Em

A2 looks like he aged like 10 years in the seconds between donut hole and answering the phone my god the devastation.

charlie

WE CALLED IT I WASNT SURE IF THEY WERE MARRIED YET BUT WE KNEW IT WAS EDEN

Jess

this isn't even that surprising but it makes me want to throw up. i would have rather it been kidnappers.

Rav

What?!?!!??

Jess

they were around each other when a1 got married, but then apart for some years after (up until now) maybe that was 2006?

Eli

impeccable storytelling in leaving it here lmao you're mean

Jess

youve been making so many jokes(?) about eden singing in the shower, being right around them. you know everything!!

Ciggie

😎🍿

Jess

i some how knew to make a snack of hot tea and graham crackers. why is this making me feel sick?? i knew this was coming?? im actually glad it partially over. i feel so much sympathy for a2. he came to rescue jesus who got married and probably made a2 leave them alone.

vatican

ily u guys 🥰❤️❤️❤️

vatican

you are so mean to me 😔 all i do is draw nice things and you guys are so mean to me 😔

Ezra

This was such a devious way to end the chapter 😭😭😭

vatican

Em

I’m imaging a2 getting a call from Eden like “can you find him for me” and the fucking. Shitshow of emotion that would cause for him.

vatican

i am GOOD AND PURE OF HEART

Alley

vatican

casual reveal that the best man drawing is set in the past ehehehe

Ciggie

vatican

Jess

Jess

gemini

*distressed wailing noises*

Chandler

This is fine 🙃

Aphrodykie

Oh my god……. He’s so will graham coded

L

This is so FUCKING FUNNY SLLSKSKSKSKA

L

LITERALLY

L

MEEEE TOOOOOO it’s gonna be like a worldwide holiday for us

L

Honestly obsessed with this, I keep going back to look at it and wheezing. Your MIND!!!!!!

charlie

okay bc we didn’t have the context that i’m your (best) man was a flashback i assumed a1 wasn’t married to eden yet so i was like…… maybe secret fiance on the phone that a2 doesn’t know about? but wife that contracted her husbands boybestfriend/worse half to rescue him from his kidnappers is actually so much worse

L

I think I mostly feel fine about the implied levels of angst/pain/etc coming for us in the next chapters bc you’ve done SUCH a good job of making the timeline so impenetrable (to me at least) that I can just fixate on the little happy bubble timestamps you’re providing. It feels like the angst and love are happening at the same time in my brain which is so so so so good and interesting to me

L

VATI SO SMART!!!!!!!

L

Okay the dead eye contact and tension of the whole page is so fucking good it is making me NAUSEOUS. Getting back in their little glass cages!!!!!!!!

Jess

dude!! you helped me remember the other thing i wanted to say to you. which is remember when you made the guess a1 got his eden tattoo and had it crossed out in the same sitting? i think i was assuming they werent together very long. like it was a somewhat impulsive thing. i dont know how you knew it was eden when we all thought the best man pic was in the future. fascinating.

Alec

EDEN???!?!

charlie

call me will graham the way i’m a sweaty mess who can’t explain the leaps of logic i make—

charlie

no but lmfao vati puts a lot of clues out there and then i examine them all very closely and then put them in an old fast food bag and shake them really hard and sometimes something coherent pops out

Bug Sutman

"your wife" you know her name but i bet that distance helps with the pain, huh bud? sobssss

Em

lol the fast food bag is the DMs 😂

charlie

so true queen there’s a lot of wild baseless head cannoning that gets filtered out by the dms 😂

Jess

i can NOT get all of my thoughts out i need my own fast food bag. whenever we learn something new i have to go back and contextualize everything with the new information. and now all the times a1 made a move on a2 and he brushed it off. a2 got all blushy and kept walking away. friends my ass married a1 was making moves on him after it probably hurt a2 to find him for eden. i feel sick all over again and now i hate a1.

charlie

i (and emily lol beloved paper bag mate) have wondered if even a small part of a1 marrying eden is him trying to help a2 live a normal life. one of the things a1 yearns for more than anything else is the apple pie life right? wife 2.5 kids white picket fence and a house….. and he also wants that “normal” happy life for a2. like i think a1 blames himself for keeping a2 from his own chance at a typical life and by marrying eden even though they (our boys) know they love each other a1 is forcing this degree of separation to encourage a2 to make his own happy life. and now that a1 has tried to set this boundary a2 respects it even harder but now a1 is like “wait fuck i love you i need you” and a2 is like “you literally asked for this jesus what do you mean?” but this is one of the squished soggy fries in the bottom of the bag so idk

Em

You’re so right going back and rereading with this context is WILD. Like pretty fucked to do All That to your boy, a1. Like “your side” of the crumb bed SIR YOU HAVE A WIFE.

Helios

(one very quiet but very long scream)

Helios

JUST WENT THRU THE COMMENTS AND A1’S MARRIED TO THE PRETTY WOMAN WITH THE CURLY HAIR??? im obsessed……. i CANNOT wait to meet her!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Pensulliwen

Evil. Bad. Scheming with tiny rat hands.

Pensulliwen

I don’t know her but I KNOW she deserves better

Pensulliwen

With this added context I’m just going to assume the ringtone was Avril Lavigne’s iconic Girlfriend.

vatican

these comments are such a treat to read, sorry that my phone died after i got white girl wasted and wandered aimlessly around in the 112 degree vegas heat and got a tattoo and anyways u guys are very smart and i appreciate the time and effort u put into enjoying my art

baby sardine

nvm this is beyond the salad spinner now im sending them both to the glue factory. with express post

Jess

the crumb bed is tainted with more than just crumbs. and look yes charlie you are right. it’s a tragedy that a1 could have his normal life but his sense of duty to a2 means he never will. but a2 came out wrong in every universe he was never gonna have that. love is not logical I am always going to be on a2s side. thinking about how he must be hurting is making me insane. I’m glad you are having fun vati I don’t think any of us are insane by choice. it’s just such an incredible story. with cool pictures.

Sabrina

NOOO THATS NOT WHAT I MEAND WHEN I SAID THEYRE MARRIED VATI FUCK

vatican

DONT SEND MY SWEET LITTLE PONIES TO THE GLUE FACTORY!!!

vatican

Pensulliwen

Sabrina

Lex R.
