julian and paul's relationship felt like what maurice and clive's relationship would've been if they hadn't broken up and also lived in america
i LIVEEEEE for these obsessive unhealthy relationships
gorgeous writing i loved micahs ability to tell you a conversation happened and what was said without directly writing it out line by line
