now. I think this is the comic that touched me the most until now. It's all fun and games until you're like ...oh. and then it stops being about blond men and it becomes about you actually

prescriptionhugsx · February 13, 2026

so... a1 was all sass until he got disarmed by his own desires? 🥹 and he can't ask for it like a normal person and a2 is a sweet baby idiot and doesn't get a clue even if it hits him square in the face (or pokes him right in the belly, i guess).. 😭❤️ and that little lopsided smirk does me in every single time it's probably my favorite facial expression ❤️🤌🏻

Timonger · February 13, 2026

Ugh, like as much as a1 wants it he can't allow himself to want a2 and the only way he can get what he want is if a2 forces him (elaborate rituals/gothic heroine coded) but that's (probably) what he did with Thomas cause he (a1) should want to do *that* with some one he loves, Thomas wouldn't do that with him if he didn't love a1, right? So his desire and shame and disgust and lust are all twisted and melded together until they can't be separated so why can't a2 just make him? 🥺😭💔 (Ouch, I hurt my own feelings with that one)

Lil Guy · February 13, 2026

ugh misery again how did we all know 😭 but seriously, I love how much trust you put in your audience to read into the details without hand holding via narration. It’s so refreshing. Something something show don’t tell, lol. Idk these boys just feel so grounded and real to me to the point where even just a glimpse into their lives feels like something I shouldn’t be watching. I’m hanging on every word.

v
vatican · February 13, 2026

thank you thank you thank you😭🙏🙏🙏 they do lowkey feel like real little people in my mind and my job is to observe and document them. and i really do appreciate that its a two way street, its so gratifying to have people point out and read into all the little stuff thats tucked away in there

Bleak · February 13, 2026

the way i interpreted that “make me” one way then came back and interpreted in another i’m gonna be sick

A1 hiding his face under his shirt while saying THAT is so fucking heartbreaking oh my god

v
vatican · February 13, 2026

embarrassed by his own reaction/doesn’t want a2 to see him distressed/cant look at a2’s sad little face/cant face a2 when asking for that…..like… i can fit so much shame and self loathing in this guy

Ciggie · February 13, 2026

impending a2 crash out cancelled the a1 crash out... he took one look at a2's sad little face and was just like okay lets lock in

E
Estrilda · February 13, 2026

You can fit so much maladjustment in this skinny motherfucker *slaps A1's back to indicate and gets absolutely bodied by A2* Prediction: A1's going to tuck all his tears and trauma away and smile and say that'd be good

v
vatican · February 13, 2026

like i think my favourite thing about this whole thing is the fact that its not even a2 touching him that triggers him, its himself getting turned on by a2 touching him... like sex is one thing, reconciling with his own arousal is another..... we can fit SOOOO much maladjustment into this guy

Helios · February 13, 2026

the tragedy of a2 truly never being able to actually understand where a1's head is at HOWEVERRRRRRR "lemonade?" is killing me 😭😭 thats so sweet... "hell yeah time to fu- hey whats up. oh you want a drink? yeah lemme do that" the odd innocence in him asking that juxtaposed to what was just happening
