you're right miss addison. i am wonderful. so why don't you just...suffer.

[christopherlightwoodchasm]

there's a conversation in the book between Hawk & Mary that I think perfectly sums up his relationship with Tim:

"There are things I approve of less"

"Of our boy Skippy railing against the reds?"

"No. Of your breaking his heart"

"I lack all such intention"

"But not all such power"

"How are you enjoying Look Homeward, Angel?" "Immensely."

I adore that Mary had Tim's back from literally the first second they met. She didn't even know his name and she was protecting him

[sweetravelers]

I feel like a lot of people who watch the show view Hawk and it through a 2023 lense. When we should consider what the environment was like decades ago.

Yes, this exactly!

It's scary even NOW to be part of the LGBTQIA+ community, but I don't think a lot of people understand just how BAD it was back in the 50s. We will never fully understand what it was like to be queer back then and the lengths queer people had to go to just to survive.

I don't think any of us are really allowed to judge any of the queer characters in this show. Yes, Hawk included. We should be empathetic towards them and trying to understand WHY they are doing what they're doing. Because they ALL have their reasons. They are all just victims of the time period who are trying their best. And yeah their actions seem extreme and harsh to us in 2023, but back then that stuff was necessary for survival. You can't BLAME them. We need to not analyze and judge these characters based off of 2023 standards and perspectives and we need to take into consideration the time period in which this show is taking place.

And some people need to show more empathy and understanding towards Hawk. He doesn't ENJOY having to live a lie and hide part of himself. He doesn't ENJOY breaking Tim's heart. He doesn't ENJOY the fact that him and Tim can't be together. He doesn't ENJOY having to squash his love for Tim. He doesn't ENJOY having to do anything that he's done. He is only doing what he feels is necessary for the survival and wellbeing of himself AND Tim. Cut the man some slack.

Decided that if Showtime won't give me the Tim/Mary friendship I will write it.

My first fanfic of FT (and first one since 2017/18) being this is worrying.

But its the best bit of the book
