What Are Your Twenties If Not An Endless String Of The Ghosts Of Who You Thought You Would Become

“To die by your side is such a heavenly way to die…”

Nightless City

I need the public reaction to the Crown Prince coming out to be overwhelmingly positive, actually.

I need young queer people posting about how Wilhelm inspired them to come out. I need rapid flashes of tweets and messages about him and Simon; people being happy for them. Turning the blame onto whoever exposed such an intimate moment between two boys in love.

And to top it off? Queen Kristina's argument about "acceptance and patience"? Would become entirely baseless.
