She tells him everything is fine and essentially to fuck off, yet doesn't take her eyes off him for a second as he's walking away. She wanted him to stay so bad, and he did, in the moment she was slipping and needed someone most. The moment he sticks around, she allows herself a second of vulnerability in such a stressful shift. He affirms and comforts her, something she hasn't been able to get a lot of today. Their dynamic is genuinely so everything to me I can't :'(((
sure maybe people see that she’s sleepy and ready to check out early. but I also see she is still making time for him despite it all. I see two people who have enough trust to give each other space to vent and be vulnerable. these gay siblings gotta look out for each other. never ever separate these bugs <3
Trinity referring to Dennis as “My Huckleberry”
other people talking to Trinity and referring to Dennis as “Your boy.”
other people talking to Dennis and referring to Trinity as “your girl.”
just…them…referring to each other as theirs. other people referring to them in the same way. like…they get it. they come as a set. do not separate.
my new favorite thing.
Whitsantos makes me so fucking crazy and it's so obvious how much Dennis loves Trinity and how much he gets her, knows exactly the kind of person she is.
"You leave your dirty clothes everywhere." Meaning Dennis goes home after a punishing day at work and feels free to shed his skin.
"You eat all of my avocados as soon as they ripen." Meaning a previously food-insecure Dennis, who was sneaking sandwiches at work, knows for keeps that he will be fed.
"You keep pausing the tv to ask the dumbest questions." Meaning Dennis knows that Trinity will answer his questions, no matter how dumb.
Dennis Whitaker feels safe with Trinity Santos. End of transmission.
