Six different reactions to the news.

Summary
“Kiss me.”
Simon blinks, unsure he heard right over the loud music. But no, Wille is stepping up close, hands sliding around Simon’s waist in exactly the kind of intimate way that best friends don’t touch each other, and a wild, pleading look in his eye.

“Come on, then.”
“Hmm?”
“Whatever it is you need to tell me. The reason you summoned me.”
“Okay, we didn’t ‘summon’ you anywhere,” says Wille; but he exchanges a look with Simon, who gives him a brief, reassuring nod. He lays one hand up on the table and Wille takes it, linking their fingers together as they present a united front. “But…we do have something we wanted to ask you.”

Summary
“You didn’t want to meet me, Simon? Everyone else is over in the other building, desperate to meet me.”
“Then what are you doing here?” It was, maybe, a bold thing to say to one’s future monarch; but something tells him his instincts were right when Wilhelm doesn’t look offended by the question. On the contrary, he looks almost pleased.
“I’ll answer yours if you answer mine.”
“To be frank,” says Simon, bluntly honest because he’s tired, stressed, and doesn’t have time for this, “I’ve got more important things to do.”

Summary
“I can recommend the waffles, if you’re looking for something sweet?”
Wille’s lips twitch, as if he wants to laugh, and Simon finds himself smiling in kind. He hadn’t even meant that one to sound like flirting, it just seemed to be the way all their conversations ended up. Not that he was complaining.

Summary
Leaving military service and taking up Crown Prince duties full-time has left Wilhelm stressed, frustrated, and extremely miserable - and that's without even mentioning the massive sexuality crisis lurking under the surface. He turns to camshows to help take the edge off, and maybe explore some of those repressed feelings a little bit further.
It was never meant to lead to an all-consuming obsession, falling in love, and a whole load of shit hitting the fan.

Summary
“What tattoo were you thinking of anyway?”
“Okay, right, so…” Wilhelm straightens up, pulling himself back into the conversation. He squeezes his eyes shut for a moment as though trying to concentrate. “Right. So this was my first thought, in big letters all down this arm: ‘Fuck The Monarchy’.”
Simon bursts out laughing.

Summary
Author's summary:
The first time he hears it, he thinks he’s just imagining the sound of his name being shouted in the distance. But then it comes again and immediately before Simon even turns he recognizes the voice. He experiences his second heart attack of the week when he sees Wilhelm racing wildly after the car, shouting his name.
Simon’s eyes widen and he turns quickly back to the front, staring at the road in front of them as his mind races in tumultuous directions.
What is he doing? Why is he doing this?
They’ve already done this back and forth, so many times. He’s already cried all that’s left of him, felt the pain of longing and heartsickness so deep like it’s been embedded into his skin, like it’s been wrapped around his bones, the words inked into the ribs around his heart.
