I think my favorite thing about heartstopper at the moment is how Nick is freaking out about realizing he’s developing feelings for Charlie but he still…keeps hanging out with Charlie?? like he’s having a sexuality crisis but he still wants to invite Charlie to parties and defends him to his friends?? I just feel like a lot of people (or a lot of authors writing fictional people) would make the choice to distance themselves from the person who is causing them all this internal angst (at least until they can figure things out a bit more) but Nick is really out here trying to spend every possible minute with Charlie even though he can’t even decide for sure if he could have a crush on a boy
(It’s what it says about the kind of person he is, that he would rather do something that makes him happy even if it is also, simultaneously, very scary)
The look on Nick’s face, during the drum scene, when he realizes that he’s been staring at Charlie’s lips and wants to kiss him is THE most adorable thing. Everyone look at it right now.
