I wonder what Aaron and Nicky thought of Andrew and Neil sharing a bed for the entirety of the cousins’ fifth year so that little Robin could live in their dorm. Like, Andrew and Neil… shared… a TWIN BED… a twin BUNK BED for a whole school year.

Was there teasing on Nicky’s part? Was Aaron indifferent or did he have something smart to say? Is sharing a twin bed for that long even comfortable? At least those boys are SMALL because I mean…

#like actually the most me i have A LOT of feelings about the credit people who menstruate don’t get for menstruating#oh you gave a good presentation? cool. i did the same thing WHILE ONE OF MY ORGANS WAS CONSTANTLY AND PAINFULLY CONTRACTING#oh you had to stand on the train? me too WHILE THE LINING OF ONE OF MY ORGANS SHED ITSELF#oh you had a good run today? me too WHILE ACTIVELY BLEEDING LIKE LOSING VISIBLE SOMETIMES SUBSTANTIAL AMOUNTS OF BLOOD#oh you had to stand up for eight hours while at work today? me too WHILE WRACKED WITH CRAMPS AND WORRYING ABOUT LEAKAGE#oh you thought that meeting/flight/drive was long? me too AND I HAD TO WORRY ABOUT THE GUSH FACTOR WHEN STANDING AFTER#it is such a ~thing to menstruate politely#so much work. so expensive. so much emotional labor involved. sometimes so painful.#and many many many people do it!#and that extra obstacle goes totally unacknowledged#because even though about half the population will do it at some point in our lives it’s….rude?#because people don’t want to hear about the lived realities of menstruating people’s lives?

the peak of existence is knowing that of all the times we could have lived we got to do it when andrew ‘i dont talk to anyone ever or look at them when they speak’ minyard talked to neil josten on the back of a bus w/out taking his eyes off him once or tuning out for three (3) fucking hours.
