What says nonchalance more than half-assing a gesture that literally means you don't care?
omg perfect TT

And Amber sits there, begrudgingly inching into Suzy's world, watches closely as the strands of Suzy's hair slide from the tuck behind her ear because she constantly rakes her fingers from forehead to nape.
i really like how little effort amber has to put in through all of this, she literally just gets sucked in because suzy doesn't leave her any choice (not that she minds)

Suzy talks with her hands, reads with emotions playing in her eyes, gasps dramatically at plot twists she has read before.

In the following weeks, Amber has learned that Suzy is only willing to die for two things: Peanut butter and poetry.
this is the first time i've read a characterization for suzy, and i love it - she's so complex, but in a way that doesn't read complex at all? she's really easy to love, but in a way that lets you know that it's gonna hurt later on

Amber gradually realizes that maybe, just maybe, she's the tail that Suzy likes to wear proudly.
i cannot tell you how much i loved this analogy, as soon as i read this i like snapped my fingers and went "EXACTLY"

AHHHH THE ENDING
oh man oh man

i loved it? like i know you don't but i love how empty and sad this entire story feels, and how dark suzy is on the inside, and how amber is witness to the madness when all she really wanted was a friend/girlfriend
you're always terrific ♥
