Ik Im In The Minority Here Haha But I See Reader Not Coming From The Biggest Amount Of Money Maybe With

ik i’m in the minority here haha but i see reader not coming from the biggest amount of money — maybe with reader’s parents working in hotels she grew up with some but once her dad leaves for another woman/son he also takes a lot of the money with him, really fuelling felix’s saviour complex?????

no i see this!! i was actually thinking of something along these lines to add some tension!! giving reader's dad financial control could explain why reader hasn't cut him off yet (bc he helps pay for the part of school scholarships can't),, and it could add into the 'one foot in, one foot out' thing bc it's more like she's been around wealth than her being wealthy

i do think reader would very actively go out of her way to try to keep from playing into felix's savior complex tho!!

part of the reason they're so close and why felix isn't 100% sure reader would say yes if he asked her out is bc reader is the only one that doesn't perform for him in any way,,

that's where the trust comes from, reader doesn't pretend or try to portray herself in a way that she thinks he'd like bc she genuinely doesn't want anything from him except friendship and felix embraces and reciprocates it <3

also reader knows him so well and i feel like some of his friends (probably farleigh 😭) would bring up his pension for latching onto someone who needs help early on into their friendship in order to be snarky/maybe make reader insecure

reader would be so focused on trying to not become something for felix to 'fix',, it'd turn into a little bit of a reverse oliver situation,, first real fight is probably felix finding out how bad reader's dad is lmao

hi i'm a fellow divorced parents who hate each other person-

god that sucks, it's always horrible to be thrust back into that childhood fear, especially as you get older and start carving out a life for yourself away from that mess. for me, it almost feels like i'm learning to be a person again, having spent most of my childhood completely dissociated to try to ignore and avoid the fights. and it's worse when the parents don't realize they've affected you, don't recognize their mistakes and expect a wholesome perfect bond. god, i could talk all day about stuff like this, but idk if this is even helpful lol,, i just wanted to write to let you know you're understood, that you're not so alone as these things can sometimes make one feel.

hope you have a nice day/night 🖤

this is so kind and helped me a lot, i was honestly feeling kind of dumb bc of the way it affected me and the fact that i feel too old yp be that thrown by it

it helps to know i'm not the only one that experiences this kind of stuff and i appreciate that you took the time to message me this 🩷

off topic but do you guys think bestfriend!felix ever borrows reader's things??

like reader for sure wears his clothes regularly, but do you think from time to time felix sees an oversized sweater or shirt in reader's closet and he's like hm..

or!! if reader has jewelry he can get away with stealing for a little bit (we've all seen his bracelets),, maybe even hair ties from reader's room he keeps on his wrist

omg bestie jewelry exchange,, friendship bracelets

me hyping myself up to finish the last 400 words of my assignment so that i can get back to supporting the bestfriend!felix agenda

I feel like the readers first times are always involving felix and that made her look at his displays of affection in a more normal way

Like her first kiss, she says that was with a boyfriend but it was actually felix, but its just normal for them

wow i didn't even realize how true this was until i read it

reader lowkey gives has likely never so much as held hands with a guy before felix,, but she'd sooner pass away than admit it

farleigh has definitely asked at some last minute 'after party' which is just all of felix's friends sitting in his room after a party while drunk/high and reader would be fighting for their life fr (i feel like farleigh and bestfriend!reader would eventually develop a bit of a frenemy relationship)

oliver was definitely listening a little extra hard lmaoo

also my next comment is a little off topic and discusses smut (mentions virginity,, but isn't smutty or descriptive) but i'm putting it below a cut just in case anyone isn't comfortable with that

felix is generally possessive/jealous when it comes to reader, but he's for sure a lot more jealous when it comes to intimate/small things than casual hooking up bc it can be that casual/meaningless to him

but!! if reader is a virgin he is doing all he can to keep reader from losing it to anyone else,, not bc it's sexual (mostly), but bc losing your virginity implies too much intimacy for felix to let that happen 😭

also felix knows reader and knows she isn't really a casual hook up person (part of the reason he hasn't asked her out is bc he knows that'd instantly be such a serious relationship he can't afford to mess up when he's young and kind of dumb when it comes to romantic relationships) so he's doing all he can to keep that from happening,, sorry, he's the closest thing reader is getting to a boyfriend :)

also, this might be a little too much (feel free to disagree with this point), but i think deep (or maybe not so deep) down,, felix thinks he's going to end up with reader,, like they're meant to settle down together one day, so he knows anyone reader's with/hooks up with won't care about reader the way he does, they can't,, so he might as well be reader's first time

bestie when i tell you i am OBSESSED with your best friend!felix posts😭💜
