The parallelisms✨

I also love the hc that Edwin needed to confess to Charles in orther to get out of hell. He needed to stop being angry, to think, to clarify that he wasn't angry to Simon, to Charles and to himself. But most importantly, he needed to let go of his past through forgiveness ("come with me") and accept his feelings and that part of himself ("Charles, I'm in love with you").

That's why he confessed on the stairs, still in hell; because he needed to feel worthy of scaping in orther to do so.

Something about the Devlin house being a cesspit of old anger and pain.

Something about Charles laughing off the way his father smashed his cassette with a hammer.

Something about Crystal, who almost breaks the cassette in the Devlin house's hidden room with a hammer, nearly destroying Charles by accident.

Something about Charles, who always smiles to make others happy, even when he's hurting.

Something about Crystal, who's asked to think happy thoughts for the sake of getting them all out in one piece, and can't.

Something about how Charles cries when he reads the diary passage about walking on eggshells, reminded of his own father.

Something about how Crystal lashes out later, telling Charles he's made the people he cares about the most have to walk on eggshells, too.

Something about Crystal and Charles, with their mirrored worries about how people will view them if they see what lies under the surface.

Something about Crystal projecting her own fears, hard, and hurting both herself and Charles in the process.
