Ok lets assess why you should binge it:

1. Gay (no need for further explanation)

2. Butt loads of trauma. You won't be disappointed

3. Good fandom, amazing fan art and fics

4. Character development isn't progressingx it's unfurling in this beautiful way that maked it seem like the characters have this personality in their core, and now they are slowing revealing it (like the actual personality doesn't change it just gets revealed I guess)

5.deely complicated and devoted relationship

6.cinematograohy is good

7. Main plotline is Edwardian think who is a reperessed gay and 100 ish years old technically serves cunt and bewitches everyone with his autistic mannerisms. Yes genuinely.

8. Lesbian relationship going on although the series is focused on the relationship between the two male MCs their relationship is not shoved into the shadows but doesn't take attention away from the main ship

9. Personalities are diverse and rich with plenty opportunities to discover more

10. Generally a well done unrushed series you can revel in. Word of advice is the first 2 episodes are a bit meh (personal opinion) but you get hooked episode 3 and you won't regret it.

This is a mood

THIS IS IT

I want to talk about THIS moment. Right before. There's a TON of people misreading Caitlyn's intent because she's using such a playful demeanor after Vi's sorrowful self-deprecation. To be honest, it's the best response she could have had, and the best tactic. Her demeanor serves as a stark contrast to the spiral of self hatred that Vi is going down, and it's an excellent distraction. Caitlyn is stopping her line of thinking, right then and there, and she does it while delivering one of the most romantic and understated declarations of love I've ever seen.

Stay with me here.

Let's be very clear: Caitlyn did NOT come to the cell with the goal of seducing Vi. Not even. How do we know? Aside from several context clues that come before this scene, the way Caitlyn responds to the kiss is very telling:

See how long it takes Cait to even register what the fuck is going on?? She's literally like "oh. OH. we're kissing? WE'RE KISSING." And Vi also OPENS HER EYES very briefly, to check that Caitlyn is as into this as she is, right as Cait settles into the kiss, likely sensing her hesitation/delayed reaction. This scene is NOT Caitlyn seducing Vi. This scene is Caitlyn giving herself to Vi, and Vi choosing exactly what she wants to do with her, which is VERY different.

What does Caitlyn say right before the kiss? She says, "Do you really think I needed all the guards at the hexgates?" Translation: I left Jinx's cell unguarded on purpose. I want you to know that I heard you during our last conversation. I want you to know that I trust you. I want you to know that my love and care for you is more important than my need to sate my grief and desire for revenge. I choose you.

And following: "Sorry to say, you've grown a bit predictable." Translation: I know you. I see you. I knew you would choose this, coming after your sister, and I facilitated the circumstances in which you COULD choose this. You don't choose wrong. You choose love, and I understand that now. I want you to know that I support your choices, and they won't cost you the people you care about, at least not me, not anymore. I know that you'll always choose your sister, and I've made peace with that. What you want is what I want.

That is MONUMENTAL. That's quite possibly one of the most romantic things I've ever seen in media. Because who the hell has the guts to give up their grief and forgive their mother's murderer, all for love? That's a level of sacrifice that not enough people are acknowledging.

People say Caitlyn never changed, never felt remorse, never grew from the bad choices she made. I say wrong. And this was the turning point.

Soulmate au where the universe fucked up and accidentally put Edwin and Charles in separate time periods. It's like, "Fuck, they'll meet each other too late, if at all." But then Edwin dies, and the universe is like "Oh cool, so he can get reincarnated in the correct time period to meet Charles." Until it finds out he's stuck in Hell and it's like D: But then he escapes. And he makes it back to his old school. And he bumps into Charles. As a ghost.

And the universe is like "Okay, well this isn't ideal, but they did finally meet. Edwin can function as Charles' guardian angel." And then Charles dies.

And at this point, the universe thinks nothing can surprise it anymore until Edwin comes in with the lantern and gently reads to him as he dies. And one final time, the universe makes the incorrect prediction of Charles and Edwin choosing to step into the afterlife so they can get reincarnated and get to be proper soulmates in their next life. But they both decide to stay ghosts. So after the initial shock it's like "You know what? Good for you. Glad you got to be soulmates in this life like you were supposed to be."

And sure, neither of them seems to realize they were supposed to end up together romantically rather than platonically. But they just seem so happy together, either way, what's the point in trying to force it. They'll figure it out eventually. By the time Edwin realizes he's in love with Charles in Port Townsend, the universe is throwing its metaphorical hands up and whooping with glee.
