This chapter was so CUTEEEEE OH MY GOD. I do have an unnerving sense of foreboding with how it ended but we’ll see when we get there but for now, their cute Christmas village date! Hayden is such a sweetheart honestly he deserves everything good to him. They walk around and talk about the fake snow around them and how it’s not rlly cold (also dissing early 1930s asbestos snow and kids that drank morphine ). Hayden goes on about the nature of plays and fantasy’s once more, building off what he said before. How people are willing to suspend their disbelief for a while, but the emotions, the feelings they have during that fantasy are not false. I love this honestly. It’s like he’s telling Brett it’s okay if their relationship has been fake up til now, what they felt and how they enjoyed themselves was not fake, effectively countering Brett’s more transactional view of their relationship that if he can’t give anything tangible, real to Hayden, its not enough, it’s not effective to show affection. Hayden is simply saying,” I don’t care, let’s just be in this fantasy together. What we feel matters more”
After this they KISS UNDER THE LIGHTS AND SNOWWW and Hayden thanks Brett for giving him a chance. The next part doesn’t rlly translate well, but Brett compares Hayden and whatever he felt during his gangrape but I can’t rlly figure what it’s trying to say tbh. But I like the callback to episode 6 where Hayden is leading Brett. They eat dinner and are cute.
Though the episode ends with them making out in the car and seemingly going to sex, and since this is like RIGHT after the rape scene I wonder if Hayden’s going to find out I’m getting real concerned about Brett’s condition tbh after that comparison scene. But another amazing chapter
