i will literally never shut up about Een Klein Leven but I'm doing a rewatch (again) and holy shit I will also never shut up about Ramsey Nasr's acting. The face he makes when Brother Puke tells him they're a couple now (yall know what i mean) is absolutely HEARTBREAKING
that is an EERILY childlike expression holy shit I'm about to throw something. he said đĽş
AND THEN THE FACE OF HEART SHATTERING ACCEPTANCE OF THE INEVITABLE
RAMSEY NASR WHEN I GET YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
whenever i see a fairly attractive sad looking guy im like omg jude
thinking about how jude didnât like having his photo taken and how after he died that meant harold and julia didnât have many photos to remember him by
"The only person who sees Jude for exactly who he is, is Malcolm..." "..and Jude hates him for it, Jude resents him for it.." "..the interventions Malcolm makes in his home."
- Hanya Yanagihara, A Little Life Play interview
"Willem's flaw is pretending....." "when you're having sex with someone, you can usually tell when they're not enjoying it.."
(indirect, Hanya's words, yet not in the interview ; "Harold's greatest flaw is not trying hard enough. He has compassion and love for those in his life, but he should have gone further."
"Andy, simply, is a bad doctor.")
willem a truck behind YOUđ
ifâŚ.if weâre doing headcanons,,,,,jude + willem domesticity?? đđ
Gonna hijack this ask a little bit and give you domesticness from their college days + including JB and Malcolm (partly bc I donât really have any domestic headcanons from Jude + Willemâs middle age years, partly bc Iâm an absolute fiend for the boys and their college days)
- Late night talks as they lay in their bunk beds, hands reaching out for each other in laughter, voices growing quieter when one of them falls asleep
- Jude bringing back leftover cookies and sweets from Batter that Allison gives him
- Leaving each other notes on their desks, reminders and bits of encouragement when they have exams. JB draws crude doodles on the notes.
- Sharing EVERYTHING with each other. They often donât even have to ask to borrow something
- Being unable to remain in fights/arguments for long, by the end of the night theyâre back to talking with each other
- Taking care of their friend when one of them inevitably gets sick from Pho Viet Huong
- Inside jokes! So. Many. Inside jokes. Gets to the point where their other shared friends outside of their little group begin to get annoyed
- Making abhorrent food combinations together because theyâre broke. Judeâs always turns out the best, and they marvel at how he can take the most dismal, meagre ingredients and create a delicious meal.
- Evening walks around Boston. Sometimes theyâre very talkative, jumping from one topic to another. Sometimes, they just enjoy the quiet and each others company.
- Constant, endless, silly teasing. Ex. Calling Willem their âdiversity hireâ for being the only one of them who is white.
- On that note, being incredibly defensive of each other when outsiders overstep the boundaries. No oneâs allowed to talk shit about them except each other, especially Jude. So much as look at him and his crutches in a vaguely judgemental way, and your life will be ruined by dawn break
- Getting tiny potted plants to keep in their room and taking care of them. They keep little schedules for who waters and when, marvelling at the plants as they grow
- Going to plays and movies and events together, the four of them attached at the hip, moving as a monolith, smothering their laughter behind their hands as people around them glare but not caring because theyâre so enamoured in the joy and pleasure of each other
- After wild nights out, taking care of each other when theyâre drunk/hangover, whoeverâs the most sober dragging the others down the block or onto the subway, cleaning them up and tucking them into bed, in the morning sitting by their bed as they get ill.
- Taking Judeâs crutches (with permission of course) whenever they need an excuse for something. âOh, I missed the midterm because I got injured, can I retake it?â
- Being each others family for graduation, whooping and whistling loudly in the crowd, taking thousands of silly pictures afterwards
- Talking shit about the professors, the TAs, the staff that they hate. Snickering to each other whenever one of them walk past them in the hallways
- Reading with each other, reading to each other, leaving notes in the back pages of books, swapping novels and magazines
- Late night subway rides, trying to make themselves heard over the clunky clatter of the subway trains, swaying in their spots as they clutch the hanging straps
iâm sorry but i canât stop thinking about jude having to wear one of those wigs when he was training to be a lawyer.
guess where i was today
Thinking about the wildflowers that Willem and Jude planted in the fields around their house and how theyâre probably still growing, year after year. They probably spread out over time, with no one to mow them or trim them back. They probably smother the house now, growing right up to the doorstep.
The happy years didnât last long enough. But the flowers will continue to grow.
i was really fucking stoned okay. đ
the peeta and jude parallels lowkeyâŚ
something i just find so hilarious is how obsessed with being comfy and cosy jude and willem are. like okay grown man shuffling about in his wee blanket in the morning and jude staying for five more minutes
