Alex X Henry - Tumblr Posts

🥹I love this

Sometimes I like to sit and think about how much Arthur Fox would have loved Alex. Loved his charm and his effervescence, his intelligence and his sense of humor. Mostly though, I think he would have loved how fiercely and passionately he loves his son. How he loves and wants the man Henry is and not the prince he was born as - the poetry loving, Austen quoting, witty and thoughtful letter writing man. He'd love the way Alex wants to love Henry out loud. How he isn't ashamed to want to hold his hand in public. He'd love the way he looks at Henry - like his whole world has narrowed down to one person - and how much he hates being separated from him.

He'd love the way Alex gets Henry's snarky sense of humor (and is ok being on the receiving end of said humor) and know that it's a sign of Henry feeling comfortable enough with Alex to let his walls down and let him in. He'd love that Henry has never been or will ever be a notch on his bedpost, NDA or no. He'd love the way Alex fights for him and them and so desperately wants Henry to realize that he's worth it and that his feelings and desires are valid and not something to be pushed down and aside. That he matters. He'd love the way Alex isn't afraid to tell the entire world that he's in love with Henry and that loving him has made his life better. The way that all Alex has to hear is Henry telling him he's not ok and he's dropping anything and everything to fly across an ocean to comfort him and remind him that he is loved and not alone.

He'd love the way Alex has no qualms about standing up to anyone - including the actual King of England - to defend Henry. I have a feeling he'd be tempted to throw hands to anyone who even deigns to look at Henry in a way he dislikes.

He'd love the way Alex's naturally outgoing and extroverted personality deflects and absorbs the spotlight that Henry doesn't want or feel comfortable in - much in the way that his friendship with Pez works.

Conversely, he'd love the way that Henry takes care of Alex. The way he keeps him watered and fed and not subsisting solely on coffee and a reheated piece of pizza every other day or so. How he calms the noise in his head but never makes him feel like he's too much. How he loves the fire and passion that Alex does everything with and always wants to hear what he's thinking. He'd love how perfectly suited they are to each other and he'd be so happy that his sweet Henry has found someone who knows exactly how special he is and loves him for just that reason.

Yeah...so this might have gotten away from me a little bit. I probably should have started with "in this essay I will..." because I am incapable of summing up my feelings in any kind of short and condensed way. I love these characters, this movie, the book, and all the extraordinary fanfic written about them. I'd warn you off me if they ever announce a sequel, but I'm pretty certain my behavior will be no different from the last 5 months.

The bloopers of 'Red, White and Royal Blue' ........😍😍🫠

If I had a nickel for every time an angsty blond prince of a European country fell in love with a curly haired “fuck the monarchy” latino boy, I’d have two nickels. Which isn’t a lot but it’s FANTASTIC that it’s happened twice

i didn't tell you i was scared

Part 3 of a new RWRB Hitman AU series by bananzie for Whumptober 2024

Rating: Mature Warnings: Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings Series: Part 32 of stars, stripes, and union jacks, Part 3 of hit me(n) baby one more time

summary: As bizarre as it was for a burglar to sleep in his bed, that didn’t stop Henry from pressing the barrel of his gun to the intruder’s head and flicking on the beside lamp.

“Alex?” Henry stuffed his gun back in his waistband and frowned. “What are you doing here?”

A very soft whine came from his pillow, but Henry would know those curls anywhere.

Why does no one talk about Shaan and Zahra being a couple? Was I the only one who didn't expect it?

If you haven’t laughed yet today, let me remind you that when Alex sent his first email to Henry he signed it “First Son of Your Former Colony and when Henry wrote back he addressed Alex as “First Son of Off-Brand England” 

If Alex from this time last year could see this... He'd say, 'Oh, I'm in love with Henry? That must be why I'm such a berk to him all the time.'

RWRB Fic

'Cause there were pages turned with the bridges burned

okay, so Alex most of the time is to the right of His Royal Highness. And it got me thinking, if they were to drive alone somewhere, in the UK Alex would be the driver and the other way around in the US. Which would be really confusing for them. But at the same time it kinda makes sense. It's more formal for Alex to drive somewhere the Prince. And in the US where Henry is far away from his family, his responsibilities and his title he can feel more free. He can drive himself and his boyfriend somewhere.

All of that for Henry's good side btw.

ok so remember john mulaney's snl monologue? the part where he mildly suggests that we stab trump? yeah so that energy but it's Alex who's delivering the snl monologue and instead of trump he says the queen

my favourite trope is when someone believes they're hard to love and someone who loves them like it's breathing

Leo and Jason as Alex and Henry

Truly the most intimate s-x scene I have ever scene. Like this was LITERALLY the characters making love. Just absolutely beautiful.

I'm so glad we didn't get the wide-angle naked writhing bodies shot for the Paris love making scene. Much as I'd like to see skin(of these men esp), focusing on close-up shots, their facial expressions and emotions made the scene so much more than a run-of-the-mill sex scene.

I haven't seen this done much in hetero sex scenes and I'm glad they did it here. The long shots actually make a sex scene look very clinical and impersonal. This one was borderline voyeuristic... like... The viewer is intruding into a very personal and intimate moment of the couple, which is what making love is.

I can't praise enough Matthew Lopez, Robbie Taylor Hunt, Taylor Zakhar Perez and Nicholas Galitzine for their commitment to this scene.
