“You’re fighting this war in the worst possible way.”

“I don’t know how to fight it, Dad.”

“You should ask for help,” he said.

“I don’t know how to do that either.”

{04/08/17} ~ {04/09/17} What is your favorite book? My favorite book is definitely Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe by Benjamin Alire Sáenz. It made my laugh and cry and question how I see love and family. What is your study space like? My dinky li'l study space is shown above. It's nothing fancy but its just the right size for me and has incredibke lighting from my triad of windows.

So I'm late to the party but anyway I have so much to say...

I am in the same time zone as Berlin so at 20:55 local time I was diligently doing my homeworks, even tho I took a few breaks, I was at it since 16:00. I decided it was time to stop and take a real break. Right at that moment I received a Druck notification about a new clip. Not a chat, a clip.

I had already given up the idea of a clip today. So I was not expecting it. And certainly wasn't expecting a sex scene.

I'm ace so sex scene aren't really my things. If it's a one where there is no feelings involved I just straight up don't feel anything. If there's feelings then I might feel the love of it, if it's well done and tender. But I never understand them. Like I understand that most humans want sex, have the desire to have sex. I aknowledge it. I get it. But at the same time I am unable to really grasp the concept. (It's not really clear but well.)

But this, this. I full on sob. I never thought I would sob during a sex scene, on tv or in books. Crying because of sex is another things I don't really get. But I did. And that was so moving. It was the most perfect first time love sex scene I have ever scene. It wasn't just a sex scene, it was a love scene, and that, that speaks to me.

Here is what I wrote in my diary (the diary I use to track how I'm doing, etc. the same diary I haven't write in, in a month because I don't have the energy) just after the first time I watched it (because I've rewatched it a thousand times since):

《 I am litteraly crying right now. Samstag 20:55 just made me sob like a fucking baby. This was so beautiful. From the beginning I keep talking about how Skam France and Druck are making me cry nearly every single week because I am in a state where tears would be logical. But apart form a small pearl during "Tu n'es plus seul" and Freitag 20:25 and tearless sobs during "Ich bin ein Junge" I've never really cried. I'm really hyperbolic about my crying. But there I am fucking not. The tenderness, the love, the beauty, the rawness, the nervousness, the realness, I am just unable to take it. I've never cried that much about a happy thing since I read the end of Aristote and Dante discover the secrets of the Universe more than two years ago. And I certainly never had cried that much over a tv show. I think I lost it when they show the binder. My thought was wow, they really did that, trans people must feel so represented right now, this is beautiful. And then they were kissing and I was fucking crying.

This is love at its purest essence and I don't know what to do with it. 》

So yeah I'm still not over it (I don't think i ever will tbh) and I certainly didn't finish talking about it.
