Katie H

Charlie understands the feeling all too well 🥹

Katie H

Everyone in the Paris squad is going through such a hard time, I can't cope 😢

Maddy

This reminds me of the exact conversation that Nick had with Tara on the beach episode 1 season 3

Astrid H.

It makes me remember the same kind of talk Tara had at the prom, but with Nick!

Valeria Rodriguez

Hadn’t considered he understands from both sides. Him not wanting to talk about an issue and being the one wanting to be there for Nick, but Nick isn’t wanting to talk.

Maddy

The little kiss cheek really shows how close they are. I feel like Tara and Charlie have such an underrated friendship. I love them sm 🥺🥺🥺

Charlie

No body wants to talk about their future. Sounds very familiar 🫣

zara ahmed !!

tara and charlie best friendism means the world to me

Katie🐝

Why is the little kiss gonna make me cry 😭😭

Ulises

Awe the little kiss on the cheek 🥹❤️

Tyne Swedish

They all need several appointments with Geoff

lexi

i love you tara jones

Hunter

I have a feeling Darcy is having issues with her mom that are indirectly affecting(effecting?) Tara

arlo🦕

they’re going through such similar things

rickettyuncles

I love how the Heartstopper characters go through similar troubles at the same time, sometimes unknowingly. A good reminder to us all that we’re rarely alone in a problem ❤️❤️❤️

ella

Steven

This channels the beach scene with Nick & Tara from the show so much!

Sadie Rue

the lil kiss on the cheek i’m crying😭😭

Ania W.

Is Tara going to uni? Is she planning a gap year with Darcy?

raina

taracharlie bestieism!

laura

charlie: oh i think i’ve seen this film before 😰

Barb

charlie subconsciously associating it with nick🥺

Bloomin’ smol cuppa

And now it’s time for a drunk in full panic mode Nick to meet with a thoughtful Charlie ❤️ words are just as loud as actions Nick, start using them.

Sarah Jacobs

I adore you Alice, I adore Heartstopper, and I respect the need for angst and the journey. However I need some happy, love, cringe, adorableness, sappiness soon please 🥺❤️🍂

tess ^_^

baby girls 😭😭🙏🏻

Chloe ♡

the cheek kiss 🤍 charlie understands tara more than she realises

Katrina

I love their friendship ❤️ and Charlie can relate because Nick won’t talk and he wants to be there for Nick. I am sure they will talk soon though.

vbarcenes29

i love seeing charlie and tara! but yeah similar situations:(

gaby

something positive out of all of this is it's nice to see tara and charlie be open and talk to each other about this stuff ):

.

charlie and tara’s facial expressions are drawn so well in this page!

Rosie

That’s what I was thinking! The way Nick was recognising in Charlie what Tara was saying about Darcy, and this time it’s Charlie who’s being reminded of Nick ❤️‍🩹

artxsta

i love how tara has this convo w charlie now in the comic vs in the show when she had it w nick at prom at the end of s2. in these storylines, both boys knew they needed to talk to each other, and she seemed to get the gears turning / act as some sort of catalyst. also loving the evolution of tara and charlie’s friendship, it’s so sweet. i hope they talk to / lean on each other more !

Juliana Barhorst

The Charlie and Tara duo we never knew we needed!! ❤️🥺

Elfi

The little kiss is so adorable! ❤️ I feel like I really needed something like this after all these really tough pages.

Brittney

Aww my heart, Tara and Charlie 🤧🥰 but oh I'm hoping everything is going to be okay between Tara and Darcy, but yeah... we all know how you feel in that way Tara. I know Nick will explain a lot more, but I understand how hard it can be especially now, since everything is kind of overwhelming for him too especially with everything because even though we know how much Nick has been Charlie's number one supporter, there's no denying how much impact it took on Nick's health with finding out about with Charlie's mental health journey

Oliver

Tara got to him before Nick did, but she left after him 😂😂 ohhh nick dear me

Ania W.

I've always loved the way you draw Tara. She radiates incredible warmth 🫠

ellen de Ruiter

I think charlie is going to confront nick for not talking, but nick is drunk. This wont go well

Arakii

Aww we don’t get enough Tara and Charlie moments! This is so sweet

Arakii

See that, Nick? Charlie’s a really good listener. You should let him listen to you sometime 👀

Bonersniper

I really appreciate the placement of the scenes here. We see Charlie being empathetic and listening, after nick just stuck his foot on his mouth by not listening/understanding and then doing a "well in our relationship." Excellent flow

lauren

the way this parallels the charlie and tara conversation in paris 🥹

Beam Bugge

this was the exact conversation she had with nick in the show at prom! so first charlie repressed his feelings and now nick's doing the same... oh boy

June

I feel so bad for Charlie & Tara, they know that something is going on with Nick & Darcy but don't know how to help or be there for them when they refuse to talk about it or ignores their problems🥺 I really hope we see them open up soon and say what is on their minds..

Lolli98

I guess she speaks from his heart! Also, Tara-Charlie kiss = extremely cute!😊🥰 I wonder why Tara didn't mention the little argument between Nick, Elle and Tao? Yes Charlie, please go inside now and save your boyfriend from whatever he is doing right now!🙏

Carly Louise

Awww platonic gay kissies 🥰🥰🥰

Theaterboi27

But Nick gave her some advice and encouragement at the prom. I feel like Char should do the same instead of just saying that is tough.

Carly Louise

Charlie's little dimple 😍

Justin S.

Guess no one wants to chat!

Theaterboi27

Doesn't that sound familiar, Char? Yet no words of encouragement? Should Char say more than That's Tough? BTW Tara, did you maybe want to mention Nick is inside having a drunken meltdown? The little cheek peck is adorable, though!!

Lolli98

Interesting that Tara and Darcy plan on travelling after school. Good for them!👍

Bee Levy

i love how tara is normally a mirror for nick but now she's mirroring charlie!! that's such a fun subtle reversal!!

Gracie

I love their relationship!

Shin__

Season 2 Prom flashbacks but with Charlie swapping Nick…

Hannia Diaz

Charlie was THISCLOSE to scream: SAME!

val

crying

Adrian

This friendship ❤️

Meike

Charlie needed time to find the courage to open up about his issues in the past, so I could imagine he is worried because he knows something is wrong, but remain patient

ucfnurse

Time to move on….😯🫢🫶🏻💔❤️‍🩹🙌☕️🥯☀️🌻🎼🎧✌️🕊️☮️

Kenzie Mullen

Alice… I can’t imagine not waking up to these stories every morning. I will miss them so much after volume 6 is gone.

Cody

Ugh, Alice 😭

Claire

Oh that picture where Tara is kissing Charlie is so lovely. 😍 One for the memory wall. At least they have each other for support as they all go through it. Being a teenager can be so very hard at times.

Taylor

Nooo, wait, Tara! You were supposed to tell Charlie Nick needed his help! 😆

GirlHero

real!! i love tara. there’s something about knowing other people are going thru it, and don’t have the answers either. it can feel comforting, or like a bit of a relief ❤️‍🩹.

Button

Oh my heart!!! Love the role reversal and that Tara is always the one to bring out something in either Nick and Charlie. She's just the best and wise beyond her years!!

emma hupp

i love their friendship so much

Emily B

I love it when we get these sweet little moments between characters whom we don't get to see interacting very often 🥰🥺🤧

2catlovers

I was thinking about that. Looks like Tara has definitely ditched Oxbridge then!

Mara

The cheek kiss😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

Maddy

Okay, but like... Can we appreciate Taras's fit in the last panel? Body tea... Just me?

ValkyrionSS

Okay but I love how this mirrors Nick and Tara's prom convo in Netflix S2 🥹

Xalek

I'm looking forward to seeing more but what's going on with Darcy won't be nice because everything in heartstopper feels so real.

Nyssa Rawther 🍉

I love that Tara's issues with Darcy always gets Nick and Charlie thinking about their own issues. At prom, at the beach and now here. She is our bestie fr. I LOVE the cheek kiss. Platonic love is SO important. They're so cute and I wanna see more of their friendship! Love that we're seeing more of other people's plans for post-Truham. Now, where's Nick and what's going on with Darcy?? 👀👀

RCM

I keep sitting here, finding myself (slightly irrationally) so emotional over this page, but so full of gratitude and hope that we get to experience seeing friendship and love like we do in Heartstopper...I mean, the way they all try to understand each other, to listen, to communicate as best they can, to be there for each other to celebrate the highs and to weather the lows...it's giving me life right now. It's making me a better person as I read and think about how I can intentionally do the same for my friends. And, the wisdom and insight behind the word choices that Tara makes here (and the ones we know Charlie is echoing silently) are breaking me. They BOTH are emotionally intelligent regarding their respective partners. I love how Tara shares that she KNOWS Darcy isn't telling her everything, and yet we see she doesn't judge Darcy, or question her own worth in Darcy's love or loyalty to them, but instead aches for Darcy...she sees and loves ALL of Darcy (as Charlie sees and loves all of Nick) and she HOLDS SPACE for Darcy to open up to her when Darcy is ready. I feel like Charlie has been doing the same for Nick...listening, putting it all together, encouraging conversation but not forcing it (yet). The panel of just him today shows the awareness of all he has been observing and carrying as he tries to decide when and how to talk to Nick more..."that's tough." I can see why Darcy doesn't want to talk to Tara about their (new and exciting news!) trip in detail though. Darcy clearly would want to go and is likely dreaming daily of all the wonderful moments they will have (which may be exactly what is giving her strength to survive whatever is going on in her world), but the reality of HOW to financially and realistically make this happen with a homophobic mum is too overwhelming. I'd procrastinate facing reality and cling to the dream too, Darcy, especially as I suspect you think you could possibly disappoint Tara. It parallels Nick NOT talking to Charlie about trying to decide about university and his own future. He doesn't want to disappoint Charlie, or his mum, and he is still sitting on top of ALL his other childhood trauma issues from his parents divorce and dad's shaming that still need to be processed (because they are poking at him all the time now!). I think what hits me most on this page is the soft, tender concern and care they have for their partners and also for each other. Just as both Tara and Charlie could get way in their heads here, Alice lightens the mood and we get the sweetest cheek kiss which is an affectionate and visual reminder that none of us are alone, that talking to friends can help, and it's a lovely "thank you" for listening and hearing. I love the last panel as Tara gives a hopeful over the shoulder wave, too. "Yeah?" "Yeah." It's not perfect, there wasn't a solution, but there was a shared moment of vulnerability and worry for their partners, and by this simple act of sharing, a new feeling of HOPE was born. And that HOPE is what I needed today...going sit on this page for a bit longer-xx

Jo Mary

Aww poor Tara hopefully Darcy tells her what’s wrong and Charlie nick needs you now x

Evergreen

I hope this conversation softens Charlie up to face a likely very obnoxious Nick Nelson whenever they find each other. Speaking of finding each other, I’m surprised that Tara didn’t tell him to go find Nick. Is she just preoccupied with her own problems, or is she mindful of the fact that Charlie isn’t (or shouldn’t be) the only person capable of taking care of his boyfriend? 🧐

Daya

Poor cuties🥺

Merel

This reminds me of Nick and Tara's conversation during the beach day 🥲

Eileen

😍

Cliff

I hope Darcy’s evil Mom didn’t just throw her out of her house! Aled’s Mom still wins the “worst mother in history” award, as far as I’m concerned, but that’s only apparent to readers of “Radio Silence.”

Tanya

"Next year when we go travelling"? I'm excited for them! How fun is that going to be, assuming the get past this bump. 🥰

Matt Leicht

That little smooch was perfect in every way

Calfic

The page was SO good. I think it may be a combination of a few reasons that Darcy isn't talking, but I think she didn't come tonight, maybe for similar reasons in Perfect in the TV series where her mom isn't approving of her outfit and something happened. (Or something like that.) I also saw some people be mildly upset about Charlie not giving advice, but it's not like he has had any luck himself and as I have said, he has done everything "right" (or as an adult, how I would approach it.) but if someone doesn't want to talk, there is only so much you can do. The kiss is so cute too. I love the Charlie/Tara friendship!

Calfic

I personally think everyone is so preoccupied that they are not picking up on Nicks issues which is okay!

Murgy

Sometimes all we need is a small vent to a friend. I would have thought Darcy might have thrown themselves into planning travelling, as its an escape from home and her mother. But then again, if her mother is making threats about that I can see why she'd back off from it. That or depression could be feeding the distance and the increasing issues with time and actually being about. On the flip side its nice to see a window into Charlie and Tara's friendship :)

Lolli98

Oh, interesting. I started reading Radio silence yesterday.😊

Elena

Charlie got reminded of the fact, that Nick also doesn't talk to him about his worries and so he can comprehend Taras feelings very well at the moment, for sure. 😞

Elena

Don't even want to think about that already! 🥺 We so need a S4!

Theaterboi27

But Nick gave some good advice to Tara at prom. He told her she would just have to try. I was hoping Char had some words of wisdom for Tara here. Something simple but poignant.

Ana Alicia Aranda De Contreras

Tara and Darcy are also having problems in their relationship but since Nick doesn't open up to Charlie, Darcy doesn't open up to Tara either 😔💔

Jazmine Terson

AWEEEEEE I LOVE THEIR FRIENDSHIPPPPP
