    Summary

    "For a long time, Willow hated herself. She hated the feelings that bubbled up inside her; she hated having something that she needed to hide; she hated proving her dad right. It's better than it used to be, hatred simmering down into disdain, disdain simmering down into neutrality. She decided that she could just go about her life ignoring it— shove the thoughts, the feelings, the truth away, and pretend that she's 'normal'. Of course, that's not exactly been working out. She's not naive nor desperate enough to think that this stupid course will change her— if she wasn't able to change herself, no one else can."

    -

    Willow just needs to keep her head down until graduation, and then she can escape her hometown for good. Unfortunately for her, nothing in her life ever seems to go to plan. When her father suddenly sends her off to True Directions, a conversion camp, she's forced to face everything she's been desperately trying to avoid.

    Summary

    “I keep imagining telling you all of this in person and then immediately shoving a gun down my throat and killing myself. Because then you’d look at me differently. Or worse— you wouldn’t. You’d look at me exactly the same, and I wouldn’t know what to do with that.”

    His voice cracks slightly, but he keeps going.

    “I don’t want you to feel like I’m breaking in front of you.”

    “But I think I already am. I think I already did. I think you looked away. I think you still care. I think you’re scared. I think I love you. No. I Know I love you. I’m as sure of it as Dustin is about wavefunctions collapsing the moment you try to define them too precisely.”

    “Will, I always wonder… if we too, would collapse if one of us tries to define what we are too precisely.”

    OR

    In which Mike and Will get high, make terrible decisions, and avoid one very obvious conversation for an impressive amount of time.
